TO CHASE THE SOUTH PORTLAND.
venesue1a's Minister Secures a Fast Yacht
 to Go in Pursuit.

V0neEU6AaB m1u1BE0r secures U p 8BC GaCnL
 to Go in Pursuit.
 NEW YORK, Sep. 23.-Senor Bolet- Peraza, the Venezuelan Minister, is very indignant over the fact that the steamer South Portland was allowed to sail with arms for the Venezuelan insurgents.
 To reporter he said that he had all proofs ready and asked that the vessel be ibelled, but the authorities practically ignored him.
 He further stated that a vessel had been chartered to pursue the South Port land. This vessel, he said, would sail to- morrow night.
 The vessel has been rendered to the Consul by wealthy citizen.
 She is yacht, and very fast.
 He further stated that he was negotiat- ing for the purchase of two rifed cannon of 8 size much larger than those carried be the South Portland.
 In regard to the abandoning of the Whiting for this purpose, the Minister said that she was unsuitable. He said ] that his son, Carlos C. Belot, Secretary of the Legation, would sail on the yacht, and that General Castro Ybarra, who was formerly Consul at Liverpool, and who has had considerable military ex- perience would accompany him.
 In addition to the two rifled cannon, the Minister said, the yacht would carry a supply of small arms ard plenty of am intuition.
 He declared that the South Portland would be seized as soon as she reached Venezuelan waters.
 The yacht, he said, would follow the South Portland closely, and see that she did not transfer the arms to any other yes sel.
 The Minister thought it probable that | the yacht, which, he declared, had a steel | prov, might ram and sink the South Portland.

WORKINGS OF The NEW TARIFF

To Be Investigated at Once by Mr.. Springer
and His Committee.
WASHINGTON. D. c., Jan. 22.-[Special.
Mr.. Springer has called special meet
ing of fhe House Committee on Ways and
Means for tomorrow morning to hear Act
ing Secretary of the Treasury Spaulding set
forth the condition of the National Treas
ury and the state of the Government
finances, with particular reference to re-
ceipts from customs in certain lines under
the Mckinley tariff law. Secretary Fos-
ter is still at Fortress Monroe recuperating
his shattered health, and therefore Mr.
Spaulding, who is perhaps more familiar
than his chief with the matters upon which
information is desired, has been invited to
appear in his stead. He Will be accom-
panied by several Treasury experts, all
primed and loaded with facts and figures
concerning the amount Of apparent surplus
cash now in the Treasury vaults, the alleged
juggling of the monthly debt statements
issued by the Treasury and the prospects of
revenue receipts from customs and internal
taxes for the coming fiscal year.
This information, Mr.. Springer SAYS, is
absolutely necessary before the Committee
on WAYS and Means can set to work intelli-
gently in the preparation of any bills de-
signed to change the existing tariff, in
whole or in part Several of the more
prominent economists of the House who
took part in last weeks debate ON the con-
dition of the Treasury have also been in
vited to be present, and it is expected that
there will be a lively time, partaking some
what of the nature of cross-examination
in court, and in other respects of general
debating society.

A NEW PLAN FOR LYNcHING.
The Missouri Mob Will Probably Burr
TheiS Man at the Stake.

The Missouri Mob Will Probably Burn
Theis Man at the Stake.
NEVADA, Mo-, Jan. 22.-When the 7:3C
Missouri Pacific train arrived here thi.
evening, mob of $50 men from Barton
county got off, proceeded to the county
Jail and demsnded that the Sheriff
turn over to them Hepler, the man who
murdered Mrs Goodly and her little son in
that county last Sunday. The Sheriff made
some resistance, but the mob proceeded to
knock in the door with tools which they
had secured by breaking into a blacksmith
shop near by.
The Sheriff, having been previously
warned that the mob was coming, had Sc
creted the prisoner in an outhouse, but the
mob soon gained admittance and brought
Hepler forth. They hurried him down
the railroad to Nassau Junction, ex-
pecting to board the train and take their
prisoner back to Barton county, where they
intend to burn him at a stake. About half
an hour after the mob took the man, Sheriff
White gathered posse, including Com
Danv H., First Regiment, M. n.
G., and started to overhaul the mob.
In order to shut off communica-
tiOn to this place, the mob, in coming
to this point, tagged the train between here
and Lamars and boarded it. The mob made
no noise or demonstration while getting the
prisoner. Sheriff Garrett, of Barton county,
to-day had talk with Bepler in Jail, and
the prisoner confessed to having murdered
the woman and child, but said he did not
know what he did it for.

