Manipulating Mexican Railroads.

Monclova, Mexico, Feb. 26-The work of
constructing branch lines of the Mexican
international railroad from this place to
Sierra Mojada and from Reita to Mon
terey has been suspended by President c.
P. Huntington. It is said that he and his
associates have been trying to get con-
troll by purchase or lease of the Monterey
e. Mexico Gulf railroad, one of the most
profitable railroad properties in Mexico,
and it is hinted that the building of these
expensive proposed joint branch lines of
the Mexican international was an attempt
to bluff the owners of the Monterey &
Mexico Gulf into making the deal.

THE RISE IN OIL.
Said to BE Caused by the "Crushing Out"
Policy of the Standard.

Said to BE Caused by the "Crushing Out"
Policy of the Standard.
Boston, April lS.-The Standard
publishes all interview with Foster D..
Edwards, agent Of the Commercial Re-
fining company in this city and one OF
the leading representatives Of the indie
pendent oil interests, concerning the
rise i'll oil. Mr.. Edwards said in part:
The immediate cause of the advance
is that the supply is not equal to the
demand, but the scarcity was brought
Out by the attempt of the trust to crush
its competitors out Of existence. The
reason the Standard Oil company has
been able to manipulate the oil industry
as it has, is because it unites in it's
business all three branches-pro-
ducing, refining and Distributing
whereas these several branches were
not combined in interest among the III.
dependent dealers. My idea at first
was that the Standard people were
afraid that if they continued to keep
the prices down, the producers, refners
and distributors would unite for the
protection Of each other, and I don't
know but ! am right"

TELEGRAPHlNG PICTURES.
A Successful Experiment. Made in Cali

A Successful Experiment Made in Cali
fornia.
SAN FRANCISCO, April IL. The first
experiment ever made in the telegraph
ing Of pictures for a long distance was
made by The Call, when an outline
picture of she entry of the queen Of the
fiesta at Los Angeles was wired from
the latter place to this city.
The experiment was successful.
Charles Willoughby Of this city is the
inventor of this scheme. The inventor
believes his idea to be most valuable in
newspaper work, or in the police or
secret service. If the success of the
process is demonstrated he will estab-
lish agencies in this city, Chicago, New
York and Washington. A good picture
can be sent at the cost of and in about
the space Of $50 words, and if not too
deliberately drawn will take no longer
than half an hour to send and repro
duce a diagram. The picture is drawn
originally upon paper ruled off
into small squares each about one
tenth of an inch in diameter.
Each vertical line is numbered along
the upper margin, and each horizontal
line is lettered down the slate. Every
square is therefore identified with a
number and letter and its location is
where the two lines designated cross
each other. With the original drawing
before him the operator describes the
course of the lines from point to point
and the message contains only as many
signs as combinations and directions in
the lines forming the picture.

HEARING A SUITS.

Cases of Considerable Interest in the
Northwest Before the Supreme Court.
WASHINGTON, April 1S.-The United
States supreme court is engaged in
hearing the arguments in three cases to
which various settlers in Iowa on the
Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul and
Sioux City and St. Paul companies
lines are parties. The cases involve the
ownership Of about %, 900 acres of land
along the lines of these roads, which
the Sioux City company claims was
granted to it by the government Of the
United States in 1864. It is claimed Oh
the part Of tue settlers that the rail
road company failed to earn the land
by a failure to build part Of it's line
within the time specified in the act.
The lands have all been settled and i'm
proved and are considered valuable.

Believed England Will Try Tha Method
with Nicaragua.
WASHINGTON, April 17.-Officials here
profess to have no information as yet as
to the instructions sent to British wal
vessels for the enforcement of the ulti.
matum against Nicaragua. Those in
position to understand the status OF
affairs, however. express the belief thai
the British intructions are OH the fol.
lowing lines:
F~irst-There shall be no exercise of
force whit b will affect the OF
the interests of the United States OF
her citizens, or of other foreign coun-
tries.
Second-The exercise of force shall
be confined to the execution of a ''pas-
sive blockade" Of Nicaragua ports, &C.
cording to the established rules for that
Vancouver.
The ''passive blockade" is designed
to cripple the international commerce
OF Nicaragua, and yet to leave all the
foreign commerce to proceed as usual.
1t does not contemplate any overt act,
or any seizure or detention Of property.
But the warships bringing to a stand
still the local or coastwise trade, and
keeping it thus paralyzed until a salts
factory response is given.

