ENGLAND's VENEZUELAN CLAIMS
The Chronicle Points Out More Err
rOrs In the Blue Book.

TOTS the niue nooAs
London, March 1.-THE Daily Chronicle
tomorrow will publish another Of the
series of articles attacking the Venezue-
Ian blue book, recently issued by the gov
ernment, in which it will contend that the
statements that the claims to
the territory in the interior is
based upon the fact of posses
sion and occupation by the Dutch in the
eighteenth century, are disproved by the
very references to the documents cited.
The Chronicles article Will express fear
that the entire case viii be vitlated by
the assumption that the Dutchmen's row
ing descents upon the coasts and rivers of
the territory claimed constitute effective
occupation.
The Chronicle, in it's article. will an
nounce its intention TO deal in detail on
which 1t mentions briefly now. viz. that
the preliminary statement Of the British
case contains the following a formal
report was sent home to the Centurion in
April, 1I7O, containing among others, the
following important statements: We
have no fort on the Cuyuni, nor had we
ever one there. Our two forts are nothing
more than villages OF missions on the
northern bank of the Yuruari.'
The Chronicle Will remark that the Cen
turions report, perhaps the most impOr-
tant document in the blue book, contains
no such sentences as the foregoing and
that the supposed quotation Of 1t is simply
an inaccurate version, garblee for the pur-
pose of giving support TO the compiler's s
case. The purport of the Centurion's dis
patch was largely to the effect that the
Dutch did not hold anything on the Guy
uni except a settlement at its mouth.
where II joins the Essequibo.
In conclusion the article contends that
hve supposed quotations in the prelmi-
nary statement of the British case are in
accurate and misleading marvels and asks:
When we have a good enough case to ar
bitrate why try to prove more than we can
maintain"

FOUR MEN BLOWN TO ATOMS.
THE BOILER OF A LOCOMOTIVE
EXPLODEs.

Only Two Members of the Trains
Crew Left to Tell the stOry-The
Cause of the Explosion Not Likely
to Be Ever ExpIained-NOthing
But Small Pieces Left TO Represent
the Locomotive.
Hazleton, Pa, March 1.-THE boiler of
an engine of a coal train on the Delaware,
Susquehanna and Schuylkin railroad, ex-
plOded to-day, between Gum Run and
Derringer, instantly killing four of the
train crew and injuring severely a fifth
member of the crew. Only one man es-
capped unhurt.
The dead are: John Chambers. the engi-
neer; Jonas Stewart, the fireman; Frank
ODonnell, a brakeman, and Michael
Boyle, the conductor.
William Timony was severely injured
At the point where the explosion oc-
Cured the track runs through a lonely
ravine. 1t was showing heavily this morn
ing and the train had come to a stop.
William Tully, the fagman went to the
rear of the train. and the other five men
of the crew went aboard the engine to
keep warm. Timony stepped out of the
cab for a moment, and he had hardly put
his foot upon the ground before ter
rife explosion hurled him unconscious to
the earth.
The explosion shook Tully up at the end
of the train, and when he had recovered
his scattered senses he ran forward. A
terrible sight met his gaze. The engine
had disappeared entirely and half of the
coal cars were torn and twisted as If they
had been in collision. OF the men who
were on the engine at the time of the
explosion only pieces of torn and mangled
flesh were visible.
Tully went to Timonys aid, and, after
restoring him to consciousness, assisted
him to the nearest town, a mile away.
The cause of the explosion is not known,
and as the engineer and fireman are both
dead, it may never develop. All the men
killed lived at Freedland, this county.

New York March 1.-THE sensation at

nous trading and advance in American
Tobacco stock. the price having risen to
S@A, against ~ yesterday. There were
any number of rumors afloat to account
for the sharp rise. 1t was said that ne
gotiations were on foot looking to a set
tlement of the bitter war now going on
in the west. This, however, was denied
by people alleged TO represent the Drum
mond Tobacco Company, and the Leggett
a Meyers Co. of st. Louis, who state that
there was not the slightest truth in the
rumor OF a truce. St. Louis advices quot
ed Mr.. Drummond of the Drummond To-
bacco Company. as saying: Having no
business transactions or difficulties with
the American Tobacco Company. we have
absolutely nothing to compromise. Ws
are strictly attending to our business. and
the rumors that are anoat are no doubt
manufactured for stock jobbing purposes.
There is no more likelihood of the Drum
mond Tobacco Company consolidating
with the American Tobacco Company than
there is OF our city being washed bodily
to the seaboard."
Nevertheless. the denials did not check
the rising tendency OF the stock. Another
rumcr was that the American company
intended to resume dividends on the COM

CHANGES IN THE TARIFF LAW.

The House Committee Agrees on Ad-
ministrative Amendments.
Washington, March 1.-THE House COM
mittee on ways and means to-day ordered
Mr.. Payne of New York to report favor
ably to the House a bill proposed by the
committee amending the administrative
features of the present tariff law. An i'm
portant amendment is one suggested by
Assistant Secretary Hanlin, which re-
quires exporters to satisfy consular Off
GERS of the true value of the goods de-
sired to be shipped. Consular officers are
given authority to refuse to certify to in
voices unless the required oath is given
and no merchandise exported from that
country or consular district to the United
States is to be delivered on entry until
the required oath has been certified to
by the consular officer Another import
ant provision prohibits any person hold
ing a license as a customs broker from
administering oaths. This is intended to
stop the practice of allowing importers
the privilege of making oaths before their
own brokers.

The Latter Out of Condition for the
Bout.

New York, March 11.-After a long abb
sence from the roped arena Jack McAu-
life appeared tonight in a six-round bout
with Kid Lavigne at Madison Square
Garden. At times the lightweight cham-
pion showed some of his old-time quick
ness and cleverness. but he was in no
condition to antagonize the Kid, who had
the best of the argument. McAuliffe's
poor condition was telling on him fast
and he was nearly out when the police
stopped the bout.
owing to the action Of the authorities
no referee was appointed, and the men
spared for a popular verdict.
McAuliffe held a warm place in the
hearts Of the spectators because of his
previous reputation, but there was only
one verdict possible, and that was in La
vignes favor. Fully 5000 persons witt
messed the bout. After the contest McAu-
life challenged Iavigne to a finish fight
within ten weeks, and negotiations ara
now pending.
