not to Interfere using these remarkable
words

patch from Paris gives an account of an
Interview with M Hanotnux tho formn
Trench minister of torelgn affairs In
which he Is quoted ns saying referring
to the Venezuelan dispute that he
thought u question of this character
ought to bo Bettled on Its merits and not
on a question of principle
M llanotatix Is quoted as having add-
ed that any bearing which Monroeism
might have upon this particular ca e was
a matter for Great llrltaln and tho
United States to settle Ho expressed the
moul Implicit confidence that the Mar-
quis of Salisbury would dud n Mntlsfic
tory solution for tha difficulty without
having lucourso to war
When lie was asked what In his opin
ion would be the result It tho United
States should Interfere In the bonndaiy
dispute between Trance and Drnzll M
Ilnnotaux replied that he nnd M Her
thelot the present minister for foreign
affairs were of the opinion that If tha
diputc became ncute it ought to bo set-
tled by arbitration
M Hanotnux la then quoted as saying
In the dispute between France and
Venezuela which however was not of
a territorial character the United States
sought to Interfere As foreign minister
1 resisted such Intervention and simply
demanded thnt we b allowed to settle
with Venezuela direct without any Borl
of Interferenco by a third party

If kinsmen unfortunately differed some
times they lecome very hitter enemies
lint theie wan leassuianco he said In
tho fact that he did not believe tlio peopio
