Washington. Feb. 19.-The Rudlof

by American citizens against the Vene-
zuelan government. and had It not
been settled would have come up for
adjudication before the mixed commits
sion provided for in the protocol sign
cd here Tuesday by Secretary HAY
and Mr.. Bowen. The decision is a
source of intense satisfaction to the
officials here. The contract price of
the proposed market was 500. 900. the
claim for like amount. and the judg-
ment Of the court shows that II was
granted in full Considerable work
has been done by the American con-
cessionaries toward the construction
OF the proposed market when a change
or administration occurred in Vene-
zueia. Then the concession to Rud
Ion was annulled because OF the OBJ
lection Of the government to having
such an establishment controlled by
foreigners. Probably not more than
half the amount of the claim allowed
had been expended when the work on
the market was stopped by the gov,
ernment's action.
