English Opinion

London, Oct. 22- The Standard, confcrvative, has an editorial on the Venezuelan question, in which it says: "The Venezuelan ultimatum is unlikelytolea] to prolonged or doubtful complicauons. The convention of 1850 has been repeatedly infringed by the Venezuelans in encroaching upon soil indisputably British. These galling and high-handed acts might have been overlooked had not the outrages by the Venezuelan authorities reached lengths no longer endurable. If such an aggression as the Urman affair is to be ignored we might as well abandon British Guiana. We shall be surprised if the responsible diplomats of the United States persist in maintaining that the Monroe doctrine has any bearing on the present case." The Times and the Chronicle print articles explaining in detail the position of the Venezuelan matter, the latter paper especially as regards the American point of view, as indicated by Ihe official reports issued from Washngton. "There is no doubt," the Chronicle continúes, "that the United States is determined to bring about an early seitiement of the dispute. No answer to Mr. Bayard's dispatch to Lord Salisbury has yet been received at the embassy."
