WESTERN FREIGHT POOL.

be formed, when the interstate COM

Of the Western roads, finding the COM
mission had quietly allowed the Joint
traInc agreement to become operative
nave met and disposed of several OBJ
stacles which stood in the way Of an
agreement as to the terms and details
OF a pool. The matter which was taken
up at the meeting held in Chicago was
what has been termed the Union League
agreement, which was born Of a num-
Der of executive meetings held late in
the fall
AT these meetings Of the traffic men
matters came up which they thought
wise to refer to their vice presidents
ana general managers, and owing to the
possibility that the commission would
san INTO the joint traffic agreement the
western compact was allowed to rest
quietly awaiting developments. Now
the Western freight men have come out
boldly and have determined to put the
agreement in effect at once. The ST.
Paul freight men declare that but three
tflnlng matters have to be settled. and
were handled yesterday IN Chicago by

i've oilcers, who will report today to

OKLAHOMA HOWLERS.
Their Statehood Convention Ends in
q FizzIe,

OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla, Jan. s.
fight was in sight as soon as the
statehood convention met at 10 o'clock
this morning. Frank w. Thompson,
double slater" and w. T. Walker,
Single stater," took sides on each
end Of the platform and tried to talk
at the same time, At once the dele
gates mounted chairs, each faction
yelling for it's side. Amid the clamor
7. F. Hensley, double stater," was
nominated for chairman, and as soon
as his name was mentioned he Jumped
to the stage. For five minutes he
talked against the clamor. Gradually
his loud tones drowned out the noise,
and one delegate after another sub
sided. Then the question of selecting
the committee on credentials arose
Finally Chairman Hensley declared
the motion to appoint five members
on the committee carried. Those op-
posed yelled for an appeal from the de-
cision of the chair. From till 2:30
the delegates, 500 of them, howled.
Then Patrick Nagle, of Kingfisher,
pleaded for peace and harmony, and
moved that the committee on creden-
tials be composed of one from each
delegation. This was carried, and
then there was a lively quarrel over
the recognition of the delegates from
the Chickasaw nation. At s:15 p. m.
the convention came to an inglorious
end. AT that hour the committee on
credentials, having been unable to re-
port owing to the strife between the
''single staters'' and the double stat
ers," Chairman Hensley declared the
convention adjourned sine die. For half
an hour afterward the utmost con-
fusion prevailed. and finally, when the
uproar was approaching the proper
tions of a riot, Sheriff Deford turned
out the lights and ordered the dele
gates from the hall into the street.
This, it is believed, will end all or
ganized effort to secure statehood
from the present congress.

who would risk their lives as quickly

VENEZUELA IN A FERMENT.
TO RESIST ANY INVA-

cREspo CREATES A SENSATION.
He Wants to Put the Leaders of the
Revolution to Death at
Once.

NEW YORK, Jan. S.--A World spec
ial from Caracas dated Jan. says:
News Of grave import has Just been
received from the Guiana frontier.
The government Is notified that troops,
with rifle and cannon, from Demarara,
have arrived at a station at the ex-
treme limit of the English claims in
the disputed territory and the scene
Of the Yuruan incident, where English
officials were arrested by Venezuelans.
The number of the invaders in uncer-
tain. Some of the papers say there
are over 1000, but that Is probably an
exaggeration. There are possibly half
hundred Guiana police. The govern
ment gives no notice as to what ac-
ton it will take. It is probable, how
ever, that it will send some troops to
the scene, with orders to be cautious
but at the same time to resist invasion.
There is joy here over the English
defeat in the Transvaal Caracas was
shaken by an earthquake last night.
The shock was Of considerable duration
but no serious damage is reported.
Other Caracas specials to the World
say: Political arrests continue. They
now number about 900. The belief Is
increasing that the enemies Of the gov
ernment are being aided by British
gold. 1t is even run1ored that England
will furnish the rebels with a warship.
The militia enlistments to date number
11,0C0. Admiral Rutowsky, of the Ven
ezuelan navy, has sailed with his flag
ship, carrying war supplies to the sea-
ports on the west coast.
There was a grand banquet at the

President Crespo was to have presided,
but ill-health prevented his attendance.
His secretary, Gen. Nunez, spoke for
him. The United States minister made
conservative reply which was re-
ceived with enthusiasm
CALLS IT TREASON.
President Crespo has issued a remark
able decree officially recognizing the ex-
istence of. the revolutionary movement
He says that, in view of the fact that
the country is on the verge of an inter
national conflict, he regards it not as
revolution, but as treason. It is be-
Heved that CreSpo's- deeree is aimed es-
pecially at GuZman Blanco or Bojas
Paul, who are supposed to be treating
with England in the interest of the re-
bell1on. 1t is rumOred that the leaders
Of the rebellion will be executed.
Another sensation has been created by
the issue of an order prohibiting COM
munlcation between ships and the shore.
1t is especially aimed at an American
citizen, Schimma, agent of the Red D
line at La Guayra. The president says
he will try to accept American ships.
There is no official charge against
Schimma. Something serious is brew
ing, put rumors are vague as to it's char
acter. The situation is alarming.

from so doing when he learned Of DR..
