AMERICAN CONSUL
 IS UNDER ARREST
He Was Taken in Custody by Venezuelan Officers With
 out Cause

|. Port of Spain, Trinidad, March r, via. Haytien Cable.-News has reached here that the United States consular agent at Barcelonia, Venezuela Ignacio Baiz, has been arrested by Venezulan officers and imprisoned without adequate cause. This is the second time he has been treated in t.Ns fsebiop within the last five months and he will resign unless protected by the Washington government. It appears that several sums of money have been forced from him by the Venezuelan or ficials under threat of Imprisonment.
 The protests of MT. Baiz to Washington seem to have been met with no response thus thus far. Three months ago MT. Loomis. the United States minister at Caracas, made demand upon the Vene- zuelan government for an apology for the outrage. but his communication was quite ignored.

BEFORE THE GAZE OF MANY TEAR STAINED EYES THE REMAINS OF
 GEN. HARRISON ARE INFERRED
tcontiuued from First Page,


 Hng 'in which it entered For the most part those who attended the church ser vices left immediately for Crown Hill cemetery.
 At the Cemetery
 Gathered around the Harrison lot in the Crown Hill cemetery were the thousands of people who, with bowed heads and manifestations of sincere sorrow, watched the funeral procession make its way to the grounds
 It was nearly $ o'clock when the line of relatives and friends arrived at the tomb. On the arm of Lieutenant-Com- mander Parker, Mrs. Harrison took her place at the head of the coffin, which had been borne to the side of the grave by the pallbearers. Through the heavy mourning veil which she wore there were visible marked signs of the grief through which she had passed. Her lips trembled continually, and 1t was evident that she kept her emotion under control by the greatest effort.
 Near her ou the left stood the generals s son, Russel B. Harrison, with his wife and MT and Mrs. Mckee. Mrs. Russel Harrison. Mrs. Mckee and the brothers of General Harrison, John Scott Harri- son and Carter B. Harrison, stood close together.
 President Mckinley came to the grave with Mrs. Durbin and stood with her during the brief service. Beside him were Governor Durbin and Private Secretary Cortelyou.
 Fifty yards away from the circle of mourners and from the tomb were thou sands who watched the ceremony Long ropes were stretched to give free access to the grave to the family and friends and to keep back the crowd, which formed a solid square, with the little group around the grave center
 The Rev Niccolls read the short com initial and burial service and Rev. Haines followed with prayer.
 The Coffin Lowered.
 When the service was over the attend ants lowered the coffin to its place. To the last 1t bore the wreath of Mrs liar -ison and the bouquet of lilies of the valley from little Elizabeth. On the coffin was placed a heavy walnut protecting cover and then the granite roof of the tomb was lowered. Dozens of beautiful floral tributes were placed on the tomb. After the mourning party had left and had been placed in the carriages, the thousands of spectators stood and looked long at the grave. It was apparently diffi- cult to realize the fact that Benjamin Harrison. general ex-Presdent, Senator. diplomat, man of affairs, was cold In the grave.
 After the people left the grave was nlled and flowers placed over all AS the people slowly left the cemetery the distant boom of cannon firing the national salute came to their ears and hy the time the last gun was fired the night was down and the grave alone.
 The only flowers buried with the cas- ket were those sent personally by Mrs Harrison. A portion of the flowers sent by Russell Harrison and Mrs. Mckee were placed on the grave of Mrs. Caroline Scott Harrison. their mother.

 Foreaker is Mentioned.
 Ohio is quite likely to have a candi- date in Joseph Benson Foraker. The sen for Senator from Ohio, however is more concerned just at present with his re- election to the Senate-his term ending two years hence, and with his growing law business. Of course, he has not over looked the possibilities of the future, and would probably be surprised as we'll as disappointed if his name were not pre- sented at the next national convention. His Senatorial record and grasp of great questions, as well as his attractive per sonality and growing popularity through out the country, make him one of the men who is naturally considered when 1904 is under discussion He may not be nominated, but those who support him in that convention will certainly have some thing to say regarding the nominee, per haps the controlling voice.
 Senator Fairbanks of Indiana is being prominently mentioned as q man of ex- perience, a good politician and one who has the qualities that would make safe and satisfactory President. He is not a brilliant orator, but can talk we'll and knows how and when to do 80. Indiana will support him solidly. MT. Beveridge reserving his ambitions for later date and in the west he will command much strength. With a clean record and an at tractive personality, MT. Fairbanks will bc prominent figure in 1904.
 Senator John c. Spooner is another pos- sibility man of great brain and great legal ability, with grasp of public ques- tions and sound judgment. Wisconsin will send delegation for him. If he wants it, and he will have f3e considered in the calculations of 1904

TWO CONSTABLES
 KILLED BY ROUGHS
LOGAN COUNTY (W. VA.) MEN
 FIRE REVoLVERS IN STREETS AND THE CITIZENS FLY IN TER. ROR.

