Washington, Jan. 16.-At the begin

today Mr.. Grow (Republican, Pennsyl-
yania) sent to the clerks desk to he
read as the basis of a statement upon
a question of privilege. an extract from
a pamphlet published by the New

feet that congress had refused to pay

Limits Of Monroe Doctrine.
A resolution offered by Mr.. Sewell,
CRep.. \. j., and which now lies on lne
table, condemns the course of the
president in the Venezuelan boundary
dispute and defines the limits of the
Monroe doctrine. 1t declares that the
| Monroe doctrine was originally meant
| to prevent European powers from ac-
curing the then revolving Spanish col
| onies when their acquisition would. by
reason of propinduity, be dangerous
| to the safety OF this government: and
! that We have never given any pledge
that binds us to act merely Tor the
/ protection from invasion of these coun-
! tries unless our integrity Is menaced
1t then states that the president has
pressed the doctrine beyond what was
| originally contemplated and that the
result would be to commit this govern
ment to Il protectorate over Mexico
and the Central and South American
| states; that this course of the presi-
dent was unwise and dangerous, vio-
lating our time honored policy of avoid
ing entangling alliances with foreign
powers: and that such action. In view

Georgc kenuan, the Traveller. Expresses
tho Opinion That the Red Gross Work
VIII Not BE Carried On.


Pittsburg, Pa. Jan. 16.-Mr. George
Kennan,th celebrated traveller, in talk
ing about Armenia today, said:
1T is absolutely improbable that the
Red Cross will seek to enter Armenia
to relieve the enormous distress there,
for two reasons:
"The Sultan has forbidden it, and,
quite justly, our government will offer
Clara Barton and her band no assist
ance.
"Supposing the Red Cross should
carry their good samaritan work into
the districts where these massacres are
reported, the results would be that their
reports would give full detail of the at
rocities committed by the Turks on the
defenseless Armenians.
1T is these reports that the Sultan
fears, and it is to evade broadcasting
them that he denies admission to the
Red Cross.
'"rhe country" he says, sis now in
the midst of a rigorous winter; 1t is
very mountainous, and the roads, at
best, are hardly more than bride paths.
This would make 1t impracticable at
this season for the members of the So
ciety to carry on their work in Armenia.
The sultan would never permit the nee
essary military escort to guard the sup
plies from the attacks of the Kurds
which infest the mountain highways,
and the sufferings of the Red Cross
people from these causes can only be
imagined"

Secretary Chamberlain Anxious That tho
fiIibustcrcrs Have Fair Triai-Protsc-
tiOu for American Citizen.

FiIibustcrcrs Have Fair Trini-Protsc-
tiou for American Citizen.
London. Jan. 16.-On Jan. IA Joseph
Chamberlain. secretary of state for the
colonies, sent a cablegram to Sir Her.
cules Robinson. governor of the Cape
Colony, asking for certain specific in
formation in regard to the members Of
the reform committee and other per-
sons recently arrested at johannesburg
by the Boer authorities and taken to
Pretoria for confinement pending their
tiial. In this message Mr.. Chamber
lain expressed fears that wholesale ar
rests would disorganize the industries
which are carried on In the Rand terri
tory. and asked Governor Robinson to
ascertain and report what the persons
arrested We're accused of. when they
would be tried for the offenses of which
they We're charged, whether bail would
be allowed in their cases pending trial,
what were the penalties prescribed by
the laws of the Transvaal government
for acts of which the prisoners were
accused, etc.
To this dispatch Governor Robinson
replied by wire today that the arrested
men were accused of treason and also
of seeking to subvert the government
Of the Transvaal, and that they would
be tried by the high court of the South
African republic, but that the date of
their trial had not yet been fixed. Gov
ernOr Robinson said that the govern
ment of the Transvaal republic seemed
to be acting within their legal rights,
anu added that upon leaving Pretoria
to return to Cape Town he urged
President Kruger to observe modera-
tiOn toward the accused men in order
that he and his government might not
aiienate the sympathy which they now
ENJOY.
Protection for Anne ericaus.
Washington, Jan. 1G.-Nothing fur
ther bearing on the arrest of John Hays
Hammond and other Americans in the
South African republic has been re-
ceived by Secretary Olney, except a
cable dispatch from Mr.. Manyon. Unit
| ed States consular agent at Johannes
burg. saying that Mr. Olney's instruc-
items relative to securing protection
for American citizens had been received
and would be attended to.
British consular officers in the Trans
vaal are presumably caring for the in
terests of citizens of this country. in
accordance with the request of Secre-
tary Olney and the instructions of Co
lonial Secretary Chamberlain, with
diligence equal to that pursued in the
cases of British subjects.
