AMERICAN CHARGE
WAS NOT TO BLAME

Washington, Feb. 17.-Some light is
thrown upon the unpleasant reference
made by Mr.. Haggard, the British min
lister at Caracas, to United States
Charge Russell and published in the
British Blue Book yesterday by a naval
officer now stationed at Washington.
who was in Venezuelan waters and
frequently at the American legation
during the period referred to by Mr..
Haggard. Without going into details
it appears in this officers statement
that by trying to assist some British
citizens in their distress without first
losing the time necessary to hunt up
and confer with the minister. the
American legation incurred the i'll viii
of Mr.. Haggard and the difficulty got
to be rather personal so that all the
exchanges between the two ministers
have since been of a most formal char
acter.

FRENCH VIEW OF SETTLEMENT
OF THE VENEZUELAN DIFFICULTY

On the whole, however. the Temps con-
siderS the settlement to be a triumph for
the cause of International peace and a
distinct recognition of arbitration by the
great military and naval powers, and ex-
presses the belief that the British min
istry was fortunate in reaching a settle
ment before parliament reopened-
The Journal DeS DebatS gives prom1-
nence to lengthy London dispatch on
the termination of the Venezuelan incl
dent and the British-German alliance,
which says: I'm spite of popular hos
tility to the alliance. the capital fact re-
mains that Germany succeeded in en-
gaging England in an alliance contem-
plating the use of the British fleet in a
war movement
Continuing, the Journal Des Debats de-
clares this is a grave departure for Bril-
ish policy. which, must be secretly con-
Sidered by the other European powers.
