Carpenter, who was recently relieved of command of the naval forces on the Asiatic station, will be placed on the retired list of the navy on the 27th instant, by operation of law, on account of age. On that day he will become sixty-two years of age, which is the limit for service on the active list of the navy, being two years less than it is inthe army. His re- tirement will make promotions in all the other grades in the line of the navy. Com- modore T, O. Selfridge, commanding the European squadron,with the honorary rank of acting rear admiral, will be promoted an actual rear admiral. On his promotion there will be two rear admirals of the same rame in the United States, father and son, a state of things almost unprecedented in the history of the navies of the world. Rear Admiral T. O. Selfridge, sr., is on the retired list, He is a resident of this city, and is in the neighborhood of ninety years of age. He was retired in July, 1866, on statutory grounds, and bears his age won- derfully well. His son, who will soon reach the highest grade in the naval service, is now sixty years old, and will have but two years more of active fervice in the navy. Capt. Allen V. Reed, commanding the Portsmouth (N. H.) navy yard, will become a commodore on the elevation of Commo- dcre Selfridge, and Commanader F. A. Cook, assistant chief of the bureau of navi- gation, Navy Department, will move up to the grade of captain. The other consequent promotions are as follows: Lieutenant Com- mander Charles T. Hutchins to be com- mander; Lieut. C. P. Perkins to be Meuten- ant commander; Lieut. Gunior grade) D. A. Menefee to be lieutenant; Ensign Vol- ney O. Chase to be lieutenant (junior grade). The next retirements in the list of ad- mirals in the regular order of events are Admiral John A. Walker, chairman of the ght house board, March 20, 1897; Admiral F. M. Ramsay, chief of the bureau of navi- gation, April 5, 1897, and Admiral George Brown,commanding the Norfolk navy yard, June, 1897. With these retirements Ad- miral W. A. Kirkland} reeéntly retired from command of the Eurdpean squadron, and now on waiting orders, ywill become the ranking officer of the navy, a distinction now held by Admiral Brown. gen TO VENTILATE, THE SENATE. Enstiniates Presented by Expert Wood- bridge and His Remarks. The printed report /of $: H. Woodridge, the expert who wes employed by the Senate to make plans and e&*im4tes for the heat- ing and ventilation @f the Senate wing of the Capitol, is now/jn {he hands of the comniftte> on rules,“THe report is accom- panied? by numerous diagrams. THé esti mates'for sll the work aggregate $50,47 Of this amount, $11,870 was' for the Senate chamber, $10,450 for committee rooms and corridors, $4,000 for subbasement arrange- ments, $15,000 for the artificial cooling of the Sénate chamber, $4,000 for extra dyn: mo,. etc., $1,000 for terrace rocm id $2, for the corridor discharge ventilation. concluding his report, Mr. says. in Woodbridge Won't Satisfy Every One. “In conclusion, allow me to express the conviction that nothing which may be done now, or in the future, toward perfecting the Capitol’s heating and ventilating sys- tem can be made to give universal satis- facticn. Results in temperatures, air puri- ty, humidity and draftiness which are wholly satisfactory to most will yet be complained of by the few. Conditions of health, of age and of habits, personal idiosyncracies, etc., cannot be provided for in any general system desigred with refer- ence to average requirements. Exceptional needs must be individually provided for by the adaptation.of clothing, etc., to the con- ditions found. “It is, furthermore, impracticable to so sweep an inclosure with ventilating cur- rents as to free it from odors generated as rapidly as they can be floated away by such means. Ventilation cannot be held re- sponsible fcr odors which it is the province of the wash or the laundry tub to remove. It has no legitimate connection with the gross or the lesser filth of person or cloth- ing often admitted to the galleries. Its currents can do little else than diffuse such filth in aerial ‘orm. The nuisance itself must be removed and excluded by more ap- propriate means.” REVOLT OF THE HOVAS. Attacked the French in Madagascar and Were Repulsed With Great Loss, A French newspaper published on the Island of Reunion publishes a mes- sage from its corresponent at Antanana- rive, dated January and declaring: that a great conspiracy has been discovered there.

