women were hurried into the other
sleepers and made as comfortable as pos
sibie. Several lost their clothing and
personal effects. Blankets were loaned
to those who had lost their clothes. and
they remained wrapped in these until
Jacksonville was reached, where Plant
system and Pullman officials provided for
their wants.
One man lost his trousers, and several
men We're minus their coats. The women
lost the majority of their wearing ap-
parel. The officials had the measures of

CONSULAR REPRESENTATIVE AT

HIS SECOND EXPERIENCE

PORT OF SPAIN. Trinidad, March IT,
Via Haytien cable.)-News has reached
here that the United States consular
agent at Barcelona, Venezuela, Igueno
Baize, has been arrested by Venezuelan
officers and imprisoned without cause
This is the second time he had been
treated in this fashion within the last five
months, and he will resign unless pro-
tected by the Washington government
1T appears that several sums of money
have been forced from him by the Vene-
zuelan authorities to escape imprison-
ment.
The protests of Mr.. Baize to Washing
ton seem to be without effect so far.
Three weeks ago Minister LOOMS made q
demand upon the Venezuelan government
for an apology for the first outrage but
his communication was quite ignored

EARL Ii SICK AGAIN.
HIS DEATH AT ANY MOMENT
WOULD CAUSE NO SURPRISE.


PEKIN, March 17-AThe health of Ii
Hung Chang is again matter of grave
concern to the ministers of the powers
Mr.. Rockhfll, the American special
commissioner, who visited Ii yesterday,
says he is a physical wreck and appar-
emily in a state of utter collapse, al
though mentally as brilliant as ever Mr.
Rockhill would not be surprised to hear
of his death at any moment.
The removal of Ii 1ung Chang by
death or any other cause would be unfor-
tunate at the present moment.
NJ de Giers, the Russian minister, said
today: Lii Hung Chang is a great diplo-
mat, and his influence with the Chinese
court is absolutely unique No other man
in China surpasses him in this respect.
The influence is not temporary, but is
particularly effective at important mo-
ments in the history of China like the
present
Senor Calocan, Spanish minister and
doyen of the diplomatic corps, said: '"The
Chinese government could not appoint
anybody else of an equal caliber and
having equal influence with the Chinese
and the foreigners Although the min
listers of the powers aook upon Ii Hung
Chang as essentially a trimmer. never
theless they regard that he is the best
possible man to deal with in China at
the present moment
Orders have been received by the Unit
ed States troops to depart next month
leaving behind only 150 infantry. The
German headquarters staff assert that
these instructions are a great mistake,
alleging that it is necessary to retain
large body of foreign troops in the coun-
try for at least twp years.
Most of the ministers, however, take a
contrary view, believing the best course
is to retain small force to represent
each nation and withdraw the rest.

OMAHA, Neb., March 17.-(Speciat}--
Harry Churchill helped his child bride,
nee Olga Priest, to elude her mother, and
carried her off to a home made for her
in spite of parental reproof and threats.
In her escape Olga had to grab some of
her mothers wearing apparel, which later
was returned.
Olga got confederate to make social
call upon her mother, whereupon Olga
slipped in the back way, got up to her
wardrobes, which she bundled up and
threw out the window. The bridegroom
was waiting, and carried the raiment to
their rooms in a fat. The parents seeing
the utter hopelessness of the case have
instructed their attorneys to stop pro-

ago they eloped and were married in
Council Bluffs. Upon their return Mrs.
Priest took poison Their married life
