THE SITUATION GRAVE.
Americans in Venezuela Exposed to
Guerilla Warfare.
The Revolution in Eastern Vene-
zueIa Is Increasing-Insurge
Have Retaken CarupanO and
Will Attack Cumana.

Port of Spain, Trinidad, Jan. 3d.
According to advices received Tues
day from Caracas, a trustworthy en-
gineer, who has arrived there from
Pitch lake, reports that the situation
is disastrous. Ke says that $50 Eng
lish Negroes who were employed to
surgents began firing into the jun
do police duty fed when the in
giles, only 25 Americans being left to
protect the property and lives of
American families. The messenger
from the lake implored the United
States legation at Caracas to afford
protection, saying that the lives and
property of Americans were exposed
to guerrilla attacks, firing around
the lake going on nightly and the
Americans being too few to hold out
long.
United States Minister Loomis, ac-
cording to the same advices, replied
that these reports were possibly ex-
aggerated, but that they could not
be ignored, and that he would wire
the facts to Washington.
Mr.. Olcott, the Orinoco manager,
has returned from Caracas, where he
went to try to arrange for the re-
lease of the steamers and schooners
captured by a Venezuelan gunboat
near Trinidad. The British owner
flew the Venezuelan flag and the
crew were not shot.
The revolution in Eastern Venezu-
ella, near the asphalt deposits, is in
creasing, but the disturbances are re-
mote from Caracas, which remains
tranquil.
Information that has reached Port
of Spain says that the insurgents
have retaken Carupano and will at
tack Cumana soon. Steamers are not
allowed to land passengers or mails
at Carupano. The commander of the
French cruiser Suchet, which lies
there, confirms this intelligence and
the reported activity of the insur-
gents 1T appears that an attempt
to capure Ciudad Bolivar, capital of
the state of Bolivar, about 375 miles
up the Orinoco, is likely to be made
as soon as the insurgents have re-
ceivcd a large supply of arms ex-
pected.
Cables to the Trinidad papers from
Caracas are severely censored. The
Venezuelan government threatens
three American reporters with forci-
BILE expulsion, and is vigorously sup
pressing dispatches to the United
States. Even diplomatic messages
are tempered with.

G. A. R. ENCAMPMENT.
1t Is Predicted That 10000 Vet
Grams Will Attend the Annual
Reunion at Cleveland.

Cleveland, O., Jan. 29-Members of
the subcommittee of the National G.
y. r. council of administration, who
arc in the city, predict that 100000
veterans will attend the annual en-
campment to be held in this city
next fall.
The local committee expects $780,
600 visitors to come to the city DUR
ing the encampment. The city will
be asked to raise a fund of about
$4,000 for the entertainment of the
old soldiers. Free accommodations
viii have to be provided for 10000
delegates.
The Erie railroad, which is not a
member of the Central Passenger as
sociatiop, has announced that it will
grant rate of one cent a mile for
the encampment.

MORTARS OUT OF DATE.
Obsolete Guns-Accurate Aim
Is Impossible.

1t is an open secret in both the navy
and war departments that the average
battleship would think nothing at all
of sailing right up against whole bat
terry of mortars, whereas it would hest
tate to encounter q single 12-inch rifle.
The mortar battery fires its shell up in
the air at distance of several miles,
and it is not an eXtravagant statement
to say that there is not one chance in
a thousand of the shells striking a bat
tleship moving even at the lowest rate
of speed.
1t is impossible to aim these mortars
at a moving ship, and even the range
finders are of slight assistance. Naval
experts estimate that battleships are
in more danger of being struck by
lightning than hostile blow from all
the mortars in the world.
There are now in position 240 of these
12-inch mortars, scattered along the
coast and supposed to guard important
ports on the Atlantic, gulf and Pacific
coasts. Besides that the mortars take
as much care as a rif1ed cannon.
To cap the climax of the absurdity,
it is to be noted that even during the
last year no less than Ga of the pinch
Wortars have been put into position.

tary men view these relics of bygone

MURDERERS SENTENCED.
McAlister, Death and Campbell to
Serve 30 Years at Hard Labor
and Kerr For 10 Years.

Paterson, N. j., Jan. 3O.-Walter c..
McAlistcr, William A. Death and An
drew j. Campbell, who were found
guilty of murder in the second de-
gree for the killing of Jennie Bos-
schieter on October IS, 1900, by the
administration of choral and subse-
quent rape, together with George J.
Kerr, who pleaded non vult con-
tendre to charge of rape, were
brought into the court of oyer and
terminef Tuesday for sentence by
Judge Dixon. McAlister, Campbell
and Death were each sentenced to
80 years Imprisonment at hard labor
and Kerr to Is years imprisonment
at hard labor. The sentences of all
of the men are the full terms of inn
prisonment which the law provides.
While Judge Dixon was sentencing
the prisoners Hugh Kerr, the father
of George, lay dying within a stones
throw of the court house. Mr.. Kerr
is dying because of the disgrace of
his son George. George did not know
until Tuesday night that his father
was so i'll. Equally ignorant of the
sons sentence will the father re-
main. He does not want to hear of
the case at all.

FOREIGN ENJOYS MEET.
Hsu Chen I, Chih Sin and the
Boxer Leaders Captured in
the Japanese quarters
Are Being Held.

Picking, Jan. ga meeting of the
foreign ENJOYS was held Monday
morning, attended only by those
whose fellow countrymen have been
killed in the internal provinces, the
object being to decide what punish
ment should be inflicted upon minor
officials. A report will be made to a
general meeting of the ministers, to
be held probably after the funeral of
Queen Victoria. The ministers re-
fuse to state the decisions arrived at,
but it is believed that few will be be-
headed, and certainly not the highest
officials.
Ii Hung Chang and Prince Ching
have, on their request, had Sheng and
Chou Flu appointed to assist in the
negotiations. Chou Flu is the newly
appointed treasurer of Chilli, and
was formerly Chinese minister to
Korea.
The Germans Monday began build
ing a barracks for the legation
guards.
Reports from the province of Ho-
Nan say that the native Christians
there are not molested, but that they
are boycOtted and suffering consid-
cradle distress in consequence.
Hsu Chang /, son of Hsu Ting, the
notorious anti-foreign guardian of
the heir apparent, and also Chin Sin,
4 member of the Tsung Ii Yamen,
and the Boxer leaders captured in
the Japanese quarters are being
held for punishment.
London, Jan. 29.-The Daily News
publishes the following from it's
Shanghai correspondent: "Sheng,
the taotai, has received a telegram
from Ii Hung Chang saying that the
Russian representatives in Manchu-
ria presented to Tseng Chi, the Tar
tar general at Shen King, nine peace
conditions, restoring Manchuria to
China, but giving Russia absolute
control of the province, she UNDER
taking in case of war to support
China. AS Tseng Chi rejected these
conditions, Ii Hung Chang ordered
ChO Ha Pau, the new Tartar general
at Hal Lung Rang, to undertake the
negotiations"
