CREATED UNUSUAL STIR.
ur;ted States Tender of Good Offices
with Colombia and Venezuela
Excites Interest.
uos1 ACCEPTABLE TO SOUTH AMERICA.
=. l.. Now Up to the Colombian and
venezuelan Government" TO Ac-
oept Their Old Uncle's Offer and
Give the Monroe Doctrine IA Good
uooat,

Washington, Sept. 5.-The action OF
Aha limited States in rendering It's
"a offices to Venezuela and Colom-
sao IN avert war between those
oorrtr1es has not yet advanced TO a
noint where this government has be-
run the work of mediator. 1t has
sionifed its willingness to act, but IT
will remain for the two countries to
Indicate when the time has arrived
Tor actual mediation. Colombia al
ready has made known that she will
welcome the exercise OF the pacific Of
Sces of the United States. The re-
snonse of Venezuela is understood to
be less definite in accepting the good
offices of the United States. The
Colombian minister, DR.. Silva, and the
Venezuelan charge d'affaires, Senior
Pulido left for Buffalo in the Pam
American party, which seems to indi-
cate that no immediate crisis is an
ticipated.
Crented an Unusual STIR.
The note of the United States offer
ing TO mediate has created an unusual
stir in South American diplomatic
ouarters. as it is construed TO be a
rather marked development of the
Monroe doctrine, and one which Will
be most acceptable to South America,
The Colombian government will
make an emphatic rejoinder to the Of
fetal statement OF Venezuela that
armed invasions by Colombian troops
have been crossing the Venezuelan
frontier and have been forcing war
upon that country. II will show in
substance that Colombian troops on
the frontier are there to protect the
border, and that any crossing OF the
line has been by detached bands with
out the APPROVAL OF the federal gov
eminent, II has just been disclosed
that Gen. Tribe made a statement at
the Colombian legation in this city to
the effect that the revolutionary
movement Of which he is the head,
had the support OF Venezuela, Ecuador
and Nicaragua. The statement was
made during the tendency OF negotia-
tons for the surrender Of the revolu-
tionists.
Tribes Agents Rusc.
The negotiations with Tribe closed,
II is authoritatively stated, with an
agreement of surrender, but the
Colombian authorities are now salts
fed that this was ruse by which his
agents secured passports through
Colombia and went on an ostensible
peace mission, whereas, their real
purpose was to act as spies and revo-
lutionary propagandsts.
Mail advices from Venezuela which
have reached the state department,
contain report from Minister Bow
en-, dated at Caracas, about the mid
die OF August, upon the conditions
under which Mr.. Russell, the United
States charge, undertook the custody
OF the Colombian legation at Caracas,
Mr.. Russell was requested by the
Withdrawing minister TO assume
charge OF the legation prcmises-not
TO undertake TO look after business OF
the legation.

Protect Your Trees.

The United States Department Of Agri-
culture announces that the caterpillar
which is doing so much damage to maple,
linden and other trees is the product of
the tussock moth, so called from the three
tussocks or tufts of hair so prominent on
the caterpillar. The fact that the female
moth is without wings tends to simplify
somewhat the method of prevention,
especially to those trees not yet affected.
A broad, thick strip of raw cotton tied
around the trunk and renewed occasion
ally will prove effective, says an Exchange.
Such banding will be useful also in cases
where the trees have already been at
tackled, as many caterpillars drop from
the trees, and the cotton prevents their
return. Such eggs as are deposited on the
trees can easily be removed by scraping.
In view of this nuisance at the present
time it behooves individual owners of
trees to take prompt steps to abate it for
the present and prevent it for the future
Mr.. L. o. Howard, United States ento-
mologist, will furnish copies of Farmers
Bulletin No. 80, with interesting illustra-
tions and description of the moth and
caterpillar.