HER ATTITUDE TOWARD AMERICA Amicable Settlement of the Venezu- ela Dispute. ARMENIA. AND TRANSVAAL ae In the British house of Lords yester- day afternoon Lord Rosebery, formerly the liberal premier, complained of the meager program of the government, ss expressed in the queen’s speech. Proceeding with his remarks, Lord Rose- bery referred to the ominous omission from the queen’s speech of the usual reference to the friendship of fore'gn powers. He ridiculed the fulsome eulogy bestowed up- on Colonial Secretary Chamberlain, “as if no previous British minister ever did his duty,” remarked his lordship. _ He epprcved the government policy in the ‘Transvaal, but he thought it. unfortunate that the new poet laureate had been per- mitted to publish-a glowing eulogy of the Jameson raid. He warned Mr. Chamberlain, in boasting of his corduct of the colonial policy, not to indulge in puerile reflections calculated needlessly to irritate the foreign powers. The Venezuelan difficulty, he said, was no new one, and they had all tried their hands at it. But now the intervention of the United States offered a guarantee of the permanence of any settlercent that might be effected. He interpreted the reference in the qteen’s speech to mean that some negotiations were proceeding between Eng- land and America. He rejoiced at that an- nouncemrnt, because it indicated a way to issue from the impasse produced by Lord Salisbury’s dispatch and President Cleve- land’s message, and gave promise of the United States seeing that Venezuela faith- fully executed any settlement arrived at. He weJcomed the movement on both sides of the Atlentic in favor of permanent arbi- tration. Turning then to the subject of Ar- menia, Lord Rosetery said that he hoped the house would receive fuller information than was contained in the curt, cold allu- sion in the cueen’s speech. Lord Salis- bury’s brave words toward the sultan, he said,.had not been followed by brave deeds. The noble marquis had been forced to abandon the cause of the Armenians. Sure- ly scme course might kave been adopted between a crusade and apathy. Lord Salisbury Cheered. The Marquis of Salisbury, the prime min- ister, was received with loud cheers as he arose to reply to the criticisms of Lord Rosebery, the ex-prime minister. He-gaid: “No sympathy with the Armenians would justify us in facing calamities, compared with which the Crimean war would sink into insignificance.” After « feelirg reference to the death of Prince henry of Battenberg, Lord Salis- bury Wenied that anything had been given up in the Siam agreement with France. ‘Turning then to Venezuela, Lord Salisbury concurred in Lord Rosebery’s views that America’s mixture in the dispute had con- duced to satisfactory results more rapidly than if the United States had not interfered. Speaking of the Venezuelan controversy, Lord Salsbury, replying to some points made in Lord Rosebery’s speech, said: “1 do not think that the invoking of the Monroe doctrine was controversally quite unnecessary for the United States. Consid- ering the position of Venezuela in the Carib- bean sea, it Was no more unnatural that the United States should iake an interest in it than that we should feel an interest in Hol- land and Lelgium; and from that point of view I trust the negotiations will continue. “I do not like*to go further into a ques- tion obviously undesirable to state in the condition of negotiations at present, but I have had an increasing belief during the past few weeks that we shall, perhaps not till after long negotiations, find some satis- factory settlement and all danger of a rup- ture of relations between the two nations be entirely removed. (Cheers.) “At the same time, I do not wish the house to think that we have arrived at any agree- ment. I think we are rightly relying upon the question of arbitration. America at- taches more unrestricted value to that mode of adjusting controversies than has hither- n done here; but I believe that means e found by a combivation of negotia- th arbitration to wring the matters ‘e not difficult to a settlement. The stacle has been Venezuela’s ex- travegart claims, and it was not following the customary international policy when Venezuela broke off diplomatic relations be- cause they could rot obtain the precise lim- it of territory they desired. But for that action I believe the difficulty would have been settled long ago.” With reference to permanent arbitration, the prime minister expressed the belief that, between the extremes of unrestricted arbi- tration of all subjects, which it was impos- sible for the two nations to adopt, and the former practice, which perhaps used arbi- tration too little, a middle term may be found which will effectually diminish the chance of confliet. Salisbury on Armenia. “Wew as to Armenia,” was Lord Salis- bury’s way of taking up the next topic of his s»eech, “Lord Rosebery’s spirited denunciation of the government would have been more formidable !f it had any foundation in fact. But I defy him to find any stipula- ticn in the Berlin treaty that could be construed into an undertaking or threat to fight Turkey on behalf of the Armen- Sans.” He had warned the sultan, he continued, of what would happen if he ignored the opinion of Europe, aud he repeated that the sultan was running very great danger by such defiance, if he relied on the Eu- repean fear of what would happen if the Turkish empire disappeared. He was in- clined to believe that Europe would delay such a catastrophe the longest possible, but if the present state of things contin- zed its natural consequences could not be indefinitely delayed. Lord Rosebery had ac- cused the government of inaction, but when, in May last, he himself had been in power, he did not give any sign of resort- ing to force if England’s demands were not concede: