NO EXTENSION ASKED.
John BWU Not Requested to Delay Opera
lions at CorintO.

LONDON, Enc, April 25.-The Foreign
Office up to tonight had not received a
request from the United States or Mica
ragua for extension of the time allowed
Nicaragua for consideration of the ulti-
matum of Great Britain as presented by
Admiral Stephenson, who is now at Co
rinto with three British warships.
Efforts were made this evening to inter
view ambassador Bayard in regard to the
statement that the United States had
cabled to him suggesting that a brief
respite be granted Nicaragua as a means
toward the adjustment of the payment of
the indemnity, and that it be paid in Lon
don instead of in Corinto Mr.. Bayard
could not be found but inquiries in other
directions tend to the belief that the report
is correct and the suggestions failed of re-
ceiving an affirmative reply.
COLON, COLOMBIA, April 25.-It is re-
ported here that the British squadron at
Corinto, Nicaragua, has closed that port.

APPRoTED IN PARIS.
France Has No Objection to the British

LONDON, ENG, April ga special to
the Daily News from Paris says the
British ultimatum to Nicaragua is strongly
approved in that city. France herself is
having trouble in South America, and will
probably be obliged to send an ultimatum
to Venezuela.
The dispatch adds: The newspaper La
Liberte says America will growl but will
go no further The Monroe doctrine does
not cover diplomatic misdeeds and inter
national bad breeding. Great Britain can
take every reasonable satisfaction, for
America is unable to fire single gun.
A dispatch from Paris to the Daily News
says the vessels comprising the extra
French squadron in Chinese waters have
been ordered home.

YESTERDAYS MEETING.

The Ocala Temperance Reform
club held a very interesting and
largely attended meeting yesterday
afternoon at Temperance hall.
After the opening exercises Miss
Nellie Stevens was called upon,
who gave an excellent reading on
the evil effects of alcohol. Only
those who were present can form
anything like a just estimate of the
valuable thoughts contained in that
reading.
Next on the program was Mr..
Willie T. Gary, who came forward
ana made a stirring speech which
dealt largely with our young men.
He said that those who might be
strong in the temperance cause, but
who were tainted and sorely
tempted, needed to be fred with
ambition to become great men
great temperance men-such as
Gladstone, r. E. Lee, and others.
He spoke of his associates, and Ct
his surprise, upon returning from
school, at the sad fact of so many
of them having acquired the drink
habit. He appealed TO the moth
ers to take a deeper interest in
their boys welfare. The speech
was brimfull of clear-cut, convincing
truths, and, coming from the
source it did, cannot fail to have
it's influence.
Several others gave encouraging
talks. The STAR was highly rec
commended as fit paper to be cir
culated. ]. A. Munden was re-
elected editor of the Temperance
column for another week. The
Glee club was not on hand to fur
.nish music, owing to inability of its
leader to be present, which was re-
GREETED exceedingly.

WAR MAY BE AvERTED.
Bolivia and Peru May Arbitrate Their
Dfapute.

Copyright, 1895. by the Associated Press)
LIMA, Peru. via Galveston, idly 10. 1885.
The extreme state of irritation and ex-
citement which existed here when II first
became known that Bolivia had made a
peremptory demand for immediate satisfac-
tion Of her claim shows some signs Of
abatement, as it is now believed that a
mode of peaceful settlement may be arrived
at. through the good offices of the papal
delegate. The acute crisis in the relations
between the two countries was precipitated
by the demand of the Bolivian minister to
Peru on behalf Of his government. for i'm
mediate satisfaction for the outrages COM
mitted on the frontier between the two
countries by the Cacerist forces during the
late civil war. The Bolivian government re-
piled that IL was disposed to entertain the
demand for satisfaction, and was inclined to
recognize the justice of the claim adganced:
but the government refused the demand OF
Bolivia to salute the flag, holding that the
events which had occurred did not warrant
excitement in the city on the nature of
Boivia's demands becoming known, and
lively demonstrations of warlike spirit were
indulged in. rhe papal delegate to Peru
has suggested that the point in dispute
should be submitted to arbitration. and the
Peruvian government has accepted the idea.
The Bolivian minister was not free 10 COM
NIT his government TO arbitrate without
consultation, and he has cabled TO Sucre
from his government on the proposal TO
arbitrate the question of salute of the
Bolivian flag on behalf Of the Peruvian
government.

