expressed. that it indicates the disap-
proval of the London authorities in the
inability of the governor general to
carry out the policy laid down by Min
fster Chamberlain. The position of
governor general is one of such dig
nifty that 1t is not usual to summon
him to London merely for consulta-
s.fion, although this happened when the
Venezuelan question reached a crit
icai stage in, 1S41. Among those in a
position to be best informed the belief
is quite positive that Sir Charles has
been recalled, and that the action of
the Guiana council is the direct cause
or 1t. The ssovernor general is now on
his way from Demerara to London.
The British ultimatum has not yet
reached Caracas. The understanding
here is that it was forwarded from
London to Berlin and thence by steam
er from Hamburg to La Guayra. The
Trip would take two or three weeks,
so that its receipt in Venezuela is an
ticipated within the next few days.

county has all along been foremost
in urging the Anderson bill for the tax
alton of railway lands, and it's papers
have been foremost in urging the pas
sage Of a constitutional amendment
allowing taxation, and in starting an
agitation for the amendment all over
the state. Today there was held here
a mass meeting of citizens, regardless
OF party, for the purpose of concerting
means to properly place before the
people the most convincing arguments
in favor of the ratification of the bill
to tax unused railroad lands at the
polls at the next election. The call for
the meeting was signed by the chair

Durrant's Fate VIII BE Known
Before Next Sunday.
SAN FRANCISCO, Oct 26.-The trial
of Theodore Durrant is nearing it's close
and the case will probably go to the
jury next Thursday or Friday. At
torney Dickinson, for the defense, has
said he will conclude on Tuesday morn
ing, to which day the case has been
continued, and Attorney Deuprey, also
for the defense, will probably finish
for Durrant on Tuesday afternoon.
District Attorney Barnes expects to
begin his argument on Wednesday
morning and to complete his address
the same day. Judge Murphy's
charge will be long and exhaustive,
and its delivery may occupy a day.
The exhibits are numerous, and in the
case of some will require much study
on the part of the jury. This is par
ucularly true of the comparison of
the notes of Durrant and those of
Student Glaser, with whom Durrant
qu1zzed. 1t is understood that the dis
tr1ct attorney will parallel the two
sets of notes and argue that Dur
rants could not be more like Glaser's
without having been copied verbatim.
The district attorney will it is said also
attack the roll call, and will call atten-

John Bulls Reply 80 Mr.. OIney
Will mbOdy u Refusal to Rec
Ognize the Nj. ID.

CHICAGO, Oct Pa special to
the Daily News from Washington
says: The United States will not
consider the suggestion of Lord
Salisbury for an alliance for the
building of the Nicaraguan canal
and the direction Of South and Cen
trail American affairs. 1t is under
stood that the suggestion did not
come in a way to require a formal
reply. The proposition was this:
Thar Great Britain would be salts
fed if this country would permit
her, without interference on our
part, to take possession by force of
all the territory she claims from
Venezuela, and would agree to the
joint construction and ownership Of
the Nicaraguan canal. She would
then pledge herself not to seek the
acquisition of any more territory on
this continent, and would recognize
and join us in enforcing the Mon
roe doctrine. 1t was represented
that the governments of South and
Central America were irresponsible
ton to foreigners and foreign inter-
cts, and that Great Britain and the
United States should join in COM
pelllng proper respect to the citizens
or subjects, and the interests of the
United States and Great Britain, one
country or both to maintain a naval
force in the vicinity-to protect the
lGtPrpStS of o.
try.
1t was intimated that unless such
an arrangement could be made
Great Britain would not recognize
the Monroe doctrine as having any
force, and that she would be COM
PEELED to take such steps as she
deemed necessary to protect British
interests on this continent. This sug-
gestion is treated as having no ref
erence to the letter of Secretary
Olney on the subject of the Monroe
doctrine, and is entirely formal. The
tone of the delayed reply to Mr..
Olney's letter will, however, be in
huenced by the manner in which this
informal suggestion is received. Be
ing satisfied the United States will
no0 consider a proposition for an al
lance, probably no answer will be
formally made, and the subject will
be ignored as if never broached. The
reply to Mr.. Olney is expected to be
simply the alternative proposition
that Great Britain cannot recognize
the Monroe doctrine and will pro-
tect her interests in her own way.

Capt Gen. de Campos has decided to

reorganization of the Wisconsin
Central lines, in the hope of uI.i-

the owner of Mesaba range prop

which runs through the range, and
which he is about to extend to West

Two Lives Lost by an Explosion
On a Tug HOnf

CHICAGO, Oct. 26.-The tugboat Nor
ford, of the Dunham company, while
towing the steamer Ionia blew up her
boiler, shortly before 4, O'clock this
morning, in the river near Seventeenth
street. Two men were killed and one
other seriously injured. The dead are:
John Erickson, fireman of the T. II.
Morford; John Ferguson, captain of
the tug o. B. Green. The injured are:
Charles Dix, La Porte, Ind, engineer
on Morford, body burned, removed to
county hospital, will die; John CuIIi-
nan, captain of Morford, face and up
per part of body burned, will recover;
Daniel McRae, feet burned and ankle
sprained. Immediately after the ex-
plosion the tug sank to the bottom of
the river. AT the time Of the expIo-
sion, Capt. Cullinan was in the pilot
house. He was blown some distance
away, and was taken out of the water
in an unconscious condition. The pilot
house of the tug o. B. Green, which
lay near the Morford, was smashed by
the explosion, and Capt. Ferguson,
who was asleep inside, was instantly
killed.

DIVISION OF TRAFFIC.

Freight Men to Confer on the Sub
ject This Week.
Beginning tomorrow in Chicago the
freight men will confer on the subject
of freight matters in general and the
division of business in particular. The
Western trunk line committee is prac-
tically reorganized under the same gen.
eral plan as before, and the purpose is
to bring about an agreeable division
of traffic between Chicago and the
Missouri river as well as between in
terror points between Chicago and
Iowa. Although there has been no
indiscriminate cutting of freight rates
there has been some dissatisfaction
among the various lines, and the pool
arrangement will have a tendency to
steady the tariff rates, as the lines
have all cancelled contracts naming
rates below the tariff.
1t will probably require the greater
part of the week to agree on the va
rious percentages of the traffic for the
different roads.
P. G. Storer, general freight agent
of the Chicago Great Western, left
last night for st. Louis to attend the
meeting of the Western Freight asso-
citation convened for the purpose of
reaching an agreement for the division
of the freight business.