The remainder of the speech was merely a repetition of Lord Salisbury’s speech to the Non-Conformist Unionist Association. Upon the conclusion of the speech the address was agre2d to. In the Commons. In the ho.se of commons Mr. George J. Goschen, jr., conservative, member for the East Grinstead division of Sussex, moved the address in reply. In moving the address, Mr. Goschen said he trusted that the negotiations regarding the Venezuela question would result not only in a satisfactory settlement, but in a complete reconciliation and firm friend- ship between Great Britain and her kin- dred across the Atiantic. Continuing, Mr. Goschen made a glowing reference to the cutburst of patriotic feeling in Canada and in ihe British colonies during the re- cent political crisis. Sir William Vernon Harcourt said he was rejoiced at the paragraph in the queen’s speech with regard to Venezuela, as it held out the hope that the question could be settled at an early date. He added that no words that could impede such a settle- ment would fall from him. No Party Fight Over Venezuela. This remark was greeted with loud cheers, as it disposed of the report that the liberal leaders had determined to make an attack upon the government's policy in regard to Venezuela, which coursé neces- sarily would have led to an exchange of warm remarks, which might have impeded the progress of settlement of the dispute. Continuing, Sir William Harcourt said that misunderstandings, both in England and in the United States, existed and had caused ruffied feelings on both sides. The idea that America and Great Britain dis- puted the question of Monroeism was noth- ing new or extraordinary. Monroeism, he asserted. vas not a principle of interna- tional law, but one of national policy, to which the Americans have a traditional and passionate attachment, and it was the same doctrine by virtue of which Great Britain had interfered in various states when her interests were affected. “Monroeism” Defended.” Sir William Harcourt also said: entire agreement with Lord Salisbury when he says the United States have a perfect right to Interpose in any controversy by which their own interests are affected, and they are entitled to judge whether their in- terests are affected and in what measure they shall be sustained. That is a general doctrine upon which all states act. Upon this Is founded the balance of power, and upon that ground Great Britain interposed in Belgium, Greece, Turkey and many other places. The Monroe doctrine is not an ex- tension of this principle, it is a limitation of what other states claim to exercise every- where. President Monroe limited it to the American continent, and the United States, following the wise teaching of Washington, have declared their disinclmation and de- termination not to interfere in the contro- versies of the European powers, but they have declared the controversies of the American continent to be of special interest to themselves, and they will judge when and how they are called upon to interfere. That feeling is not disputed in the queen's speech, and I rejoice to see that it states a wish to co-operate with the government of the United States, and the only practical ques- tion remaining is whether the doctrine has been invaded in the case of Venezuela. The United States have not made any pronounce- ment upon this question, but have appointed a commission to inform their judgments upon the subject. The American Commissio: “It has been stated that the appointment of this commission was an offense to the people and government cf Great britain. Happily, the government does not take that view. The commission js to inform the gov- ernment of the United States, with which our government desires to cp-operate. How can the United States of America co-opefate with us unless they have the information which will enable them to-co-operate in set- tling the boundary? “I regret the delay in the publication of the English case. I should have thought that before Secretary Olney was answered all the materials would have been ready to lay before the United States and the world at large. We do not desire to claim any territory to wnich we are not clearly enti- tied, and the question is what is that terri- tory? It is the business of the diplomats to come to a reasonable setlement in such a matter. Diplomacy has had this matter in hand for half a century, and a mighty bad hand it has made of it, in my opinion. It is not creditable that a question of this character should have been allowed to fester until it has broken open into a dan- gerous sore to breed bad blood between two great nations. It is the first duty of the government to take measures, without delay to heal this sore. (Loud cheers.) Prompt Solution Demanded. “What the country demands without dis- tinction of party is that the dispute should be brought to an honorable solution prompt- ly. (Cheers.) “If it is proved that rights of Venezuela have not been invaded by Great Britain, the United States of America will have no use for complaint. If we have occupied territory to which we have no title we must not make any pretense to maintain that occupation. The question must be settled on the evidence, and what objection can be raised to the arbitrament of a third party? “The people of Great Britain and the United States of America have already set- tled important questions by arbitration, and it cannot be admitted that this question is beyond the reach of arbitration. The gov- ernment does not reject arbitration, and the only question left is the limitation of the boundary. There is a general desire that justice should be done.” Transvaal and Armenia, Referring to the Transvaal, Sir William Vernon Harcourt paid a high compliment to Mr. Chamberlain for his skillfull conduct of the affair, and said that he