Unsettled Market Expected.

[Granger Farwell & Co.'S telegram
NEW YORK, March 12.-The news COM
corning the coal strike situation, while not
official, is considered good, and well-in-
formed people say there will be no strike.
The reports were generally believed and
gave strength to the market, which was
counteracted to some extent by the de-
cline In Copper, on which stock sentiment
yet seems to favor lower prices, but the
distance will be less TO go now than when
Ii first started down. Foreign exchange
holds fairly firm in spite of higher money
rates. 1t is doubtful If the market would
stand any further gold exports under pres
ent conditions without some decline in
prices of stocks. Sentiment at the close
seemed TO be that there will be a rather
uncertain market for few days

Daughters of the Confederacy.

KNOXVILLE, Tenn, March 12.-Rev r.
]. Cooke. editor of the Methodist Advocate
Journal, i'm retracting his recent editorial
to which Daughters of the COnfederacy
took offense. says i'm part: 1.-THE editorial
was intended as a criticism on paper read
before one of the chapters of the Daugh-
tiers of the Confederacy, but it was con-
strued as reflection upon it's members 1t
was not so intended. But we acknowledge
that the language used. hastily written
was open 10 such a construction. We sin
cerely regret any such utterance and here
by cancel and retract every word capable
of being so interpreted. We utterly dis
claim any purpose or thought Of comparing
those worthy and noble women of the
South with such creatures as Emma Gold
man or putting them in a class or on a par
with Anarchists

A Dau in the Life of the Mise Boz
LATIN AMERICA ALARMED

ing the origin of the differences be-
tween Venezuela and the allied powers.
But the government and people of Chile
deplore the events which have led the
sister republic into serious situation.
The Chilean government. however. has
decided on complete abstention from
any action. Chile's principle has al
ways been to pay her debts and it is
held here that Venezuela ought to do
the same. At the same time. general
opinion is frankly against The action
of the great powers in treating a weak
country in such a manner.
1t is claimed that the questions in
dispute should be submitted TO arbitra-
ton and it is held that the United
States should intervene in an amicablc
manner.
No Friends in Colombia.
Panama, Colombia, Dec 16.-On ac-
count Of his having helped the Colom-
bian republic revolutionists. President
Castro of Venezuela has no friends in
the Colombian government Influential
members of the government in Panama
side with Venezuela in the present diff
ficulty and hope that the United States
viii not allow Europe to trampIe on
that cOuntry's rights. Were this done,
1t is believed that the future of Latin
America would be endangered. Gov
eminent officials here believe that the
time for the application of the Monroe
doctrine has arrived
Rio Janeiro, Brazil, Dec. 16-The
Brazilian government is absolutely in
different in regard to the Venezuela
troubles. High officials and prominent
men here do not sympathize with Pres
ident Castro.
Up to the time Of sending out these
dispatches the reply of Nicaragua had
not been received.

ONION. Dec. 16.-Judging from
statements given out by the
foreign office, the Venezuelan
situation tonight does not appear
to be any nearer q settlement
Up 10 late hour tonight no
suggestion had been made that Great
Britain could eventually see its way 70
submitting its claim to arbitration ana
the foreign office points out that Ven
ezuela's offer to arbitrate is extremely
vague. President Castro. in the COM
Ynunication in which he expresses his
willingness to resort to arbitration.
provides no guarantee that the rights
of British subjects in Venezuela viii be
respected pending the award. The
foreign Office declares that some mat
tiers are impossible to arbitrate. in
stancing the disrespeetful treatment Of
Mr.. Haggard. British minister to Nen-
ezuela.
To arbitrate the financial claims viii
meet with no opposition in official cir
cles in London, nor is there any desire
TO. stir up opposition by continuing I'M
necessarily the present armed compact
with Germany; but. quoting from the
IS not the slightest inclination to lei
Venezuela go unpublished for her re-
peated insults and injuries. The offer
TO arbitrate comes very late in the day.
We are not seeking a quarrel, but we
must insure ourselves against recur-
renee of the acts which led to the
present situation
The foreign Office appears to be with
, out official cognizance of the attitude of
the Washington government, although
it is convinced unofficially that Wash
fngton is anxious that further HOSTILE
ties be avoided. 1t is known that the
foreign Office has made inquiry as 10
whether the United States would be
willing to guarantee the fulfilling of
Nenezuela's pledges. either at the inn
mediate cessation Of the present Eu-
ropean action or pending the award of
arbitration. This inquiry resulted in
direct negative from the United States.
With the guarantee of the United
States, the foreign Office says, arbitra-
ton in the Venezuelan matter would be
an immediate probability, but with only
the word of a government hitherto I'M
reliable, arbitration is difficult of ac-
cepting. even upon the points where in
ternational relations admit of such
method of settlement.

Anew YORK, Decv. 16.-In reply to
N dispatches addressed to its cor
respondents in the most prom
inent South American and Central
American republics asking for the po-
sition of each government in the Vene
zuela situation, the Associated Press
has received the following replies;
Lima, Peru. Dec 16.-The newspapers
of Peru are in favor of collective ac-
ton in support of Venezuela by all the
South American republics. The Pc
ruvian government, however, is not
disposed TO take any action in the mat
ter. The students of the university
here. at a meeting last night, resolved
to address expressions Of sympathy TO
the students of the University of Cara
cas-
La Paz. Bolivia. Dec. 16.-While the
Bolivian government is not prepared
to take. any steps to assist Venezuela
in the present crisis, the newspapers
of Bolivia express themselves in favor
of Joint action on the part of all the
republics of South America in support
of Venezuela against the allied powers.
No Action Likely.
San Salvador. Salvador, Dec. 16.-The
newspapers here are urging the South
American republics to support Venezue-
la. but the government of Salvador IS
not likely to take any action.
Guayaquil, Ecuador. Dec. 1.-THE
news of the bombardment of the forts
at Puerto CaDello has further excited
the EcuadOrians, who were already
greatly incensed at the sinking of the
Venezuelan warships. More than 5000
Venezuelans paraded the streets last
night carrying the EcuadOrian, Mexican
and various South American flags.
Many patriotic speeches were delivered
in favor Of a Latin-American alliance.
Perfect order prevailed. The govern
ment is not likely TO take any action,
however. The newspapers mere con-
tinue to protest at the action taken by
Germany and Great Britain. They fur
Their assert that the Monroe doctrine is
only used when it suits the United
States to appeal to il.
Buenos Ayres, Argentina Dec To-
The government of Argentina officially
denies that it contemplates interrogation
in the dispute between Venezuela and
the allied powers. The newspapers are
protesting against the action of the
fleets of the allies.
Chile Not Interested.
Santiago, -C8tge. Dee. 16.-Owing TO
the great distance separating the two
countries. little is known here regard
