Paris, March 12.--The following semi
official announcement was made this after
noon: "The powers, while united in prin
ciple, have not yet been able to reach g
solution of the Cretan question. Pro
posals and objections are being ex
changed hourly. The program drawn vi
by the admiras now in Cretan waters i
as follows:
"First-A blockade of the island o
Crete.
"Seoond-A blockade of Piraeus anf
some other of the Greek ports.
"Third-T he seizure by detachment oi
the fleet, and of all telegraph offices al
Syra.
"Fourth-Any Greek warships encoun-
tered are to be taken to the island Of Milo
and kept there.
"Fifth-Any Greek warships firing on
any foreign warships are to be sunk and
the act to be considered casus belli.
"Sixth--Any Greek torpedo boat near.
ing foreign warships to be fired at.
"Seventh-As the blockade of Greece
will require all the crews of foreign war
ships, each power is to send to Crete a
battalion of infantry of not less than 600
men in number"
Each foreign admiral telegraphed a
copy of these proposals to his govern
ment. Germany Immediately telegraphed
the powers that she would accept the
proposals down to the seventh, and would
accept the seventh in prluciple, but could
not do so in fact for the reason that she
had no battalion available.
Austria wired that she would accept the
proposals, but as Emperor Francis Jo-
seph was at Cape MattiD, she must have
time to consult with his majesty. Italy
telegraphed acceptance, but added that
the proposals must be submitted to her
cabinet council.
Russia, Great Britain and France were
silent for time. Then Great Britain
proposed that gendarmerie be organ
ized in Crete by utilizing the Greek
troops, not using the Greek flag, and not
using Greek officers in this connection.
Russia evidently answered, as the powers
presented their ultimatum to Greece, and
Greece replied by Offering to withdraw
the fleet. The answer was conciliatory
and partly satisfactory. Russia proposed
further measure not demanding the
withdrawal of Greek troops. France
seconded the reply of Russia. A general
agreement was suggested that the powers
should each advance a certain sum for
paying the gendarmerie and the expense
of organizing an autonomous govern
ment for Crete. Germany declared that
she was not willing to spend farthing
for this purpose.
France this afternoon proposed to the
British foreign Office that the powers pro-
ceed Immediately to organize the gen.
darmerie. Great Britain points out that
members of the previous Cretan gen.
darmerie, ran away and mutinied, ana
that Greek troops are best available for
this purpose. Conseq uently this propo-
sal will probably be modus vivedendi,
by which the situation will be solved, as
there is no doubt but that the Greeks will
accept it,

i've oody that in legislating for the peo
pie, did not also legislate for the good of
every member of that body, such conten-
tion was absurd and not worthy of much
discussion. He favored the measure be-
cause he knew there was absolute races-
sity for it and because he knew there was
no steal in it, he had pinned the foreman
of the Albuquerque Democrat down on
the proposition and the latter acknow-
lodged to him, that while the work might
be done cheaper. that there was no steal
in it and that the word or term steal
in connection with the printing could not
be used honestly, because there was no
steal in it. This he received from a man
competent to jndge and of different
political faith from the public printer
He himself was not of the same political
faith of the public printer, and the peo.
pie knew we'll that he foughtfor his party
principles and how he fought for them,
but that had nothing to do with the case
at issue. Here YVES measure demanded
by vast ajority of the people and alb
solutely necessary, he would vote for it,
if his vote was needed to carry it and take
the consequences, be they what they may,
hereafter. He feared them not. And he
then rounded out his speech gracefully
with few more convincing remarks and
the debate closed.

New Mexico, but what is now Conejos
county, Colorado, April 26, 1858. He was
educated in private schools OF his native
county and after school years engaged in
sheep and cattle raising, and farming.
In 1884 he took up his residence at
Lum berton, Rio Arriba county, and
opened store for general merchandise.
This business since then has grown to
very large proportions, and it isone of
the most extensive mercantile ustablsh-
ments in northern New Mexico today.

in cattle growing and sheep raising,
owning extensive tracts of land in south
ern Colorado, among these the fine estate

held no official position, giving his time
to his business affairs. During the 1896
cam paign, however, he consented to be-
come the Republican candidate for the
council from his district, and in Novem-
ber was elected. AS a member of the
present legislative assembly he has de-
voted his energies to the business before
the council, has watched legislation close
ly and by his vote done much for the in
terests of the territory at large. His rec
ord as legislator is vindicaton of the
Judgment of the voters in the counties he
represents; he has proven himself a most
valuable man, always voting for meas
ures of economy, progressive in his ideas
and actions and absolutely true to the
best interests of the entire territory. He
is quiet and determined, but influential
and listened to with respect. He makes
his vote connt on every occasion. He is
indeed strong man and we'll fitted for
any poeision in the gift of the people of
New Mexico.
In January, 1892, he was married to
Miss Eduvigen Saazar, at Park View; and
he is now the father of two children and
the head of a very happy home.

TOBACCO CUSTOMS RECEIPTS.
Tnmpn's Custom House Does a Coca
Years business.

Tampa, Fla, July 4.-The fiscal year
in the custom house has just closed. The
figures of the earnings of the custom
house far exceed the expectations of the
business men here. for it was thought
that with the famous Weyler edict the
receipts would be seriously reduced. Ac-
cording to the books, the receipts from
July /, 1885, to June 80 1897, were SAP
2i9S7 duties on tobacco alone and So
74l.42 receipts from other sources, making
a total of $74S, 99l.29. The receipts for the
year preceding this were $7S4.O32.O2, and
for the year preceding that s525. S64S4.
These three years cover a very import
ant period in the history of tobacco. Dur
ing the first the Cuban war started dur
ing the second Weyler issued his famous
edict prohibiting the expectation of to-
bacco from the island, and during the
third and quite recently the edlct has
been in some cases removed. The FIRST
year was not affected In a business way

crease in the business here, but the no.
