Dissatisfaction has existed among the

the company their grievaIc which they
declare have been ignored. When trouble
was imminent couple Of weeks ago, a
committee OF five appointed by the men,

him of their grievances The men now
point to the fact that these five men h. e
all been discharged and say that there
was no reason for their dismissal ex-

PERU READY TO PAY.
= Settlement of the FOyvkes Claim
Case Agreed Upou

The claim OF the United States against
Peru on account Of indignities to William
Fowkes, an American citizen. was ad-
juSted amiCably today. Fowkes was en-
gagged in business in Tombez. Peru. at
the time Of the revolution Of 1894. He re
fused to contribute 400 soIes 20 the in
suTgent cause and wTs imprisoned After
spending twenty-four hours in Jail he
paid over the money.
The Peruvian Government combated
Fowkes claim for damage with the con-
tenticn that it was not responsible for
the acts Of Insurgents 1t was shown by
the United States. however, that there
were COO Federal troops near Tombez,
while only $50 Insurgents were in the
town.
This morning the State Department re
ceived telegram from United States
Minister Dudley, at Lima. in which he
said that Peru had offered TO pay 5000
soles in settlement of the claim and that
this would be satisfactory to Fowkes,
who still resides in that country. The
State Department instructed Minister
Dudley TO accept the offer
The point raised by the United States,
that a Government is responsible for the
acts of insurgents which it is able to
prevent, has an important bearing on the
claims Of American citizens against Spain
for injuries inflicted to their interests
during the Cuban Instruction.
A great many Of these claims are for
damage done by the Cuban army while
Cuba was under Spanish control. a ques-
ton that, therefore, arises, is. Could the
Spanish forces in Cuba have prevented
these injuries to American interests?
Under the Paris Treaty of Peace the
United States assumed liability for dam
age done the interests of American citi-
zenS and Spain assumed liability for in
jury done Spanish citizens growing out Of
the war
