WASHINGTON, March % The
United States government has shown
its policy toward Venezuela In the in
structions lately sent to Minister Bow
en- at Caracas and which have just
become known here. They plainly In
form President Castro that this gov
eminent insists upon an arbitration of
the asphalt and other controversies.
Mr.. Bowen has served this notice on
Castro Minister Bowen's instructions
say that he shall inform Castro of this
governments demand for arbitration
and also that If the South American
executive refuses to consider arbitra-
ton, as he has done thus far, Minister
Bowen shall inform him that the Unit
ed States government will take its own
course in gaining its desires In Vene-
Zuelan matters. What this course will
be has not been decided. or, nj least,
not made public, but 1t will undonbted-
ly be necessary to make Il display Of
force il Castro cannot he made to come
to terms otherwise
The United States government has al
ways asked for an arbitration Of the
asphalt question. President Castro at
first entered into negotiations to this
end with Minister Bowen. \ month or
so ago however. he broke off with all
of the foreign ministers in Caracas by
leaving the capital for nearly three
weeks. During that time the asphalt
question, with all others, was at n
standstill. The patience of this gov
eminent was severely taxed at the
| time. and the sending of Instructions
what practically amounts to an ulti-
matum is the result OF Castro's atti-

In the opinion of many government
officers the only thing that can he done
to make Castro come TO terms is %

Atlantic fleet is at Guantanamo, and a
number of vessels could be sent from
there to La Guayra within thirty-six
hours.
Minister Bowen has cabled the state
department that President Castro has
held imprisoned at Caracas for seven
months five Dutch sailors. II Is pre-
sumed that il is considered serious
matter in Caracas and likely to involve
Castro in trouble with Holland.

were insulting in the extreme. One
consisted of young lady in pink

A Washington special says the pub

held its first meeting for the purposes
of organization, and will at once set
tie down to the business of consider
ing some important matters of legisla
ton. Representative Joseph NJ Dix
on, who is a member of the commit
tee, says that the chairman, Mr. Lac
ey. has in accordance with recommen-
dationS of the department. prepared
three bills for prompt consideration.
All these bills will doubtless prove of
great interest to all the public land
states of the west. The first bill to be
considered provides for the repeal of
the timebr and stone act. which, at
the last session was reported upon ad-
versely by the committee, but owing
to the continued agitation of the re-
puted land frauds in the west. it now
seems likely that favorable report
will be made. The second bill sched.
uled for consideration provides for
the decrease in number of acres GOV.
cred by the desert land entries from
800 to 160 with the additional pro.
viso that patents shall not issue until
after entrymen have established resi-.
dence upon the land. The third bill
to which allusion has been made, and
which has the endorsement of the pres
ident, seeks to abolish the office of re
ceiver in the local land offices.
