FrLLER JJSTfCE BREwLE.
The Latter Confirms the Eeport-The se-
I,ctions Taken Seem to Indicate That
Her Claims Are Well Founded.

WASHINGTON. ID. c.. Jan. 2S.-Justice
Brewer. Of the Supreme Court, to-day
practically confirmed the report that
chief Justice Fuller and himself had been
selected as arbitrator on behalf OF Nene-
zuela ia the matter OF the settlement or
the boundary line dispute between that
country and Great Britain.
The formal signing Of the treaty mas
net yet been done. but Sir Julian Paunce-
fote. the British Ambassador, and senior
Andrade, tho Venezuelan Minister nave
been in daily conference. and 1t IS UNDER
stood that the convention is now ready
for signatures.
While these conferences have been III
progress various matters of detail IL Is
said. have been considered and determined
On by the parties to the controversy one
of which was the choice by Venezuela OF
Chief Justice Fuller and Justice Brewer
as its arbitrator.
THE INFERENCE.
The selection of Justice Brewer, who,
for year or so has been the head oil
the commission appointed by president
Cleveland to make am investigation OF
the boundary line question for the United
States. is accepted as proof that the con-
illusions reached by the commission,
which. as yet. have been withheld from
the public. are that Nenezuela's claims
are well founded. If it were otherwise
il is claimed Venezuela would not com
nit her case 20 an unfricndly arbitra-
tor.
Sir Julian pauncef0te and Senior An
drado. expect to complete the boundary
arbitration treaty, and sign IT IN time
10 send the Venezuelan copy 10 Caracas
for ratification by the steamer leaving
New York for Ia Gudyra week from
to-day. The delay IN the negotiations mas
been caused altogether by the conceded
dosirabillty OF naming the arbitrator IN
the draft. Instead Of providing for their
subsequent selection. IL was decided that
considerable time might bee saved in TINS
way. which would also present the ddni-
t.oual advantage OF making known 10
both the contracting parties who the I'M
diyidual arbitrator would be before the
exchange OF Publications. This suggestion
which came from Venezuela received the
nrompt acquiescenCe Of Lord Salisbury
and it is understood that the four repre-
seatativcs have already been named.
