OF REPUBLIC'S COAS T WILL END TR ——— REPRESENTATIVES OF VENEZUELA AND THE ALLIED POWERS, WHO HAVE ARRIVED AT AN AGREEMENT FOR A PEACEFUL SETTLE- *MENT OF DISPUTED QUESTIONS BY THE HAGUE TRIBUNAL. ASHINGTON, Feb. 13.—Her bert W. Bowen, Venezuela's representative in the peace | negotiations in Washington, t night signed with each | of the allies’ representatives ‘a protocol | providing for the immediate raising of the Venezuelan block: and for the reference of the question of preferential treatment of the claims of the allles against Venezuela to The Hague arbitra- tion tribunal. The final formalities curred at the British Embassy. At 11:30 o’clock last night Herbert Deer- oc- basey, announced that the British pro- tocol had just been signed and that the signature of the Italian and German protocols would follow in . the order named. The Itallan protocol was signed at 11:50 and the German protocol at 12:10 | o’clock, the presence of Baron Sternberg at the White House musicale delaying a final close to the negotiations until after midnight. The British protocol was in | English, the Italian in Itallan and the | German in German and Englisn. Bowen signed in duplicate for Venezuela, S8ir Michael Herbert for Great Britain, Signor Mayor des Planches for Italy and Baron Speck von Sternberg for Germany. BLOCKADE ENDS TO-DAY. Immediately on the signing of the last protocol cables were dispatched to Lon- don, Berlin and Rome announcing the | fact. It is expected that the commanders | of the blockading fléet within the next twenty-four hours will receive their or- ders to withdraw their vessels at once. By the provision of these preliminary protocols, which have required more than three weeks of constant negotiations, Venezuela makes two distinct gains—the immediate raising of a blockade, from which she has been suffering for some weeks, and the return of all her vessels, | war and merchant, which have been cap tured by the allled fleet. | Great Britain, Germany and Ttaly re- ceived advance payments of £5500 each, Great Britain receiving her payment on {the signature of the protocol and Ger- | many and Italy within thirty and sixty days from date. Germany, in addltion, will receive five monthly payments until the full amount paid her in advance ag- gregates $340,00. As a guaranty for the satisfaction of their claims Bowen pledges the allies a share with the other creditor nations in 30 per cent of the customs re- ceipts of the two ports of La Guaira and Puerto Cabello. This percentage will be set aside beginning March 1 and retained in the Venezuelan treasury until The | number: ing, first secretary of the British Em- | tribunal shall have decided whether it shall be distributed without preference among t claimant nations, | or ‘whether the allied powers of Great Britain, Germany and Italy shall receive preferential payments. ~ SETTLEMENT WITH ITALY.

Great Brit- ain has left her protocol unchanged since it was approved by the London Forelgn Office some days ago. 1t is stipulated by the protocols that the claims of the creditor nations shall be|presigent Cabrera of Guatemala, the ru- | adjudicated by joint commissions, to con- sist in each instance of a Venezuelan, a | of the claimant power | and, in case of disagreement, an umplre, !te be named by the President of the| | 1 | | | United States. The protocols in providing for reference of the question of preferential treatment to The Hague do not state in detail the methods of procedure by which the case s to be laid before that tribunal. This will be done in a second set of protocols, | the preparation of which will begin at once. It is provided, however, that not Venezuela alone, but all the other na- tions, shall be permitted to appear before | the tribunal in oppesition to the ailies’ claim for preferential treatment. On the signing of the protocols to-night | ngratulations were exchanged by the four negotiators. Bowen then dispatched a brief cablegram to President Castro in- | forming him of the signature of the pro- tocols providing for the immediate raising of the blockade. e BALFOUR PROFFERS ADVICE. LIVERPOOL, Feb. 13.—Premier Balfour, in a speech at a luncheon given by the Conservative Club here to-day, declared the British Government had no choice but to take action against Venezuela.
