On the face OF complete unofficial re-

WILL PROSECUTE CUBANs.
Proceedings Against Leaders of the
Bermuda Expedition.

NEW YORK, March 3.-The United
States government today abandoned all
proceedings against the alleged Cuban
filibusteriRg steamship Bermuda.
United States District Attorney Mac
Farlane secured a special order from
Washington this afternoon ordering
the vessel released from custody. The
dispatch also ordered the release Of all
the arms, money, ship stores and
other things seized by the United
States marshals and directed that they
be placed where they were originally
found. This does not indicate, how
ever, that the government has aban-
doned the proceedings against the
leaders of the alleged expedition, for
shortly before the Bermuda was for
mally released, United States Marshal
John, Mccarthy boarded and arrested
Charles G. Taylor, steward; Thomas
Nelson, engineer and James Howdan,
engineers assistant. They are held as
witnesses against the other prisoners.
AS soon as United States Ditrict At
torney MacFarlane received the order
from Washington he at once communi-
Gated with Emmett r. Olcott and L.
Rubens, counsel for the owners Of the
Bermuda. They produced before Mac
Farlane Capt. Thomas A. Thompson.
who is on record as the owner of the
vessel, and Louis Espina, who is said
to own all the arms. They were told
that the government would no longer
detain the vessel or the arms seized
aboard the lighter Stranahan, but that
the dynamite and ammunition would
still be held, as the carrying Of this
portion of this cargo was a violation OF
the United States statutes.

Your we'll meant report Of the very few

not hear me and may misunderstood what

and women who because they have COM

we who do not belong to the criminal

as society reckons good and bad. For many
of us it could be said, looking upon our ina

criminal stands for "a formal and not an

In the matter of respectability and accept
tinctions; as for example, when we remark
the disgrace and unwqrthiness of the man

BUT THEY DIDN'T FIGHT.
Hot Meeting Between St. Paul and
Minneapolis Athletes.

The Twin City High School Dual
Athletic league met yesterday after
noon at the Y. NJ. CA. building, Mime
apolis, and made arrangements for the
field day which will be held on or
about May 10 at the state fair grounds
in the Midway district. Other busi-
ness concerning the constitution and
bylaws Of the league was also trans
acted. President George Cole, of the
Central high school, Minneapolis, pre-
sided. Irwin Angst, of the same school
served as secretary. The other mem
bers present were Earl Connor, vice
president; Charles Parlin, Minneapo-
lis; Al Armstrong, Chester Griggs,
Alex Nicoll, Fred Stout ST. Paul
The meeting started out peaceably
enough, but before it was over the
same old Twin City ill-feeling, which
is apparent even in the rising genera
ton, was brought to the surface. and
for a time it looked as though the
league would disband. In polished
high school language the spirited sons
of both cities frequently intimated be-
fore adjournment was taken some were
not talking with a strict regard for
veracity. The st. Paul boys accused
the Minneapolitans of autocratic and
dictatorial conduct in trying to run
the meeting to suit their own best
wishes. On the other hand the Min
heapolfs boys declared that the wishes
of the ST Paulites had been consulted
too often. and they proposed to have
a little of the "say" in the matter
themselves. A satisfactory adjust
ment Of the differences was finally ef-
fected, however, and the sun came out
brightly after the threatened storm.
The trouble grew out of the discus
sion as to whether or not the ST. Paul
Manual Training school should be re-
garded and treated as a branch of the

APPROACHING A SETTLEMENT.
England and Venezuela Coming To-
gether Over the Yuruan Incident.

GhSianu anu teneZueIa Coming To-
gether Over the Yuruan Incident.
WASHINGTON, March 8. - It has
been learned that the British ambas-
sador here, Sir Julian Pauncefote, and
the Venezuelan minister in this city.
Senor Andrade, have entered into di-
rect negotiations for a settlement of
the Yuruan incident, which involved
the arrest Of a British police officer in
the territory in dispute between Vene-
zuela and Great Britain, the hauling
down Of the British flag, and a subse-
quent demand for an indemnity upon
the part Of Great Britain.
1t is impossible to learn to what stage
this prospective settlement Of the most
important incident rising out of the
dispute over the Venezuelan boundary
had advanced. When inquiry was made
at the British embassy Sir Julian
Pauncefote said that it was impossi-
bic to make any statement on the sub
ject. Senior Andrade, the Venezuelan
minister, was equally reserved, al
though his secretary declared that the
minister had had no direct communi-
cation with the British ambassador.
By attacking the problem in this fash
ion, and again opening direct negotia-
tions, the special tribunal created by
the United States to ascertain the loca-
ton of the boundary line may be rem
dered useless, but if boundary aeree-
ment is reached that Is satisfactory to
Great Britain and Venezuela there can
be no doubt but that it will be hailed
with relief by this country, and would
be welcomed by the administration, as
was made plain by the president in his
celebrated message.
