TENSION RELAXED
BY the Prospective Settlement of the Ven
cZuelan Boundary Dispute.

Washington, Jan. 23.-The mails from
British Guiana at hand indicate that one
effect of the. prospective arrangement of
the boundary difficulty with Venezuela
has had the effect of removing the tension
which prevailed there and permit the
colonial officials to remove the precar-
lions taken to prevent the forcible occupa-
ton by Venezuela of the territory claimed.
Heretofore an armed force of police has
been maintained at Uruan, but it is ar
gued that when the term of the present
force there shall have expired an indie
pendent force of Indians will be substi-
tuted for service at the station. Such
force will, it is said, maintain the British
title none the less effectively than the
police force which has been maintained
there for so long. .y s,,.
1t is announced that the Venezuelan
government has paid over the indemnity
demanded in settlement Of the Uruan in
cident, when certain of the British colon
ial police station at that point were ar
rested by Venezuelan guards, thus caus-
ing some heated feeling for time, and
even threatening the consummation OF the
whole boundary dispute by arbitration.
The money paid over has been allotted as
follows: ~
To Inspectors Barnes and Baker. who
were the principal victims, 500 pounds
each, and to the police constables compos-
ing the garrison, 100 pounds each.
The terms of the treaty arranged be-
tween the United States and Great Brit
ain, for the settlement of the boundary
dispute are regarded in the colony of
Guiana MS on the whole very favorable
for Great Britain. and it is confidently ex-
pected that the result of the arbitration
investigation will be to confirm the British
claims in every material particular. The
colonists have been warned to prepare
themselves for possible departure from
the Shomburgk line in the upper basin Of
the Cuyuni, but it is said there is no fear
of their retaining the whole of the north
west district, which, after all, is the most
important territory in dispute.

LII IN WASHINGTON.
Ex-Queen of Hawaii Unexpectedly Shows
Up In the National Capital

Washington, Jan, % Liliuokaleni,
Hawaifs eX-queen, arrived here today
rather unexpectedly Her intention to
visit Washington at this time had not
been anticipated. and her entry was as
simple as any ones could be. Accom-
panied by Miss Ka Naholelena and Mr..
JOS Hclelulie of Honolulu and Mr.. ]. n.
Palmer of Boston, the queen was driven
direct to the hotel Shoreham. Rather
fatigued by her trip she retired and ~
fused herself to all callers.
Concerning her visit, Mr.. Palmer said.
"The queen is travelling in her capacity
as 4 private lady, and | have no doubt
that she will follow the same rule here
that she did in Boston in declining any
official attentions"
That the eX-qucen wants and expects to
see President Cleveland during her stay
here is almost a certainty. This much
was admitted today by one who enjoys
her confidence. Capt. Palmer, her agent
and spokesman, however, refused to com
nit himself as to her plans. He reitcr
ated tonight that he did not know whether
the queen wanted to have an interview
with the president.
There has" he said. been no com
munication OF any kind looking to an in
terview with the president. The length
of the queens stay here is indefinite. She
is likely to go from here to Philadelphia
and after visiting several other cities will
start for home. Her plan is to get back
TO Hawaii in the spring.

Matters of Interest to savannah and
Elsewhere

Elsewhere.
The North Carolina legislature is still
trying to decide whether to repudiate it's
contract with the Southern by which that
road pays an annual rental of S2S0,000 for
the North Carolina railroad. The Sea-
board AIR Line, always ready for a go at
the Southern, has come forward and Of
fered 100000. President Hoffman, of the
Seaboard. wants the road very much, but
President Spencer of the Southern, also
wants it, They are taking different
courses to gain their wishes, however. Mr.
Spencer is sticking to his contract, and
says the legislature must let him have the
road at the figure named. Mr.. Hoffman
simply says give us the road and we will
raise the Southerns bid by $4,000 a year.
Mr.. Hoffman alleges that his road was
not given a fair show to bid when the
Southern secured the contract. Taking
this statement of Mr.. Hoffman's as his
cue, Gov. Matthews sent a special mes
sage to the legislature stating that the
contract, if Mr.. Hoffman's allegations
were true. should be revoked. The North
Carolina is now a section of the Southern
Its going into the hands of the Seaboard
Air Line would hit the Southern hard, as
its line would be cut right in two by some
thing more than 200 miles of road going
into the control of rival company. The
Seaboard could not keep the Southern's
trains off of the North Carolina, but it
could and would charge the latter toll on
every thing passing over the road. An
be that it could not build a parallel line
with the North Carolina, as the laws of
the state forbid The outcome of the Leg
islature's consideration is anxiously look
ed for.
The Charleston and Western Carolina
has purchased property on the Savannah
river front at Augusta for the erection of
a new freight depot and shops. The road
has also purchased new rolling stock, con-
sisting of - locomotives, so fiat cars, IS
coaches and $50 box cars.
Vice President st. John of the Seaboard
Air Line has filed complaint against the
Central and the Georgia Southern and
Florida with the interstate commerce COM
mission for the alleged refusal of those
roads to make a rate with his own. He
has also filed complaints against the
Louisville and Nashville, the Atlanta and
West Point and the Western of Alabama
for not hauling a through car for the
Seaboard between Atlanta and New Or
leans.