thought his- tory had but few examples of such moder- ation as had been displayed by President Kruger, under circumstances of unparallel- ed_ provocation. Turning to Armenia, Sir William Har- court said that to say the reference to this subject in the queen’s speech is disappoint- ing and totally unworthy of the subject will represent the feeling of the country. Con- tinuing, he remarked: “These crimes are matters for our special concern, as we are parties to the guarantee of the powers. The whole point of the treaty of Berlin is that there was a cove- rant upon the part of the sultan to carry out reforms and a guarantee upon the part of the powers of Europe to see that these reforms were effected. ‘Under the Cyprus convention Great Britain specially covenants to defend Turkey in Asia in return for which Turkey covenants to protect the Christians in Ar- mtnia. The support we have given Turkey was conditional upon the covenants which the sultan has foully broken. “Is this to be the oute Anglo-Turkish policy of 1 ? Continuing, Sir Wiliam Harcourt de- scribed Lord Salisbury’s recent speech on the subject of Armenia as an “unparalleled confession of diplomatic insolvency and national impotence.” Passing to the other topics of the speech, Sir William Harcourt expressed confidence that the house would support the necessary increase in the navy. Sir William concluded his speech by say- fig: “I am glad to find that the govera- ment has not ccntemplated a return to protection or tampering with the cur- renc; Mr. Balfour Replies. A. J. Balfour, first lord of the treasury, and conservative leader in the house, was loudly cheered when he arose to reply to the liberal leader. He said: “Sir William Harcourt has devoted much time to attacking the view which the gov- emment has never held. Neither I nor my friends ever said that the Moaroe doctrine Was one to which we had a right to object. It is of British origin, and I do not see any reason why we should criticise it. ‘The American commissioners (on the Venezuelan boundary) nave applied to us to aid them with any information we have on the Venezuelan subject, and we have promised to give them all the information We are able to give at the earliest possible moment. (Cheers.) No false pride or diplo- matic punctilio will be allowed to stand in the way of a settlement, as far as w, are concerned. x “But there are duties requiring diplo- matic enforcement. We owe a duty to our children, our colonies and those occupying them; and this country would not deserve to retain the confidence of the colonies un- less we"convinced them that we were ready and willing to defend them, and in a case in which we are right we should not aban- Gon them. (Cheers.) “It is impossible to fores2e with certainty what will be the general conclusions ar- rived at by the American commission-or by those called upon to investigate the Brit- ish case. But one conclusioh, I am cer- tain, will be reached by every one who im- partially investigates; he will be convinced that there has never ‘been the slightest in- tention on the part of this country to vio- late the substance or essence of the Mon- roe doctrine. Whatever other conclusion the commizsion may arrive at, ‘t will most assuredly reach the conclusion that no de- sire to push beyond the due limit of the frontier of this empire has ever been the animating cause which moved British di- plemacy in this long-drawn-out contro- versy. “If this conclusion be fairly ahd frankly set before the citizens of the United States one of their gravest preoccupations will be set at rest. They will feel no need to sus- pect, on the part of this country, anything in the nature of an invasion of a principle of policy which both they and we cherish. “I should rejoice if, out of this evil should spring some general system of arbitration. if that were the issue, I should feel that ali misunderstandings and evils done had been more than removed, and that a permanent guarantee of good wili between the En- glish speaking nations on the two sides of the Atlantic had been attained for all time.” Transvaal and Armenia. Turning then to the Transvaal question, Mr. Balfour said: “The armed forces of the Chartered Com- pany will, of course, be transferred to an imperial officer without delay. There is, therefore, no possibility of a repetition of the recent deplorable event. “The government propose,'as soon as the pending trials are concluded, that there shall be a full inquiry into-the facts and history of the charter.” Passing then to the subject of Armenia, Mr. Balfour said: “Lord Salisbury’s speech to the Non-Conformist Unionist Association accurately described Great Britain's obliga- tions. There is nothing in the Berlin or the Cyprus treaties requiring the powers, or England singly, to go to war to compel the Turks to carry out their pledges.” Mr. Balfour pointed out the impossibility of individual action on the part of G Britain. He said in this connection: “Short of bringing upon-ourselves the prospect of @ possible European conflagration, we could have done no more in the direction | Mr. Balfour further pointed out that for- eign nations think in all rivalries and dis- putes, and perhaps, wars, which would fol- low such an event, they are not prepared to lift a finger to assist Great Britain in carry- ing out reform. While, unhappily, there is no sign of Turkish statesmen seeing the error of their ways, he would never regret being the follower of a government which, at all events, did its best to induce Turkey to take the only possible course to secure the permanence of the ottoman empire. England’s Responsibility. James Bryce reminded the house that it was a@ government of which Lord Salisbury was a member which deprived the Armen- ians of Russian protection under the treaty of San Stefano, and substituted