WASHINGTON. Oct. 2.-Reports from
st. Paul, Mimi, in which state lives
Donald Grant. the head of the American
Venezuelan syndicate, that the syndicate
will meet in New York tom orrow, have
awakened interest in Washington, owing
to its bearing on the negotiations be-
tween the United States and Great Brit
ain concerning Venezuela. The St. Paul
advices announced that Secretary Olney
had sent three letters to Ambassador
Bayard, instructnk him to notify Great
Britain that unless the Venezuelan ques-
ton was submitted to arbitration within
ninety days the United States would en-
force tho Monroe doctrine. That such let.
tcrs nave boon sent cannot be confirmed
at tho state department. Secretary Olney
Will not admit that he has sent one or
three letters on the subject, nor will he
give any intmation as to the status OF the
question. Senior Andrade, the Venezuelan
minister, said today that he was unin-
formed AS to any such letters.

BILE to learn from unofficial sources. 1t
is believed however, that the reference
to Great Britain's answering in ninety
days means that the executive branches
in Washington desire information before
congress reassembles, about sixty days
hence. The last congress adopted the
Livingston resolution, requesting Great
Britain to arpitrate. and it would be nat
ural that the executive branch should
report to congress when it resssembles
what answer Great Britain mad given. 1t
is believed the state department, with
due diplomatic courtesy, has suggested
to Great Britain that the meeting OF con-
gress in Decem Der made 1t desirable that
an answer be made within the interven-
ing period. While this view is enter

MILWAUKEE, Oct. Mrs. Gustav
Pabst, formerly Margaret Mather, created
a sensation near Twenty-ninth and Cedar
streets tonight by hersewhipping her
husband. son OF the wealthy brewer.
What was the cause of the trou BILE no
one seems to know, but numerous resi-
dents of the vicinity who were eye wit
nesses OF the alteration, which began in
buggy in which the couple were lid
ing, say that just about noon when Mr..
and Mrs. Pabst were about to turn into
Cedar street toward their home Mrs.
Pabst grabbed the whip flom the socket
and struck Mr.. Pabst full in the face.
Mr.. Pabst jumped out of the buggy and
started down the street. The woman
drove the horse to post, hitched it and
followed her husband. overtaking him a
times in the face. Young Pabst th en-
wrenched the whip from her hands ana
threw it away. But the one-sided battle
was by no means ended, sfor she then
clenched.her fist and planted blow from
the sshoulder square on his nose. Mr..
Pabst moved on at a rapid pace, the wo-
man following, DOtn entering their nome
together on Cedar street. The affair took
place in a fashionable part of the city
and was witnessed by large number of
people.
Gustav Pabst and Margaret Mather were
married in November. 1892, but the wed.
ding was kept secret for several months
creating great sensation when it finally
became known. The bride soon left the
stage and has since lived quietly with
her husband in this city.
FRIENDS of the couple give ND explana-
ton of the trouble and Mr.. Pabst could
not be found tonight.
The horse was allowed to stand where
1t was pitched until o clock IN the after
noon, when Mr.. Pabst, sr.'s coachman
came and took it away.
Mrs. Pabst was seen at her home this
evening after repeated attempts by re-
porters. She said it was all cruel, cruel
falsehood. Young Pabst has disappeared,
but his father and other friends were
among the newspaper offices tonight and
visiting correspondents trying to have
the story suppressed. One of them said
that the horsewhIpping was done in
''only fit of tenn per; that there was
nothing back of the quarrel and that Mr..
and Mrs. Pabst had always lived peace
ably together since their marriage.

That England considers the act OF
France in dispatching an expedition to
the Niger as an unfriendly one is evidenced
by the ministerial statement in the House
of Commons read by Sir Edward Gray,
the parliamentary secretary of the foreign
office, from manuscript in the hand writ
ing of the Earl of Kimberley. Lord
Kimberley succeeded Lord Rosebery as
secretary of the foreign department. He
was born Jan. 7, 1926, and his experience
in public life dates back to his twenty
sixth year when he was appointed under
secretary Of state for foreign affairs. He
remained in that office for four years and
since then has been minister to St. Peters
burg, Lord lieutenant of Ireland, Lord OF
the privy seal, twice secretary for The
colonies and secretary of state for India.
The territory invaded by France belongs
to the Royal Niger Company and is thus
under British protection.

The estimated reduction in the number
of cattle and sheep in this country as
compared with last year is 6 a per cont on
cattle and about Is per cent on sheep.
But the increase in the price OF meat is
from - to % per cent. Here's lack of
proportion that is suggestive, and which
possibly the beef barons could explain. 1t
certainly looks as if some one other than
the consumer was turning an unpleasant
fact to the majority of people, the fact of
scarcity of meat, to his own advantage.
In respect to another commodity scare
ity is reported There is shortage in
kerosene oil, enough to cause a boom
among prospectors. The Standard Oil
trust has advanced the price about ID cents
barrel but tho consumer finds himself
paying about two cents moro on the
gallon. 1t is not yet quito clear whether
tho scarcity of oil was part Of the trust
these commodities so long such suspicious
may well be entertained. An excuse is
afforded through this scarcity to raise the
price and at tho same time excite devel-
opment of wells that will lower the cost
of production. OF course if the control of
this household necessity didn't rest in the
hands of trust competition would ad-
just the price equitably. AS it is the
monopoly can keep the price up to the
limit where consumption would be re-
duced il it went higher and reap the bcne-
fits in the way of several more millions
of dollars 1t is doubtful If the consumer
will economize in his use of oil on account
of this rise of two cents in the price per
gallon SO that while he continues to pay
the fiddler the monopoly will continue to
| dance.
