SENATOR DAVIS TALks
Position This Country Should Take on tn

Position This Country Should Take on the
Venezuelan Question.
ST. PAUL, Oct. 21.-In the course of
an interview on the Venezuelan mat
ter, Senator G. K. Davis, for long
time chairman of the senate COM
mittee on foreign affairs, said:
Considering the present situation in
Venezuela and the action of the Brit
ish government on the seizure of
Corinto, 1 say most confidently that
the United States ought to intervene
in this business, or formally, and by
proclamation, abandon the Monroe
doctrine as scarecow which will no
longer frighten"
Senator Davis gave, at considerable
length, the history of the original an
nouncement of this doctrine by Presi-
dent Monroe, and outlined the troubles
over the boundaries between British
Guiana and Venezuela, adding:
81 do not apprehend any war with
England arising out of existing con-
ditions, nor out of anything which we
can foresee. She is prudent nation
with all her energy. She has given
the dominion of Canada as hostage
of peace to the United States, far out
valuing the utmost that she can hope
to obtain or inflict by war. I think
that firm demonstrates, an attitude 80
unyielding it will demonstrate the5cer-
tainty of warlike action as thefilast
extremity, will repress aggression, ass
sert our dignity, secure our safety and
vindicate our principles" 49,

The Olympic Volcano.

PORT TOWNSEND, Wash, Oct. TO-
Further evidence of an active volcano
in the Olympic mountains has been
received, and serves to confirm the re-
port of Professor Alexander, of the
Smithsonian institution, Two young
men of this city, Ben Pettygrove and
Charles Sally, are just from the olym-
pic mountains, and report that after
experiencing series of slight earth
quake shocks, covering perion of Two
weeks, flames and huge volumes of
black smoke were observed ascending
from one of the small peaks. Flames
would shoot spasmodically up for a
few hundred feet and the dense vol
umes of black smoke would belch
forth. These operations were repeated
every ten minutes. South of Port
Townsend last night the sky was clear,
and the volcanic phenomena were wit
messed by dozens of people.

A STRANGE FISH.
Unable to Live Within a Mile of the Seas
Surface.

Surface.
SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 21.-The fish
commissions steamer Albatross has
returned from the North with a pop
eyed denizen of the deep that is Ger.
tain to be the wonder of the natura-
lists the world over. 1t is fish, but
utterly unlike anything ever caught
before. 1t was scooped up in a dredge
that was at the time travelling along
the bottom of the ocean mile and
half deep. Professor Townsend, the
learned man, who had fit of ecstacy
when this peculiar marine monster was
removed from the net to the deck of
the Albatross, is of the opinion that
the fish would not be able to live
much higher up in the water than
where it was found. Such is the make
up of the fish that the professor ina
gines it must have felt sharp pains
whenever it came anywhere within
mile of the surface of the sea.
Certain it is that the very act of
bringing this fish to the surface of the
sea killed it. When the enormous
pressure was taken off, its vital organs,
its heart and everything else within it
began to puff up. Its bladder was
forced partly out its mouth, and its
eyes were driven forward out of their
sockets.
The fish will be forwarded to the
Smithsonian institution.

Not Yet Ended.

LONDON, Oct. 18.-Up to 8 o'clock
this afternoon the Barnato share set.
tlement passed without any special in
cident, although trouble was appre-
hended. Barnato helped several
brokers tide over settlement by sup
porting the market himself. There
was scarcely bright spot in the list
of stocks, but, the mining slump has
been arrested for the moment by at
tentlon being devoted to Barnatos in
hich the difference to be faced is sup
posed to be enormous. The feeling is
one of great anxiety, which is not re-
lieved by the impression prevalent in
Paris that the mining market has not
seen the worst. In spite of this,
changes today were not important.

BEGINNING OF THE END. (
Witnesses For Durrant Have All Been Er-
amined

amined
SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 22.-General
Dickinson this morning announced
that he had no further witnesses to
call in defense of Theodore Durrant.
Calling witnesses in rebuttal was
therefore begun by the prosecution.
The first step was to..refute the state
ment of Durrant that the trustees of
the church, when called to the stand,
testified that they did not ask Durrant
to make repairs.
G. W.Dodge, medical student, tes-
titled that on the afternoon of April I3
he saw Durrant at the ferry, and the
prisoner told him he was waiting for
members of the signal crops, whom he
expects from Oakland.
G. A. Dukes, who accompanied
Dodge, corroborated this testimony.
The testimony is important, from the
fact that Durrant said when on the
stand that he was at the ferry fort
purpose of searching for Blanche La
mont, who, q mysterious stranger had
told him, would cross the bay that
afternoon.
A. A .Hobe, an old schoolmate. of
Durrant, testified that on the same
afternoon he saw the prisoner at the
ferry in company with a young woman
who answered the description of Min
ME Williams. Minnie Williams came
over from her home in Alameda that
night, and the next day her body was
found in Emanuel church. The theory
OF the prosecution is that, instead of
being at the ferry to follow up clew
of Blanche Lamont, Durrant was there
for the purpose of meeting Miss Will
Jams and Turing her to her death
E. A. Glaser, student at the, medi-
cal college, testified that on April 10
Durrant' asked him to read his notes to
Durrant, who devoted three-quarters
of an hour to writing them in his note
book. Defense tried to show that 1t
was the custom. or students to COM
pare notes, but Glaser said Durrant
read nothing that purported TO be his
own notes.
District Attorney Barnes said today
at noon that the testimony in rebuilt
tai would be finished by tomorrow
night. The argument Of the case will,
therefore, probably begin the last Of
the week.