Iney Deny Ihere Is Any Truth in Reports
of Combinations.
NEW YORK, Jan. 22.-[Special. THE re-
port was revived in Wall street to-day that
the Claus Spreckels establishment in Phila-
delphia and the Franklin Company had
Joined hands with the American Sugar
Refining Company. The officers of the
latter company declined to speak on the
subject. Willett & Gray, authorities on
these subjects, said: "There have been no
negotiations opened for the purchase of the
Franklin refinery, and we believe its pur-
chase, if practicable, is not contemplated
and would be undesirable at the
valuation that would be placed upon
it. 1t would simply stimulate new
refining enterprises in Philadelphia
for competition or sale. The case is
different with the Spreckels refinery, which
has always shown an out-and-out fighting
disposition for an outlet for its production,
and is likely to remain constantly in the
way of its competitors profits to the extent
of its capacity (Which has lately been in
creased), unless some means can be devised
of obtaining the controlling interest, which
undoubtedly still remains with Claus
Spreckels, although minority interest of
sugar or bonds is generally supposed to
have passed into hands friendly to the
American Sugar Refining Company early
in 1891, at about the same time as the Cali
fornia combination of refners was eli
fected."

Florida Superintendent of the Western
Union, arrived here on Tuesday last In
anticipation of the landing here OF the
first ocean cable from the CITY

The English steamer Westmeath, under
charter to Sir Ambrose Shea, Governor of

about January IA.
AT IL o'clock this forenoon she was

The Life-saving Crew at Nantucket Battle
for Hours With Waves.
NANTUCKET, MASS, Jan. .22.-[ Special J.
The life-saving crew on this island had a

vANDERBILT's YACHT.

Interesting Questions at q Hearing in a
United States Court-The Matter al
Stake Question of Duty on Pleasure
Boat Under the Mckinley Bill.
New YORK, Jan. 22.-GSpecial 1.-The ar
gument in the Conqueror case was laid be-
fore United States Judge Brown in the
District Court to-day. United States At
torney Mitchell argued for the Collector
and Elihu Root for Mr. Vanderbilt.
Mr.. Mitchell said the bill of sale
of the yacht had been indorsed by the
American Consul, so that the American
flag might be sported, and the bill of sale
was also Endorsed by Collector Erhardt at
this port, SO that the American
flag might be flown in American
waters. This seemed to show disposition
on the part of Mr. Vanderbilt to import the
yacht and thereafter use it for purposes of
pleasure as an American vessel. Mr.,
Mitchell said that he did not venture to say
act the Conqueror became dutable
Mr. Root, for the ibellant, contended
that the word ''articles'' in the Mckinley
bill did not include vessels.
Why" asked Mr.. Root, 'do not the
Cunard and White Star steamships come
under this law, if the word articles in
cludes vessels? They come into our waters
and sail out again freely and without let or
hindrance"
Judge Brown asked several questions
'Then your point is" said the Judge to
Mr. Mitchell, 'that if a man wants to fly
the American flag he must first pay duties.
Until then he may sail around in these
waters with impunlty."
Eyes, returned Mr.. Mitchell, "until the
owner of a foreign hull yacht brought over
here pays duties on it he cannot be entitled
to fly the American flag or seek the
protection of the United States. The yacht
remains foreign one, though owned by an
American citizen, and not until the duties
are paid is the yacht legally American
property"
Judge Brown reserved his decision.

There is a mistaken impression
abroad that Tales From Z0,on Top
ics." although clever, bright, witty and
not unirequently wise, are little too
much akin to modern French litera-
ture to be proper reading for a serious
people. This is mistake, as any one
will discover who reads the stories in
question. 1t is true that they avoid
the absolute drab-colored prudery of
the modern English short story, but in
evading this shoal they do not run on
the equally offensive one Of modern
French license. The fourth volume tf
this series is just published, and its con-
tents show that the art and talent of
