Having clandestinely landed from a
vessel at Alexandretta, he set out for the
interior, and afterwards was robbed by a
large band of men. Being on horseback
he escaped to the mountains. Later his
horse was stolen, whereupon he went to
Antioch, lodged a complaint against his
assailants, and represented himsef as an
Englishamn. Upon enquiry in the pres
ence of the British vice-conSul, the facts
of his case were elected and his arrest
and removal to Aleppo followed. b

September 12, Guenjian was convicted by
a Turkish court, no notice having been
given to the consular agent, and W ithout

NOW THE COMMITTEES.
Speaker Reed Will Announce Them Today
or Tomorrow. t4

Washington, DecemberE 19.-Speaker
Reed will announce the House commit
tees tomorrow..or Saturday at the slatest.
The work is practically completed, al
though changes may be made until the
very moment of the announcement.
Speaker Reed explained today that he
had changed three changes tin the 51st
Congress. while the list was being read
from the clerks desk, and that the haste
with which the committees were made
up at this time, mighs result similarly.
The Speaker preserves his reticence in
regard to discussing the personnel of the
House committees.
The latest congressional gossip tonight
asserts that Mr. Henderson OF 10 wa, will
not be chairman of the appropriation
committee, of which he is the senior
Republican member. II this report be
true, and it is apparently we'll founded,
there is little doubt that the position will

held the Craftsmanship in the 51st Con-
gress.
Il is not unlikely that Speaker Reed,
in order to compensate Mr.. Henderson
will place him on the committete on
rules and hestow the craftsmanship of a
good committee upon him besides.
Previous statements indicating that Mr..
Ding,ey of Maine, will be the next chair
man of the committee on ways ano
means, and that Mr.. Payne of New York.
will be placed second on that committee
are repeated with so much emphasis as
to indicate theil truth.

Venezuela.

London, December 19.-The Manchester
Guardian claims to have knowledge that
the foreign office will placidly proceed
without regard to President Cleveland's
message, and the demand for indemnity
for the arrest Of members of the British
colonial police will be ste eadily pressed
upon Venezuela and, if necessary, en-
forced by the admiral commanding the
West India station.
The territory extending to the Schom-
berg line, the Guardian says, will also be
held against Venezuela or any other
power, while the matter of possessions OF
the territory beyond that line will be SUBJ

ESPECIAL TO THE TREss.1
Bridgton, December 19-Prof. L. G.
Bateman, the Maine Populist leader, op-
ened the Populist stats campaign this ev-
ening by speech delivered to the Bridg-
ton Populists.
He took most disoouraging view of
thu situation. He began by a hurried
sketch of the French revolution of which
he said: GA brief hundred years ago and
the world saw with amazement a mad
dened peasantry drag royalty from It's
throne, and religion from it's ancient sane
tuaries. By the lurid glare of burning
palaces they saw mob of starving men
and women sweep a Kingdom from the
earth and a licentious nobility 90 down
before a storm taht no human hand
coud stay. The crisom blaze of reyolu-
tion with a fearful distructiveness the
demon in the human heart as 1t spranp
to its feast Of blood. The burning flash
of avenging steel glinted aoog the ruins
of defying state, and kings princes and
noblemen alike fell beneath the bloody
axe OF the guilotine."
Mr.. Bateman spoke of Egypt, Persia,
Greece and Rpme, and then turning to
the United States, claimed that the same
conditions exist here, and asoribed
that he insists is the present state of this
country alike to Republicans and Demo-
orats. He said the Democrats said j:
"Give US a chance" We gave them a
chance. Now we are in the same fix as
the man who sent his two boys to a
country friend with this note: "We have
the small pox in our family and 1 send
you my two boys for safety In two
weeks the boys came back with this note
to their father: herewith return your
two boys Please send down the family
pox."
He said that If intrusted with power
the Popuilst party will remonetize silver
give supplementary paper currency,
secure government ownership of railroads
and forward what he was pleased to term
"reformS" in other respeofs.

several speakers referred to President
Cleveland's message.
Major Bennett replying to the toast
"Army and Navy Volunteers,' raised
loud applause by declaring that the
United States might crow all they pleased
about the Monroe doctrine, but while
Great Britain and Canada had men they
would never give in.
Captain Orr said they could drink the
toast the more heartily because of the
action of a supposed peaceful country
which had in a most insulting manner
threatened the relations of the British
empire. Such conduct on the part of the
nited States was most reprehensible
act. He was proud of the answer Lord
Salisbury had given to Secretary Olney.
