Washington. Nov. 1S-The swift progress If

Aiously cordial interna tional friendships in the

South American countries have been almost at

boundary disputes, the controversy over the
territory Of Acre and similar matters. hut their
representatives in Washington have preserved
The most cordial relations at least on the sur

some pertinent comments on the whole case in

MORE SETTLEMENT TALK.
Many Erpcct It-Sch7c0b May
Not Testify.

Another postponement in the hearing before the
special examiner in the suit of bondholders for
permanent receiver of the United States Shipbuild-
ing Company announced yesterday afternoon
at the office of Samuel Untermyer, Of counsel for
the bondholders. Earlier in the day counsel in the
case said they believed the hearing would go on
this morning and continue tomorrow, but there
was an agreement to postpone the hearing to Tues
day of next week 1880 with the understand
ing that the examination of witnesses would con-
tinue on Wednesday. 1t was announced that the
postponement granted by Mr.. Untermyer at the
request Of w d. Guthrie, Of counsel for the ship
building company. 'on purely personal ana pro-
fessional grounds"
The recent delays in the hearing have convinced
many persons in Wall Street that there will ne a
settlement of the and that. even if there are
a few sessions. no startling developments in
the legal fight viii be permitted to become public
through the testimony of witnesses. The opinion
in the Street seems be general that Charles NJ.
Schwab will not have opportunity to tell his
side of the on the witness stand
At Mr.. Untermyer's office yesterday. however, it
was asserted positively that there were no negotia
lions and no suggestions OF any adjustment of the
case in any phase and that so far as concerned
Mr. Untermyer's clients the investigation would go
on 10 the end unless the defendants fit to con-
fess Judgment and consent TO the appointment of
a permanent receiver. In that case the investiga-
ton would be resumed by way of defence IN the
pending foreclosure suit.
As to the probability of Mr.. Schwab, who con-
trols the board of directors of the shipbuilding
company consentng to confess judgment at this
time, the following statement was made by a per-
son familiar with the case:
''Inasmuch Mr.. Schwab and Mr.. Pam have
been vehementy asserting their anxiety to go upon
the witness stand and. referring to the bitterness
of the situation which prevented them from doing
so up this time ii is hardly possible they would
care TO stutify themselves by confessing judgment
at this stage rather than be subjected to cross-ex
amina ton
IT was ascertaiped yesterday that the govern
ing committee of the Stock Exchange had not
taken any action to investigate the alleged untrue
statements in the shipbuIlding Companys report to
the exchange the time of the application to have
the company's securities listed. member OF the
committee said that such an investigation would
wait until the end of the hearing before the spe-
cial examiner. and. he added:

want the hearing continued and the entire case
fought out. They do not want the exchange 10
