other night the coffee had been slipped and the
men were becoming weary of the tardinsss in

remarked that lamp was smoking. Happy

THE OLD NEW HAMPSHIRE
The squadron left Boston on Mast Sunday. the
Atlanta going to New London to CONVOY the
old receiving ship New Hampshire to New York
where she is to be used as quarters for the 4OC
men Of the New York naval reserves during
their annual drills next week. The old ship
was long since dismantled and rooted over
and was used for several years as the training
ship for boys at Newport, R. /. Two years ago
she was taken to New London and moored 10
the dock at the naval station, but little or no
use was made Of her there. She was built in
1918 and saw service in tbs Mexican war and
the rebellion also. An officer Of the Atlanta as
he viewed the New Hampshire towering ..four

enterprising person would purchase her and.
fitting her up as a summer resort hotel. anchor

ANOTHER CABINET OFFICE,

The Department of Commerce and
Trade, Likely to BE Established.
WASHINGTON, April 2.-Serious atten-
tion is Icing given the suggestion of the
state board of trade of Massachusetts
that another cabinet Office should be
created-"the department of commerce
and trade"
The last and eighth cabinet Office
created, that of agriculture, has given
SO much satisfaction that, coupled with
the fact, it is proposed to make the ninth
one out of surplus interests in the over
crowded treasury department. There is
much said in its favor.
Reciprocity and the enlargement of
new and domestic markets generally
have created the demand for the new
trade department. 1t is complained
that owing to the want of some dis
tinctive department of this character
the commerce of the country is sub
jected increasingly, from year to year,
to unreasonable interference and vexa-
tious delays, and it is argued that these
would be either wholly done away with
or greatly alleviated through the intelli-
gent action such department as has
been proposed, while relief would be
afforded to the treasury department now
overburdened with multifarious duties.

Mr.. Wilcox, of Connecticut, chairman

Mr.. Enloe thought that the census

should be appointed for the purpose.
He favored the resolution as reported.
Mr.. Hayes. of Iowa, thought that

PANAMA, April "A French steam
ship which has just arrived here brings
authentic news Of the uprising in Vene-
zuela againgt President Palacio. The
officers say that the country is in an an
archistic condition and that life and
property in the vicinity of Caracas are
in constant peril.
The rumors of q recent battle between
President Palacio's troops and insur-
gents under General Joaquin Crespo are
confirmed. The battle was fought near
Caracas and lasted for three hours. At
first Crespos forces were successful and
drove the government troops steadily
back up the road to the city. Reinforce
ments for Palacios army arrived as the
retreat was being made and the govern
ment troops made stand on the wooded
hill. Crespo's men were outnumbered
almost three to one, the government
having $500 troops to their 5000. They
tried to storm the position on the knoll
three times but were driven back with
loss of 800. The government troops
then took the offensive and followed the
insurgents, who retreated, leaving 300
dead ON the field.
The insurgents retreated toward east
ing another insurgent army, which is
said to be 5000 strong. Detachments of
government troops went in pursuit and
several skirmishes took place, in which
the revolutionists repulsed Palacio's
men. The revolution is spreading and
the insurgent forces are augmented
daily.
In eastern Zamora the people are TAX
ing sides with Crespo and many soldiers
have deserted the government. Crespo,
the French officer, has the reputation of
being the lest general in Venezuela.
He is a brave fighter, but his policy at
present is to remain inactive while his
forces are swelled by deserters from
Palacio's army and by discontented citi-
zens. Even the most loyal citizens have
been rendered restless by the despotic
measures to which Palacio has resorted
to suppress the rebellion. Spies Of the
government are everywhere, and hardly
a day passes without the arrest of. some
conspicuous man for utterances sup
posed to reflect on the government.
The prisons are crowded and the news
papers are muzzled.
Large quantities of arms have been
landed recently ON the coast near
Cabello. They are of American make
and are known to have been distributed
among Crespo's troops. When he shall
have recruited and armed his forces
sufficiently Tor long campaign, Crespo,
it is believed intends to march at once ON
Valencia, the capital of Carabobo, or
upon Caracas. The government is pre-
pairing for desperate defense of both
cities. The garrison in each has been
doubled, and men are at work night and
day throwing up earth works.
Extraordinary supplies have been
stored in the government buildings in
both cities, aud tho roads have been
fianked for distance of thirty miles
with small detaeliments of soldiers.
The goyernhenr has an overhowing
treasury. anl is supplied with an abun-

dance OF small arms and a considerable
number of cannon. The insurgents
have comparatively few field guns.
Both Valencia and Caracas are already
governed as if in state of siege, Spies
are in every place of public resort and
have made their way into private house,
holds, Arrests are made without APP
parent cause and men are held prisoners
without examination or trial. Conspic-
uous men not in full sympathy with the
government fear to go alone in the
streets at night for fear of being seized
and locked up on false charges. Many
have left the city to escape such fate
after having been warned that the gov
ernment spies were watching them.
The French officers say that the cause
of the revolution is popular one, and
that in case of two or three victories for
Crespo the great majority of the people
would throw off the semblance of 10y
atty and Join their fortunes with his.
The government has more money and
better drilled troops than the revolu-
tionists and the issue of the conflict is
therefore uncertain. AT all events, they
say, the struggle will be long one.
