WASHINGTON, Sept. 27.-A final de-
cision has been reached by the arbitra.
tors who are to determine the British
Guiana Venezuelan boundary line as to
the fifth arbitrator or umpire who is to

only in case the arbitrator fail to agree.
An agreement was reached without the
necessity Of calling on the Swedish SOW
