 Steps are being taken to complete arrangements for the formation of the proposed new bicycle club in this city. Many persons who are interested in cycling received yesterday the following self-eXplanatory circular;

TO BOOM HIS REAL ESTATE.
The Trick With Which Colorado
senator is Charged.

DENVER, Col, March Estate Senator
John b. Gordon has been arrested on the
charge of conspiring to defraud the United
States government and held in $1,000 for a
hearing. 1t is asserted by those prose-
cutting the case that c. B. Simmons, who
was arrested in Pueblo last week on the
charge of impersonating a United States
officer, was employed by Gordon.
Simmons, alias Sawyer, went to Pueblo
to secure evidence from people against the
present federal building site there so as to
have new site selected on the Mesa. He
has been unfortunate in real estate specu-
lation, and the International Trust Com
pany is said to have most of his land tied
up. The presumption is that if the gov
eminent building was located on the Mesa
it would give the price of land a boom and
help the senator out of his difficulties.
1t is stated that the senator, when a resi-
dent of Nebraska City, attempted a similar
scheme successfully five years ago in
Cheyenne, Wyo.

THE VENEZUELA QUESTION.
The United States May lie Called Upon
TO ET,teYfcrc,

The State Department is said to be very
uneasy about the situation in Venezuela,
and greatly embarrassed to determine upon
a policy. While there is belief that the
Monroe doctrine should he insisted upon,
there is a great deal of uncertainty to
how and when it will be applied. England
has heen extending her claims in The dis
puted territory further and further into the
domain of Venezuela, and it may be that
she will go to extreme which will de-
mand Interference on the part of the
United States. 1t is suggested. however.
that a stronger motive for interference
may be developed through the diplomacy
OF the Venezuelan government. 1t is init
mated that Venezuela may make conces-
sicn to Americans either of timber or min
erals both sides the disputed boundary
line, including part or all of the disputed
territory, to establish an American
interest, which this country would be COM
PEELED to take into consideration. at least
far to insist upon q determination of
the boundary dispute according to its
merits.

A Spanish Warship Fires at an
American Vessel.
1 CHASE FOR TWENTY-FIVE MILES
The Affair to Be Reported to the
State Department.
NO ADVICES YET RECEIVED

NEW YORK, March 1.-THE American
mail steamship Alliance, while proceeding
from Colon to New York on the morning Of
the Sth instant, sighted barkentine-rigged
steamer under the land off Cape Maysi,
the eastern edge Of Cuba, which headed
directly toward her. At O'Clock, when
about two and one-half miles distant, she
hoisted the Spanish flag which was saluted
by hoisting the American ensign and dip
ping it, which act of courtesy was answer
ed by the Spanard.
At 7:15 she fired blank cartridge to lee
ward, which was soon followed by another.
The American ensign was again hosted
and dipped, but the course and speed of
the ship were not changed as no hostile
demonstration was anticipated, as the Al
lianca was more than six miles off the land
at the time.
The Spaniard Fired Shot.
The Spanish man-of-war was not salts
fed, however, with even the double salute
to her flag, but proceeded to chase the
American at her full speed, judging from
the smoke that came from her funnel, and
seeing that the Allianca was drawing away
she waved to to bring her guns to bear
and fired solid shot, which struck the
water less than eighth of a mile away
from the ship and directly in line. This
was followed by two more solid shots,
which, fortunately. did not reach their
mark, though they struck the water in
plain sight of the ship.
At each shot, however, the Spaniard
waved to get the range of the American
ship before firing on her, plainly showing
the intention to hit her if she could. Capt
Crossman of the Aliianca knowing he was
more than two leagues from land and on
the high seas. did not consider it his duty
to detain his ship to find out The reason for

A Chase for Twenty-Five Miles.
The chase was kept up for more than
twenty-five miles, however, before 1t was
abandoned. If the Spaniard had had more
speed or her gUnners been better marks

ended so fortunately for the American
This outrage has been reported to the
Secretary of State by Capt. Crossman of
the Alliance, and no doubt a prompt de-
mand will be made on the Spanish govern
ment for an explanation for the insult and
a reason required for the attempt made to
stop an American mail steamer on the high
seas in time of peace.
Capt. Crossman has written to Secretary
Gresham at Washington a full statement
OF The Spanish warship's conduct.

OPPOSITION TO MIR. REED.
The Effort to Get Western Man to
Run for the Speaiershfp.

Run for the Speaiership.
The ever-ready cry of western man is be-
ing invoked in certain quarters in connec-
ton with the organization of the next
House. While it is not probable that any
thing Of consequence will come of it, there
is an effort being made by certain of he
old republican members reelected to the
who fear that their prospects are not bright
for committee assignments which they de-
sire to get western man among the con-
testants for the speakership against Mr.
Reed. They have selected Mr.. Hopkins, but
it appears that he is not willing to enter
the contest, but they may find some other
man who will go through the candidacy
merely for the precedence it would give
him. This movement might have some
snail chance of success If it were not for
the large number of new members elected
to the next Congress. Among the old men,
bers there have been some rivalries during
the past three or four years which have
weakened Mr.. Reeds influence. Moreover,
the fact of his being prominently men,
toned as presidential candidate leads the
friends of other candidates to discourage
the disposition to make a hero of the ''eX-
c2ar." Among the new members, however,
Mr.. Reed Is greatly admired. He is known
to them through his reputation, and none
of them have been put in contact with him
in a manner to excite jealousies or emula-
tions All of these new members take ii for
granted Mr.. Reed will be elected Speaker.
This condition of affairs is likely to dis
courage all idea of another candidate en-
tering the field

CUSTOMS DECISIONS,
Two Important Cases to he Decided
in n Few Days.

in n Few Days.
Two important cases now before the
Treasury Department are likely to be de-
cided within the next day or two The
first is that of the New York sugar inn
porters, who applied to the department for
permission to have the duty on their sugar
importations assessed according to the po-
lariscope tests at the port of delivery. 1t
has been represented that at several points
of shipment it is impossible to make a
proper test, and in consequence the con-
signees are often compelled to pay duty
on a higher test than that found by the
government custom house test. If, again,
the original test is found to be lower than
the government test the importers are sub
ject TO q heavy penalty for differentiation
They ask, therefore, that invoices may
be authorized giving specified price per
pound according to a sliding scale based
upon the government test.
Another question is that raised in New
York recently as TO whether diamond cut
ting was a new industry" in this country
within the meaning of the new tariff act.
Several diamond cutters arrived in New
York few weeks ago, and their right to
land was questioned on the ground that
they We're contract laborers, and did not
come within the meaning of the tariff act
admitting workmen who were to engage in
a new industry. This question will likely
be decided by the Secretary during Inc
present week. Its importance, however,
will rest upon the decision of the United
States court of appeals for New York in
the case recently appealed to 1t by the
New York collector of customs. The New
York board of appraisers had decided that
under the new tariff act diamonds could be
imported free of duty, but from this de-
cision the collector appealed, and a de-
cision is soon looked for.

THE DELAWARE SENATORSHIP,