trunk. It was known that Holmes had
three trunks at the hotel and the one taken
out the rear entrance was the largest of
them. Louis remembers no particular
things about the trunk. except that Ii was
not very heavy and he was somewhat sur
prised that il was not taken out the front
way as was the custom OF the hotel Since
Louis placed that trunk on the platform at
the station on that October day no trace of
Ii has been found and ii Is noted that since
that date no trace of the youngest Pietzel
child has been found.
Detective Geyer traced the two little
girls from this city to Chicago and thence
to Detroit. He recently sent word TO Cap
tain Splann that he had located the girls
in Detroit and later in Toronto. but all
track of the boy stopped at the Circle
House. Indianapolis. There Is some inter-
est by those who knew of Geyer's work
here to learn IL he was the person who To-
Gated the bodies of the murdered children.
While Mr. Geyer was here he remarked to
superintendent Powell:
1--WE are going TO hang that man Holmes,
for the web Is being spun around him.
1t looks as IL his declaration might come
true, for two of the children were certain
ly murdered, and perhaps .heir father.
another mysteriously disappeared from this
city, and Holmes was the man whose profit
1t would be TO get the entire family out OF
the way.

pleasant but difficult feat delegated to the
young gentlemen 10 perform. The girls
were hidden behind a screen. with the ex-
ception OF their shoeless and stockingiess
feet, which coyly protruded beneath the
curtain.
The trick was for the young men to de-

were the bodies of Alice and Nellie. the
two missing daughters Of Benjamin +.

Geyer of Philadelphia, made the discovery,
and all doubts as to their fate have been
set at rest. 1t is now matter almost be-

here last October deliberately murdered the
pair and thus rid himself of two trouble

their father in Philadelphia.
The inquiries begun by the police led to
the knowledge that Holmes and the chill

search was made.

to the detectives that something had dis

CHANCE FOR CAPITALISTS.
Mr. Jenerds Says Americans Have an
Opening i'm China.

NEW YORK, July 15--M. r. Jefferds, of
London. England, and T. III. Wang, OF
Shanghai, China, are registered at the
Westminster Hotel. Mr.. Jefferds, who is
well known. in railway circles. is interested
in large car works in America, England.
Germany and France, and represents capi-
tai to the extent of number of millions OF
dollars. His headquarters are in London.
Mr.. Wang is a member of the Chinese en-
bassy to England. AT present he is on
six months leave Of absence. which the
Emperor has decided to extend three
months to allow him to accompany Mr.. JEFF
ferds his trip through the Chinese en-
pre. Mr.. Jefferds said to reporter: my
business In American will undoubtedly re-
suit finally in the establishment of Amer
lean enterprises In China At present that
country is virtually in the hands OF Russia
and England. and investments there of cap
ital from other countries have little encour-
agement. On account OF the impartial stand
she took during the late war between China
and Japan. America has won the respect of
all China, which now looks upon the United
States as China's best friend. Our manu-
factories are situated in every country in
the world in which modern ideas or rail-
way equipment and transportation are in
vogue. but in no country in the world can
tory as In the United States. The work.
manship here Is the best in the world. the
ideas are modern and labor is competent
and plentiful. In railway materials an ar
ticle can be produced in America 171z per
cent. cheaper than in England. English
capital is at all times ready for the building
OF railways In China, but railways could
not be successfully operated there after the
English idea. We would rather have Amer
lean capital 10 invest I'm Chinese railroads
and build after the modern American ideas.
We have been in communication with the
highest officials Of China. and they are in
accord with our intentions. We shall in
vestigate Chinese needs fully. and 1t is safe
to say that 1t will not be long before Amer
lean capital and enterprise will be largely
represented there, and will open up a new
trade between America and China, which
neither Russia nor England will be able to
reach"
1t was Mr.. Jefferds's intention 10 have
left Thursday for Washington. where he
was to have met Peace Commissioners Fos-
ter, but the trip was postponed on account
of Mr.. Fosters absence from that city.
Asked IL the interview with Mr.. Foster
would in any way touch upon the loan
which China has asked of Russia. he an
swered that his business with Mr.. Foster
was private.
