The Globe-republican., 1899-10-26

Caracas, Venezuela, Oct. 23.-The
crisis is virtually over. General An
drade, the president, has accepted the
conditions proposed by the insurgent
commander, General Cipriano Castro,

volving on the vice president. Gen
eral Castro will enter Caracas peace,
fully thus avoiding bloodshed and a
dictatorship.
The final conference between General
Castro and Senior Matos, the special
envoy of General Andrade was held
yesterday. General Castro proposes
that a popular convention should be
assembled twenty days for the election
of a new president and the adoption OF
a new constitution. under which ar
rangement he would succeed to the
presidency.
The general feeling here is that way
is open for the dignified withdrawal of
General Andrade.

New York, Oct, 23.-Mr. Iselin, OF
the Yacht Columbia said to an AssOcia-
ted Press reporter: ''Of course am de-
lighted at the outcome of today's race,
for it demonstrated thoroughly that in
a strong breeze the Columbia is more
than a match for the Shamrock. / am
glad we had SO much wind, for it gave
us an opportunity to dispel the illu-
weather boat. Having sailed on the
Columbia all season have been able
to test her in all kinds of weather, and
her work shows that my confidence in
her ability to successfully defend tho
Americas cup was not misplaced"

piled to the three insurgent officers who
entered Angeles with request made
through General Macarthur for per
mission for a Filipino commission.
headed by Filipino major general,
to visit General Otis in order to discuss
peace terms and arrange for the deliv-
cry of more American prisoners, that
the desired interview cannot be granted
because the suggested propositions OF
the Filipinos are vague, indefinite and
unnilitary, and because the Americans
must continue to decline to receive any
representative of the sO-called Filipino
government.

Wichita Street Fair.

Wichita, Oct. 23.-The Wichita street
fair of last week was success from
start to finish. First-the weather
was ''made to order" No one could
find fault with it except that the sum-
mer heat of the last three days of the
week was annoying to some. The
crowd was great and it represented
many counties of Kansas and Oklaho-
ma, with a good representation from
the Indian territory. The fair proper
was a magnificent exhibit, and the
several parades were grand and were
fully appreciated by the immense
crowds. OF course the big fun was on
carnival night. The midway waS-the
midway; nuisance at any fair; but
then it helped to draw.

bering 764 men and fOrty-six officers,

Company F, of Oskaloosa, Ia, who
died at Nagssaki of dysentery.

as to her fate. In Iowa great rejoicing
is reported.

Manila, Oct. 21.-General Otis has
received messages purporting to como
from the insurgent general, Pho Del
Pillar, offering to sell out his army and
to deliver Aguinaldo into the hands of
the Americans. Although he is not
satisfied that this offer is authentic, it
is not intrinsically improbable. The pol
icy of General Otis is firmly set against
buying any surrenders.
Pho Del Pillar offers for the sum of
$4,000 to refrain from attacking Ma
Mia with his army: for the sum of
S250,OO0 he offers to surrender his
army after a sham battle, besides fir;
ing into the air, and for the sum of
100000 he says he will procure the
overthrow of the instruction and the
capture of Aguinaldo, Palermo and the
other leaders. In the course of the
communication he refers to Aguinaldo
in contemptuous terms, indicating that
strained relations exist between them

NEW LAW UNCONSTITUTIONAL
Limiting Telegraph Message Rate
to Fifteen Cents.
VIOLATES 14TH AMENDMENT.

Seneca. Kan. Oct. 24.-The first de-
cision handed down in the state on the
constitutionality of the acts of the spe-
cial session of the Kansas legislature re-
quiring telegraph companies to send
messages at a rate not exceeding Is
cents for ten words was handed down
by Judge w. /. Stuart of this district.
The evidence on the trial showed that
at the present rates for telegraph mes
sages the Postal Telegraph Cable Com
pany was losing money in Kansas on
domestic business as distinguished from
interstate business. Under this evil
dence the court made the following
conclusions of law:
1.-The defendant was not bound to re-
ceive and transmit the message men
toned in plaintiffs bill of particulars
for Is cents; the defendant is therefore
entitled to Judgment The action of
the special session of the legislature of
Kansas of 1898, in their application to
the facts of this case are in violation of
section / of the fourteenth article of
amendment to the constitution of the
United States, in that it deprives the
defendant of its property without due
process of law and denies to the defend
ant the equal protection of the laws,
in this, that the maximum rate that the
defendant is thereby permitted to de-
mand and receive for the performance
of the service therein mentioned will
not admit of the defendant earning
such compensation for the service as
under all the circumstances is just to it
and the public. Therefore, said sec
ton as applied to the facts of this case
is void and the defendant is entitled to
judgment in this action"

Selection Made on Merit.

Washington, Oct. 24-The selection
Of General Funston was made on merit
after Secretary Root had submitted to
the President list of officers with
their record of service. This list had
been carefully gone over and the es-
sential features of recent service in the
field noted.
The President was evidently i'm
pressed with the official chronicle OF
General Funston's work in the Phil ip-
pines, which follows closely the press
dispatches of his gallant deeds during
General MacArthur's first advance to
the north, and his name was speedily
selected from the list.

Is thought, started from the electric

Ammunition for Tr.nsv..l.

Port Said, Oct. 19.-The German
steamer Kaiser, from Hamburg, is dis
cmbarking at the entrance of the Suez
canal 1000 pieces of ammunition con.
signed to the Transvaal. This step is
taken in order to avoid seizure in the
Red sea by British cruisers. The am.
munition will probably be re-embsrked
for Hamburg on board the steamer
Herzog, which is shortly expected
here. The Kaiser was Swallowed by
the British second-class cruiser Thetis

Washington, Oct. 24.-Father w. l..
McKinnon, chaplain of the First Cali
fornia volunteers, who was with his
regiment sixteen months in the Philip
pines, called at the White house and
had talk with the President. Father
McKinnon said the stories attributing
the looting of churches to American
soldiers were entirely unfounded.
''It is true" said he, ''that great
many churches have been looted and
stripped, but this has been the work OF
Cinnamon in nearly every case. The
looting has usually been done between
the evacuation of town by the rebels
and the entry of the American forces.
