Washington, March 24.-In the alb.
sence Of the Belgian minister, Baron
Won Moncheur, nothing is known at
the Belgian legation regarding the
reference of President Morales in the
dispatches from San Domingo to the
Belgian claims which, the president
says. are being pressed. Several days
ago Raron Moncheur received from
his government cablegram asking if
any investigation was to be made by
, an American commission into the
Dominican situation. 1t is supposed
that, in view of the senate's refusal
to deal with the Dominican matter,
the Belgian government feels it is
forced to pursue it's own course.
Other European powers also, while
willing to await the negotiations of
Secretary Hay, regard the attitude of
the senate as SO opposed to the pro-
posed course of the government that
they fear they will be obliged to act

Street cars did not run during the
funeral service and traffic on the
streets was almost entirely stopped.
Everywhere flags were at half staff
and buildings draped with long black
streamers attested to the presence of
a great universal bereavement. March

French Official Opinion of Venezuelan
Dispute.

Paris, March 24-In the course of
Ambassador Porters weekly visit to
the foreign office he conferred with
Foreign Minister Delcasse relative to
the anco-Venezuelan situation and
it was disclosed that the French gov
ernment considers that the emer-
gency Of the situation has been en-
tirely relieved as a result of the in
definite postponement Of the decision
of the Caracas court in the case Of
the French Gable company. The fu-
ture course is expected to be slow
owing to the necessity for carrying
on negotiations by mail. The authori-
ties here share the belief concerning
the. hopelessness of the present re
gime in Venezuela and incline to the
view that sooner or later some unit
ed means may have to be taken to
ensure respect for foreign interests
