for him on the first ballot for United

ATTEMPTED TRAIN WRECklNG.
Obstruction Placed on the Track OF the
Chicago and Northwestern Road.


GAINESVILLE, Wis, Jan. ia desperate
attempt to wreck the Chicago-St. Paul
through limited express on the Chica-
go and Northwestern road was made at
Tiffany, a small station ten miles south
of this city, and detectives are now at
work on the case. A piece of rail five
feet long was wedged in between the
main track and a switch. The limited
express runs through Tiffany at the
speed of sixty miles an hour, but luck
ily the fiangs on the wheel touched the
obstruction so lightly as to turn the
rail over. Had the train struck the OBJ
struction squarely it would have been
hurled down an embankment on one
side, or plunged into a high bank on
the other. The train carries hundreds
of passengers every night and had the
attempt at wrecking succeeded terrible
loss of life would have ensued.
If robbery was the object the spot was
well chosen, as no news of the accident
would have been received for some
hours. A switchman found the OBJ
struction after the train had passed.

Washington. Jan. 12.-The last step.
aside from the ratif, - IN of the treaty
by the congress of Venezuela. neces-
sary to give effect to the Venezuelan
arbitration agreement between the
United States and Great Britain has
been completed by the formal assent
Of King Oscar OF Sweden to the clause
of the arbitration convention which
makes him the final arbitrator in case
the other members of the tribunal are
unable to agree.
Objections Not Potent.
The congress of Venezuela meets in
February. and while there has been
some objections raised in Venezuela to
lhe arrangement for a settlement of the
long standing boundary dispute, it is
understood that these objections are
tion of the agreement in the face of its
strong Endorsement by President Cres-
pc and the members of his cabinet. The
final settlement Of this dispute which
at one time threatened seriously to in
terrupt the amicable relations between
the United States and Great Britain
will be hailed with satisfaction, both in
this country and in Great Britain. The
Intervention of the United States to ad-
just the dispute has had one result not
foreseen nor contemplated at the time
viz, the drawing closer together of the
two great representatives of the Eng
lish speaking races.

RICH STRIKE At NELSON.
Big Free Gold Ledge ON the Granite
Under Bond Already.

NELSON. Il. C.. July Is.-Another rich
strike, mere important than that Of two
or three weeks ago. has been made on the
Granite claim near Forty-niile creek.
Yesterday. while Messrs. Swedberg ard
Johnson were ground sIuicing along the
projected line OF the ledge. and l0i feet
from the original strike, they succeeded
n uncovering four feet OF deeomposed ore
that Is fun of free gold. This IS the same
width that they originally found, and
establishes beyond all doubt that the
ledge Is the greatest gold find yet re-
ported In kootenay The assay Of the
first find gave return OF s5iI IN gold, and
the new strike shows much richer ore.
Upon The strength of the first find, A.
Jensen, Of this city. secured a sixty-days
option for $4,000, and the last find has
had the effect Of sending him of in haste
TO the East 10 make sure that the money
for the mine is forthcoming on the day
specified The Granite is an extension OF
the White. one OF the famous Poorman
group, and the ledge was first found on
the Granite within a few feet of the
White line. Further In q tunnel was run
To cross-cut ii, but failed. and yesterday
the sIuicing process disclosed the ledge
at the bottom of the tunnel dump. The
ore is wholly free milling. and owing TO
its extreme soEtness the cost of mining
is comparatively slight. Ordinarily this
decomposed matter. SO rich In gold. does
not last long. but In the White claim a
shaft has been sunk to considerable
distance and still they are not through il.
