Secretary of the Commission An.
thorizes a Report.
WASHINGTON, March 21.-Mr.
Milet-Provost, secretary of the Vene-
zuela commission, today authorized
the following statement:
During the past week a report has
become current that the commission
has reached decision with reference
to the boundary question favorable to
Venezuela. This having been denied,
the report has been circulated in an
other form, and it is now asserted that
while the commission as a body has
reached no such conclusion, the COM
mlssloners individually entertain the
views referred to.
1T must be evident to all that so
long as anything remains to be ex-
amined and considered the commits
sioners are not in a position to form
an opinion respecting the merits of the
controversy. AS a matter of fact,
neither the commission nor the indi-
vidual commissioners are as yet in
possession of all the evidence. The
papers presented by Venezuela are but
a part of what has been promised.
The blue book of the British govern
ment, while remarkably full and de-
'o'icu' uoeS Hol HcluQe all the dOcu-
ments which may be adduced in sup
port of its contentious The commits
sion has not and will not limit itself

governments may present; it has been
engaged upon independent lines of in
curry and will continue to follow those
lines until all its sources of informa-
ton have been exhausted. Then. and
not until then, will it be in a position
TO form any opinion or to make any
report"

On che Reorganization of the North
ern Pacific Company.
NEW YORK, March 21.-The Com
mercial and Financial Chronicle, speak
ing of the Northern Pacific reorganiza-
ton, says, under authority of Chairman
Adams of the reorganization commit
tee:
While the carrying out of the pro-
posed reorganization will mean much
to the security holders of the Northern
Pacific it will mean hardly less to the
communities which the system serves
1t may be taken for granted that local
sentiment will be favorable to the re-
organized company, since the road is
to be maintained as a separate system
BY improving the property, it will be
placed in better position to meet the
requirements of the various sections
traversed by the road. Furthermore.
the reorganizers propose to spend large
amounts Immediately for such i'm
provements, and this will have marked
effect in stimulating trade in the north
west. Finally, it is the intention to
pursue vigorous policy in the devel-
opment of the territory tributary to
the road by promoting settlements on
the company's extensive land grant,

BILLY CARTOONS SCHEME
SHY Claims He VIII HniId On {" Salt
Lake

SAN FRANCISCO, March 21.-Less
than thirty days remain to redeem the
Nevada Southern from receivers and
sheriffs' sales which were made last
October for the sum of $3O6, POS. Will
lam H. Carlson, of San Diego, since
the receivers sale, bought the right to
redeem the road and he was in the
city today looking up records. He says
that there is plenty of capital behind
him to build the road to Salt Lake.
The claim is made on the other hand
that the deed to Carlson is defective,
it having been signed only by the pres
ident of the road, L F. Blake, and not
in conjunction with the secretary. 1t
is further stated that the Nevada
Southern, as a corporation. never au-
thorized Blake to transfer the property
to Carlson. It is understood that the
purchasers of the California & Eastern
railroad are in the field and will be-
gin active construction of a road to
Salt Lake as soon as the time of re-
demption expires in case Carlson is
unable to redeem the Nevada Southern.

THE VANDERBILT PARTY.
Much Interest Aroused Over the
Western Trip.

SAN FRANCISCO. March &c. F.
Croker of the Southern Pacific, has re-
ceived telegram from Chauncey NJ
Depew stating that Mr.. Vanderbilt and
he are coming to California. They will
be in New Orleans on Monday and will
start Immediately for San Francisco.
Colonel Crocker has arranged to meet
them at Los Angeles.
The visit of Depew and Vanderbilt to
California, together with the fact that
]. B. butcher one of the directors of
the New York Central and Daniel Nc
Coy, one of the officers of that road,
are already here, has caused considerable
gossip as to whether or not the trip is
one of business or pleasure.
The visit of Vanderbilt and Depew is
regarded as tending to confirm the stor-
les that hey intended to levy the Cen
trail and Union Pacific roads in case the
government should foreclose. Colonel
Crocker says that so far as he knows,
Vanderbilt and Depew are simply on
pleasure bent. They will spend "a few days
in Southern California and will return
east over the Central and Southern Pa
cific roads

NORTHERN PACIFIC.
Receiver BurIeigh's Administration
satisfactory to the Courts.

