WASHINGTON LETTER.
From our Reg ular Correspondent.

From our Reg ular Correspondent.
TO the intense relief of prr>
sons familiar with the intpri-
or workings of tie White
House and the State Depart.
ment the President has yield
ell tOa strong pressure bron't
to bear on him by the Se,re-
tarips uf State and War and
has foregone the pleasure of
urbitratirg the differences be
tween Venezuela and the fnr-
eign powers. The invitation
OF Germany and Great Brit.
ain to arbitrate their rlaims
40 hattered the President
that for some time his bet
ter Judgment was obsrured
and it seemed that, in spite
OF the protests OF Messrs Hay
and Root and manv Of the
republican sena tors,he would
accept the position. So en-
phatic, however, we're the ar.
gunlents against such a
course, almost every republi.
can newspaper protesting,
that he was Obliged to yield
and it now appears that the
troubles of Venezuela will be
adjudicated by the Hague
tribunal.
Through the enterprise OF
a metropolitan daily paper
the terms of the Cuban trea.
ty have been made public and
haveexcited both admiration
and criticism. To those mem
hers of Congress who repre-
sent the manufacturing inter
ehts of the East the conven-
tiOn affords the utmost "a tis
faction, but to those who rep
resent agricultural ronstitu>
} encies it is the occasion OF
worry and anxiety. Follows
ing the usual custom of his
party Secretary Hay h a E
secured tie most signal adj
vantages for the manufactu
ring and other vested inter.
ests, to the disadvantage oI
the ;agriculturist-. While
manufactured silk, watches
umbrellas and a long list o|
similar products secure a con
cesSion of 40 per cent. from
Cuban duties such important
agricultural productions as
f1aur, wheat products, corn
} and it's products. beef and
other meats. etc, receive but
the regulation 90 per cent. 1t
is tue that cotton and WOO
IN the raw state receive a spe
cial discount of 30 per cent,
but, a. has b"enpointed out
by a western republican, Gu

cotton and woolen goods Il
discount Of 40 per cent. is al

yention, which will permit
New FOundland fish and bait
tn compete with the New En-
gland industries, and to the
Knsson treaty with France
which will permit French
silks and notions to compete
with numerous New England
manufacturers. In this sitna
.tion Senator Lodg" finds him
self in a serious dilemma. His
friendship for the President
prompts him to vote for the
Cuban treaty, but his seat in
the Senate would be imperil-
led by the neglect OF any op-
portunity to defeat t h
French and Npw England
treaties. Under these circum-
stances the Senator is doing
n great deal of thinking but
it is not talked for publira-
tion.
A rumOr which ia the orca-
sion CT serious misgivings to
the friends of the President
has leaked ont from t h e
White House. 1t is to the ef-
feet that Mr.. Roosevelt is se
riously contemplating the ap
p0lntment OF the notorious
Billy Lorimer. Congressman
elect. to the position OF Spcre
tary OF the Department of
Commerce and Labor which
it is assumed will be created
this session. 1t has long been
| the Presidents intention to
appoint Secretry Cortleyou
to this important post b u t
strong pressure is bel n q
brought to hear hy the ILL.,
nois machine whi"h claims
that 1t has received no con-
si1eration in return for its
support Of the President,
The claim is undoubtedly
true, and, to the credit o'
Mr.. Roosevelt. it may be said
tina the unsavory reputation
of The Illinois machine h Il
made him exceedingly chary
about favoring it with pat
ronage, tut as the time fol
the national convention Hp>
proaches, Mr.. Roosevelt be-
comes less independent a n d
the Illinois delegation is a
powerful one. Their support
would prove much mort effee
tual than any Mr.. Cortlpyou
could deliver as his whole in
Auerce, if he has any, is in
New York, the support o1
which state Mr.. Roosevelt bt
lieves he is sure OF.
1t has remained for Gprma
ny and Great Britain to force
the republicans to declare
their position in regard to
