Washington, Dec. 2T.-The gathering

French and other foreign warships are
directing attention to the imminence of
the naval demonstrations Germany is
about to make against Venezuela Thus

purpose in the move. official communi-
cation to the United States being con-
fined toinquiry as to the attitude of this
government on the question of the
demonstration in view OF the purpose
on the part os Germany not to acquire
any permanent foothold in Venezuela
The answer of this government was
entirely satisfactory to the German
authorities, who since have proceeded
with the execution of their plans for
coercing Venezuela. 1t is said to be
probab bic that the first move by Ger

blockade of Venezuelan ports so as to
prevent the Introduction of food prod
ucts into Venezuela and thus starve
the besieged into submission. Venezu-
ella is entirely dependent on the outside
world for its supply Of corn. which is II
staple among Venezuelans.
Germany expects to occupy one or
more of th- main ports of Venezuela.
probably La Guayra and Maracaibo.
In this connection the most positive as
surances have been given the United
States government that the occupation
is TO De Temporary and only for such
length of time as will permit the col
lection of the debt due to Germans.

is any ulterior purpose to establish Il
German coaling station on Venezuelan

THE "PIoUs" FUND
To Receive an Addition of Another
Million Dollars.

Washington. Dec. 27.-The state de-
Rartment has just added another to
the long list of arbitrations which it
has arranged within the last few days
for the settlement of American claims.
This arbitration viii provide for the
settlement Of the ''pious'' fund. which
has been the subject of diplomatic ex-
changes between the United States ard
Mexico, since the Mexican war.
The claim arose through the failure
of the Mexican government 10 pay to
the Archbishop of California interest
on the lands belonging 10 the Jesuits.
for which the Mexican government
acted as trustee. The claim was sub
mitted to the Mexican claims commits
sion in 1877, and Judgment was given
in favor of the church for about
1000. 900.
The Mexican government alleged
that that payment eXtinguished the
claim. but the state department held
that the interest began again from the
date of the award and has run until
at present. ii amounts to another mil
lion dollars. Personal representations
by the Archbishop of California, who
was recently in Washington, and other
dignitaries of the Catholic church
caused the department to press the
Inattsr, with the result stated.

There was really no need of precaution
in this case. for there was no one who
could have entertained any designs
against the wishes of the testator.
. Robertson was an old resident of
Tempe and had been in the employ of
G T. Hayden for great many years.
All his property was left to his wife.
Joaquina V. Robertson. 1t consisted of
mare by the name of Baby and a
progeny OF the mare called Bobs. There
was tract of land. some shares in a
canal and set of harness, at that time
in the possession Of Z. q. Schmidt,
probably with the object of being re-
paired, though how Mr. Robertson
knew that the harness would be there
~ the time of his death is not made
clear. He no doubt understood the
dilatory ways OF men who Undertake to
repair things.
The viii contains what the testator
believed TO be a complete list of his
creditors. One item is as follows, YER
batim; II owe Q. w Miller a sum for
subscription to a. newspaper. 1 thinkl
in fairness I should not pay more than
one-half the subscription, as while L
worked at Haydens more than three
fourths of the papers were swiped and
never saw them"
His wife. who was named as the exc
cutrix without bond, was directed to
sell as much of the property as she
could spare and pay the debts. The
testator states that he believes it to be
the wish of his wife to leave all her
property at her death to her nephew
Alexander and he offers a suggestion
which he thinks. if acted upon, would
be beneficial to both. He advises her
to discharge all the Indebtedness
against the estate and take out n life
insurance policy; to then make n Will
and demise the amount of the policy to-
Alexander and let him keep it paid up.
In this way she can provide for Alex
ander's future without any laborious
effort on her own part.
The executriX was especially enjoined
against making his funeral the occa-
sion Of a pompous display. Everything
WAS to be OF the cheapest and simplest
character. There was even to be no
hearse. His remains were TO be drawn
to the grave by Baby. the mare. They

Los Angeles. Dec. PA windstorm
of unusual force and destrrctiveness
ragged today all over the southern part
of California. The storm was what is
locally known as a santa Ana" and
carried with it fine dust from the
desert on the east. that fills the air and
obscures the vision at distances OF
more than Il few hundred yards.
Reports from the surrounding towns
describe much damage wrought by the
wind to oranges and some damage to
small buildings. railroad traffic is
delayed. and in some instances en-
tirely obstructed. The storm was The
heaviest in the vicinity of Cotton and
Pomona, between which places three
passenger trains on the main line OF
the Southern Pacific are stalled. the
sand piling upon the track 10 a depth
of two feet in places. and resisting all
efforts to keep the tracks clear.
Reports from Riverside. the heart OF
the orange growing region, sixty miles
east of Los Angeles. state that i'm
mense damage resulted from the high
wind. Oranges have been blown from
the trees. and in some cases the trees
themselves going down before the force
of the storm. From all accounts the
loss to the orchardists in the Riverside
district viii be in the neighborhood OF
1000 boxes.
At Redlands the storm was severe.
but most of the damage was not ser
ious. Sand piled upon the railroad d
tracks and obstructed all traffic dur
ing the day No through trains from
Los Angeles have reached Redlands to-
day. Telegraph and telephone wires
have suffered TO more or less eN-
tent throughout the storm area and
communication with many places is
difficult The wind ceased at RedIands
late in the afternoon, and 4 large force
of men was pat at work to clear the
railroad tracks and release the de-
layed trains.
AT Rochester. twenty miles east of
Redland the Southern Pacific east
bound train was tied up
Cotton seems to have been the very
center of the disturbance, and the wind
has done considerable damage to fruit
and small buildings. Sand blocked the
railroads and no trains have moved in
that vicinity since morning. The storm

afternoon and gradually subsidized aftel.
that hour.
The Southern Pacific has been the
worst sufferer in the matter of delayed
trains. In many places it has been
impossible II move a wheel. The Santa
Fe. while greatly delayed. managed TO
keep its trains moving.
The only inconvenience suffered in
Los Angeles from the storm was due
to Il fine dust that filled the air and
obscured the vision. Very little wind
