One pIspatch Not peIIvered.

One dispatch sent Mr.. Russell last Sun
day had not been delivered to him up to
the time the last dispatch was sent by
him to the state department This Is be-
ing inquired into by the department.
The latest information received from
Russell came in a dispatch sent yester-
day. and the facts 1t contained were COM
municated to the French ambassador this
afternoon.
Whether the French squadron will con-
tent itself for tine present with peace
full blockade, or will go to the extent
Of seizing a custom house, is not known.
Should the latter step be taken 1t Is
probable that a neutral power will be
asked to receive all customs duties col
iected, that the powers having claims
against Venezuela which are now un-
dergoing settlement, may not be made
anxious by the French demonstration.
1t can be announced that French
demonstration in Venezuelan waters un-
der the circumstances will be viewed
here with complacency.

Must Respect Mr.. Russell.

President Castro, 1t is said. will be given
to understand that treatment of an
American representative, such as accord
ed M. Taigny. will not be tolerated by the
Washington government. The only cause
which can be assigned here for President
Castros GOODNESS towards Mr.. Russell is
that the former insists upon regarding as
personal rather than official the efforts
which Mr.. Russell, acting under nstruc-
tions from Washington, has made to as
sist a peaceful settlement of the Franco
Venezuelan troubles. The request of the
French government that it's interests in
Venezuela be looked after by Mr.. Russell,
was Immediately granted for the reason
that such a request Is invariably granted
by friendly power, however difficult the
task.
France has adopted a simple programme
for her treatment of the Venezuelan sit
uaton It provides for an immediate and
comprehensive apology by President Cas-
tro for his treatment of M. Taigny, which
treatment the Paris officials regard as In
sultlng." and '1ntolerable." Until this
apology is made. discussion of the claims
and other grievances which France has
against Venezuela will be withheld. The
French government regards the action OF
President Castro's agents In LaGuayra In
refusing to permit M. Taigny to return
ashore after he had boarded a French
liner, as an act of war. France demands
that her representative shall receive the
same treatment at Caracas as Is given the
Venezuelan representative at Paris

Mr.. Jusserand gave to the Secretary a
detailed account of the latest treatment
