BRITISH VENEZUELA CLAIM

New York, July IA Sun cable
from Paris says: In continuing
his argument of the British case
before the Venezuelan tribunal to.
day Sir Richard Webster present
ed the evidence of Dutch occupa-
ton Of the River Barima. the
natives being subject to Dutch
c ntrol aud the chieftains received
their badges of Office from the
Dutch authorities. In 1869 the
Da'ch authorities rem onstrated TO
the Madrid Government against
Spanish acts Of aggression, de.
claring in absolute terms that
Guy uni was Dutch property, the
Dutch having from time i'm memo.
rial possessed a post on that river.
Sir Richard quoted the Spanish
reply to this remonstrance. In
this Spain stated that acts of az
gression had not been com mitted
by the Spsnieh Governor, Centu-
rion. aud that the Dutch post at
Orinda, on the upper Essequibo,
was inaccessible to the Spaniards
because the Dutch Colony extend
ed between it and the Spanish
posts.
A continuous Governorsbip, Sir
Richard said, was during the pc
riod OF ITO 70. Some Spanish
activity, however, was directed
westward, but not toward the
Dutch coast settlements or dis.
puted territory, the Spanish pos
sessions being then limited to a
part OF the Rio Negro, Casiquiari,
upper and lower Orinoco and new
settlements ia the interior. Sir
Richard pointed out that an allu-
sion made in one of the docume 10 ts
to the abandonment of the Pome
room colony, which has been much
used In the Venezuelan case,
merely referred to the abandon
ment of cultivation, and he pro-
duced in support Of his statement
contemp oraneous maps. He re.
ferred to constant transactions be.
tween the Dutch and the natives
and to the giving of tokens of
alliance, such as hats and sticks,
to secure promises of assistance.
This reference caused an out
burst of merriment, which mo.
mentarily relieved the dullness OF
the proceedings. Several judicial
Jokes were highly appreciated.
Sir Richard concluded his speech
today by referring to Inciarti's
journey of exploration 10 l779 in
the country between the Orinoco
and Mowka, and commented on
lnciarti's map. He argued that
the country was all unknown to
the Spaniards, while the Dutch
were in possession of Mowka.
During the proceedings Professor
Martens referred to case that
had been previously cited as bear
ing on the matter under discus
sion. Sir Richard denied the ex.
istence of such a case. Martens
quietly turned to the first volume
of evidence and showed the case,
whereupon Sir Richard compli-
mented him on his extrsordina airy
memory. Although Martens Eng
lish comes slowly he has thorough
command of the entire case.

F~irepr0onng Wood.

Among the many valuable lessons
taught by the recent wal between
Spain and the United States is the i'm
portant one that a ship of war should
have as little wood in its construction
as possible, and that what there is
should be ireproof. DR.. HeXamer re-
Gently read before the Franklin Insti-
and showing how, by a comparatively
cheap n easy process, woodwork may
be rendered absolutely incombustible.
1t may be noted hat the inventor OF
the system does not seek to make
money out Of it, but gives it to the
American nation with a view to do his
country a service. Before commencing
his experiment, DR.. Hexamer laid down
certain conditions, which he considered
imperative, the chief Of which was that
to prove effective against fire the wood
must be treated, not on the surface On
ly, but through its entire mass After
trying various substances with which
to impregnate the wood, he finally
chose water glass, treating it at a later
stage with ammonium chloride, in or
der to render it %insoluble. The wood
work Is first Of all heated in an iron
c%ontainer to expel all moisture, after
which the water glass is admitted un-
der pressure, and is forced into the
inner recesses of the wood. Ammon-
ium chloride is then admitted to the
container, under the same conditions.
and the wood is finally washed in run
ming water, and slowly dried.

Dictetic Virtues OF Olive OH.

Olive oil is now being used in many
ways at one time never thought or.
Besides being largely used meuicinally,
observes the Sanitary Record. It enters
into various processes of cooking much
more extensively than it did. In mas
sage, bathing, and for numerous other
purposes, the use of this most vaiua-
bic natural food is greatly extending.
Eminent authorities have found it a
potent agent for many defects Of the
eXcretory ducts, especially the skin.
Eczema has rapidly disappeared upon
the discontinuance of starch food and
the substitution of a diet of fresh and
dried fruits, milk, eggs and olive Oil.
Taken In conjunction with a fruit diet
it's beneficial effects have frequently
been marked upon the hair, nails and
scalp, supplying as it does to the Sc
baceous glands the only substance
which they secrete when in q healthy
condition. and the absence of which
is the cause of debility of the hair,fre-
Quently ending in badness. 1t has
long been observed that those who live
upon olive oil as q common article OF
food are generally healthier than those
who do not. Its therapeutic and
prophylactic qualities are now well
known to medical men. Oil is destruc-
tive to certain forms of micro-organic
life, and it is reasonable to suppose
that they can best be eradicated from
the system by its internal use. The
use Of oil not only does this, but it re-
stores to the worn out or disease It's
sues just those elements Of repair that
its reconstruction demands.

Cloth from Pineapple Fibre.

In an article in the Popular Science
Monthly, c. R. Dodge tells US the
leaf of the pineapple contains a very
fine silky fiber that may be utilized in
the manufacture of textile fabrics. He
says: "a pineapple plant natures but
one apple in a season, and after the
harvest Of fruit the old leaves are of
no further use to the plant, and may
be removed. The leaves have the same
structural system as the agaves-that
is, they are composed of a cellular mass
through which the fibers extend, and
when the epidermis and pulpy matter
are eliminated the residue is a soft silk
like filament, tie value of which has
long been recognized. Only fifty pounds
of this fiber can be obtained from a
ton OF leaves, but, as the product would
doubtless command double the price of
