that the heating stove was still warm

loss which win be keenly felt. The
newspapers Judge NJ Xola's role In the
Dreyfus affair according to political
bias NJ. Zola was born in Paris April

II is row said that Nine. Zola was
informed Of the death Of her husband
before she left her. She at first refused
to believe the news and was ter
ribly affected. She did not wish to
leave the house but the physicians
finally persuaded her 10 allow herself
TO be removed to the hospital.
A large crowd assembled In front or
the lola residence tonight. Among the
callers at the house were almost all the
literary celebrities of Paris.
The only new facts recorded is the
result Of the analysis of the blood Of
NJ. Zola, which shows the presence Of
carbonic acid.
Estimates Of the deceased novelist
generally follow party lines In the judy

most OF the newspapers agree that he
was one OF the glorles Of French liter

A Losing Game.


Venezuela's yearly imports are only
little over $4,000, 600. Duties on
these would be insufficient to pay the
interest, to saying nothing of the
principal, of her European debts.
And with blockaded ports there will
be practically no imports on which to
collect duties.
But evens;s such duties could be col
lected, the European creditors are
likely to lose more than they will gain
by their bullying policy. Vene-
zuela's imports are mainly European,
most OF them being from Great Britain.
The action of the British and German
naval forces against Venezuela has so
inhamed the Venezuelans that it will
be long time before they will con-
sent to buy goods again from either
England or Germany, and even if
those countries could collect from
Venezuela the full amount of their
claims, which they will be unable to do
forcibly, they would lose much more
in the trade which the VenezueIans
would withhold from them.

REFERRED TO The HAGUE.
President Roosevelt Will Not Be
the Arbitrator.

Washington, December 26.-Presi-
dent Roosevelt will not be the arbitra-
tor Of the Venezuelan controversy.
The whole vexatious subject will be
referred to The Hague Tribunal for
adjudication.
Epitomized, this was the situation
as it had resolved itself at the con-
clusion of the Cabinet meeting today.
The meeting was not so long as the
sessions of the Cabinet usually are.
All the members except Secretary Root
were present. The Venezuelan ques-
tion was the principal and practically
the only topic of general concern under
consideration. Secretary Hay present
ed the net results of his cable cor
respondence with the Governments at
London, Berlin, Rome and Caracas.
In accordance with the suggestion
made several days ago by President
Roosevelt, through Secretary Hay,
President Castro, of Venezuela, was
reported to have agreed to submit the
differences between his Government
and the European Powers to the arbi-
tration of the Tribunal at The Hague.
The European Powers not only con-
sented to submit the controversy to
arbitration, but, while they had ex-
pressed a preference for an arbitration
to be conducted by President Roose-
velt, they had assented to his sugges-
tion that the matter be referred to
The Hague.
The presentation OF the case met
the hearty approval Of the members Of
the Cabinet. No fear is expressed by
the Administration that the Monroe
doctrine will be brought into the con-
troversy in any manner that might re-
suit in any embarrassing situation for
the United States. Secretary Hay is
preparing a note to the Powers, in
which the qualification of this Govern
ment is expressed for the course agreed
upon by them in settlement of the
pending difficulties.
No intimation is given of the condi-
tons which may have been imposed
by the European Powers or by Presi-
dent Catsro precedent to the arbitra-
tion. It is known that Great Britain
was willing to submit the subject to
the arbitration of President Roosevelt
practically without conditions, but the
suggestion is made that one, and per-
haps two, of the other Powers involved
proposed some conditions which might
have proved embarrassing ii the other
had undertaken the responsibility of
determining the question.
It is undersood that some money
must pass, but it also is known that
the amount of cash to be required of
Venezuela before arbitration is not
nearly so large as has been stated. It is
not possible to learn either whether
the allies insist upon apologies from
Castro and, while it is assumed that
the blockade will be speedily raised,
40 arrangement to tnat end has yet
been made. The energies of the ne
gotiators are now being devoted to the
framing of what will be known as
a condition protocol, and it is hoped
that, while this class of document
does not undertake to closely define is
sues to be presented, it will still con-
tain a provision for the ssremoval Of
the blockade.
