Tsual1t a Lesson In Diplomacy
London, March 23.--The Associated
Press learned today at the office Of
be counsel of the foreign bondhOlders
that the agreement between the Vene.
welan government and the British and
German bondholders adjusting and
oonsoidating the exterior debt, about
tgS6OO. OOO, has alreday been signed by
the representatives Of Venezuelan and
tbe Great Britain bondholders The
agreement is now on its way to Lon.
don for the signature Of the representa-.
uyes Of the British bondholders.
With reference to a dispatch from
Washington reporting that objection
was raised TO the agreement, Secretary
Cooper, Of the counsel for the foreign
bOndoholders, said he considers the
article 6 OF the Washington protocol
Of 1893 absolutely justified and adds;
During the negotiation we found
President Castro to be perfectly bus,
inesslike and animated by desire to
effect a settlement" |
Mr. Cooper poiIted out, however.
that the signing Of IA agreement was
only a step toward settlement, since
The document contains clauses relative
10 other subjects, the provisions which
Il was desired to keep secret, but
which, he said, must first be fulfilled
before a settlement with the Anglo
German bondholders can become an
accomplished fact.

AyV AIDED }25 AND COSTS.
George Dsssssr sssd ths sesviil e
 for Loss Of n Arn.

George Brodelr was to-day award ed damages of $25 and costs against the HcQyill Manufacturing Co for the loss of his left arm. Brodeur claimed that he was ordered to repair loose belt which conveyed power to the machine he was employed on. While putting on the belt his hand was caught in 1t and he was whirled around the shafting, his left arm was torn from his body and his left foot is partly paralyxed. Judge Thayer's memorandum is as follows:
 It was not the duty of the plaintiff to repair the belt in question, and it Is 80 alleged in the complaint. A belt fxer was hired by the defendant to keep such belts in repair4 Morris, the foreman of the department in which the plaintiff worked, stood in place of the defendant, but he did not direct the plaintiff to repair the belt as al- legged in complaint. After the evil dence wns closed, the plaintiff changed the allegations and claimed that Dayton, the foreman, directed the plaintiff to repair the belt. The plaintin is contradicted by Morris as to prior order claimed by the plaint- in and by several witnesses as to what he told them as to the way he was injured. find that Dayton did not order him to repair the belt, but if he did, and neglected to tell the plaintiff of the danger. such neglect would not be the negligence of the defendant. Judgment is for the plaint- lff to recover nominal damages of $25 and costs.
 The suit of Henry Mattoon and his wife Emma against the E. H. Towle Co for 5000 damages was also de cided. Mrs MattoOn Twas awarded damages of $125 and costs. The plaintiffs were driving on the Water town road when their horse was scared by an automobile in charge of an employe of the defendant and Mrs MattOon a thrown out and in- jured in the back.
