Details of Answer Withheld.

The details of Castro's answer Will
not be published here in advance of
its reception by the European allied
powers. In fact, it may be withheld
entirely from pu~ncation on the
ground that it really belongs to those
powers.
As the answer which is being pre-
pared at the state department for
transmission to Europe is quite long
and win undoubtedly require careful
consideration by the foreign offices
at London, Berlin and Rome, it is not
expected that any further steps to-
ward final settlement can be taken
for day or two.
Gives General Satisfaction.
The feeling here, however. based
on the knowledge of Castro's posi-
ton. is that his answer practically
clears the way for the submission of
the case to arbitration. The answer
has given great satisfaction here.
This Notes Some Exceptions.
Inasmuch as certain European pub
licists have taken exception to the eff
forts of the United States to bring
about arbitration between Venezuela
and the alltes as Il violation of all the
traditions and rules of international
intercourse. the attention of one of the
most eminent United States represen-
tatives at The Hague conference-one
of the men who framed The Hague
convention itself-was directed to the
criticisms. He very promptly cleared
away the misunderstanding on this
point by pointing to article ~, of The
Hague convention as justification of
the attitude of the United States.
Article That He Cited.
This article reads: THE signatory
powers consider it their duty. if a seri-
Dus dispute threatens to break out be-
tween two or more of them, to re-
mind these latter that the permanent
court is open to them. Consequent
ly they declare that the fact of re-
minding the conflicting parties of the
provision of the present convention.
and the advice given to them, in the
highest interests of peace, to have re-
course to the permanent court, can
only be regarded as friendly action"
Some Clause and the Doctrine.
The paragraph was proposed by
France, and singularly enough it was
opposed principally by the United
CIdIeS. yet Tie OIilt1 oIdIcS IL NIc
first of the nations to avail of its pro-
visions. The reason for the opposi-
tion of our delegates was Il fear on
their part that it would seem to be
a bestowal of power upon European
countries to Intervene in American af-
fairs and in manner an infringe
ment of the Monroe doctrine. The
French delegates were exceedingly
anxious to carry the paragraph. how
ever, and they finally succeeded in
quieting the opposition of the United
States delegated through the reserva-
ton by the latter, of the right to
deal with American affairs in accord
ance with Cur established doctrines.
This was thought to safeguard the
Monroe doctrine, though it is held here
that it only recorded an opinion of the
United States delegates, and did not
bind The Hague tribunal as a whole.

FOUNDED ON A "PATBRNAL" IDEA
Which Is Too Much for the Head of

Washington, Dec. 31.-At the meet
ing of the Academy of Sciences yester-

it may be seen how the amount of
money originally paid in. or the value
of the assets at any time owned. COM
pares with the par value of all bonds
and stocks issued. Knapp said he ven
tured to doubt the soundness of the
argument that publicity would prevent
stock watering.
Proposition That Is Not Proved.
He held it improved that the exceS-
sive issue of corporate securities was a
source of such danger as TO excite pub
lie alarm and said he was YET to be
convinced that enforced publicity
would not be harmful exercise of
public authority. He said in part: Il
maintain that the stockholders. as such.
is not benefited by corporate publicity,
and would be harmed rather than
helped by its enforcement 1t is one
thing for the stockholder to have
knowledge of the concern whose shares
he holds: it is quite another thing to
