Washington, July 22 — The first part
of a brief prepared by James J. Stor-
row, of the counsel for Venezuela, in
conjunction with Mr. Scruggs, the le
gal adviser of that government, has
just been completed and submitted for
the consideration of the Venezuela
boundary commission. The brief is
framed as an answer to the general
summary of the British bluebook de
voted to the Venezuela dispute, and,
like that, is an argument based upon
the evidence obtained by the agents of
the governments interested. The brief
is regarded at the state department as
a most important contribution to the
British-Venezuela question, as Mr.
Storrow is a Boston practitioner on
whom Secretary Oluey places muoh re
liance.
Mr. Storrow devotes much of
his brief to an attempt to combat what
he regards as an attempt to extend the
claim beyond occupation, and, applying
the laws and faots as he finds them, he
declares that they give no support to
the British claims, bot are affirmatively
aud specifically fatal to it.
Mr. Storrow then turns his attention
to the Schomburgk line, against the
running of whioh Venezuela protested,
and he says that every British ministry,
exoept that of Lord Salisbury, recog
nized that it was monstrons aud diplo
matically inadmissible upon such a
flimsy claim, whioh the British now
oalled the Dardanelles of the Orinoco,
and offered to agree to lines whioh tney
declared would secure to Venezuela the
undisputed possession of the mouth of
the Orinoco.
Lord Salisbury’s claim, however,
says Mr. Storrow, grew every time he
recurred to the subject, and he then
proceeds to point out in great detail
how, after Schomburgk's death and
forty years after his survey, the British
colonial office discovered that all these
maps were wrong and that Scbom-
bnrgk’ s line went around by the big
bend of the Onyuni, and compelled the
engraver to change all of his maps to
correspond, taking the Schomburgk
line far westward from the original
course. Says Mr. Storrowt
“ This is perilously near the altera
tion of anoient landmarks and spolia
tion of records.
It evidently deoeived
Lord Salisbury, who, on February 13,
1890, asserted it to be the line surveyed
by Sir R. Schomburgk in 1841. He did
not survey this line in 1841, or in any
other year.”

Lincoln, Neb., Jnly 22.— Each day,
the pile of letters at the home of W il
liam J. Bryan increases in size. In
stead of catching up with his corre
spondence, the Democratic presidential
candidate gets farther behind.
More
letters come in each day than he and
his w ife and his secretary can open and
read.
In order to let the people who
have w ritten, to him know about the
condition of affairs, Mr. Bryan has
given ont the following:
“ To the Public:
My daily mail has
grown so large that I find it impossible
to reply at length to each. Those who
are interested in the success of our
cause w ill appreciate the situation and
pardon me for making the following
suggestions:
“ First— As time w ill not permit a
full discussion of the principal ques
tions in so large a number of private
letters, I shall, in order to avoid dis
crimination,reserve all such discussions
for publio occasions.
“ Second— A ll offers of services and
snggestons as to the condnet of the
campaign should be made to the na
tional committee represenfng various
states and territories. A ll requests for
campaign literature should be adressed
to the secretary of the national com
mittee at headquarters as soon as head
quarters are opened.
If my friends
w ill be kind enough to observe these
suggestions, I shall be able tp devote

St. Lonis, Jnly 22.— Prominent gold

whether a third ticket shall be put ill

shall extend into the congressional dis
tricts or whether the bolters shall come
ont openly for McKinley and centralize
their efforts on him. Colonel James
O. Broadhead, ex-minister to Switzer

resolntion was adopted providing for
the naming of a committee of seven by
Broadhead to send out a oall for a con