AFTER THE sCALPERs.
The Railroads Pushing the Anti
Ticket brokerage Bill.

A passenger official stated yesterday
that he had received private advices from
Washington to the effect that the Senate
committee on interstate commerce would
submit the anti-ticket scalping bill to that
body tomorrow. Washington dispatches
a few days ago, stated that the measure
had failed to find consideration before the
committee, and that c5o ili en- ~ II
sion. At the time disbelief was expressed
in this, and the railroads said they had
received advices to the effect that the Dill
would be brought up.
Both sides, the railroads and the ticket
brokers, have representatives at Wasn-
ington, and the bill will bring on a hot
fight. One side is endeavoring to secure
a hearing for the bill, the other to prevent
it, The measure has its friends and its
enemies in the Senate, and the railroad
men fear that, if il comes up, those op-
posed to it will take up so much time IN
flibustering that it cannot be acted on at
this session.
passage of the bill. A part from the reve-
nue. cut off from their roads by the tick
ct brokers, they are put to additional
loss by the inability to put on certain
rates which nothing but the brokerage pre-
vents They claim, TOO, ana the claim IS
borne out by the acquiescence OF business
men, that their roads would be IN posi-
cessions. These would be such,
they claim, as would counter
balance the advantages tnaI are
denied al present from the purchase of
cut-rate tickets. Rates would be given to
winter tourists to Savannah, 1t is admit
ted. if the brokerage in tickets were abol-
ished.
The ticket scalpers, on the other hand,
do not believe that the public would gain
as much through the railroads additional
concessions as il does by its patronage of
their business. Their grounds for the con-
tinuance of the scaiping business, how
ever, meets with a pretty hard blow when
the commercial bureaus array themselves
on the railroads side, and pronounce unre-
serVedly for the suppression of scalping.
Ticket brokerage is not under the juris-
diction alone of the national
body. 1t can be suppressed in any state
by legislative action. A railroad official
stated his belief last night that the next
session of the Georgia legislature would
overthrow the scalpers. He was asked
what was to be done in the way of bring
ing the bill before the assembly, and re-
pied that Il was not to be brought by the
railroads influence. This Will put the
matter in the hands of some commercial
body, II the official is correct in his idea,
and the bill is brought But they do not
desire state so much as interstate legis-
lation, against the business. or course
the mere passage OF Georgia bill for It's
suppression here would not be what the
big lines would need. With such broken
up territory, one part allowing, the other
preventing, scalping, It would be very diff
fcult to figure rates and divisions for
connecting lines.

THE SOUTHERN MUTUAL FIGHT.
MIR. O'Byrne One of the stOcI1h olders'
Proxy Committee.

Mr. M. A. OByrne, who repre-
scented the Savannah stockholders at a
meeting Of stockholders of the Southern
Mutual and Building Association in At
lanta Saturday, returned yesterday. Mr..
O'Byrne was chairman of the meeting, and
was appointed one of the committee repre-
senting the stockholders to solicit proxies
for the meeting of the association. which
will be held In Atlanta Thursday, Feb 25.
This is in opposition to the request for
proxies sent out by President Hale, against
whom charges of mismanagement have
been made.
The meeting Feb. % will practically de-
eide whether or not a receiver shall be
appointed for the association. Judge Can
der OF the superior court of Atlanta, to
Whom appncauon for the appointment of
a receiver, has been made, having deferred
the hearing of the application until Feb.
n: There are number of stockholders
OF the southern Mutual in Savannah who
are very much interested in the straight
enlng of the tangie in which the affairs of
the ASSOCIATION appear to be involved.
Mr.. o. Byrne urged at the hearing before
Judge Gambler Saturday that the books
and accounts of the association be exam
lned by an expert instead of by any of the
parties connected with the associa tion and
that report of the condition of its affairs
be made to the receiver in time for him to
allow its use by the stockholders meeting
Oli Nilt 4olA. lie GldlDn was recognized DY
Judge Gambler and an order was passed
directing the employment of an expert who
is entirely free from all connections with
the former management and officials of
the association, and who is wholly impair
tial and disinterested in the case.
Mr.. O'Byrne said that his idea is to get
at the exact status of the associations af-
tairs and the only way to do it is by an
impartial investigation by parties who
have had nothing to do with the associa-
tons former management.
