ARBITRATION JIOPED PRESIDENT ROOSE- VELT WILL ACT. No Change in the Situation--The Powers Are Asking For Pay- ment on a Claim Each as Evidence of Good Faith. New York, Dec. 26.--The Tribune's Lon lon cable says: It is not" antidi- pated, even in the most pessimistic quarters, that the Venezuelan afiair will cause any ill-iveling between DBri- tain and the United States. President Roosevel.'s decision on the arbitration question is eagerly awaited, and it is stil hoped that he will see his way to accepting the post of arbitrator. The Hague tribunal is regarded as an admirable court for the purpose of arbitration, but the prevalent view in political circles here is that its award would carry little weight with Presi- dent Castro. A later despatch to the Tribune says : There is no definite change in the Venezuelan situation, but it is now regarded, on all sides, as certain that a settlement is relatively immi- nent. The London Daily Mail sugurests that it will take the form of the pay- ment, by Venezuela, of the small sum of about £16,000 hich, it is under- stood is demanded initially by the powers and the reference of oll other question to arbitration in soms form or another.

A number of the Little Salmon Indians were murdered on the spot, others were followed and killed while thev were ficeing for safety, and a smaller num- ber effected their escape. Survivors returned to the home vil- lage and the women and childien were hurried to the police post at Tantalus for safety. Little definite néws was received regarding the attack on the store, which occurred on December Ist, and vague reports received by the police state that the housekeeper was shot and killed and his assistant, who was wounded, fled to the woods, but being unprepared for the cold, would probably die. The store was looted and burned. treme remem TRIBUTE TO THE BRAVE. Monument Erected to Memory of Capt. Milligan.

Re- inforcements amounting to 12,000 men, he says, will leave Fez to-morrow and an additional force of irregular cav- alry has been called out. Many tribes not already in rebellion, are wavering and ave ready to join the rebels in the event of a serious government defeat.
