AN OLD ENGLISH MAP
Document Which Is Likely to
Figure in the Venezuelan
Claims.
TEN THOUSAND SQUARE MILES
Under Dispute Was Once For
mally Acknowledged to Be
VenezueIa'S.

WASHINGTON, May 16.-According to
advices received here, British docu-
ments have been found at Hawaii, as to
the pending British Venezuela bound
ary question, in which the United
States has urged arbitration as means
of settlement. Assistant Surveyor
General Lyons of Hawaii has examined
them and has made a map, accom-
panied by statement, which it is said
supports the contention of Venezuela
even on the evidence Of the British.
Senior Andrade, the Venezuelan minis
ter here, says it is the first time that
the documents sent out by the British
foreign Office have been made available
in the controversy.
Furnished Long Ago.
The records now brought to public at
tention by Mr.. Lyons were furnished
to Hawaii by the British foreign Office
at a time when Hawaii was a monarchy
and largely under British control.
They are now on file at the surveyors
Office at Honolulu, where Mr.. Lyons.
as assistant surveyor general, has had
access to them. He was led to the in
vestigation by the publication last
month of an official British map Of the
Guiana territory. On comparing this
with the map furnished by the foreign
office, 20 years ago. he found that the
boundary line had been entirely
changed. The first map gave the lint
as Venezuela claims it should be. The
last map shifts the line far westward,
and includes as British territory about
10, 600 square miles, which the first
map showed to be
Clearly Venezuelan Territory.
This intervening 10000 square miles
is the subject Of contention. The old
map was made by the Royal Geograph-
icd society of England, and was there.
after given official approval and sent
cut by the foreign Office. 1t is there
fore considered of scientific as well as
official value. Mr.. Lyons in the course
Of his statement, which is signed, says:
"The area thus taken in, as shown on
these maps themselves, is 10000 square
miles or more, larger than the area OF
either Massachusetts, or Vermont
What the Venezuelans claim we have
not the means of knowing, but 1t Is
very natural that they should claim at
least that British Guiana should adj
here to its own original map"

What is regarded as direct blow at

Northern during tho afternoon when
Division Superintendent ]. B. Rice,
acting under written instructions from
General Superintendent McKenna, dis
charged the three most prominent local
A. r. U. men. all train dispetchers en-
ployed by the company. The news
created sensation as no cause was as
signed, and because it is believed by
many, and SO asserted by the dis
charged men, that it Is ON account Of
their afaliation with the A R u. The
three men are w. r. Clark, president
Of the union; A. e. Buser, secretary,
and Samuel WEIGH. delegate to the
last national convention in Chicago.
The men have been very active in in
creasing the membership of the local
union. Clark is one of the oldest rail-
road men here and the other two have
been in st. Cloud for some time.
Trouble Not UnliksIy.
Thsre can be no doubt that the COM
pany's action is significant, and it 10
reported that other discharges Of A r.
q. men are~to follow. The A. r. y.
viii without question demand the rein
statement of the men or good and
sufficient reason for their discharge,
which, it is claimed, cannot be given,
as the men have always borne the rep
utation of being most excellent en-
ployes.
The only view to be taken OF the
case at this time is that the men were
discharged because they were agitators,
and, if this proves to be the case, the
next few days will witness trouble OF
serious nature between the Great
Northern and the American Railway
union.
