OLHEY'S MET DUTIES

A '.Number of Complications With Foreign Countries.

SEVERAL OF GREAT IMPORTANCE

Tho New Secretary of State In, However, Well Posted on All the Subjects lie Has to Handle as He Has Constantly Been

Consulted by the Late Secretary Gresliain on All International Questions.' WASHINGTON, June 10.—Secretary of

State Olney is expected to take the oath ot' office today. There will be no undue liaste, however, on the part of the new cliief of the state department to lay aside the pending business of the department of justice and take up the important foreign questions before the state department. Mr. Olney has given lunch close study to the larger law questions coming before liis department that it will rake some time for him to put the work aside, aud for the new attorney general grow into it.

Mr. Olney is, moreover, equipped in advance for the duties of liis new office, as he lias been consulted constantly during the last year on the various complications over Venezuela, Nicaragua, Bering sea, the Waller case, foreign tariff retaliation, the Japan-China treaties, Spain's conflict with Cuba and the lesser questions in which the United States have been brought in relation with the rest of the world.

The last year has been frightful in complications. Some of these were closed by Mr. Gresham, or: advanced to such a 'stage that they will not preclude the British-Nicaragua incident, in which the United States aided toward a settlement the Japan-China treaty of peace, which was effected as a result- ol kindly intervention by tho United States and the friction with Hawaii as the result of the demand for the recall, of Minister Thurston. The other loreign questions which attracted public attention during Mr. Gre.slnun administration of tho department are still pending.

With (xreat Britain there aro two great questions of special importance to b'1 adjusted, viz: 'lnose affecting Bering sea and the Venezuela boundary. A Bering sea conference will be held in Washington in October next, Sir Julia/i Pauncefoto having eii'ecting the preliminary arrangements with ur. (iresliam. The purpose is to drai'c a new treaty by which the claims ot Canadian sealers tor alleged seizures and losses will be submitted to a commission. The conference will not ta^:o up the more important question ot readjusting the Bering sea-uegulation iu order to make thmu effective. This will come later, however, and promises to call out a vigorous legal and diplomatic controversy.

The British-Venezuela question is mainly significant in involving tne Monroe doctrine. The United States lias asked Great Britain to arbitrate the question. So far as is known no definite answer has been given to Ambassador Bayard, who presented the request of tins country. Bub as the British iorcijrn otlico "lias positively declined to consider similar requests by Pop Leo and by the International Arbitration Association it is not doubted that in due time a declination will come to the United States. It will then remain for the state department to determine to what extent British aggression in Venezuela is compatible with the Monroe doctrine. Mr. Gresliain had made a special study of the subject, legarding it- as of more importance than other foreign questions under consideration. Mr. Olney was calied into conference, aiul for several weeks prior to his selection for secretary of state he was busy investigating this complicated question. It is probable chat a definite issue will be readied when Ambassador Bayard sends Great: Britain's answer.

With France, the only question ot' consequence pending is as to the iniurisonmtiic- ox ex-Consul General Waller. Ambassador Eustis has been instructed to -make inquiries with a view to securing for Waller all the rights of mi American citizen abroad, including a trial by a civil court.

Germany, Austria and Denmark are having numerous tariff complications with the United States which threatened at one time to bring about radical retaliation by this country. The readjustment has proceeded largely through the state department. Germany and Denmark continue their exclusion of American meats, but there -are prospects that a satisfactory setplenient will be effected. The discriminating duties levied against the beet sugars of Germany aud Austria brought on the conflict aud Denmark followed the lead of her influential neighbors.

The Cuban revolution promises to be a source of controversy with Spain. Minister De Lome has already asked the state department to apprehend those sending arms to Cuba, and tho suggestion is made that Spain will make a claim against the United States based on the precedent of the Alabama claims. Officials are not solicitions, however, as to this claim, and tho intimation is made that it is inspired by British sources and of resentment for the Alabama decision.

Italy and the United States are expected to arrive at a satisfactory settlement ere long concerning the murder 3± a number ol Italians in Colorado. It is understood that Secretary Gresham regarded tho offenses such as infringement of international rights that he inaugurated negotiations lor the payment of cash indemnities to the families of the dec-eased Italians. This step, if consummated, will be in addition to the steps taken by the autaonties of Colorado to prosecute the oli'enders.

Tho only subject of consequeuce pending with Russia is that concerning tho amelioration of the condition of the Jews.

The United1 '"'States has taken little part in the Armenian question which is provoking a conflict between Turkey and the European powers.

One of the first acts Mr, Olney is likely to be called on to perform is that of recognizing the new government of Ecuador, winch has como into power after a-bloody revolution. There are no pending questions with other South or Central American countries, save that in Which Venezuela is involved.

sWHKELIJSU, June iOi-r-The town ^Cameron, W.
