BLOODY RIOT at CORBIN
SEVERAL PERSONS KILLED AND
WOUNDED IN KENTUCKY.
Building Blown to Pieces and an I'm
know N Number of People Buried
I'm the Debris.

CORBIN. KY, JAM 16-A riot is IN
progress here tonight as result of the
shooting this afternoon of James Shotwell
by Rollie White. and several persons have
been killed and injured. Shotwell is in
pecarious condition late tonight and not
expected to recover. The trouble grew out
of the fact that White had been paying at
tention to Shotwell's daughter against the
will of the latter After the shooting White
submitted to arrest and was placed in his
brothers gocery store. where a guard was
placed over him awaiting the arrival of the
sheriff.
At $50 p. m. terrific explosion took place
under the grocery. So severe was the shock
that it tore the building literally to pieces.
There were about dozen persons in the
building at the time. Several escaped with
slight injuries, while several remained In
the debris, dead. No one at this time can
say how many are killed. Immediately aft
er the explosion there was rapid firing in
the neighborhood by unknown persons con-
cealed in the darkness. After the shooting
Susan Cox was found dead near the
wrecked building, having been struck by
stray ball. Citizens are afraid to visit the
rioting district tonight, and the number of
killed cannot be ascertained until morning.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 16.-At the request
of the State Department the Navy Depart
ment has instructed the Scorpion to pro-
Venezuela, to protect American interests,
upon reports that the revolution there is
increasing and the attempt is making to
take possession of the arms of the New
York Bermudez Company
The news came to the State Department
from private but perfectly reliable source,
and was made the basis of immediate rep
reservations to the Navy Department Sec
rotary Long responded very promptly to
the request of the State Department, and
within few minutes after its receipt, Cap
tain Cowles, who is acting as Chief of the
Navigation Bureau during the illness of
Admiral Crowninshield. was in conference
with Acting Secretary Hill at the State
department, respecting the movements of
the naval vessel and the character of the
instructions to be sent to Lieutenant Com
mander Sargent, of the Scorpion which
happens to be the only vessel available for
immediate service,and adjacent to the scene
OF trouble. Respecting these instructions,
nothing could be learned at the State De-
partment beyond that statement that Com
mander Sargent had been instructed to
avoid bloodshed and the destruction of
property If possible. Still. taken in con-
nection with what has gone before there
is little doubt that If the disturbing forces
In Venezuela, whether governmental or
revolutionary, are seeking to dispossess the
lncumbants I'm the asphalt concession in
defiance of the tacit agreement that there
first should be a thorough judicial inquiry,
the United States warship will prevent that
action, peaceably IL possible, forcible IL
necessary. Guanoco is not to be found on
ordinary charts but is said to be the
nearest point to the asphalt concessions
to the Scorpion, lying up the Orinoco river
about two days run from Laguayra. so
that the warship should be at the seat of
the trouble before the end of the present
week.
The State Department is also in receipt of
private but trustworthy advices to the eff
feet that the Orinoco Shipping and Trading
Company, two of whose vessels were seized
yesterday by the Venezuelan government,
is an English corporation. The vessels are
under British registry, but fly the Venezue-
Ian flag. Under these circumstances the
State Department had found itself unable
to intervene directly to compel restitution,
but in view of the fact that American cap
ital is invested in the company, 1T has di-
rected Minister LOomis to use his good Of
fees as far as possible to protect these
American interests.

Ian and McKenna would hold in the cases
pending before the court.
This statement brought Mr. Foraker to
his feet with sharp and somewhat excited
interruption in which he disclaimed having
given any such intimation- Mr.. Pettigrew
responded with equal spirit TO the effect
that his words were capable Of the con-
struction that he IPettigrewl had placed
upon them and added that he could bring
any number OF senators 10 substantialo
him.
Responding. Mr.. Foraker repeated what
he had said yesterday according TO his
recollection and said that he had meant
to say and had said that he had such con-
fdence IN the principle OF the legislation
with reference 10 our newly acquired pose
sessions that he had not doubted for
moment the position the court would
take when il came TO the adjudication Of
questions under that tribunal 1T would
TO my mind be a waste of raw material
in the way OF time, he went on, for the
administration to give places to the sons
of justices of the Supreme Court In order TO
influence their fathers to support the adj
ministration in these matters. for i have
such confidence in the soundness OF our
position that / count absolutely upon their
sustaining the constitutionality of our
legislation. That / said yesterday" he
added, land l have said it many times
both In open and executive session. and
i repeat the statement again to-day"
In view Of his confidence I'm the position
taken he pooh-poohed the idea OF bribery
by the giving of official place as entirely
out OF the question and added that IL was
unbecoming in the Senate to indulge such
talk. He again referred TO the high char
acter OF Mr.. Harlan man and a lawyer
and said that he had been rendered the
same position for which he is now a nomi-
nee a year ago. when there were no fnsular
cases before the court and had declined H.
When the debate closd IL was ascertained
that there were only forty-one senators, or
fewer than a quorum. present and the
nomination again went over.
