Drawn Swords and Several
Are Injured.
SENIOR ELDUAYEN RESIGNS
The Duke of Tetuan Will Be His Sue.
cessor-War Preparations
Continue.

MADRID, SPAIN, March A party OF
employees in several cigar factories to unite
with them in demonstration of protest
against the legislation of the United States
Congress in regard to Cuba. Their invita-
tion, however, was declined.
A group of university students and citi-
zens who were attempting to incite the
public to make riotous demonstration
to-day were charged by the police with
drawn swords and were driven into near
by cafes and houses. A number of them
took refuge in the university, where they
trampled upon and afterward burned an
American flag. Sixteen of the rioters
were taken into custody and will be Sc
verely punished.
Senior Elduaven, who was recently ap-
pointed Minister of Foreign Affairs in
succession to the Duke of Tetuan, has re-
signed. A meeting of the Cabinet was
held this evening, at which Senior Eldu-
ayan announced that he had rendered his
resignation because he believed it to be de-
sirable that the same Minister who begins
negotiations with the United States and
other countries in regard to the Cuban
question should complete them. It is
understood that the Duke of Tetuan will
succeed the retiring Foreign Minister and
that he will take the oath of Office to- NOR
row.
At the meeting it was decided that the
universities should be closed for the pres
ent The Ministers also agreed to an un-
limited credit for the purchase OF artillery
and 10 call for recruits of naval infantry
and sailors.
A demonstration was attempted this
afternoon by the students of the univer-
sity, but the police were on the alert and
the dIsorderly proceedings were speedily
suppressed. Later 400 students of the
School of Medicine and number of citi-
zens who bad joined them were dispersed
by the police.
They soon reassembled, however, whist
ling at and jeering the officers. One
group of students, who were standing
close by lieutenant of police called the
latter coward and several of them at
tempted to strike him, whereupon the
lieutenant drew his revolver. The police

drawn swords upon the rioters. In the
melee which ensued few persons were
injured. 'All places of business in the
neighborhood were closed.
A dispatch from Panama to the Impair

whole of the territory on the east OF the
Amazon to Portugal.
To the west of this is large section, ex-
tending from the Amazon to the mouth OF
the Orinoco, marked "Guyani." This is
divided in twain, the Dutch part extend
ing from Barima to the river Mariwlnl
and the French part from Mariwini to
Cape Nord. on the delta of the Amazon.
The Spanish settlement of st. Thome, on
the Orinoco, appears on this map, but the
Dutch line from Barima is identical with
the line representing the extreme British
claim.
Sir Frederick Pollock claims that the
Spanlards at no time established them
selves in Guiana proper until they overran
part of the British territory to the Cuyani
in and since 1858. They got no further
than the Orinoco. The fact that ST. Thome
is marked on the French map as the ex-
treme limit of their stations is borne out
by Dutch map. which, in 1913. was pre-
pared for the Committee of the Colonies
of the Batavian Republic by Major Won
Luchenroeder.
This map was prepared to assist the
statesmen who were negotiating the ces-
sion of the Dutch colonies in South Amer
lea to the British. Sir Frederick gives de-
tails showing that it was upon the basis of
this and similar maps that the cesslon was
effected.
Correspondence taken from the archives
shows that when the Spanish showed
themselves in the Cuyani Valley the
Dutch Government vigorously protested
to Spain against the encroachments OF her
subjects upon Dutch territory. The ar
chives show that Spain did not answer the
protests of the Dutch Government. Ger
tainly Spain did not assert her ownership
of the region in question. The States
General of Holland in 1859 and in 1869 set
for the Dutch territorial rights and de-
manded reparation for Spanish violation
thereof. The correspondence showed that
the Dutch asserted ownership of the entire
watershed of the Essequibo, and laid great
stress upon their rights to The Cuyani,
upon the upper reaches of which stream
they had established gold diggings, and
had been on terms Of intercourse with the
Indian tribes there for $50 years in making
researches.
The evidence which Spain placed at the
disposal of the Foreign Office shows that
Spain did not rebut the claim made by the
Dutch to the territory throughout the
basin of the Cuyani.
The Dutch archives are 80 well kept that
Sir Frederick Pollock has been able to
make an irrefragable case for British own
erstip of the Cuyani basin as having been
inherited in the Dutch. though no absolute
evidence is adducible to show how far the
Dutch held the country between the natu-
raj geographical delimitation known as
the Schomburg line and the bank of the
Orinoco.
The report, after exhausting the evidence
prior to English acquisition of the coun-
try, deals with the more recent diplomatic
aspects of the case, which are not sum-
married..

