NO ACTION By FRANCE
Holland 4bIe to Settle It's Dispute
zeath Venezuela

Paris, Aug. 21.-France is watching with IN
terest the developments Of the Dutch-Venezue-
Ian situation, but it be said authoritatiVely
that she does not intend to take any part In the
present controversy. If the United States, as
the recognized corrector of venezuela, mas
transferred the power of punishment to Hoi-
land. Holland is quite capable of acting. and
France will be sympathetic spectator
There is a widespread belief here that 1t
would be unwise for Holland to land troops in
Venezuela as this action might cause Castro s
adherents and those who oppose him to unite
for the defence of the country. An effective
blockade is considered better move
The Hague, Aug 21.-The press and public OF
the Netherlands take the Venezuelan affair
calmly. Naval officers are most interested III
Il and express pleasure at the possibility OF
active service The government. however THINKS
there is a chance that the difficulty may be
patched up by diplomacy. The adoption OF any
punitive measure will depend on the tenor Oh
President Castro's reply to Hollands repre-
sentations.
A detachment OF fifty men left Amsterdam
to-day TO reinforce the garrison at Willemstao'
The present strength of the garrison Is ten
officers and 1s2 men, and there Is militia

MUNICIPAL AIDS TO ATHLETES.
4 Comparison of the English and American
Systems.

London, Aug. 21-J- B. Maccabe- of Boston. has
completed behalf OF the city of Boston and the
Amateur Athletic Union Of America an fnvestiga-
ton OF the municipal baths, gymnasiums, play
grounds and washhouses of England. In an inter
view before his departure for Boston MI Maccabe
said he had found the London system as developed
nv the Marylebone Borough Council. admirable.
and thought America had much to learn from them
in the way of washhouses and laundries- They
we're behind America in that charges were made
for the use of the baths and laundries- The mu-
nicfpaI gyrnnasiums had not advanced as far IN
England as in America, and the playground system
could not be compared with that OF the American
cities
MI Maccabe looked also into the system of atil-
Ietic meetings for the British army held annually
with a view to its adoption in the American army
The Amateur Athletic Union has this matter IN
hand and, it is understood, will recommend that
the difficulty of separating amateurs and profes-
sionals be settled by allowing every man in the
army to compete in the army meetings without
jeopardizing his amateur standing for outside
meetings.
