Proposal.
A Possibility That a Conclusion May
Be Reached Without Applying
to the Hague.

Washington. Jan. 6.--Secretary Hay has
received the British answer to President
Castro's last proposal relative to arbitra-
ton. 1t is assumed that the British note
reflects the views Of the German govern
ment as the allies have been acting In
harmony 50 far. 80
u The note is interlocutory, but in SUBJ
stance states that if Venezuela wishes a
conference with view to submitting the
differences between the two countries to
arbitration, Great Britain will accede. The
conditions attached vary slightly from the
original British proposition, but, In the
judgment Of officials here the differences
between the allies and Venezuela in re-
spect to arbitration are much diminished,
and there Is warrant for the expectation
that the case will now surely go to The
Hague. ss~ .--'-
The next step will be a reply from Pres

Chicago, Jan. 6.--William E: Curtis in

aid says: There will be no definite trust
legislation at this session of congress, al
though there is likely to be good deal of
talk and several more propositions for
their regulation.

speet in which Senator Hoar was held
and the fact that he is the chairman OF
that committee, his bill would not receive
two votes. The Cullom bill is quite as
unpopular.

provides for practically no restraint upon
industrial combinations. but requires them
to publish their transactions has more sup
porters than any other. although, as the
president at Oyster Bay last summer au.
thorized me to state he had nothing tC
do with it, and it's author is not his repre-
sentative upon the floor. of the house. Al

was made for some reason or another tt
