congress will support the president, and of this there can be no doubt, Great Britain will soon be given the choice of
surrendering or fighting.
Upon i^ithority which cannot be questioneu, reads the dispatch, it is known that this government has re-
ceived a cablegram from Ambassador Bayard giving briefly the contents of
the note which the Marquis of Salis-
bury has mailed in reply to Secretary
Olney’s dispatch of last July. This re-
ply is iu substance a refusal to arbitrate
any of the territory eastward of the
Schomberg line. Moreover, Lord Salis-
bury raises a new case. He now contends that the Schomberg line was not arbitrarily run; that it was. in fact, located upon authentic data, aud that it can be proved by the records, the treaty descriptions and the maps that it correctly represents the western limits of the territory which Great Britain acquired by cession from Holland. The receipt of this information caused some excitement iu Washington, Secretary Olney at once proceeded to confer with the president aliout it. They agreed in the opinion that the British premier was trifling with the merits of the question; that he was attempting to evade and delay a direct response to the principal issue involved, and to bring on a controversy as to historical records and topographical facts. Such a controversy, the secretary and president agreed, if once started might
run an indefinite length.
The programme which the president and the secretary now have in mind is first to ascertain the wishes of Venezuela in the premises. If Venezuela is unwilling to submit to England's pretension, tne president will refer the whole matter to congress. The correspondence will be accompanied with a letter from the president explaining the situation, but probably containing no recommendation. Congress, as the ouly wurmakim; power, will be left to its own determination, uninfluenced save by facts. It is expected, however, that congress will at once authorize the president to issue an ultimatum that will cause England to back down or
fight-
