New York, Oct. Sit is denied again
today that Comptroller Grout and Pfesi-

voluntarily withdraw from the fusion
ticket. The complication that has arisen
over the acceptance by them of the demo
cratic Endorsement remains the major fea-
ture OF the political situation in Greater
New York and the fight for and against
them is being actively waged.
From democratic sources came the sug-
gestion that the position OF Grout and
torues could be strengthened by withdraw
ing entirely from the fusionist movement
and going over entirely to the democratic
party, and Leader Murphy OF Tammany,
who managed the coup under which they
we're indorsed was urged to see Groui aud
arrange the matter.

BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.

The Hague, Oct s.-Wawne MacVeagh,
senior counsel for the United States, con-
tinuing his argument today before the
Venezuelan arbitration committee, decided
the question before the tribunal was one
of ethics, namely, whether or not the war
against Venezuela was just and necessary.
He maintained that the complaints of
Great Britain we're merely pretext for
war, and that Venezuela had right on her
side when she complained of the dispatch
Of British vessel from London to the
Caribbean sea to deliver the cargo of arms
to the insurgent general, Matos, through
the intermediary of agents at Trinidad.
Counsel said he found no precedent in
history for such a purely financial war,
and he declared it was undertaken by
Great Britain and Germany for the pro.