RIGHTS OF ASYLUM
Secretary Gresham Lays Down
Rules for Guidance Of Mer-
chant Captains.
MUST GIVE UP FuGITIvEs
If Proper Warrants for Arrest
Are Presented While
in Port.

WASHINGTON, April 18.-Secretary
Gresham has laid down some doctrine
touching the rights of merchant steam
ers in foreign ports to afford asylum tc
refugees that may be of great import
ance to commanders of vessels. This
was called out by a letter addressed tt
the state department. in December, 1894,
by G. P. Huntington, president of the
Pacific Mail Steamship company, asking
for an exact definition of the powers Of
the captains of merchant steamers in
this respect. The secretary responded
that the so-called doctrine of right OF
asylum having no application to mer-
chant vessels in port, it follows that a
shipmaster can found no exercise OF
discretion on the character of the Of
Tense charged against the refugee.
While no general rule can be laid down
as a comprehensive principle, a mer'
chant vessel in a foreign port is
Within the Local Jurisdiction
of the country with respect to the Of
fences OF offenders against the laws
thereof, and an orderly demand for the
oI14OASOL VI a pCAoOA ~SCNoOu VI SAAAAS
by due process of law, with exhibition
of a warrant Of arrest in the hands of
the regularly accredited officers of the
law, may not be disregarded or resisted
by the master of the ship. Arbitrary
attempts to capture a passenger by
force may call for a disavowal, when
the resort to violence endangers the
lives of the innocent and the property
of a friendly nation.
A Question of Discretion.
Whether, if force be threatened, the
master Of a vessel is justified in putting
in jeopardy by his resistance the inter-
ests confded to his care, must be
largely a question for his discretion.
That the passengers may have come
Oh board at the port where the demand
is made, O. at another port of the same
country, is immaterial to the right of
jurisdiction.
The secretary concluded with an ad-
monition to American merchant cap
tains to permit the orderly operation of
the law in foreign ports on their ships,
and thus avoid application for asylum
Of refuge and the occasions for the ex-
hibition of arbitrary force against their
ships.

Its Extent Among American Journalists
Wonderful, Says an English Paper.
LONDON, April 19.-The St. James
Gazette, commenting upon the latest
developments in the dispute between
Great Britain and Nicaragua, says:
There is wonderful ignorance of
diplomacy upon the part Of the Ameri-
can journalists. Why should we want
to lombard Greytown? If Nicaragua
has been so foolish as to refuse to pay
the indemnity which, with the knowl.
edge of the United States, we
demanded, we shall take such
steps as the American government was
perfectly aware Of at the time of ask
ing. The Monroe doctrine has been a
doctrine for ~ years and has not been
acted upon yet. When Great Britain has
serious differences to settle with South
American republics, it will not be pre-.
vented from doing so by anything but
settled international law"

TO DIZZY HEIGHTS
Gil Spectators at PittSburg
Are Afraid to Trade at
Present Prices.
Mr.. KIRK PROGNOST|CATES
The Present Boom Will Lift the
Country Out of the Finan-
cial Dumps.

P1TTsBURG, April lS.-Oil has now
reached that dizzy height where specu-
lators are afraid to deal in it, and as a
result, there was not a sale Oh the Pitts
burg exchange during the first half
hour, while the sales on the Oil City
exchange during the same period ag'
gregated only 1000 barrels. The Stand
ard again put up it's price 70 cents, to
g. 80, and May option was offered here
at the opening for $40. Cash oil was
offered at 81. Sc. There were no buyers
and the price gradually dropped to
So 80, then to 81. 81, and at 1920 a. IN.
$2.6 Is was bid. While many brokers
are predicting So oil this week, few OF
them have suftient faith i'll their own
prophecy to invest.
Will Help Business.
David Kirk, one of the best posted
men in the oil business, in discussing
the present boom in oil said:
Petroleum will be the means of
bringing the country out Of the period
CT depression that has prevailed for the
past two years. That was the case in
1873 when u finances We're at a low
ebb. Oil made the first advance and
as it went up in price the business Of
the country improved. The same was
true in 1854.
The Most Important Effect
OF the increased price on the finances
Of the country will be the increase i'll
the amount Of gold brought into the
country III payment for the petroleum
we export. Oil is paid for in yellow
gold and is one OF our most important
exports. We ship something like co.
coo, 600 barrel annually, and with the
price hanging about 80 cents, the ag-
gregate receipts from this source only
amount to about $40, 00O, 600. Now
with oil at the present price we would
receive something like $45, 000, 900 for
Il exports. This would be a clear gain
OF $50, 900, 900 a year, which would go
towards otfsetting the heavy exports of
gold during the past two years.
But that is not the only evidence
we have. There are other influences
at work. There are internal improve
ments that are already here and will
continue to grow all the year. Our
manufacturers are already feeling the
boom. I think the oil interests will
use considerably more than twice as
much iron OF all kinds this year as they
Gid last. This will give employment
to hosts Of men who will become good
buyers and SO create a better market for
all kinds Of merchandise"

