Puerto Cabello, Dec. 24.-This port
has been effectively bleekaded since
Monday. The blockade is being ems
forced against. vessels Of all national
tiles.
Caracas, Dec. 2, The port OF Coro
which is surrounded on the land BY
the revolutionists, is not blocIaded.
In Caracas this fact is believed to
mean that the British and German
fleets are working in harmony with
the revolutfonists and not blockading
Coro. in order to allow the free en-
trance of Dutch schooners from Gu
racoa bringing arms and ammunition
to the rebels. President Castro left
the capital today for La Victoria,
where the revolntionists, under Cen
eral Matos, were recently defeated by
government forces.
La Guaira, Dec. 24.-The Red ID
line steamer Caracas will not be per-
mitted to enter Puerto Cabello. She
will be Obliged to land the remainder
of her cargo at Willemstad, Curacao.
All viii Be Boarded.
All mail steamers reaching here
after Dee. 80 win be boarded from the
blockading squadron and neutral pas
sengers and the mails will be sent
ashore under flag of truce. No ex.
eeptions to this ruling in the matter
of nationality will be made.

Would Take Too Much Time.

Another reason that animates these
cabinet officers in this inclination to
ward acceptance is their conviction
that an inordinate length of time
would be consumed if the issue IS
taken before The Hague tribunal. The
machinery is sufficient but ponderons
and difficult to put in motion. First
there must be arranged basis Of ar
bitration, then arbitrators be selected
by the parties TO the case. and these
in turn mus choose an umpire or UNI.
pires. and while this is going on the
blockade would continue, with its ever
present danger of active hostiities
and bloodshed that might render nuga.

the other hand, if the president un.
dertakes the settlement, he can ge'
rid Of all red tape and start the work
Of arbitration within a few days.

Denied Himself to Callers.

The meeting was prolonged to more
than two hours. All the members
were present except Secretary Moody,
who is out ef the city. Secretary
Root was the first to arrive at the ex.
eeutive offices. He entered the presi-
dents Office shortly after 10 O'Clock.
The president denied himself to all
callers and remained in consultation
with the secretary Of war until the
arrival of the other members. Secre-
tary Hay brought to the meeting prac-
tically nothing new relating TO the
situation. No response has been re-
eeived to the presidents original SIG
gestion to the powers that they con
sent to the reference of the Vena-
zuelan controversy to the arbitration
of The Hague tribunal, and no formal
request had been received that the
president act as arbitrator of the diff
ficulty. That such a request will he
received formally and officially is now
practically assured.
Some Opposed to Hague Tribunal.
1t is known that now some members
of the cabinet are opposed to re-
ferring the matter to The Hague tri-
bunal for these reasons:
In the first place. they have no de-
sire to submit the Monroe doctrine
to the arbitrament of any non-Ameri-
can tribunal, not even excepting the
august and eminently fair tribunal Of
The Hague. They very much prefer
that if this doctrine is to be the sub
ject of arbitration, if it is to be even
brought in incidentally, that American
influences shall pass on it. Not that
the fairness of The Hague arbitrators
is impeached, but as most of them
represent European and monarchical
interests, it is realized that their
training may De regarded as unsympa-
thetic where they are required to deal
with such an essentially American
subject as the Monroe doctrine. 1t is
true that on its face the arbitration
proposal contains nothing that indi-
Gates that this doctrine is to be at
tackled, but so complex and numerous
are the questions which will come be
fore the arbitration that it is appre-
hended here that the famous doctrine
tcarcely can be kept from consider