Polfock's Report Has Not Helped Great

Poliock's Report Has Not Helped Great
Britasa's Case.
WASHINGTON, D. c., March 4.--The
United Press cablegram giving summary
of the brief in the boundary dispute pre-
pared by Professor Sir Frederick Pollock
was read with deep interest by members
of the Venezuelan Commission in town
to-day. Entirely without prejudice to the
merits of case which, of course, cannot
be weighed until all the evidence accom-
panying Professor Pollock's argument is
disclosed, the Commissioners are evil
IDENTIFY gratifed that the British Govern
ment with all the resources it has enjoyed
for securing evidence has apparently not
obtained much if any more testimony
than the commission has been able to
collect here during its short but energetic
existence.
The Government of Venezuela had
already furnished to the State Department,
before the United States intervened in the
affair last July, most of the correspond
ance which had been carried on with Great
Britain, and complete copies of all the
documents are promised by Venezuela be-
fore the end of this week.
Al the Venezuelan legation the state
ment of the British case was declared to
be pitiably weak and easily disposed Of
Minister Andrade said it did not contain
an item which had not already been fully
met and disproved in documents furnished
to Secretaries Bayard and Gresham by the
Venezuelan Government. All the argu-
ments now presented by Sir Frederick
Pollock which had not been included in
Lord Salisbury's letters of November 26
last, leading to President Cleveland s
special message, had already been aban-
doned by British statesmen. It was pre-
posterous now for Great Britain to attempt
to go behind the treaty of Munster to
show that the Dutch had settlements in
Guiana, for, up to that time, Holland was
a Spanish dependency, just as Guiana was.
With the recognition of the indepen-
dence of the Dutch by the treaty of Num-
ster in 1648 the Essequibo became the
eastern boundary OF the Spanish posses
sions, and by the treaty of Utrecht in 1888
England obligated herself to enforce that
boundary. The Dutch colonies did not
pass to English until 1796. and from that
time until 1886, forty years, every English
map, cyclopedia, history or other work
bearing on Guiana gave either the Esse-
auibo or the Pomaron as the western Eng
lish limit. Barima. at the mouth of the
Orinoco, may have been occupied by the
Dutch when Spain was sovereign of Hol-
land, as shown by early maps, but Minis
ter Andrade noted that Sir Frederick
Pollock has found no map giving the
Dutch that point after the treaty of Mum
ster.
No fear is expressed by the members of
the legation as to the result of the Ven
ezuelan Commissions labors. They are
confident that the decision will be en- tirely
in conformity with the Venezuelan con-
tentiOn.

HAVANA HEMMED IN.

HAVANA, CUBA (via Key West, Fla.), /,
March 4.-The Government is holding 5000
troops quartered in the Notifications oil
the city in readiness to suppress disorder
and demonstrations against Americans
here. Extra police guards are placed con.
venient to the American consulate. The
only manifestations of hostile feeling vet
were a few shouts, s'Death to Uncle Sam !''
while the new troops were landing Tues
day and hisses round the cab in which
two Americans were driven in side
street. There are some apprehensions but
no alarm among American residents.
There is great confidence in the ability OF
General Weyler to preserve order.
The better treatment of Americans here
than at Barcelona or Madrid, is largely
due to the fact that the populace there is
Spanish and here they are Cubans. The
students here, both Spanish and Cuban,
are friendly to the States. Cuban property
holders and merchants, and also many
Spanish, whose markets are in the States,
are more pleased than otherwise, at the
prospect of Congressional Intervention,
which, meaning an early restoration OF
quiet, would save many from bankruptcy.
Even local Spaniards admit this. Such
hostility as is shown is confined here to
the office-holding classes and to others re.
ceiving Government bounty.

FREDERICK PoLL0CK's REPORT.
English Contention Said to Have Been
Borne Out by the Spanish
Archives.

