claims which is now to be submitted to arnitra-

II is thought here that the seizure Of the Ossun
by the Germans due TO the enforced ser
vice of that vessel under the Venezuelan flag,
but the French nationality Of the Ossun Is con-
sidered here to be unquestionable.
Leading French officials openly express gratif-
cation at the fact that France has secured
through diplomacy what other powers were
seeking to obtain through force.
IT is learned from an authoritative source that
the French claims which will be submitted to
the coming arbitration amount to S1O.Seoeoo
This includes s., 100000 demanded for the prac-
ficaI destruction Of the French railroad running
from the Gulf Of Maracafbo TO the mountains.
The recent protocol restricted arbitration 10
damages occurring prior to ls99, but as the ran
road was begun prior TO 1899, and was con-
rinued through the recent revolution, France
will insist that the claim be arbitrated under

gate 100000, but it is believed that these also

and il is understood that the arbitration will re-
suit in Venezuela allowing France to collect the
duties at one or two ports until her claims
paid which may raise further issues if all the
Venezuelan ports are occupied forciby by other
powers
Public and newspaper opinion here tends TO
sympathize with Venezuela as being the victim
of undue severity on the part of strong powers
The Tennis says:

the Monroe Doctrine in this affair. it may be

Manila. April 24.-Lieutenant Colone!
Frank D. Baldwin. who is operating
against the Moros on the island of Min
danao, telegraphs that the capture OF
Sultan Pualo's fort has had a most
salutary effect. The dattos are sub
hitting. White flags are taking the
places of the red battle flags. The
sultan of Annudtbak urges that time
be given him in which to give up the
aSSaSSinS of the American soldiers n
says that the advance of the Ameri-
cans will mean "bristling cannon and
impossible barriers with God judging
the right"
Colonel Baldwin has received orders
to suspend operations against the
dattos.
General George W. Davis in COM
mand at Zamboanga, island of Min
danao. believes that the majority of
the dattos are friendly and hat the
have not had time TO cooperate. He
thinks their alarm may cease and that
practically a ~lloodless victory has
been achieved.
