RosEHILL's CLAIM VOID.
Sovereignty Of Japan Over Marcus ISL
81 and to Be Admitted.

and to Be Admitted.
Y. Washington, Aug. IL. The claim Of
Captain Andrew T. Rosehill of Homo
lulu to ownership Of Marcus island,
over which he raised the Stars and
Stripes in 1889, will be formally denied
by the state department as soon as GER
tain additional information to sub
stantiate Japan's claim to sovereignty
over it has been received. In. addition
to denying Captain Rosehill's claim, it
acknoWled Japan's sovereignty.
The decision is based on his failure
to comply with the law Of the United
States concerning guano islands. Cap
tain Rosehill found the island in 1889,
but he did not file the bond required by
law until this year, on the eve Of his
departure from Honolulu with an ex-
pedition to exploit the gnano beds. In
the meantime Japanese subjects have
been living on the island and working
the deposits, and in 1893 the Japanese
government formally annexed it and
proclaimed the fact.

LOOKING FOR BARTHoLIN.
Developments in Connection With Re.
y cent Chicago Murders.

-'z-7 cent Chicaqo MuroerS.
Chicago, Aug. 12.-Developments in
the mysterious murders of Minnie
Mitchell and Mrs. Annie Bartholin
have led the police to double their ef-
forts to locate William ]. Bartholin,
respectively fiance and son of the two
women. At the inquest over the body
Of the older woman, which was found
Saturday night crammed into a hole
in the cement floor Of the Bartholin
home, neighbors readily identified the
corpse as that of Mrs. .Bartholin. The
burial Of Minnie Mitchell by her family
removed all doubt in the public mind
that the body found in the field at
Seventy-fourth and State streets last
week was that of the young woman
who was last seen with Bartholin
Complete hearing over Mrs. Bartho-
Inns body was postponed by the coro-
ner until Aug. 21 in the hope that ad-
ditional clews to the murders may be
obtained. e..
It has developed that young Bartho-
lin had quarreled with his mother
just before she disappeared over the
question. of bringing his prospective
wife to live at his mothers home.

coNTRADlcTs HARRY DE wlNDT
Grand Duke Boris Denies Story Q
Siberian Atrocities.

San Francisco, Aug. 12.-"Those
stories are all humbug," said the
Grand Duke Boris Of Russia when
questioned in an interview here as to
statements made by Harry de Windt,
the explorer, concerning alleged
cruelties practiced upon exiles in some
Of the Siberian outposts. One sta
tion in particular the explorer de-
scribed as "hell upon earth and
said: .-.r (
of all the men and women there
only two are accused of actual crime.
The others are political agitators.'
I don't know Mr.. de Windt," said
the grand duke. "Of course Russian
discipline is strict in Siberia. It has
to be so. England and France have
treated prisoners more severely than
have the Russian authorities the exiles
to Siberia.
why there should be such a thing
as an exile system in any country is
another question. Once in Siberia, for
whatever cause, the prisoners or ex-
lies, If you please, are not subjected to
inhumanA nAtreatment.
There may be and doubtless are
isolated cases Of undue severity, as in
the prisons and asylums of the United
States and every other country The
responsible Russian authorities al
ways see that justice is done in these
cases. It is a fact that thousands Of
exiles, when pardoned and free to re-
turn to Russia, elect to stay in Siberia.
Thousands of them are prosperous and
happy in that faraWay land today"

Marines WILL GO ASHORE.
American Bluejackets Will Go Ashore
at Venezuelan Port to Protect
Property.
Minister Advises the State Department
that Germans Intend to Land
Force.
Instructions to Commander Of the
Topeka to Land a Force Of
American Marines.

Washington, Aug. 12.-Minister
Bowen, at Caracas, has advised the
state department that the Germans in
tend to land a naval force at Porto
Cabellc to protect German interests
there which are threatened by the up
rising now in progress. The minister
advised that we follow suit After
conference between the officials of the
state and navy departments instruc-
tions were cabled to Commander
Nichols of the Topeka to proceed from
La Guayra to Porto CabelIo and to
land naval force in case of attack.
The Topeka has already left for Porto
Cabello.
The Topeka will probably reach
Porto Cabello, which is only short
sail from La Guayra, in a few hours.
The trouble at Porto Cabello grows out
of the uprising which has convulsed
Venezuela for some time It is direct
ed against President Castro and has
kept the country in state of ferment
for many months.
There appears to be no question as
to the right of the German naval
forces to land for the protection of
German interests. It in no way in
wolves the Monroe doctrine. Germany
has been keeping close watch on Ven
eZuela for some months and at one
time contemplated taking a Venezue-
Ian port in order to compel the pay
ment of certain German claims The
present landing of German force has
no connection with Germany's former
move against Venezuela, although the
assurances heretofore given by Ger
many serve in the present case to
show that there is no ulterior purpose
behind the protection of German inter-
ests at Porto Cabello.
The following instructions were ca
bled to the Topeka:
BE ready to land force in case of
attack of port for protection of Amer
lean interests and for protection of for
eign property also if requested Pre-
vent bombardment without due no.

Homeless and in Need of

Commander McCrea Reports to the

Have Blockaded.

Port au Prince, Hayti, Aug. 12.-The
correspondent Of the Associated Press
has visited Petit Goave and found
that the town has been entirely de-
stroyed, there being nothing left but a
pile of ruins. About 1000 persons are
homeless and greatly in need of as
sistance. The greater number of them
have sought shelter in the Simmonds
factories near the town. The French
cruiser d'Assas arrived at Petit Goave
Sunday with provisions for the suf-
ferers and returned to Port au Prince
with 200 women and children and fif-
teen wounded men. The authorities
refused to permit the Firminists to
leave, fearing they would go to other
points to take up arms again.
Each party accuses the other Of hav-
ing set fire to Petit Goave, but the gen
eral belief is that General Chicoye, the
Frminist commander, resolved to de-
stroy the town when he saw that he
could not hold it against the Fouchard-
lists.
