three reasons. First, because of anticipated

SYRACUSE, N. Y, March Ga dispatch
from Omaha published in this morning S
Post, says reports received from the east
there states that persons are soliciting aid
in the eastern and middle states for Ne
braska sufferers. The Omaha dispatch also
says that stories of destitution and suffering
in Nebraska are not confirmed by exhaustive
investigation by the secretary Of the Ne
braska State Board of Agriculture. This
statement has created some uneasiness here
in consequence of the fact that Rev. G. S.
Hawley. claiming to come from the Ne
braska Methodist conference, left here day
or two after collecting more than 500 from
the churches and the Epworth league conven>
tion for the Nebraska sufferers. Mr. Haw-
ley stated it was not necessary to pay the
money to him and said the church could
send the money to r. B. Snyder of Fremont,
Neb.. who was authorized to receive 1t. The
people are in doubt as to whether his stories
are true and as to his authority to collect
money for the purpose stated.

Rev. S. H. Hawley is not known in Ere

MADRID March 6.-As result of the
publication in Ell Dia that the Spanish min
lister at Washington had notified the govern
ment that President Cleveland would veto
a Cuban resolution a statement was made
today from an authoritative source as to the
extent of the information received from the
minister at Washington 1t shows that he
has kept the government fully advised of all
actual developments, but has not anticipated
action in any branch Up to the. present
time the minister has not informed the gov
errment that the president will Veto the
Cuban resolution. nor is he informed, so far
as the government knows, what the future
course of the executive authorities at Wash
ington would be. At the same time the
ministry has access to the dispatches le-
ceved by the news agencies. at Paris London
and Madrid, and some of these recent dis
patches which have been widely published
throughout Europe as indicating the prob
able course of the administration authorities
at Washington, have borne the stamp of au-
thenticity and have been accepted as semi
official and authoritative. They have been
regarded by officials, as well as by the gen.
eral public, as correctly forecasting the prob
able course of the Washington authorities
To this the Spanish minister at Washington
has not added his official advice nor has
he stated that he has any assurance as 10
the future of the Cuban resolutions.
Oficia advces from Havana show that
Maceo has made bold march to the porth
with a view to meeting Calixto Garcia who
was expected to arrive with arms and am
munition. After learning that the Garcia
expedition was a failure Maceo was unable
to move eastward or to reach the southern
everglades, and was compelled to move west
into Havana province It is believed that his
purpose was in part a feint' to prevent the
re!nforcements arriving at Havana from
carrying out their projected movements No
uneasiness is felt at the presence Of Maceo
in Havana province. He has failed to effect
n juncture with Gomez and is 200 miles

LONDON, March 6.--The British blue book
on the Venezuelan boundary dispute was
laid on the table of the House Of Commons
today. Following is a summary of the posi-
tion of Great Britain, as published in the
book referred to:
l. Long prior to, and at the time of the
treaty of Munster in 1916, the Dutch founded
settlements in various parts of British
Guiana, particularly on the coast.
2. The only Spanish settlement prior tc
them was Santo Home de Guayana.
3, During the whole period from 1913 to
1876 the Dutch had uninterrupted posses.
sion of the entire coast line and the river
Corentn to Barma.
4. During the same period they had eX'
plored the upper portions of nearly all the
rivers and made many settlements in ad.
jacent districts.
5. Prior to 1923, there was no settlement
of Spaniards except Santo Home dc
6. Between 1724 and 1896 capuchin mis-
sons were established southward of the
point occupied by the span!alrds being Tum'
Z. Before 1896 the Dutch had settled far
up the Cuyuni,, a Dutch post was estab;
lished near the Yuruary, and the Dutch had
8. Except for the settlement of Santc
Home de Guayana and their missions, the
Spanards exercised no authority in the
territory now in dispute.
8. Great Britain, on becoming possessoI
of the colony, succeeded to all the rights
TO- After 1856 Great Britain extended her
settlements and exercised over the terri,
the rights whereby nations usually indi.
cate a claim to territory.
IL Neither Spain nor Venezuela, after the
latter had declared her Independence, al
any time had possession dominion over
the territory In question.
~ Great Britain, while maintaining heI
just rights, has consistently shown de.
sire to make a fair Arrangement with
Venezuela in regard to the boundary.
13. The claim of Venezuela that her ter.
rtory extends to the Essiquibo is based
and cannot be justified on any reasonable
ground. The foregoing thus establishes
Great Britain in her strict right to be en-.
titled to the territory extending to Barima
including the watersheds of the Essiqubo
Cuyuni Yuruari, Pomaroon, Waini and
Barima.

Three years ago this spring Peter Wllborg
left his home in California for Cooks Inlet,
Alaska. For nearly three years he worked
increasingly in the gold regions. Last No

visit, bringing with him $4s,0OO in gold dust
and nuggets. After banking $4,000 in San
Francisco he started out to have good time
on the remainder $l3, ,098. He spent four
months in the eastern and southern cities,

money.
Last night he left here on the steamer
City of Topeka, on his return to the Alaska
gold fields. While the steamer was lying
at the wharf he amused himself by throwing
double handfuls of silver dollars at the boys
on the wharf. Every boy who could hit the
eccentric Alaska miner with snow bail re-
ceived a handful Of coin in return. Wilborg
appeared to enjoy the sport as much as the
boys. After the boat pulled out from the
wharf he pelted the boys with money.
