The president mntlc passing allusion to

been understood, however, that the main
purpose of Mr. Olncy was to reach 'an
ugn'omcnt as to Venezuela. and that, hav-
ing accomplished this, the larger question
of zarhltrntinnnll .diil'eronccs would require
considcrultlo time for its complete develop.-
mcut. But the negotiations have proceed-
ed with surprising unanimity, so that those
engaged in the wovl; confidently believe
that it will be fully agreed upon and the
signatures of the contracting partiesplaced
to the document within three weeks. This
