:. c. Henriques, who was United States

CARACAS, Venezuela, Dec. 16.-The
president has issued a decree that the gov
ernment of the federal district and the
presidents of all the states shall take legal
measures to collect all arms and ammuni-
tion in the country owned by private indi-
viduals before the opening of congress on
Feb. TO- This order does not apply TO the
munitions held by the army. Much COM
ment has been caused by this action Of the
executive. 1t has not developed whether it
was due to a fear OF a revolution as the
outcome of the hostility to Crespo on ac-
count Of his willingness TO agree to the
Olney Pauncefote arbitration treaty or not.

TAMPA, Fla, Dec. 1G-Letters received
here from Cuba state that - days ago,
near Carabayo, Colonel Moncando, with "A
detachment of Spanish soldiers, was pur-
suing a small band of insurgents when he
came upon five paciflcos, whom they bound
and took with them. Later they found
three women, who were compelled to ac-
company the soldiers. Finding it impossi-
ole to capture the fleeing band, the women
were assaulted, after which all the prison

official report said that they were killed in
oattle. Colonel Arangueren discovered the
bodies. One of the men, although suffer
ng from Is wounds, was still alive, and
ne revived sufficiently to tell the story.

ON THE STOCK EXCHANGE.

Monday. January Up m
There was decided increase In activity In
stocks to-day transactions reaching a total Of
800 39l shares. about 5000 shares more than has
been usual Of late. The opening was at advances
ranging from "a to per cent. but subsequently
reaction was brought on by proht-taking sales
and break in Sugar Refining which in turn
was followed toward the close By rally carry
ing many stocks well above Saturdays closing.
London was a moderate buyer In the early deal
ings. The general sentiment was disposed toward
the bull side Of the market, there being no dis
queting developments in the financial situation,
while the easier tone In the foreign exchange
market and several favorable statements OF
railway earnings contributed TO the cheerful!
speculative temperament. The December state
ments of ST Paul and Southern Railway, pub
lished in another place. are worthy OF attention
both showing marked improvement over Decem-
ber 1894 which in the case Of St Paul is an In
crease in net earnings Of s335.6l2, or from July
l. g. JSS,533 From the monthly statements or
St Paul since July l estimate for the halr-
wear may be made from which total income
would amount to 81. 1868. 1885,; fixed charges, ga
724 oss leaving a balance of s3245.so6, from which,
deducting the semi-annual dividend OF : per
cent on the common stock. a surplus OF SZSZS.Zel
would be left This estimate would indicate over
: per cent earned on the common stock In the
first half Of the fiscal year. assuming the COM
mon stock to be Sa6 OPT PSI, at the time OF the
company's last annual report.
Another statement made public to-day wnlch
shows the continued Improvement In raiway
trafic is that of the Northern Pacific for the
third week in January, which gives an increase
~ 800 1903 or s.. 7lO056 since July l.
