Feb. 22.-The arbitration tribunal, which has been considering the claims of the blockading powers for prefer ential treatment of the claims against Veneruela, has decided unanimously that the three blockading powers, Great Britain, Germany and Italy, have a right to a preference of 30 per cent of the customs duties at I -a Ouynra and Puerto Cabello, the litigants to pay their own costs In the procedure and divide equally the costs of the tribunal. The Cnlted States Is com missioned to carry out the decision of the tribunal within three months. In giving Judgment the tribunal points out that it has been guided by international law and the equity of the case, and that the protocols signed at Washington since February 13, 1903, and particularly the protocol of May 7, whereof the obligatory nature cannot be doubtful, form the legal basis ef Its sentence; that the tribunal Is not competent to question the Jurisdic tion of mixed commissions at Caracas, or to Judge their action or the character of the warlike operations of the blockading powers nor exhausted all pacific means to prevent the necessity of employing force. Venezuela Refused Arbitration, The tribunal decides that It is only in a position to certify that since 1901 Ven ezuela refused arbitration proposed on sev eral occasions by Germany and Great Britain, that, after the war no formal treaty of peace was concluded; that the operations of the blockaders were stopped before they had received satisfaction for all their claims, and. further, that the question of preferential treatment was sub mitted to arbitration. The trlbunnl declares that it found and recognized In these facts evidence In favor of the. great principle of arbitration In all phases of International conflict. In ad hering to the protocols the blockaders could not have Intended to renounce their acquired rights, or their privileged, de facto position. The government of Ven ezuela Itself had recognized In principle the well foundedneas of their claims, while It had not recognized those of the non blockading powers, and until the end of January, 1903, made not the slightest pro test against the claims for preferential treatment. Throughout the diplomatic negotiations Venezuela, constantly distinguished between the allied powers and the neutrals. These latter, tot having been protested against tho claims for preference of the blockad ing powers, either at the time the war stopped, nor Immediately after the signing of the protocol of February 13, the gov ernment of Venezuela only agreed In respect to the tilled powers to offer spe cial guarantets for the fulfillment of Us engagement. Secures Only Claims of Allies, The good faith which should direct In ternational lelatlons imposes the duty on the tribunal of declaring that the words "All claims," employed by the Venezuelan representative In the negotiations with the representatives of the allied powers, could relate only to the latter powers. Neutrals could tn some respect profit by the cir cumstances created .by the . operations , of the war without acquiring new rights, the rights already acquired remaining abso lutely Intact In the decision the United States Is charged merely to supervise the carrying of the decision regarding costs. After the delivery of the decision, Tresl- den Muravleff. the Russlnn minister of Jus tlce, In a short speech declared that the findings had been reached after a most minute and most Impartial Investigation. Like all human acts, he added, the de cision was susceptible to criticism, but now It was made, every one should accept It. The arbitration begun In times of peace had ended amidst, the sinister acts of war, which wa& a terrible obstacle In tho path of light and progress. In spite of all good will, alas, no one was secure against an ti pected hostile attack. A ration was obliged to accept a war when the legltl mate defense of honor and liberty was In volved. The Just providence which ruled over battles will distinguish between right and unfounded pretentions. At the end of this war between a European and Asi&tlo people the light will shine out afresh. The president concluded with saying that The Hague arbitration tribunal remains always the rampart of Justice, truth and reason and the sublime hope of the future, Washington llrgrrets Decision. WASHINGTON. Feb. 22. -A prominent official of the State department, when shown the dispatch relative to the de clslon In the Venezuelan arbitration, stated that while the department re greted exceedingly the precedent which The Hague tribunal had made In this case, there was nothing for the Cnlted Stat to do but accept the result philosophically as binding in International law. The mere question of time when the United States Bhnll receive from Venezuela the amount of the awards In our favor was the small est consideration. What the government disliked was to admit the principle that by a mere show of naval force a creditor na tlon can secure precedence la the payment of debt over another nation which does not exerilse such force. It Is regarded as a premium nn violence and as tending to discourage nations which are disposed to settle their claims by the peaceful methods of diplomacy. The Venezuelan government, while the principal party nominally tn the proceed Ing before The Hague tribunal, was really rather Indifferent as to which power should be paid first, recognising the fact that they must all be paid In some order. That government has been carytng out the un dertaking reached In the protocols which terminated the alllea' Intervention, to set apart 30 per cent of the custom receipts at LaGuayra and Puerto Cabello month to month, and the money has been placed In bank awaiting this decision. The fund up to date will be turned over to Germany, England and Italy, as well as 30 per cent of customs collections at the ports named. until the claims of these powers shall be satisfied In full. This probably will take about two years and after that the claims of non-allied or peace powers will be taken up and paid pro rata. Travelers Organise at Hastings.

