CORN CORNER SMASHED.
December Option Makes a Drop Of
Over Five Cents, ~ lN

Chicago, Dec. 1S.-The attempted
corner. of the December corn market.
under the leadership of the st. Louis
blind pool" went to smash when the
price of that commodity made a drop
of over 5 cents on the board of trade
during the day. The opening was 1
cent lower than the previous days
close, the first sales being made at 52
to 52A cents, and, on heavy liqui6a-
ton with no support to speak of, the
price gradually declined, with now and
then slight rally, until 47A was
reached. "
The interest of the majority of
traders was ccntered in the corn pit
and considerable excitement reignel
throughout the session. AS a result
of the bad break the interests that
have been operating on the board fcc
the st. Louis clique were unable to ps t
up margins fast enough, and were sold
out in order to even their accounts.
1t is not known how much corn the
st. Louis people held, but they have
been active on the buying side of the
market for some time past and their
original holdings are supposed to havo
been anywhere from five to ten millic1
bushels.
w. W.. McClea1y & Co., a board OF
trade firm representing the St. Lou
blind pool" which attempted to cor
ner December corn, have suspended.
Notice to close out all trades for Their.
account was posted in the board at the
close of the days business.

REQUESTED TO EXPLAIN.
Germany Must Tell What Is Meant by
Peaceful Blockade.

New York, Dec. 18.-Secretary Hay
has cabled to Ambassador Tower at
Berlin, says the World correspondent
at Washington, to ask the German gov
ernment to define for this country ex.
actly what is meant by a peaceful
blockade" The dispatch was couched
in the suavest of diplomatic language,
but it was insistent that Germany
should reply.
This inquiry was decided upon at
the cabinet meeting, where it was dis
cussed fully. .
Although it has not yet been put
into public expression this govern
ment contends that there is no such
thing as a peaceful blockade"
If state of war does not exist this
government will contend, at the proper
time, that Urited States ships must
be allowed to pass. .
The test will come when the Red
s d line steamer Caracas arrives at La
Guayra, probably next Saturday. r.
that ship goes through, as it is expect,
ed it will. other ships from other ma.
tions will also demand to go through
and the peaceful blockade" will be.
come a farce.
II Germany insists on its right to
1 blockade peaceabIy and refuses to let
American ships through then ADMIR-
Dewey's fleet will be sent to Venezuela
to convey the American ships through
the German and English lines.

As VIEWED IN LONDON.
Further Details Regarding England's
Intentions as to Venezuelan
Troubles.
No Peaceful Blockade" and Vessels
Of All Powers to be Treated
Alike, Says Balfour.
England Not YET Ready to Say
Whether Arbitration Proposed
is Accepted

London, Dec 18.-In the course OF
a long statement in the house Of COM
mons Premier Balfour said there was
no such thing as pacific blockade
A state of war actually existed with
Venezuela and an intimation of the
blockade would shortly be given to the
powers.
Mr. Balfour added that the blockade
would be carried out with as little in
convenience to trials as possible.
Nothing definite occurred with
since his previous statement on the
subject.
The premier also said the operations
were reluctantly undertaken, not to
recover debts, but after long and pa
tient delay, to recover compensation
| for assaults on British subjects and
the seizure of British vessels. He be-
lieved that the Germans also had
claims besides the financial ones.
Mr.. Healey, Irish Nationalist, asked
If the United States assented to a
blockade which would exclude United
States vessels. Mr.. Balfour replied:
'Neutrals are not consulted when
you are in a state of war with a third
party"
''1s war declared?'' asked Mr..
Healey.
The premier replied: Does the
1 honorable member suppose that with
out a state OF war you can take YES
sells and have blockade.
| Questioned by Liberal Leaders.
Mr.. Ralfour's statement was made in
reply to the desire of the Liberal lead
er, Sir Henry Campbell-Bannerman
for information on the Venezuelan sit
uation. After reiterating Lord Lans-
downe's brief statement in the house
of lords the premier continued:
"The blockade will be carried out by
Great Britain and Germany along diff
ferent portions of the coast, and
though the two fleets will have the
same object they will not act as one
force: We never had any intention of
landing troops in Venezuela or of oc-
cupying territory even temporarily.
We do not think it desirable on either
military or other grounds. All the con-
ditlons governing such a blockade
have been carefully considered and
will be published in due time for the
information of neutrals. The govern
ment is most anxious that these oper-
ations, the necessity for which we
deeply regret, should be as little in
convenient to neutrals as they can
possibly be made. No difference will
be made between the vessels of the
various neutral powers. 1 think it is
quite likely that the United States will
think that there cannot be such
thing as pacific blockade and 1,
1 personally, take the same view Ev-
identity a blockade involves a state of
war"
Replying to further questions Mr..
Balfour said he had nothing to add re-
garding arbitration beyond what was
contained in his previous statement
on the subject. Papers were being pre-
pared and would be presented to the
house as soon as possible. He as
sumed they would include the COM
munications which had passed on the
subject of the blockade between the
United States and Great Britain.

