Washington, Jan. 22.-Convinced of
the sincerity of the assurances re-
ceived from France regarding her 10y
atty to the Monroe doctrine and all
that it involves, the Washington gov
eminent has given the Paris govern
ment free hand in the execution of
the program for the solution of the
Venezuelan problem. The conferences
on this phase of the question occurred
some time ago, and M. Jusserand, the
French ambassador, has final assur-
ances that the efforts of France to OBJ
tain diplomatic treatment for her
charge d'affaires at Caracas will not
be interpreted at Washington as in
any way violative of the Monroe doc
trine.
The first move in the execution of
the French program may be expected
at any time, but on this point the
French government is observing the
strictest secresy, the orders to the
squadron going direct from Paris and
not through the embassy here. M.
Taigny, the retiring French charge
daffaires, who. it is believed, is now
at Curacao, will come to this country
on his way home, and on his arrival
at New York he will find an invita-
ton from the French ambassador at
Washington to spend several days
here in conference with M. Jusserand.
on whom the burden of an important
phase of the Venezuelan negotiations
naturally falls that he may have the
benefit of the facts about the situa-
ton. 1t is not unlikely that M. Taigny
will also see Secretary Root.
The whereabouts of the French
ships remains a mystery so far as the
officials of the state department and
French embassy are concerned, it is
said. 1t is assumed, however. that
hey are daily in touch with the min
stry of marine at Paris and are
waiting an opportune moment as
heir instructions may call for.
Great interest is felt in diplomatic
'ircles here about the exact nature of

ASHORE 100 LOST

Victoria, Jan. 24.-With 81 passen-
gers and about 60 in her crew the
steamer Valencia went ashore about 10
miles east of Cape Beale in thick fog
about 12..o'clock Monday night. She
is on the rocks against hing cliff and
is likely to go to pieces at any time.
One boats crew of six men reached
Cape Beale about p. m. Tuesday.
The survivors say that great mum
Der were drowned in TRYING to leave the
ship. Some reports say 100 lives are
lost. Nine men got ashore about 10
miles from here. Two men are pris-
oners on the face of the cliff and can
not get up or back to the ship. The sea
will likely reach them when the tide
is high.
The men report very pathetic scenes.
One woman dropped her child in the
sea In trying to hand it to her husband.
A little boy of years is running
around the deck trying to find his
mother who is among the drowned.
There are still about 1875 persons on
the ship, with almost certain death
staring them in the face. The steamer
Queen has left for the wreck.