Hoagland threw op on her home at Sixteenth and Howard streets yesterday afternoon for the annual "birth day" party of the Visiting Nurses' associa tion and between t and 5 o'clock the spa clous rooms were filled with a gathering that would have been notable even for another than the Denton season. While the birthday party Is one of the conspicuous annual social functions, none of those of previous years have surpassed yesterday aftornoon's reception In point of attend ance or an a financial success, though the exact proceeds have not as yet been an nounced.

"It Is a little curious that, In this centen nial year of the Louisiana purchase," says the New York Post, "the house built In 1S07 In St. Ixiuls by Captain Clarke, who lived In It until his death In 1S38, should be torn down and little or no notice should be taken of It. The old house, It Is said, Is now being removed to make way for a race track. From 1813 to 1821 Captain Clarke was territorial governor of Mis souri, and for some time afterwards acted as superintendent of Indian affairs. Many noted people visited his house and It was there that the treaty providing for the removal of the Osage Indian from Mis souri to the Indian territory was signed.

BERLIN, Feb. 22.-Tho debate which be gan in the Reichstag January 19 regarding the police surveillance of Russian students In Germany was resumed today In the Prussian Diet, and the Prussian minister of Justice, Dr. Schoenstedt, and the Prus sian minister of the Interior, Frelherr von Hammersteln, went at length Into the allegations made In the Reichstag by Herr Haass (social democrat), Herr Rebel, the socialist leader In the Reichstag, and oth ers. The minister explained the action of the government In this matter so satisfac torily that they won the approval of the opposition speaker. Dr. Schoenstedt gave a full statement of the reasons for the ar rest of a number of socialists at Koenlgs burg, which had aroused much bitter de nunciation from the socialist speakers In the Relchstug. He said the state attorneys of East Prussia had long been aware of the ex istence of a system of smuggling undesir able literature into Russia and an exam ination had resulted In the finding of ex tensive deposits of these pamphlets hid den In various border towns. They suc ceeded In securing a number of these doc uments, most of which had been prepared In Switzerland and translated into Russian and Lithuanian.

Dr. Schoenstedt read a passage from one document which expressly advo cated murder, and quoted the following passage: "I prefer, however, that Nicholas II. should not die by a bullet, but rather be reserved for the scaffold." A search of houses where this literature was found brought out the fact that twelve or thirteen persons engaged in the smug gling were all social democrats, and corre spondence was seised which points very strongly to the assumption that they were acting under orders of the party manag-, ers. Frelherr von Hammersteln In his ad dress referred to a small book that had been seised, which gave minute directions for the organising of murderous plots. Re ferring to the charge that the Prussian government In expelling suspected Rus sians had Bent thpm out of the country across the Russian frontier Instead of per mitting them to choose the frontier by ' which they should leave, said it was a general rule to permit expelled persons to choose their frontier, but that exception was made in the case of anarchists. All states, he declared, are united In their ef forts to combat anarchy, and special ' agreements exist that expulsion shall be to the country where the Individual was born, so as not to work Injustice to other state. After the minister of the Interior con cluded a few short addresses were made and everyone expressed satisfaction with the government.
