revival of public opinion in support Of
Lord Kitchener as commander in chief

PREPARING FOR WAR.
Colombia and Venezuela Are Buying
Arms for q Conflict.
STEAMER is SECURED
AGENTS for the Two Countries In the
United States Are Seeking War.
ships and Merchant. Vessels
Suitable for q Fight.

New York, Dec. 21-It Is believed
! here that war is about to be declared
! between the United States Of Colombia
and the republic of Venezuela, and final
preparations and plans for the conflict
are being made by the agents OF the
| two countries at present in the United
States Warships and merchant ves-
sells suitable for auxiliary cruisers or
| transports are being eagerly sought.
General Diego de Castro Of Barran-
quilla, Colombia. who came here in
November, has selected the steamship
Catnnia, which was a United States
army transport during the war with
Spain, as suitable to be used against
Venezuela.
There is much mystery about the Ca
tania, which is owned by the Tweedy
Trading company. She arrived here
from Boston on Sept. 20 and has been
held in this port ever since. Until
week ago the Catania was tied up at
the American docks on Staten Island
and she is now at the foot Of Fifty
sixth street. South Brooklyn. Boweyng
& Co., agents for the Tweedy Trading
company, assert that the Catania is not
to become a tllibusterer. but must be
bought outright.
Senior Lamadrir, now In New Or
leans. is reported to have brought with
him from Colombia 100000 and
General Je Castro's funds are said to
aggregate s10O0,OO0.
The Catania changed from tho Brit
ish to the American flag upon becom-
ing an army transport. At the close OF
hostilities the Catania returned to the
merchant service.

Washington, Dec. 21.-The objection
Of w. T. Sampson to that part Of Ad-
miral Dewey's report of the Schley
court OF inquiry, in which he says Ad-
miral Schley was in command at the
battle off Santiago and entitled to
credit for the victory. has been filed
with Secretary Long. The document
was brought to the navy department
by E. S. Theall, of the counsel for Ad-
miral Sampson, and handed to the sec
rotary. The points made are. first,
Commodore Schley was not in COM
mand at the battle; second, the presi-
dent of the United States and the navy
department had decided Admiral
Sampson was in command and Commo-
dore Schley second in command; third,
the question as to who commanded at
Santiago was not referred to the court
for consideration and the evidence
bearing on that point was excluded.

Chesterfield Almost ministerial reck-

be wholly understandable" He says

DR.. Leyds declares that Morgendaal,
who was logged. courtmartialed and
shot, was not a peace envoy, but
entered Boer camp in order to induce

A delegation of northwestern Hi

house commission. In the party were
Senators Townsend and Payne and
Representative Rankin, Craig, An
drews, Cole, johnson, of Rock Island !;
johnson, of Fulton; Samuelson, Mil
Ter, of Stark, Onion and Scrogin. The
governor, however, could give the
delegation no satisfaction. He was
more than anxious, he said, to have
Mr.. Mckinney accept a place in his
administration, and said he could
have his pick of the places still at the
disposal of the governor. These in
clude the SUPPLEMENTARY of the Pom
tiac reformatory, place on the board
of that institution, the wardenship of
the Joliet penitentiary, the grain in
spectorship and the pure food COM
missionership. But he could not put
him on the railroad and warehouse
commission. The jobs of this kind
were all spoken for.

TIE BEST SOLDIER IN THE WORLD

Col. Arthur Hamilton Lee of the
British army, recently startled mill
tary Europe by the statement that
American soldiers were superior to
any in the world. He declared the
American troops, while they appear
to have less discipline, are obedient in
action, have a better physique, are
more intelligent and are better fight
ers than any soldiers in the world.
Col. Lee was with the United States
army in the war with Spain and was
also the military attache of the Brit
ish embassy in Washington. He
therefore speaks from the standpoint
of personal observation. This British
officer says the American soldier is the
superior of European fighters because
of his surroundings. His superiors
are not chosen because of wealth or
high social position, but, like the
common soldier. come from the plain
people. The tribute from the British
officer is Sustained, not only by the
proves which the American soldier
has achieved in recent years, but also
by the testimony of other disinterested
critics on both sides of the water.
Proud as we all are of the American
soldier, it is nevertheless gratifying to
hear his praises sung by those to
whom the British soldier has hereto
fore been the paragon of excellence, if
not the type of excellence.

In st. Louis county, Mo-, the edi-

the editor of a rival publication to
fight duel with rapiers, razors,
swords or fists. Richelieu said, or
Bulwer made him say, that ''in the
hands of men entirely great the pen
is mightier than the sword" Accept
ing this as true, the inference that the
Dubuque Telegraph draws is that the