Williamsonville, W. Va, December 24 Several Logan County men rode into Dingess, few miles west of here today, and while intoxicated, rode up and down the business streets firing revolvers at random. The citizens fled in terror as the plate glass windows were being cracked by flying bullets.
 In the party were Walter Adams and John Mullens, halfbrothers. Constable John Dillon was sent for and half an hour later arrived and attempted to ar rest the men, when a regular street duel occurred, probably twenty shots being fired. Constable Dillon and John Null lens were killed instantly and Adams was slightly wounded. The latter mount ed his horse and rode rapidly to the interior.
 Dillon Is prominently known. The ex- citement is intense and should Adams be captured, a lynching may follow. Sher- fir Williamson of this city, heads a posse that Is also after Adams

SEPARATE CONVENTION.
South American Republics Will Form
 Arbitration Plan of Their Own.

Mexico City, December A.-Though the Pan-American conference as a whole will undoubtedly fall back in the matter of arbitration upon The Hague convention, 1t Is learned that number of the South American nations will join among them selves to sign separate convention of compulsory arbitration.
 Some of the nations who will sign the compulsory plan will not refuse to sign the milder arrangement to be formuIat- ed by the committees, but others like Argentine are so bent on compulsory ar- bitration that it was claimed they will decline to sign anything less radical.
 No where is the Chili-Argentine dispute followed with greater interest than in Mexico just now Articles setting forth both sides of the dispute and supposed to be inspired by the representatives of nations at the Pan-American conference appear daily in the press.
 If war were to break out the conference would almost certainly dissolve as there Is little question that the Argentine dele gates and those who sympathize with them would withdraw.

CENSUS BULLETIN OF MUCH INTEREST Alabama Industrial Condition
 Is Fully Set Forth. WAGE BANNERS INCREASE. Iron, Steel, Lumber and Cotton All Make a Good Showing In the
 Census Department-Fig-
 ures That Tell.
WAGE BANNERS INCREASE.

The census department has issued bulletin on the industries of Alabama, in the twelfth census, which will soon be generally distributed and be read with great interest.
 From many facts and figures about Alabama the following exhibit and re- marks are taken.
 Iron and Steel-Capital invested $15,- 913479; wage earners, 723S; value of prod uct, s173s2, 4S3.
 Coke-Establishme ents. 15; wage earners 1892; value of product $3.726, 4SS.
 Cars and Shop Construction-Establi m ents, 19; wage earners. 4030; value of product s4172, ,192.
 Foundry and Machine Shop Products Establishments, "A; wage earners, 546l i; value of output, S, 4S2, All
 The importance of the iron and steel in- l dustry in Alabama is directly due to the 1 development of extensive deposits of iron ore, coal, limestone and dolomite, which are found in most unusual proximity in the Birmingham district. This combina- tion of natural advantages makes 1t pos SlDle lO pEOuuCe iiol dl fCiS io" cost.
 One of the most important of Alabama's 8 foundry products is cast iron pipe. There were eleven establishments, most of them at Bessemer, Anniston and Birmingham, engaged in this manufacture during the census year. Some of these export prod ucts to foreign countries. Other important iron products of the State are stoves. car wheels boilers and engines.
 The various iron industries have con- tinued to advance since the close of the census year, and the new works at Ems ley are described.
 The Census Department gives good deal of space in the Alabama bulletin to the lumber industry, which ranks next to iron, and to the cotton industry, which ranks third. Tn 1900 there were Ill lum- Der establishments and thirty-one cotton establishments.
 A significant fact is found in the in- crease of wage earners in Alabama. In 1880 the wage earners equaled only one eighth of 1 per cent of the whole popula- ton, while in 1900 they equaled 40 per cent.