LONDON, Eng, March 4. = The st.
James Gazette, under the caption 1.-The
British Case Against Venezuela" pub
fishes two columns OF matter which 1t
claims is summary of the report made
by Sir Frederick Pollock for submission to
Parliament. The Gazette says that be-
sides having at his disposal documents in
the possession of the British Colonial and
Foreign Offices, Sir Frederick Pollock has
drawn freely from information made ac-
cessible to the British Government by the
Keepers of the Archives of Spain and Hol-
land.
The material supplied by Holland covers
the period from the latter part Of the six
teenth century to the second decade Of the
nineteenth century, and the Spanish docu-
ments cover the period since the first
ascent of the Amazon by Orellana in 1912.
and from the first ascent of the Orinoco by
Juan Martinez, until Venezuela, in 1880,
assumed Independent existence.
The evidence includes the particulars
and circumstances under which the Eng
lish took possession of the Dutch West
India colonies in 1881, 1876 and 1903 and
the treaties under which these transfer
ences were ratified. The evidence also in
cludes the story of correspondence and
negotiation with the various governments
bv Venezuela from 184O down to the pres
ent time.
The information supplied by the Colonial
Office comprises that collected by the sue
cessive Governors of the territory since
the administration of Colonel Nicholson
in 1903 as regards ths extent and charac-
ter of the Dutch occupation and explora-
tion of the interior. and also the details Of
the Venezuelan incursions into British
territory between the Orinoco and the
Guyani; the attempt of American con-
cessionaires to establish themselves in
British Guiana; the steps taken to main
tain British ownership, and the work done
by Great Britain to ascertain the natural
and geographical boundary, without preju-
dice to strict territorial rights beyond such
boundary.
These documents, with important maps
bearing thereon, show British case oi
overwhelming strength against Vene-
zuela's pretensions of ownership to the
west bank of the Essequibo.
The report shows that the Dutch had
from the earliest times possession OF the
coast of Guiana as far north as the mouth
of the Orinoco, such possession implying
the right Of ownership of the Hinterland
rightexercised by the Dutch. One OF the
early Dutch maps. printed in Amsterdam

HELENA, Mont, March 4.-The fire at
the Bozeman tunnel is still burning
fiercely and there are no prospects OF ex-
tinguishing it. The damage is beyond all
estimate. The tunnel is now probably a
total wreck. A large gang of men is
building track around the cave-in, and
in the meantime passengers, baggage and
express are transferred by wagons over the
mountains, distance of several miles.
Freight trains arc all blockaded and the
passenger trains are eight hours late.
The temporary track will probably be
finished tomorrow. Freightyards in the
larger towns on both sides of the tunnel
are rapidly filing up with freight which
cannot be moved until the track il
finished.

spector of steam vessels for the Pitts
burg and Cincinnati districts is in the

He will remain here several days and

tions now being conducted by Captains
Atkinson and Phillips, the local inspec-
tors. Captain Chancellor said yester-
day that the order concerning life boats
issued recently had met with prompt
obedience in his district. Every boat
must be equipped with the regulation
life boat according to the established
government rules. and unless the order
is obeyed promptly, Captain Chancellor
said, the boat owners may find them
selves in collision with federal law.

Found dead
There is something so shocking about
sudden death that the mere mention of 1t
wrenches the nerves of sensitive people.
Millions of people pray for deliverance from
1t. Every Sunday in every Episcopal church
in the world, these words are said:
From battle, and murder and sudden death,
Good Lord, deliver u.s."
Just why sudden death should be shock
ing, and death after lingering disease easy
to bear, would puzzle any one to tell. 1t
would seem that 1t would be more terrible
to see some loved one wasting away, daily
becoming weaker-daily slipping toward a
death no less certain because it was slow in
coming. Consumption causes more deaths
than heart disease - more than cholera
more than yellow fever more than any
other disease the world has ever known.
And yet people are careless about 1t. man
ease can avoid the danger simply by keeping
quiet and avoiding excitement. Consump-
ton goes right on with its deadly work, no
matter what the man does or how he con-
ducts himself If he doesn't take the right
medicine to cure it. Consumption affects
the whole body. It is blood disease. 1t
permeates the whole system. 1t shows in
the lungs because the blood goes to the
lungs for purifcation. 1t carries impurities
there to be made pure. If there is too much
impurity, the lungs are over-worked-over-
loaded the impurity stops there. The
germs of disease stop there. They develop
and multiply and then consumption takes
definite form. DR.. Pierce's Golden Med
