NIT to arbitration all questions pending
between the two countries"
Then he added that he begged to
present copy of the instruction which
he had received from the government
of the United States and which, it is
learned, had been prepared before
hand in Washington. AS paraphrased,
this instruction Is as follows:
I'm the opinion of the government of
the United States the time has come
when it is necessary that an end shall
be made to offenses committed by the
government Of Venezuela against and
the injustice which has been suffered
by American interests. The govern
ment Of the United States therefore,
desires to ask that the government of
Venezuela decide, yes or no, if it is
willing to submit all the pending ques-
tions in friendly way to arbitration.
Should the government of Venezuela
decline to agree to arbitration, which
is fair way to effect a sediment, the
government of the United States re-
serves to itself the right to take such
action as may seem to it advisable
May Go To Mexico.
Minister Bowen, 1t seems, has been
working in accordance with the ex-
press directions of the government Of
hcials at Washington and the fact that
he is persona non grata at Caracas
does not prejudice these officials
against him in the least 1t is rumored
that he may get the post as ambassa-
dor to Mexico to succeed Edwin H.
Conger next fall.

Washington D. c., April 15.-The
text Of the notes exchanged by Minis.
ter Bowen and Gen. Alexandra Ybarra,
minister for foreign affairs Of Venez.
uela, shows the American communica-
ton amounted practically to an ulti-
matum, and the Venezuelan reply was
a spirited refusal to submit to the
demands made.
fully by Secretary Taft, and they will
not be published with the consent of
this government, for the present at
least The exact language in which
each Is couched has been obtained,
however, and it establishes that the
United States and Venezuela actually
arrived at point dangerous to the
peace of the two countries, and it was
to avoid another step, which must
have had the character of force, that
Secretary Taft announced Friday that
he regarded the incident as closed.
1t has been asserted that the note
sent by Mr.. Bowen to Gen. Ybarra was
blunt, even curt. This is true, but it
appears from the text that the respon.
sibility for this curtness rests with
the government of the United States
and not with Mr.. Bowen. The part
the latter played in the correspond
ence was really only that of messen.
