GERMAN OFFICERS ATTACKED
BY a Mo in the streets o. II
elan Town.

Port of Spain, Trinidad, October 10
The British royal mail steamer Eden
arrived here today from LaGuayra,
Venezuela, and brought the following
reliable news:
Last Sunday about fifty sailors from
the German cruiser Vineta became en-
gagged in a street row, at Porto Cabelio,
with the local populace. Police in civil
ian clothes interferred, siding with the
inhabitants. and fight became general.
the Germans making their way toward
1.-THE wharf, where thew boarded the Ger
man steamer Valesia, moored at that
place.
In the meantime two petty officers Of
Nineta, who were entirely sober
and who We're waiting at the wharf To
take the Vineta's boat, were attacked
by the police. They resisted and the
police wounded them both badly within
their swords. All the Germans ashore
were unarmed. The petty Of
ficers were carried on board the Vale
STA by members of the Valesia crew,
the pOpulace and police still attacking
them with stones n sticks.
The mob then tried to board the
Valesia but were prevented from so
doing by the captain and crew of hat
vessel.
In the meanwhile, the captain of the
Valesia had signaled to the Vineta,
which was in the harbor, the perilous
situation OF the Germans and the vi
meta sent a boat load of thirty armed
men who boarded the Valesia and,
making a feint of firing, dispersed the
mob.
1t is said that the Venezuelan govern
ment is putting the blame for the affair
upon the Germans and has requested
the German minister to apologize for
the sailors conduct.
1t is believed at Caracas that the
German minister intends to ask Vene-
Zuela to apologize.

Crowninshfeld's Annual Re
port Points cut the Deficiency

Washington, October 1l-Admiral
Crowninshieid in his annual report
upon the imperative need of the
navy for more officers and men. He
says if the department were called
to man the ships for war service
lit could not meet the demand. There
are not enough line officers to man the
ships already constructed. When, in
three years, the vessels, now under con-
Istruction shall have been completed.
the number of officers necessary to
them and a few auxiliary vessels
would be no less than a thousand. and
THE problem presented is how these Off
Icers can be secured in the short time
remaining. There is but one remedy
according to Admiral Crowninshield.
and that is to increase the number of
jcadets at the naval academy. That
number should not be less thar 500.
Therefore, it is recommended that be-
lginning with the next congress. there
shall be allowed at the academy. two
naval cadets from every representative
lor delegate, two for each senator, one
for the district OF Columbia and ten at
large annually, and hat the course
should be limited to four years.
Another striking recommendation of
admiral Crowninshield is h four vice
Iadmirals be created. reducing the num-
her Of rea admirais 20 fourteen If
necessary. It is said that the United
Estates often has been placed in a hu-
Initiating position on important occa-
lsions by reason of the low rank OF its
naval representatives.

ENGLAsD,s FORCES IN AFRICA
Minister Brodrick Says Kitchener Il
Not Hampered In His Demands

London. October 1a.-The secretary
Of war, Mr.. Brodrick. replying TO Sir
Charles Howard vincent's offer to
raise fresh troops or to do anything
else to assist the government, declines
the proposal. and In so doing lengthily
reviews the British position in South
Africa, obviously in answer to the
persistent and searching criticisms of
the ministerial journals and members
of parliament, hat the government is
languidly content TO let the war drag
on. Mr.. Brodrick says, to begin with,
nothing Lord Kitchener has asked for
has not been promptly met. He adds:
we have. roughly, 2O0. 600 men ana
450 guns in South Africa, and over
100. 900 men are in training ~ hcn--
W. have no difficulty. therefore. IN
keeping the field army up TO its req
uisite strength by drafts, and II a fur
Their call be made we are in a position
to meet IL with the utmost prompti-
tude. Notwithstanding this. there
to be an impression abroa that
the close OF the war Is retarded by n
scarcity Of troops. or h want OF mo-
bility OF our columns"
This impression Mr.. Brodrick COM
bats by reciting what the war office
is doing-providing supplies for $4,000
directly or indirectly connect
ed with h war, feeding 24s, 0o0 horses
and mules and maintaining Jour
months reserves Df foo for men and
animals. Si~xty-nine mobile columns,
perfectly equipped, are now in the
field and 10000 remounts are being
landed monthly. besides those cap
tured.
Mr.. Brodrick says the anxiety can
be set at rest at home. The govern
ment has never interfered with Lord
Kitchener, in whose vigorous prosecu-
ton of the war they have entire con-
fdence. He points out again the vast
extent of the country.
Abiding To Lord K~itchener's sending
back poorly trained yeomanry, Mr..
Brodrick replies that they would have
trained earlier, but for the opin-
ion of military advisers in South AZ
RIGA and at home. up to November,
1900, that no fresh troops were needed.

warranted, do so by jumping
them over their superiors.
Representatives Davey and Meyer, of
Louisiana, introduced to the president
the New Orleans delegation to the
river and harbor congress that has just
finished it's work at Baltimore and

that the republican organization Of the

they believe it is more to the advantage
