Willemstadt, Island Of Curacao, Dec.
13.-(via Haytian Cable, Dec. 13)-
There has been halt in the exchange
of communications between Germany
and Venezuela, owing to the publica.
tion in the newspapers Of Caracas of
cable dispatches from the United
States, setting forth that the govern
ment at Washington will not oppose
any steps which Germany may take
to enforce her rights In Venezuela,
with the exception Of preventing tire
annexation Of venezuealan territory.

In her dispute with Venezuela looks
on that country as being part Of the
territory of the United States.
1t is believed here that Germany, at
the end of the present month, will
take steps to obtain a due acknowl-
edgment of her claims for $2,OO0,0OO
arising from losses sustained by Ger
man citizens during the last revolution
here, and disallowed by Venezuela,
who answered last year that Germany
should present her claims before the
special Venezuelan courts appointed
to pass upon such matters.
But Germany, the United States,
Great Britain and France refused to
appeal to these courts. Italyfi alone,
being bound by a former treaty was
obliged to present her claims to the
Venezuelan courts.
The claim Of the Disconto bank Of
Berlin, will probably be included in
the claims presented by Germany.
The situation In Venezuela is criti-
cal and fears are expressed of gen
eral uprising there In January.

HIT As HE SELECTED

Somebody had asked Confederate
veteran In a group on the hotel piazza
at nearby resort whether he had
known Of many cases of premonition Of
death before battle. Yes and no." he
replied. "On the eve Of an engage
ment thousands Of soldiers undoubted-
ly have vague feeling that they will
be killed and of course In some cases
the prescience is bound to come true.
However. there is nothing remarkable
in premonitions of that kind. Where
one is fulfilled hundreds come to
naught and are forgotten.
But your question reminds me-" the
veteran continued, "of very curious
experience of my own. II was on the
night before Shiloh, and a dozen or 80
soldiers in my company were talking,

wounded in the battle which We all

said he would be willing to sacrifice n

replied, but II that's my fate, think
I'd prefer to be hit in the canteen.
They all laughed at the sally and the
chatting turned to something else.

NEGRO AND SLAVERY
ARMY OFFICER DEFENDS
HIS RADICAL ASSERTIONS
Believes Slavery Was a Benefit and
Doubts the Wisdom of Freeing
NegrO--CompareS Constitution
and Jim Grow Cars.

Carlisle, Pa, Dec. 20.-In reply to a
protest from Bishop Francis H. Hill
of the African Methodist Episcopal
Church. Major Richard II. Pratt, super
intendent of the Carlisle Indian School
and an officer in the Tenth (coloreG)
Cavalry. has written to Bishop Hill de-
Tending his assertions as to the benefits
of slavery for tho negro.
Major Pratt last week delivered an
address before the Cumberland County
Teachers Institute. in which he spoke
of slavery as having been the means Of
developing the negro race and bringing
it into beneficial contact with civili2a-
ton. On the appearance of a report
OF his address. Bishop Hill. who lives
at Harrisburg. addressed vigorous
letter to the Major, demanding to know
on what grounds he justified negro
slavery.
Major Pratt. in his reply. said:
What | said was that slavery had
brought 100000 blacks from the
torrid zone into this enlightened coun-
try, taught them a new language and
prepared them by association for cit.-
zenship. ! am beginning to question
whether freedom for your people in the
United States is going to be such boon
to you and the United States.
I'VE blame the people of the South
for Jim Crow cars. The United States
makes a constitutional amendment that
there shall be no distinction on ac-
count Of race color or previous condi-
lions Of servitude.' Then Congress I'M
mediately legislates that there shall DO
two regiments of cavalry and two OF
infantry. made up entirely Of colored
men.
you certainly have no grounds to
querrel with slavery unless you regret
being transplanted from the jungles Of
Africa and your low estate there to the
citizenship. freedom and intelligence
in the United States you now enjoy
for slavery was the bridge that carried
you over, and there was not and is not
another bridge to that job"

Government, hrlouginc to the railroad
company, has b, on leased to the com
pany re:pctuaily for the sum of one
dollar.
The suit Of the Government against
the oahu Railroad & Land Com
pany will be dismissed in the
Federal Court as a result This
amicable settlement of the condemna-
ton suit is the outcome of a compro-
mise suggested by President Dillingham;
of the railroad company. after a meet
ing with the direo tors of the company.
His offer was 10 convey all the land Of
the company to the United States Gov
eminent, for the use of the naval sta
ton without consideration. IT, on the
other hand, the Government would exc
cute to the railroad company a perpet-
ual lease of the land for one dollar.
Commandant Pond acting for the
United States Government, sent this
proposition to Washington, and on the
last steamer he received telegram
from the Attorney General advising him
to accept the proposition, and empow-
erins him to make the lease as pro-
posed.
The oahu Railway & Land co. was
one of the defendants in the condemna-
ton suit against the Bishop Estate and
others. In the answer to the complainI
filed a week ago the respondent claim
ed damages to the amount of $S5, 900 for
the land condemned by the Govern
ment This was strip two and one
thirteenth miles in length and forty
feet wide, comprising the right of way
of the railroad.
1t was claimed by the company that
the damage by the Government taking
this strip would be very great, and it
would necesstate the construction of
"A new line of track at large expense.
The amicablc adjustment of the diff
Guilty is best for both parties. as the
Government has no particular need of
the land in question. 1t was absolutely
necessary, however. that the title to the
property should rest in the United
States, and this is done in the agree
ment and lease made In regard to the
property.
The hearing of the remainder of the
cases is stil a matter Of conjecture.
United States Attorney Baird said yes
terday that the cases had not been set
for trial, and no answers had been filed
by the remainder of the defendants,
who have been given extensions in
time.

Chamber, who is also head of the firm

1T is much better for the American

for themselves, and nobody can blame
Englishmen for accepting American
dollars; but there is an element of
great danger in this transfer. because
1t means combination between the
American railways and sea-carrying.
We must realize that the United States
intends, so far as possible. to make
itself the manufacturer for the world.
The only way in which the. British
