MIR. ANDRADE DELIGHTED.
Thinks There Is Chance of Settling
 the Matter

WASHINGTON, Jan. 16. -Senor Jose Andrade, the Venezuelan minis ter to the United States, was shown the cab1egrams to the effect that Great Britain, according to the Westminster Gazette, was about ito renew the effort to re-establish direct diplomatic rela- tions with Venezuela, the overtures to be made through the good offices of an American state, not the United States. The minister seemed much pleased at the news contained in the dispatches, but called attention to the fact that this was merely renewal of the policy urged by Great Britain toward Vene- zuela since the beginning of the boun- dary dispute. In diplomatic circles here the impression obtained that the news contained in the dispatches, com ing at this time, indicated a back down in Great Britain's attitude to- ward the South American rejublic. Chilli was regarded as the country through Great Britain was most likely to make any new representations to Venezuela, as it's relation with that country are now cordial.

 Chicago. The Meeting of the National
 Committee. A Proposition to Change the Time- Honored Basis Of Repre-
 SentatiOn.

WASHINGTON Jan. 16.-The Dem ocratic National convention will be held July T. The National committee decided today on this date. The Op- position motion favored June 2. The Vote was 32 to IS in favor of July '. The resolution of Patrick Collins of Massachusetts offered in the conven- tion of 1892 that the next National con- yention be held behind closed doors, was reported adversely by the sub committee to which it was referred and the report was adopted unani- mously.
 It was decided to give each city thirty minutes to present its claims, but a new departure was made by adopting a resolution requiring each city to put its guarantee in writing to prevent misunderstanding in the future.
 Senator Morgan, who held the proxy of Clayton of Alabama talked for some time about a proposition to change the basis of representation in the con- ventfon to two delegates for each Dem ocratic repr presentative in congress and two for each Democratic senator and one each for each Republican senator and representative. He may bring the question up at the convention.
 It was decided to allow each terri tory six delegates, after which the committee took a recess until o'clock

IN THE HOUSE.

WASHINGTON Jan. 16. There were some interesting episodes in the house today inspired by MT. Grow, Re publican, who declared that the New York chamber of commerce in a pam phlet widely circulated, had cast re- iections upon the good faith of the house. The pamphlet criticised the house for not paying Canadian sealers $400,000, which it was asserted had been arbitrated and awarded to own SITS of seized vessels. Mir Crisp, Dem ocrat, made the point that the pamph- let presented no questionof privileges
 MT. Grow contended that since re- fiections upon the members of the house were questions of privilege a reflection upon the whole house was so much more of a privilege. The board of arbitrators did not award a dollar damages, MT. Grow declared If that had been done it would have been dishonest not to have paid it, and it is a reflection upon this house to say such award was made and not paid"
 The speaker ruled that no question of privileges was presented, where upon MT. Grow took his seat, saying, well, am satisfied
 The bill was passed authorizing the leasing of lands in Arizona for educa- tional purposes.

to her hull were being made. He contended that this would be to the advantage of the government, as the crew would keep the vessel and arma- ment in order, while if the Texas were placed out of commission expense would be incurred in transferring all her stores, and long term of idleness might prove dangerous to the guns, machinery and other appurtenances. With few officers and seventy-fi i've men Captain Glass thought the battle ship would be kept in frst-class or der, and there would be enough of the crew remaining to man the ram Katah- din, which will soon go into service. Secretary Herbert has taken the mat ter under consideration.
 The official report of the recent test of the Texas engines and machinery was received at the navy department today. It showed that the vessel failed to make the required horsepower of $500 by narrow margin, but that this was so largely due to endorsements caused by accidents to the Texas dur ing her several attempts at trial trips that the test was not fair one.
 The machinery will probably be ac- cepted from the contractors, the Rich mond (Va.) locomotive works, with out exaaion of penalty. It is said that the contractors are so dissatisfied with the unfavorable circumstances under which the tests of their machinery were held that they will request extra compensation on the basis of the pre- mium offered for the excess of horse power developed.
