Protocols Signed by All
Powers Interested.
LITTLE CHANGE IN TERMS
Court to Meet September I, Ieo3-De-
cision to Be Given in
Six Months.

The Hague protocols submitting the
Question as to whether the blocllading
powers shall be given preferential treat
ment in the settlement OF claims against
Venezuela were signed las night at the
British embassy. Afterward there were
signed the conventions providing for the
settlement of the allies claims by the
several commissions which are to meet
this summer il Caracas. Little remains
to be done in Washington TO conclude
the entire dispute over Venezuela s
debts.
The terms cf the protocols were little
changed from the original draft made
by Mr.. Bowen, the Venezuelan pleni
potentiary. The one change of impor-
lance is a distinct victory for Venezuela.
1t precludes any power from obtaining
preferential treatment, If The Hague
does not give such treatment to the
blockadinS powers.
AS The Times announced yesterday the
protocols were drawn in English and
there was one for each of the blockading
powers, but the protocols were identical
in terms Mr. Bowen signed with each Of
the representatives OF the powers. The
provisions of the protocols other than
the change given are as follows:
