trine. On June 20. 1895, Olney set
up the then sensational claim that,
in accordance with the non-coloni-
zation pronouncement of Monroe,
the boundaries of foreign colonies
in the Americas had become fixed,
that they were determinable by ju-
dicial process, and must be so de-
termined lest in contest between
strong European nation and
weak American state, the line might
be pushed back and the area of
freedom curtailed. To insist upon
such a judicial settlement was, o.
ney urged. the United States duty
and privilege.
Clevelands fortnight foreign
minister went further. Not con-
tent" as Carl Russell Fish narrates
in his American Diplomacy" with
thus proclaiming the ultimate ex-
tinction of European colonial pos
sessions, Olney announced: Today
the United States is practically
sovereign on this continent, and its
fiat is law upon the subjects to
which it confines its interposition
Great Britain, the Secretary of
State declared, could not be consid-
cred as a South American power. II
she advanced her frontier, she
would be acting contrary to the
Monroe Doctrine. In order that we
might know that no such extension
was taking place, full arbitration
was necessary. The President. o.
ney said, must be Informed of
British policy before the next meet
ing of Congress. IF he is disap-
pointed in that hope" Olney told
his majesty's government, "the re-
suit will be calculated greatly to
embarrass the future relations be-
tween this country and Great Brit
ain" Lord Salisbury, denying these
contentious, refused to admit the
Intervention of the United States in
the controversy with Venezuela.
Then followed Cleveland's special
message to Congress on December
II, 1895. War spirit ran high, but
early in 1895 an arbitration tri-
bunal was set up. It met at Paris in
