Washington, March 24.—Minister Bowen cables the state department ifrom Caracas that President Castro flatly refused to arbitrate the pending isssues between Venezula and the United States. 3 Washington, March 24.—In the ab- gence of the Belgian minister, Baron von Moncheur, nothing is known at the Belgian legation regarding the reference of President Morales in the dispatches from San Domingo to the Belgian claims which, the president says, are being pressed. Several days ago Raron. Moncheur received from his government a cablegram asking if any investigation was to be made by an American commission into the Dominican_ situation. It is supposed that, in view of the senate’s refusal to deal with the Dominican matter, the Belgian government feels it is forced to pursue its own course. Other European powers also, while willing to await {he negotiations of Secretary Hay, regard the attitude of the senate as so opposed to the pro- posed course of the government that they fear they will be obliged to act individually on the question. The Belgian government has kept in close touch with the state department in the preceding phases of the San Do- mingo matter. Last fall, with Italy and Germany, Belgium made inquiry as to the intentions of the United States relative to the collection of customs under the San Domingo Im- provement company’s protocol and they expressed apprehension that the interests of their citizens baving claims against San Domingo would i sufier under the operations of the protocol for the reason that sufficient revenue to meet them' would not be available after the Dominican govern- ment had provided for its own main- tenance and the United States had collected the revenues at Monte Cristi and Puerto Plata. Their apprehen- sions on . this score were somewhat relieved by the submission to the senate of the proposed Dominican treaty. With the failure of this treaty state department ofticials think with President Morales that these creditor nations have conceived the idea that the treaty is lost and that it is now a. case of each one for himself. =lllllll|l'llllllll l Work and Outing ’J- SHOES %~ ll LADIES’ CRUISING BOOTS, waterproof; Goodyear MEN'S DRIVING SHOES, a y A Special Drive in LADIES’ tops, $6.00; 12-inch tops, $5.00. -a BOYS’ CRUISERS, made from the best grade kangaroo calf stock, $3 00 per pair.
