British Warship Royal Arthur
Touches at Panama
ENFORCE BRITAIN'S DEMANDS
The Vessel Is One of the New Monsters
of the Navy
Carries the Flag of an Admiral and Has Powder
Enough on Board to Blow the
Isthmus Off of the Earth

WASHINGTON, April 5.-Reports that
the British warship Royal Arthur has
touched at Panama on her way to Mica
ragua to enforce British demands cause
some apprehension among officials and
diplomats where. The Royal Arthur is
the flagship of the Pacific squadron and
carries Rear Admiral Stephenson. X. g.
B., commander of the fleet. although Cap
tain Frederick French is in immediate
command. She is one of the new mon
sters of the British navy, having a ton
mage of II, 900. There is no official con-
firmation here of the Royal Arthur's S
movements, as the reports OF navy
changes do not come here.
The opinion is expressed by those IA
miliar with the situation that if Great
Britain resorts to- force, all the Central
American republics will tender their SER
vices to Nicaragua
MINNEAPOLIS. April 5.-A represen-
tative of the Journal, who visited Mayor
Grant of Fari bault, Minnesota a few days
ago, obtained inter estng information
about the treaty concessions at the mouth
of the Orinoco river i'll Venezuela, which
Mr.. Grant and his associates have Sc
cured. Mr.. Grant DENIES with consider
able vigor the assertions made IN Wash
ington that the concession is in anv way
involved in the international com plica-
tions between Venezuela and England.
Nearly all of the land which is granted to
the syndicate to be improved and colo
nized has always belonged to Venezuela
and has never been clailnd by England.
MI. Grant admitted however, that small
corner of the concession had been settled
on by the English but it was the least
valuable and no trouble wnuld arise out
of the fact. He adds that the concession
is really eleven years old, having been
granted to J. A. Bowman in 1894, who
has been interested in it with Austin
Corbin.
After some work had been done in i'm
proving the privileges granted the revo-
luton broke out which finally put Crespo
in power and nothing was done. The
"trip which Mr.. Grant, with Bowman and
W. III. Fisher has just taken, was TO have
the concession confirmed and THE dlverg-
ent interests harmonized. In this they
were successful and expect to improve
their privileges, if the talk about inter
national complications or a war with
England does not interfere. The conces-
sion includes valuable iron mines, great
forests of mahogany, rosewood and an
island at the mouth of the Orinoco in
which there are valuable asphalt wells. 1t
is also believed that there is gold in pay
ing quantities. The Venezuelan congress
adTourns June 18th and Mr.. Grant expects
to go there again before that date to close
up the negotiations.

SILVER AND LEAD ORE
prepaxatisns to Put the New Tariff Law
Into Execution


WASHINGTON, April 5.-The Treasury
Department is making preparations to
put into execution the provision of the
tariff law requiring THAT silver and lead
ore imported into the United States be
assayed and sampled at the port of entry.
Representatives of the lead producing
states, headed by Senator Dubois, made a
vigorous fight for this requirement when
the tariff bill was before Congress, con-
tending that without this provision it
was possible to bring large quantities of
lead into the country without requiring
the payment of any duty whatever. The
original provisions of the tariff bill, pro-
vding only for duty on lead ore where
value of the lead IN ore was greater than
any other metal in it, were especially OBJ
iectionable to those who sought protection
against Mexican portauons. The bill
was amended in the Senate, and as it be-
came law, provides that a duty OF three
fourths of cent pound on all lead ore
where combin with silver ores or ores
of other metals. The amount OF lead is
TO be ascertained by sam ping and assays
at the port of entry. The faw says: The
method of sampling and assaying is to be
that usually adopted for commercial pur-
poses by the public sam piing works in
the United States. Assay ing and SIAM
pling will be let to the lowest responsible
bidders at the various ports at which
silver-lead ore is Imported, Ell Paso, Tex,
being the principal one.