the treaty of Berlin, by which England undertook the moral responsibility for the protection of the Armenians. The government, he add- ed, would have to explain which power it was that upset the European concert. Mr. Goschen, first lord of the admiralty, rising at this point, retorted: “It was Mr. Gladstone who invented the European concert. Turkish failure to exe- cute promised reforms relieved us from the obligation to defend the Turkish integrity.” The house of commons thereupon ad- journed. AMBASSADOR BAYARD’S REQUEST. He Asks for the British Side in thi Venerucla Dispute. The London Times this morning publish- ed Ambassador Bayard’s request of the British government for information on Venezuelan affairs, which was referred to by Mr. Balfour in his speech in the house of commons yesterday. The Times says editorially of it: “It is very different from the tone of President Cleveland’s message. The speech- es in both houses of parliament are a sub- stantial proof of the earnest desire of the English people to maintain cordial rela- tions with America.” ‘The Times says that a parliamentary paper was issued last night containing the diplomatic correspondence between Eng- land and America since 1887 respecting the boundary question between Venezuela and British Guiana, which shows that the suc- cessive British governments have taken up the same position described a year ago by the Earl of Kimberly, then the secre- tary of state for foreign affairs in the Rosebery cabiret, in the following words: “Her majesty’s government has consis! ently declined and still declines to submit to arbitration the question of the right to territory long settled and governed as a part of British colopy, nor are they now Prepared to accept any material modifi- cation of the provisional boundary pro- claimed in 1886. On the other hand, they have offered to concede Venezuela without arbitration a large portion of the territory comprised in their extreme claim, and they are ready to go to arbitration respecting an intermediate zone, as to the exact limit of which they would be prepared to accept medification, having proper regard to na- ticnal boundaries.” The Times then continues: “After the well-known dispatches of Secretary Olney and Lerd Salisbury (which were submitted with President Cleveland's Venezuela mes- sage to Congress) the correspondence ends with the following letters interchanged in Februa Mr. Bayard’s Request. “Bayard to Salisbury, dated February 3. “My lord: I have the honor to inform you that I am instructed by the Secretary of State to make known to your lordship that the commission to investigate and re- port upon the true divisional line between the republic of Venezuela and British Guiana has, under the authority of Con- gress, been appointed by the President, which commission is now in session at Washington hag chosen Justice Brewer as its president. Through its president this commission hus suggested to the Sec- retary of State, being distinctly and in no view an arbitral tribunal, bet having its duty limited to a diliyent and careful ai certainment of the facts touching the ter- ritory referred to and in the dispute for the information of the President, it would be grateful for such assistance to that end as could be obtained by the friendly eo-opera- tion and aid of the governments of Great Britain and Venezuela. Wherefore I beg leave to make application to your lordship that, if entirely consistent with your sense of international propriety, the commission may be furnished with such documentary proof, historical narrative, unpublished ar- chives or other evidence as may be within the power of her majesty’s government, as well as for any facilities which may be conveniently extended to assist the com- mission in the purposes of its insiltution. In communicating these wishes of the com- mission to the Secretary its president states: ‘It is scarcely necessary to say that if either Great Britain or Venezuela should deem it proper to designate an agent or at- torney, whose duty it would be to see that no such proofs were omitted or overlooked, the commission would be grateful for suc evidence of good will and for the valuable results which would be likely to follow therefrom. “Either party making a favorable re- sponse to the wich so expressed by the pres- ident of the commission will, of course, only be considered as amicus curiae, and to throw light upon dfficult and complex questions of fact.’ “The purposes of the investigation pro- posed by the commission are certainly hos- tile to ncne, nor can it be of advantage to afy that the effort to secure the desired 4nformation should fail of its purpose, th sole concein of the United States being the peaceful solution of the controversy be- tween the friendly powers.

LONDON, February 11.—The most im- portant announcenvent in today’s proceed- ings in parliament was made by Lord Salis- | bury respecting the Venezuelan affair. This was an explicit statement that direct nego- tiaticns with Venezuela would sbon be re- sumed and the great obstacle jo a settle- ment of the question be removed thereby. Opinion in the lobbies was general that the Venezuelan questien bad virtually been settled, all that remained bein a matter of detail. The United States government, by bringing moral pressure to bear upon the Carecas government, has opened a way for a resumption of diplomatic intercourse bétween Venezuela and England, and also has stipulated for an expression of regret for the Yuruan incident. Whether the en- tire boundary dispute be eventually sub- mitted to arbitration or some compromise be substituted for the Schomburgk line might be left an open question; but con- fidence was expressed in the lobbies that some form of adjustment would speedily be effected, honorable and satisfactory te all parties.