PORTLAND. Ore, March 21.-When
several weeks ago, United States Judges
Gilbert and Hannaford denied an appli-
cation made on the strength of a quasi
decision by four judges of the supreme
court to remove Receiver Burleigh of
the Northern Pacific railroad and to give
the eastern receivers control of the whole
line. it was stated that Judge Fields
could come out here, and sitting in court
with them. remove Mr.. Burleigh and ap-
point the eastern receivers.
1t is learned on good authority that
an application was not long since made
to Judge Field to exercise his authority
and to remove Mr.. Burleigh and to put
the whole line of the Northern Pacific
into the hands of the eastern receivers,
and that he declined to do SO, intimating
that the present arrangement was Fatis-

Claims of Heirs of Ex-Gov. Durkee.

WASHINGTON, March 21.-Leonard
c. Blaisdell, of Indianapolis, was before
the senate committee on Pacific roads
and made a plea for the protection of
the interests in the first mortgage bonds
OF the Pacific roads, which he claims he
holds as the representative of the heirs
of the late Charles Durkee who was gov
ernor of Utah, when these roads were
IN their infancy. There are probabilities
that a subcommittee of the senate COM
mittee on Pacific roads will be appointed
TO confer with the house committee in an
effort to agree upon a measure which
will be acceptable to both roads. The
movements of the Union Pacific reorgani-
cation have recently indicated their will
ingness to accept substantially the Frye
Pacific railway debt to run seventy-five
years at per cent. with regular annual
payments,

Hon. Fremont Cole, ex-speaker of
the house of representatives of New
York, was an interested spectator for
a few minutes in the gallery of the
house yesterday while the Critchlow
railroad bill was under discussion.
The veteran legislator, who has been
the victor in many a well-fought po-
litical as well as legislative battle with
the famous Bald Eagle of West
chester" and others of like promi-
hence in his state. looked on during
the numerous passages at arms be-
tween the gentlemen, with an eager
ness which suggested that he would
like to get inside of the bar and take
a hand himself.
MI. Cole has been in the state for
week or more, looking after the in
veStmentS of some of his New York
clients in this section, and, as he said.
dropped into the house from force of
habit. Mr.. Cole is an ardent Mckinley
man, and while chatting with a Her
aid reporter, who CHANGED to have the
pleasure of his acquaintance, spoke
freely of Ohio's Little Napoleon" and
his chances
Mckinley" said he. lis more COM
pletely the embodiment of the average
Republicans ideal than any other
American who might be named. His
name more nearly than any other is
the synonym of Republicanism.
During the three years that have
just passed the name of Mckinley has
stood for prosperity and commercial
and financial hope, not only in the
mind of every Republican, but in the
minds of men of all shades of political
belief
Governor Morton is, of course, a
splendid man, as are also Reed and AL
lison; but I believe if it could be put
to a test vote, fully IS per cent of the
Republicans of the country would be
found to be first choice for Mckinley.
Why even in the state of New York
l believe majority of the Republican
voters prefer him at heart
Asked as to his impressions of the
new state, he said:
II believe you have the making here
of one of the greatest commemorative
in the country. I have read much
about Utah, and I supposed in a gen.
eral way ] was familiar with it's pos
sibilities, but [ am amazed at the
grand combination of mineral and ag
ricultural resources that you evidently
possess. 1t only needs a little immi-
grafton and little more knowledge
of what Utah really is, to put you well
up among the leading states. But
your mining boom, just inaugurated
and sure to be a success, will do that;
and your climate is simply unmatch
able | was for some time on the Pa
cific coast and was inclined to believe
that was the finest climate in the
world; but I am convinced yours is
even superior to that
Mr. Cole said he was taking no ac-
tive part in politics, and that his visit
here was simply combination of bust
ness and pleasure. He left last even
ing for Denver.

Brilliant Illumination

Last evening the attention of a re.
porter was attracted to the brilliant
illumination of NJ. F. Bahnsen's
handsome drug store. corner Twen-
tieth and Fourth avenue. Looking
at the windows he was struck BY the
steadiness of the light, the novelty
of the fixtures and their elegant de-
sign. Going into the store he found
that beautiful soft light was being
distributed evenly over the room by
lights having the appearance of ele.
CANT gas fittings. The proprietor
kindly explained that it was the new
method of burning ordinary kerosene
oil. showing how superior it was to
gas or electricity in brilliancy and
steadiness. The new light is oper-
ated exactly as gas. simply requiring
the turning of a thumb screw In rails
ing or lowering the flame, or extin-
gushing it as we'll.
The light is being introduced here
by the Stockham Manufacturing
company of Chicago, and we are in.
formed that more than 100000 OF
these lights are in use in that CITY
and further east. The expense oil
running it is about one-fourth the
cost of gas or electricity.
