Venezuela Trouble Will Oo to Tbe Hags
Trfeanal for Settlement.
Washington, Dec. 80. President
Roosevelt will not be the arbitrator
of the Venezuelan controversy. The
bole vexatious subject will be refer
red for adjudication to Tne Hague
tribunal.
Epitomized, tbls was the situation
as It bad resolved itseir at tne con
clusion of the Cabinet meeting ye
terday. The meeting was not so long
as tbe sessions usually are. All the
members, except Secretary Root, were
Dresent. The Venezuelan question
waa the principal and practically tne
only topic of general concern under
consideration. Secretary Hay pre
sented the results of bis cable corres
pondence with tbe government at
London. Berlin. Home ana Caracas,
In accordance with the suggestion
made by President Rooaevelt, through
Secretary Hay. President Castro wa
reported to have agreed to suomit me
difficulties to the arbitration of the
tribunal at The Hague. The Enro
pean powers not only consented tc
submit the controversy to armirauun
but while they bad expressed a pre
ference for an arbitration to be con
ducted by President Roosevelt, they
had assented to hi suggestion that
tbe matter be referred to The Hague,
Tbe presentation of tbe case met
tbe hearty approved or tne cabinet
No fear Is expressed by the Adminis
tration that the Monroe Doctrine wii
be brought into the controversy In
any manner that might result in an
embarrassing situation for the United
States. Secretary Hay la preparing a
note to the powers in wbicn tne grati'
fication of this Government la ex
pressed for the course agreed upon,
So intimation Is given of the condi
tion which may have been Imposed
by the European poweta or oy
President Castro as precedent
the arbitration. It la known that
Great Britain was willing to submit
the subject to the arbitration or treat
dent Roosevelt practically without
conditions, but the suggestion is made
tnat one and perhaps two of the other
powers Involved proposed some con
ditions which might have proved em
barrasslng to the President had he un
dertaken the responsibility of deter
mining tbe question.
It Is understood tnat some money
must pass, but It Is also known that
the Lmount of cash .to be required of
enpznela before arbitration Is not
nearly so large as bad been stated.
It Is not possible to learn either
whether the allies Insist upon apoi
ogiea from Castro, and while it la a

Washington, Dec. 31. There U
now In progress an active exchange of
notes between the allied powers,
Venezuela and the United States, re
specting the method of submitting to
arbitration the Issues which have
arisen between Venezuela and the
allies. The weight of official opinion
here this afternoon was that several
day. at least niudt elapse before any
thing In the nature of a preliminary
protocol can be made ready for sig
nature. German insistence upon a
prepayment of 10 per cent of her full
claims before submitting her case to
arbitration, and perhaps President
Castro resistance to meeting what
the allies claim as the obligations of
honor are believed to be now toe
sticking points. But It is hoped that
these can be pased within the next few
days, and it is further hoped that
some arrangement will be made In the
preliminary protocol for the raising
of the blockade, though it is Intimat
ed that the allies' ships will be kept
ready to renew it in case of any de
fault on the part of Venezuela in her
obligations.
Washington having been the pivot
about which all the negotationa have
turned up to this point, it is surmised
that it may also be the scene of the
anal act in the shape of the signature
of the protocol, either by the resident
representatives here of the powers in
terested or by special agent sent to
this neutral ground for the purpose.
n erroneous idea obtained In some
luarter as to the functions of the
President and Secretary Hay in this
matter, and they have been repreeent-
d as endeavoring personally to con-
luct the negotationa, as drawing np
orotocols and generally taking a
eading part in all that is going on. It
pointed out at the State Department
that, while ordinarily a misunder-
tanding on this point would be trifl
ing. It happens in the present case
hat report, of such activity on tne
?art of the United State, officials
after the President had expressly de-
lined to assume the duties of arbitra
tion would surely be ill received in
Europe and might perhaps lead to
some backward steps that wouia oe
