Effect Saturday. E''' -
Washington, Dec. 22.-President
Roosevelt has proposed to the allied
powers that the. Venezuelan dispute
. be submitted to. the arbitration of
The Hague tribunal. The powers have
replied with q counter proposal that
President Roosevelt himself yarbitrate
the issues. - ,..
These we're the developments over
night in the Venezuelan matter and
they seem to justify the prediction
made in these dispatches that the
critical point has been passed.
President Roosevelt does not wish
to act as arbitrator in this dispute, for
as such, it is felt here, he would be at
once Judge, jury and constable and
would be under the moral obligation
to execute his own judgment. The
president feels that reference to The
Hague tribunal would vastly strength
en- the cause of arbitration.
Still, rather than see the present
dispute proceed to extremes, it is
probable the president will reluctantly
assume the duties of arbitrator. 1t is
fully realized that any decision rem
dered by him in that capacity would
be sure to bring him the enmity of one
or the other of the parties to the con-
troversy and this fact was pointed
out to the president early in the week
by leading senator who had been
called into consultation. Nevertheless,
to prevent bloodshed and the destruc-
tion of property and interference with
great commercial interests that would
result in loss, it is believed that the
president would assume the charge,
providing his own view cannot prevail.
Venezuela has been told through
Minister Bowen that the president
would welcome reference of the dis
pute to The Hague tribunal. While
no direct reply has been received it
is not doubted that the reply would be
favorable if the other parties consent
ed to such reference.

wster Supply Short.

To the patrons OF the La unta
Water Works:
Owing to the scarcity Of water
in our city we'll and river, its nat
ural supply, the city council feel
duty bound to call the consumers
attention to the fact that serious
problem of supplying necessary
water now contronts us, and for
that reason the council has determ-
med to ask the consumers to modi-
fy the irrigation hours. All those
consumers living west OF the CEN
ter line OF Santa Fe avenue are
allowed to use water for irrigation
between the hours OF o'clock and
7 o'clock a. M, and E O'Clock and
7 O'Clock p. m. Those consumers
living east of the center line OF
Santa Fe avenue are allowed to
use water for irrigation between
the hours OF O'Clock and 8
o'clock a. m, and 7 O'Clock and 8
o'clock p. m. We have made ar
rangements with the electric light
plant whereby they will blow the
"Curfew" whistle upon changing
hours. 1t is hoped the patrons
will abide by this new rule until
our critical time has past. We
trust all patrons will also be as
careful and economical as possible
in the use of water for whatever
purpose, and in every way avoid
unnecessary waste.

Our Holidays.

The Fourth of July, measured
by any standard. is the great
American holiday. 1t is observed
in every state and territory and the
District Of Columbia. Its celebra-
tion in our insular possessions is
becoming more general each year.
In all the great cities OF other
countries the American residents,
with such tourists as happen to be
there, usually gather for some rec
ognition Of the day.
In this northern hemisphere no
more fortunate date for a holiday
could 'have been hit upon. IL
seems like the portal through
which the heated term Of the year
enters, just as Labor day in early
September may be regarded as the
end Of summer.
By the Fourth of July the schools
have all closed, and the season for
vacation has begun. In many
parts Of the country, too, this hoii.
day seems to mark what is almost
an intermission between the spring
work and the harvesting Of the
summer crops. 1t thus happens
that almost everybody likes to
celebrate Independence day, Tor
reasons aside from the worthy i'm
pulses Of patriotism. To use an
over worked phrase, the Cont
mental Congress unvitt,ngly chose
the "psyehological moment" for
such = holiday ~ this would natur-
ally become.

end most Of them Thanksgiving

LOWER COURT REVERSED.
Ruling Regarding the Real Estate
Litigation Of Mrs. L. A. Godfrey.

The Supreme Court of the United States
Monday afternoon decided an interesting
case affecting real estate in the District of
Columbia. The suit was originally brought
by Mrs. Lily Alys Godfrey against B. H
Warner & Co. and Stephen A. Dutton to
recover possession Of real estate at the
corner of Connecticut avenue and 18th
street, of which she was defrauded through
the false representations of Dutton, who
was subsequently sentenced to the penten-
tiary.
When the case was first decided the COM
plant was dismissed. SO far as ,Messrs. b.
H. Warner & Co., who purchased the prop
erty from Dutton, under a misapprehension,
We're concerned. Subsequent proceedings
were taken, however, and on June Is, 1862
Justice Barnard of the District Supreme
Court ordered that the property be restored
to Mrs. Godfrey upon payment to b. III.
Warner & Co. of the sum of S10.455. The
latter firm took the case to the Court of
Appeals of the District of Columbia and
finally to the Supreme Court of the United
States, which yesterday rendered its deci-
sion. The ruling ordering the restoration
of the property to Mrs. Godfrey was re-
versed, with costs, and the decree dismissing
Mrs Godfrey's bill of complaint, SO far
as B. H. Warner & Co. are concerned, was
ordered reinstated.
