VENEZUELAN TREATY.
There is no Doubt But That it is
Acceptable to the People Generally.

Washington, Dec. 29.-The Venezuelan
Minister Senior Jose Andrade, who ar
rived in New York on Saturday from
Caracas reached Washington last night.
Mr.. Andrade was reticent regarding the
glO-VeneZuelan treaty, and stated that
he could not at present. for diplomatic
reasons. make public any informal ton
rived on the steamer that brought Mr..
Andrade to this country, disprove the
correctness of the dispatches printed sew
eral weeks ago that when the terms of
the treaty became known in Caracas
great Indignation existed among the peo-
exerted to prevent its ratification. All
the information is to the contrary. 1t is
stated in these letters that while Mr.
Michelani, the former minister to Eng
land, objected particularly TO the 50-year
clause of the treaty, his protest was con-
tanned in a single letter published in a
Caracas newspaper. 1t was Immediately
followed by a succession of other letters
from former secretaries of state, former
Venezuelan ministers at Washington and
London, and other prominent persons,
declaring that the treaty was precisely
what Venezuela desired and which she
had asked Great Britain a score of
Years ago TO make. 1t is argued from
this and from other information which
some weeks that the treaty is acceptable
to the Venezuelan people generally and
it is not doubted that it will be promptly
signed by Senior Andrade and Sir Julian
Pauncefote, representing respectively
Venezuela and Great Britain.
At noon yesterday Secretary Olney
drove to the British embassy and had a
long conference with Sir Julian Paunce-
fote presumably with reference to the
treaty.

CLAY

1t was in the year eighteen hundred
and something that Henry Clay first
fell in love. He was then poor.
freckled-faced boy, and with the work
of wearing out his fathers old clothes
in the day time and studying all night
in chilly attic, he was so busy that
he didn't realize that he had got it
bad" until he began to lose his ap-
petite for corn cakes. Few people who
knew Henry then believed that he
would ever amount to much, but in a
few years he began to shine and after
wards grew to be an exceedingly bril-
liant man. 1t is supposed that Henry
always wore clothes made of clay
worsted, to avoid the possibility of
having a suit that would try to out
shine him, because Clay Worsted never
shines. Any amount of hard wear on
a suit made of Clay Worsted will fail
to bring any bright spots on the ell
bows of the seat of the trousers. We
sell our heavy weight Black Clay
Worsted suits at SIS for the up-to-
fashion Getaway or Sack Suit They
are finished with surprising nicely and
made to fit as best suit should. They
are a black that is absolutely, totally,
unfadable black. We have a mighty
easy time in selling them to the peo-
pie who buy the best ready-to-wear
suits in the town.

TILES ANSWER.
He Comes Back at the Papers that
Criticised Him.

Washington, Dec. 29.-General Miles an
swers attacks made upon him in western
newspapers in regard to his action in
respect to the Jefferson barracks at st.
Louis, by stating that when on October
last he returned from his tour of inspec-
ton of military posts in the west he
found at Jefferson barracks more COM
plant concerning the location of that fort
than of any of the other stations. There
was some complaint that there was and
had been many cases of typhoid and
other fevers, and that the ground was
honeycombed with deep lagoons, some
below the level of the river and it WAS
believed that the drainage from st. Louis
seeped through the quickSand at high
water and left poisonous germs at the
base of the lagoon. The commanding
officer stated to the commanding general
of the army that it could never be made
a suitable cavalry post. He said that
it had cost $1,000 to fill up one of these
lagoons, and that there were at least 50
on the reservation. General Miles di-
rected board of experts to make a
thorough investigation of the sanitary
condition of that ground to guard the
welfare of the troops and the public.
General Miles also states that he has
not the slightest prejudice against St.
Louis, or any section of the United
States. and he never knew, until he saw
it in the papers. that the representatives
of the Loyal Legion voted for his old
friend. General Gibbon, as commander,

instead of himself The election of Gen.
eral Gibbon was entirely satisfactory to
him. The question of the condition of
the Arcadia valley was matter already
decided as far as General Miles was
concerned. as he had on November 10.
recommended the purchase of that
ground for a reserve. General Miles has
never recommended the abandonment of
Jefferson barracks His future action
will be governed by the official report
concerning that station.

TARIFF TINKERING.
HOW MANUFACTURERS WOULD
LIKE THINGS FIXED.
Schedule One, Cotton Manufactures,
Occupies the Attention of the
Committee on Ways and Means.

Washington, Dec. 29.-The second day
of the tariff hearing before the commit
tee of ways and means of the house OF
representatives was taken up with the
discussion of schedule l, cotton manu-
features" The first section of the seized
ule relates to the duty on cotton thread
and carded yarns and warp yarns The
gentlemen who We're present to enIighten
the committee in regard to those manu-
features were Messrs. Andrew B. San
ford, r. c. Kerr and w. d. Rowland
representing the Cotton Spinners' asso-
citation of Fall River, Mass, and Messrs
J. A. Campbell. J. c. Young and P J.
McNally of Manayunk, Pa. Mr.. Sanford
stated the views of the Cotton Spinners'
association and was subjected to close
questioning on the part of the two DEM
ocratic members. Mr.. Sanford said that
the provisions placed in the tariff bill had
practically made it an ad valorem meas
ure. 1t was simply impossible. he said,
for the spinners of this country to put
out any fine yarns and the mill had
been compelled TO stop the making of
fine yarns.
Robert Pilling of Philadelphia, maker
of stockings and underwear, said the
present law was not satisfactory. and eS-
pecially on foreign goods. Referring to
labor he said that here it was paid four
times as much as it was in Germany, the
great competitor in the stocking trade.
COTTON CLOTH.
H 3. Chase of Fall River, Mass, spoke
for the makers of cotton cloth. They
were not sufficiently protected on the fine
end of the business, he said, and would
ask for a few amendments to the present
law in this direction. They wanted a
new classification for clothes, exceeding
300 threads to the square inch-otherwiSe
they were satisfied with the present du-
ties.
They also desired to have goods known
as figured weaves' specially provided
for He complained of ad valorem duties
and the under valuation practiced under
them.
ABOUT STOCKINGS.
R. w. Cooper of Olneyville. r. l.. a
manufacturer of fine grades of stockings
asked for a tariff of 80 cents per dozen
and so per cent ad valorem on all goods
costing $50 per dozen and under. His
company had been doing business for II
years, and had never paid dividend. It
was beginning to get on its feet under
the Mckinley law. but under the present
tariff had Just managed to exist.
w. R. Craig of Mississippi on behalf
of producers of extra staple cotton Of
the Mississippi valley, asked for protec-
ton against Egyptian cotton. This cot
ton he said came into direct competition
with the domestic product and to a
large extent had driven the domestic
growers out.
SUGAR SCHEDULE.
The commission adjourned until to-
morrow when the sugar schedule will be
taken up.
