Washington, Jan. 3.-The state de-
partment yesterday received from Am
bassador Choate at London statement
of the facts he had developed in con-
nection with the seizure by a British
warships of American goods on three
merchant vessls, the Beatrice, the
Mashona and the Maria. The goods
comprised not only -four but miscel-
laneous articles of common trade.
They were shipped for Lourenzo Mar
Ques in British and German ships but
our officials contend that they are not
subject to seizure. AS soon as
Choate's statement came to hand in
struction was cabled to him to inform
the British government that we could
not admit the right of seizure in these
cases. This preliminary step is usual
ly taken in such negotiations. Next in
order will be the report from our con-
sular representative at LourenZo Mar
ques respecting the present condition
of seized or detained goods and the
damage sustained. The instructions
to Choate was not a demand for the re-
lease of the goods, nor yet for indemni-
+ ty, but rather a precautionary notice
to the British government to save all OF
our rights in the case.
The monthly statement of the public
debt shows that at the close of business
Dec 80, the debt less cash in the treas
ury amounted to $1,134, 100000, a de

Chicago, Jan. 3.-After an exciting
and grotesque struggle stretching over
several miles of elevated railway track,
the police last evening took entire pos
session of the line of the new North
western elevated railway in this city.
The police acted under orders of Com
missioner of Public Works Lawrence
e. Mccain. Last night besides stop
ping the work in progress at various
points of the structure, the police
erected a barrier at the junction of the
Northwestern elevated tracks with
those of the Union Loop company at
Fifth avenue and Lake street and the
regular crew of one train is under ar
rest. The arrests are a result of the
refusal of the railway officials to COM
ply with the orders from Commissioner
Mccain to cease train running, Nc
Gam claiming the structure was un.
safe in it's present state and that it did
not meet the requirements of the ord
nance that it be completed for opera
ton by Jan. 1, on penalty of 100000.
A part of the franchise of the North
western elevated includes tracks on
Fifth avenue used by the Union Loop
company which recently repudiated it's
compensation agreement with the city
and it may be tied up also.