N. LANCEVIN TALKS
No EncycliCal Received From
the Pope on the Manitoba
School Question.
THE POLICY CoNCILlAToRY.
Catholic Supporters of the
Public Schools Not to Be
Excommunicated.

WINNIPEG, April lS.-His Grace
Archbishop Langevin has granted an
interview to the Associated Press cor
respondent with reference to the report
in circulation here that his present ut
terances on the school question were
inspired by the receipt Of an encyclical
from Rome. His grace denied that any
encyclical had been received or was ex-
pected from the pope, but admitted
that he had received a letter from the
cardinal vicar, Ledoschowski, saying
that he was pleased with the attitude
OF the episcopacy Of Canada in the
matter. This epistle, however, was a
Mere Matter of Courtesy
and could not be considered an edict
from Rome. The cardinal, general in
his letter added a word against goddess
schools, that is, schools from which re-
ligious teachings had been eliminated
altogether.
"Supposing that a Catholic should
support the public school system of the
province, your grace, what would be
the attitude of the church toward him
OF his family?"
HE would not be considered a good
Catholic. He would not deserve the
name of a good Catholic and would not
be communicated, as it is not heresy.
A broad spirit Of liberation is 10 be fos-
tered rather than that which favors OF
narrowness and is likely to
Provoke Ill Feeling.
No, we wish to have our schools, GER
tainly, but we unite with the English
clergy and others in denouncing the in
PRODUCTION Of purely secular schools.
No Catholic worthy Of the name will
support a movement for such an end.'
"Then your grace's policy" said the
correspondent, sis practically the same
as chat %enunciated by Mgr. Satolli?"
Practically the same, conciliatory
and firm, but not aggressive was his
grace's reply.

How 1t May Affect the Financial Prob
lens of the World.
ST. PAUL, April ia Washington
/ special to The Dispatch says: Some of
the radical and no-compromise free
silver coinage men are now making a
startling claim. During the last week
a story has become current that the
British under secretary Of state to India
George N. Curzon, the future Lord
Scarsdale, is a bimetalist, and that he is
the probable successor Of Balfour or
Chamberlain in the house of commons.
Curzon is coming here to wed Miss
Mary Letter next week, and it is said
that the union may have
A Political Significance
which will have considerable bearing
On a possible International monetary
conference and England's attitude in
regard to the matter. Unlike the ma
jority of the titled aristocracy who seek
3 matrimonial alliance in America,
Mr.. George Curzon is a young
man of genius and talent. eeHe
is a newspaper man of rare
ability, the close friend of Lord Sails
bury and Mr.. Balfour, and is closely
identified with the Conservative and
Liberal Unionist alliance. It is we'll
known that this element is in favor of
the conference, in fact it is said that a
rupture in the alliance between Con-
servatives and Unionists may result
from Mr.. Balfour's late u%tterances in
which he advocated some agreement
toward IN International monetary
proposition, and England's position
with reference to it.
Too Many for the Tories.
George N. Curzon, during his stay in
India, wrote a series of letters that at
tracted much attention. These letters
were published in the London Times
and the Rosebery ''set," to which the
Prince OF Wales and the ultra elite in
social and political affairs belong, I'M
dertook to call Mr.. Curzon down, but
the young nan proved too many for
the tories, and has established a reputa-
ton for leadership that promises well
in the future.
MI. Curzon has visited the United
States before, and it is said that he has
made a very careful study Of the finan-
clal condition and independent relations
which exist between his government
and that of the United States. He
may not be a free silver man, as is
claimed by the radical element here,
but he is in advance Of his day in Eng
land, and foresees the inevitable by
predicting that International bimetal-
lism is the II and. only method to
maintain peace and prosperity between
the great powers. His marriage in n
Of the wealthiest American families
will add to the friendly feelings already
existing between the element he repre-
sents in English politics and the ele-
ment which favors international agree
ment in the United States.
