BUNoE's SQUADRON.
II is to BE Joined by BattIeships and
Its Departure Delayed.

Washington, Dec. 22.-Secretary Her
bert had a conference to-day with Rear
Admiral Bunce, commanding the North
Atlantic squadron. in regard to the sail
ing of that fleet for the West Indies and
nearby South American waters. The ad-
miral was at the department Thursday
to receive verbal instructions preparatory
to the sailing of his ships, but owing
to the absence of the secretary in New
York, failed to get them. He was notified,
however TO meet the latter to-day for
a conference.
In the meantime a suspicion would like
ly attach at this juncture to the sailing
of the squadron for the vicinity of the
Venezuelan coast. Secretary Herbert, Of
course, consulted with the President as
to the best line of action to be adopted.
The interview between the secretary ana
the admiral to-day lasted for quite a
while, the latter having come on from
Fort Monroe, his squadron being anchor
ed in Hampton roads. The admiral was
originally given sailing orders for Satur>
day last but they were subsequently,
amended, and 1t is learned tonight that
the time of the departure Is indefinite
The present composition of the fleet will
be augmented by the addition OF the
Maine and possibly the Texas, both bat
tleships.
AS the Texas will have TO undergo an
other trip trip, and the Maine is not yet
fully provisioned, 1t can be seen that the
sailing of the squadron viii not be for
some time.

STAND by THE PRESIDENT.
Prof. Won HOItz's Views Not Those of
the University of Chicago.

Chicago, Dec. 22.-Prof. Won Holtz of
the University of Chicago is being round
ly scored by the faculty for his recent ex-
pressions against President Cleveland and
his attitude on the Venezuelan question
The officers of the university fear Prof.
Holtz's opinion will be interpreted as an
expression of the sentiment of the uni
versity, which, in fact, is directly opposed
to that of the German student.
President Harper, Prof. Judson and Sec
retary Goodspeed have given out signed
statements, the following being Press
dent Harper's: 1.-The message and policy
of President Cleveland on the Venezuelan
question meet my earnest approval.
Whether the Monroe doctrine is or is not
part of the system of international law
is immaterial. 1t is a part of the settled
foreign policy of the United States.
Whether the Presidents Interpretation Of
the doctrine in the present case can be
found in the phraseOlogy of the message
of 1898 is mere pettifogging. His inter
probation. is a logical deduction from the
spirit and purpose of that message. The
United States cannot permit the forcible
extension of European territory on this
continent. That must be resisted by ali
the means in our power"

EoHOMBURGK's LIFE STORY.
The Man Who Fixed the boundary
Once a Clerk I'm This CountrY.


Washington, Dec 22.-An interesting
fact in connection with the famous Schom-
burgk line. which has escaped observa-
ton, is that the man who provided the
British government with that boundary
came to this country from Germany when
he was p years old, and after working
for some time as a clerk in Boston and
Philadelphia, became a partner in a
Richmond, Va, tobacco mandatory in
1928. The factory was burned and Schom-
burgk drifted to the West Indies, where
after unsuccessful ventures, his botanical
work attracted the attention of the Lon
don Geographical Society, and secured
means to explore the unknown region of
the Orinoco. where he Travelled from 1893
to 1893. when he discovered the Victoria
Regia lily and numerous plants. This
work led the British government to com
mission him to suggest a boundary be-
tween Venezuela and Guiana and to make
further explorations. The line was drawn
and he was knighted by the queen for his
services. Schomburgk, until his death in
1865, continued in the British consular SER
vice, but devoted himself to geographic
cal studies, being a member of the princi-
pal American and European learned So
cietieS.
