BOTH p, REPLIES RECEIVED,
Great Britain and Germany Agree to
..~ Arbitration Proposal.

Washington, Jan. 7.-Secretary Hay
has received ;, the British answer to
President Castros last proposal rela.
tive to arbltration.. It is assumed that
the British note reflects the views OF
the German government, as the allies
nave been acting in harmony so far.
The note is interlocutory, but in sub.
stance states that if Venezuela wishes
conference with a view to submitting
the differences between the two coun.
tries to arbitration Great Britain will
accede. The conditions attached vary
slightly from the original British prop
osition, but in the Judgment of officials
here the differences between the allies
and Venezuela in respect to arbitra.
ton are much diminished and there is
warrant for the expectation that the
case will now surely go to The Hague.
The next step will be a reply from
President Castro.
Later in the day separate response
to President Castros last proposal
came from Germany. In many respects
it was similar to that from Great Brit
ain. Germany's answer, like that of
Great Britain, has been sent to Presi.
dent Castro through the intermediary
of United States Minister Bowen at
Caracas. If the later conditions sug.
gested by the two allies are accepted
by Castro, and the hope among officials
here is that they may be, it is expected
that meeting will be held in Wash.
ington between Minister Bowen, rep.
resenting the government of Vene.
zuela, and the ambassadors of Great
Britain, Germany and the allies to
prepare preliminaries by which the ar.
bitration shall proceed.

WRECK OF NORWEGIAN BARK
4. PRINCE ARTHUR ON THE
/ PACIFIC COAST.
TWO OF THE CREW ESCAPE
Vessel Ran into Breakers and Was
Soon Hard and Fast on the Rocky
Shore Near Ozette, Wash.-Believed

for Tatoosh Island and Sailed Blind
g. ly to fIer Fate.

Iy to tier Fate.
Port Townsend, Wash, Jan. T.
News of the wreck of the Norwegian
bark Prince Arthur, and the death by
drowning of eighteen of the crew was
received during the day. The Prince
Arthur was bound from Valparaiso for
British Columbia to load lumber. On
the night of Jan. the vessel ran into
breakers and was soon hard and fast
on the rocky shore. The scene of the
disaster is about two miles south of
Ozette, on the Washington coast, if-
teen miles from Cape Flattery. This
is precisely the position in which the
German bark Flotbek was rescued by
tugs in the winter of 1900. AS the
Umatilla light vessel lies about three
miles off shore from Ozette, it is be-
lieved that the Prince Arthur mistook
the lightship for Tatoosh Island and
sailed eastward, believing she was
entering the Straits instead of running
blindly to her fate. Of the twenty
members of the Prince Arthur's crew
only two were saved and they were
nearly exhausted when they were
washed ashore. The bodies of eighteen
drowned seamen are being buried by
ranchers and Indians living near the
scene of the disaster as they come
ashore.
); Although OZette is but thirteen miles
from Neah Bay. news of the wreck
was received by way of East Clallam,
having been brought out by mail car
rier over a twenty-fve-mile trail Ow-
ing to the inaccessible location of
Ozette, only meagre details are OBJ
tainable.
The Prince Arthur was an iron bark
OF 1909 tons built at Birkenhead in
1859. She was formerly called the
Hoghton Head.
