WILL THE TRUSTS HELP
Talk About the Democratic CAM
paign in 1904-Straws in
New York.

From TH.e journal Bureau. Room h6. Pesa
Building, Warrington.
Washington. Nov. SIT may now be
conceded that Roosevelt will be the NOM
inee of bis party by reclamation, barring
time, and that the trust elements Of the
East. which dislike the record he has
made. will again undertake to assist the
democratic party but on the national in
stead Of the state field. This is a dan
ger which the democracy will have to
consider carefully If it is to be sin
cere in its pronouncenent against the
trusts, and Is to win the confidence Of the
people, it must needs be consistent How
much the trusts contributed to the vote
in greater New York last Tuesday cannot
be definitely stated but their help was
given freely to Coler for all that 1t was
worth. It is assumed, however. that it
did not go beyond cash contributions and
the exertion Of individual influence. The
reunited democracy had more to do with
the outcome than the money Of Wall
street. The. chief democratic danger in
1904 will be the desire of the trusts to
secure the nomination Of some such man
as D. B. HILL who will carry handicap
through the campaign in the suspicion
that he is not at heart for that part of
the national platform which will demand
trust regulation and control. Without
doubt. the eastern democracy will labor
earnestly for the nomination of some such
man.

NO FORCED LOAN
Venezuelans Agree to Let Consul

Washington. Nov. S.-The trip Of the
gunboat Marietta to Barcelona resulted
in a satisfactory settlement of the case
of Vice United States Consul Baiz at that
place. Several days ago Mr.. Baiz COM
planned to Minister Bowen that the Vene-
zuelan government threatened to collect
a. forced loan from him. Mr.. Baiz is a
wealthy man, and although native of st.
Thomas, the Venezuelan rebels set up the
claim that he was a citizen of the country
and attempted to take a loan from him
under duress. Without consulting the
department, Minister Bowen dispatched
the Mariatta to the scene, subsequently
notifying the department of his action.
To-day Commander Diehl reported from
La Guaira, to which place the Marietta
returned yesterday that his case had been
settled satisfactorily and that he would
send particulars by mail. Later the state
department was notified that the guards
had been removed from Mr.. Baiz's house
and official assurances had been given by
the authorities that he would not be mo-
Tested again. The department is we'll
pleased at what it regards the firm and
wise management Of this case by Com
mander Diehl..

Heinze was just short Of a majority; now
