CASTRO WILL PAY UP
PROMISES TO SETTLE HIS EU-
 ROPEAN DEBTS.
Venezuela Becomes Aware That the United States Will Not Stand
 in the Way of Germany
 and Great Britain.

Berlin. Dec l.-President Castro. of Venezuela, handed, probably on Thurs day last, a written acceptance of part of Germany's claims, sufficiently comprehen- sive to delay the presentation of joint ultimatum by Germany and Great Brit ain, if not rendering 1t altogether unnec- sary. It Is also understood that Great Britain's demands will be satisfied.
 Foreign Secretary Won Richthofen and British Foreign Secretary Lord Lans- downe, are now in correspondence over Venezuela's change of front. This Gov ernment considers that peaceful settle ment of the questions In dispute Is quite a problem and attributes President Cas- tro's yielding to the fact that he has be- come aware that the United States would not interpose any obstacle to the forcible collection of the claims of Germany and Great Britain.
 President Castro tried every means to keep Great Britain and Germany apart in discussing the settlements, intimating or promising first one thing and then an- other Germany being entered into a general agreement with Great Britain to exact a settlement jointly, will not make a separate agreement. Consequently, the two powers may yet conclude 1t neces- sary to disregard President Castro's quail flied offers and present an ultimatum to Venezuela. The German cruisers Anna zone, Ariadne and Niobe continue fitting out at Kiel for prolonged absence.
 The cruisers will be sent to tho West Indies irrespective of the Venezuela af- fair. hence 1t is believed they will sail even though President Castro may yield. It is understood the squadron will touch at the Azores and thence go to St. Thom- as. where 1t will receive Commodore Scheder's instructions. This is the com modore's first command promising action beyond routine sea duties. He is reputed to be a cool, sensible man who will do nothing hastily.
 Castro Summons Bowen
 Caracas, Dec. 1.-President Castro has twice sent for United States Minister Bowen during the last few days and has had prolonged interviews with him at which the Minister of Foreign Affairs was present
 Holleben Sees Hill.
 Washington, Dec. 1.-Mr. von Hollen- ben. the German Ambassador. called on Acting Secretary of State Hill today to discuss Venezuelan matters. The Am bassAdor has as yet no word of the set clement reported to have been effected between his government and President Castro of their financial differences.

GALEON LAKE SUPERIOR
MANY CRAFT MEET WITH
 GREAT DAMAGE.
WITH
Steamer Charles Hebard Dashed on Rocks and It is Believed Her Crew of Fourteen Lost
 Their Lives.

Sault Ste Marie. Mich, Dec. l-In the terrible west gale on Lake Superior Sat urday night the steamer Charles Hebard was driven on the rocky shore at Point Mamainse and was soon dashed to pieces by the seas. Her crew, consisting of thir- teen men and a woman cook, have not been heard from and 1t Is feared all have perished.
 The schooner AIona, one of the consorts which the Hebard had in tow, broke away from the steamer in Lake Superior and has not been heard from since. Lit tie ,hope is entertained for her safety. The sohooners Warrington and Fran comb the other vessels of the tow ran before the gale after breaking away from the steamer and finally succeeded in reaching an anchorage at Copper Mine Point.
 The four boats had loaded lumber at west Superior and were bound for Lake Erie ports. When in the middle of Lake Superior Saturday night they were struck by the gale and soon after the Aloha, the rear vessel of the tow. passed her tow line and went adrift. When last seen she was rolling in the trough. with none of her canvas set. The remaining two consorts either broke away or were set adrift soon afterward.
 Before daylight Sunday morning the Francomb reached Copper Mine Point at the east end of the Lake. When day dawned the wreck of the Hebard was discovered on the shore short distance with only the srnokestask and pilot house etickin9 out of the water. but bv S:3o o'clock everything had disappeared and the ship and cargo was being strewn along the beach by the breakers.
 As the shore at that point Is very rug 1ed and rocky. 1t is feared that even If the crew had attempted to leave the steamer when she struck her boat must have been dashed to pieces.

WANTED TO HOLD ON
A COUNTY SUPERINTENDENT
 THREATENED TO TROUBLE DEPARTMENT
Wrote Department of Education That They Had Been Advised They Could Keep ofice Until
 October 1, 1908.

That part of the new Constitution whicn changed the election of County Superintendents from August to November without stating den- nitely when their terms of office begins at one time threatened trouble to the Department of Education.
 The trouble was threatened by three or Sur County superintendents who showed an incii- nation to hold on to their offices until Oetooer
 Ist 1908 The new Constitution made the County Superintendents elective with otner State and county officers early In Novemoer
 Under the statutes the terms of onice or tne County Superintendents begins the hrst of October following their election. The statute
 was adopted when the County Superintendents
 were elected in August
 By literal interpretation of the statutes some of the County Superintendents showed disincllnation to turn over their office to tncir
 successor when he had been elected and had qualified. The County Superntendents did not take their stand upon a literal interpretation of the law and defy the Department of Educa- tion. but for awhile it looked as If one or two of them would take that course One County Superintendent in Alabama only turned over his office to his legally elected and qualified | successor yesterday. but with his action passed away the danger of fight between the De partment of Education and the County su- perintendents.
 The few superintendents who were inclined | to take advantage of the variance between the Constitution and the statutes wrote to Super | intendent Gunnels personal letters in which ! they said that they had been advised that they | could hold their office until Oct lst. 1905 | He wrote personal letters to them advising | that they turn over their offices to their le' | gally elected successors soon as they had | qualified.
 So serious did the matter become that Su perintendent Gunnels obtained an opinion from Attorney General Brown, in which he wa. informed that he could. after waiting req | sonable length of time for County superin | tendent to turn over hin office. declare tn, | place vacant and appoint his successor Mir | Brown cited the action taken in the Kolb-Lan'
 contest in support of his opinion.
 After waiting nearly thirty days, the las
 County Superintendent withdrew from the DO
 sition that he could if he cared to do so hold on to his office. and the threatened | trouble blew

WORK ON NEW DEFENDER.
She Will Carry More Canvas Than
 Anv Other Single Sticker,

Bristol R. l., Dec. l.-To all outward ap- pearance the new America's cup defender will not differ in any great degree of any of the ntnety-footers turned out by the Hereshons during the past ten years. She will have the same spoon bow, the same long overhanging aft and the same modified fin keel She VI be slightly broader. however. than the Con stitution, which has a beam of 25 feet 2h inches, Her keel also will be longer and heavier than the Belmont boat. but at the same time she will not draw so much water by some inches
 This increase in weight will enable her to carry a larger sail spread. something in the neighborhood of iI5, 900 square feet, which is the largest amount of canvas ever swung aioft by a single sticker. The workmen today re- moved the balance of timbers and clay about the lead keel and tomorrow the carpenters will commence smoothing the outer part of the lead in preparation for the fitting of the plates.
 The after end of the lead keel appears to bs some two feet longer than the forward end.
