BERLIN, Dec. 2.-Thr published
statement that Gcrmanys claims
against Venezuela amount 10 ti5.00O.O0O
is. the correspondent of the Associated
Press is officially informed, Incorrect
while the German Government is not
yet ready to publish the details NJ It's
demands, persons who have seen the
papers say the total is about S2,OO0,O0O.
President Castro represents to Ger
many that Venezuela has little credit
abroad: that the country Is just emerg-
ing from civil war during which
planting and Industry were partially
ruined, and that, therefore, no matter
how much Venezuela may desire to sat
isfy Immediately the claims against her,
it is obviously impossible. Hence, an
agreement on the subject must provide
for deferred payments. The seizure of
the custom houses, thereby depriving
the Government OF AN important means
to administer the country, would add to
the internal distress and disorder.
While President Castro's proposals
are not disclosed, there is reason to
believe that they include the emission of
bonds at a moderately high rate of in
terest with some sort of "A guarantee
that If the interest or the installments
Of the principal are defaulted certain
Venezuelan custom houses may be TAX
en- over by Germany.
Nothing is known here Of the plans OF
Isaac y. Seligman of New York for
floating Venezuelan loan. He has
not approached this Government in the
matter.
There is no disposition here to pro-
ceed with harsh measures toward Nene-
zuela If milder ones will suffice to exact
satisfaction, but the German Govern
mcnt is fully committed to the intention
To obtain ample satisfaction. The claim
ants are constantly urging the Govern
ment to press the collection of the
amounts due them, not only because of
the sums involved but, it is represent
ed. in view of the fact that the long
delay has rendered the position of Ger
mans in Venezuela more and more veX-
atious Therefore, it Is claimed, the
Government must strike, and strike
hard. in order to properly assert the
rights of Germans.

WASHINGTON, ID. c., Nov Is
Thanksgiving Day being over. states
men are coming rapidly to the capital
for the session Of Congress which be-
gins next Monday. Most of those Of
Hawaiian interest are already in town.
Senator Foster, Of Washington state,
arrived "A few days ago and has been
talking with Senators Mitchell and Bur
ton about the Hawaiian investigation
Of last summer. Ex-Queen Liliuoka-
lani, mentioned in my last letter as on
the way from Chicago, is now at the
ibbtt House where she Is occupying
the same apartments as she had last
winter before she moved into "A private
residence. with her are Myra Hele-
luhe and John ID. Aimoku.
Mr. John r. McCrosson, who was
here all of last winter in behalf of the
Eohala Ditch bill, has returned and
Joined his wife and daughter at the
Congressional hotel. Neither Delegate
Wilcox nor Mr.. Pratt have yet put in
an appearance, although it is under
stood here that both will come at an
early day.
QUEEN HAS NO CHANCE.
The word has gone round that the
Queens claim will be introduced be-
fore the present Congress at an early
day. 1t is safe statement apparently
that nothing can be done to advance it
materially at this session of Congress,
Notwithstanding the employment of the
services of a legislative expert to push
1t along. Thus far the Interior De-
partment has not been conferred with
at all, whereas the usual routine H. that
bills affecting the Territory of Hawaii
IN any fashion shall be referred to the
Interior Department and by the Secre-
tary of the Interior referred to Govern
or Dole for recommendation and report.
II is quite sure that that plan will have
to be followed regarding the Queens
claim. II so the bill can hardly be sent
out TO Honolulu and get back here with
Governor Dole's recommendation in
time for any action at this session OF
Congress.

COINAGE BILL.

While there is almost no hope for get
ting much legislation through at a
short session Of Congress, the outlook
is regarded as bright for the coinage
bill, which has passed the Senate. The
Secretary Of the Treasury, Mr.. Shaw, at
the request of Mr. William Haywood.
will forward to Congress. soon after the
session begins, an earnest recommended
tion that the House deal with the sub
ject at this session. That will give a
good foundation for asking a special

time Mr.. Haywood will seek to have it
brought up on a call of committees.

REPORT ON HAWAII.
The annual report of the Secretary Of
the Interior, Mr.. Hitchcock, includes
several printed pages on Hawaii. He
reviews in brief the report presented by
Governor Dole and incorporates the
Governors recommendation as to leg
islation. The Department has recently
been advised by formal notice of the
defalcatiOns of Hawaiian officials but
there is nothing to be done regarding
it at this end. The additional recon-
mendatiOn of Governor Dole, inserted
In the proof Of his annual report, which
was sent back to Honolulu for correc-
tion, is Of interest in the light of this
defalcation. The last recommendation
by Governor Dole is:
THAT Section so of the act to provide
government for the Territory of Ha-
wall be amended so that the Governor
may suspend any officer in regard to
the removal of whom the advice and
consent of the Senate is necessary, un-
Il! the next succeeding session of the
Senate, and may, except in case of
the auditor, appoint person to fill the
office in question pro tempore until the
matter of the removal of the suspended
officer is settled, or may remove any of
such officers. That the tenure of office
of Inspectors of Election be fixed at
two years instead of four, as now pro-
Nided by the organic act, section so. a11
that the Governor be empowered to ie-
move them from office at his d.s-
crctiOn,"

els hospital Sunday at 7.S5 p. m. Thurs
day evening while at home he was seized

Herbert Reese was so completely a boy,
so full Of the play the thoughts, the i'm

old loved him because his Whole-souled
boyish ways brought fresh to their men,

was contagious. because his leadership

But no one can measure the love his