DENIED BY THE MINERS.
Wages Of Certain Men the Subject Of
Dispute.

Scranton, Pa. Dec. 18.-The miners
coal strike commission the fathers OF
two of the little girls who had testi-
fed on Monday that they worked all
night in silk mills.
The operators submitted wage
statements showing that one of these
men and his laborer received $1,661
and the other and his laborer were
paid S1,400 last year. John Demko.
father of one of the girls, said that
four and some times six men figures in
the division of the S1,400. The other
miner claimed that four men divided
the 81 ,661. N
Everett Warren, one of the oper-
ators attorneys, on cross ss-examination,
tried to show that this was not the
case. Both men promised to take the
girls out of the silk mill.
After the witnesses left the stand
Chairman Gray asked for an explapa-
tion from the Pennsylvania Coal COM
pany, which is controlled by the Erie
road. regarding the wages of the men.
The wages mentioned by the company
were handed to the commission sore
days age and did not indicate that
more than two persons figured in the
distribution
w. A. May, general manager of the
Pennsylvania Coal company, was
called to the witness stand and ex-
planned that because of the system in
vogue in the company's mine it would
be difficult to show in every case how
many men shared in one pay
c. S. Darrow, for the miners. said
the miners had no confidence in the fig.
ures submitted by the company, and
added that the way they were handed
in was unfair.
The state mine inspectors then were
called. They were unanimous in say
ing that the mining companies in theil
district had no rules requiring min
| ers to stay in the mines all day One
| inspector said the miners in his dis
trict did not average five hours worl
q day.

DENIED AT BERLIN,
Germany Has No Intention of Seizina
" Margarita Island. -,

Berlin, Dec. 1S.-The foreign Office
here denies explicitly that the Ger
man squadron in Venezuelan waters
has orders to seize Margarita island,
adding that no occupation of the ter
ritory of Venezuela will occur
The foreign Office officials allege that
systematic effort is apparently be-
ing made to represent Germany as the
propel1ing power in the coercion of
Venezuela and as being responsible
for ali the harsh measures For in
stance, they say, the bombardment OF
the forts at Puerto Cabello is ascribei
to German initiative, whereas, the Of
ficials say without reservation, that
the bombardment was at the British
commanders suggestion, the Topaze
being a British ship. The German
commander participated in the firing
as loyal ally.
The German government is not i'll
sisting on more severe measures than
the original plan contemplated and re-
CARDS the sinking of the two dimin-
utive, wholly unseaworthy craft" as
an insignificant incident -
Germany and Great Britain are still
considering President Castro's arbitra.
tion proposition but the deliberations
have not yet reached stage where
the results can be published.

statement that the German cruisers
Ariadne, Amazon and Niobe are again
being equipped for departure to Vene-
zuela.

Castro has clothed Minister Bowen
with full powers to effect settlement
with Great Britain, Germany and Italy.
Mr.. Bowen simply awaits the consent
CT the state department to assume the
task, assuming the nations named are
willing he shall undertake this work.
II is believed the critical phase of the
Venezuelan trouble is passed.
Washington, Dec. 18.-The officials
here have come to the conclusion that
the projected peaceful blockade of
Venezuelan ports cannot be recognized
as against United States shipping at
least. II the allies seek to exclude
Venezuelan shipping from entry to
Venezuelan ports that might be per-
mitted but they cannot exclude Unit
ed States ships in regular business un-
less a genuine state of war is recog-
nized. Regardless of the merits of the
present controversy the state depart
ment feels that the vast interests of
American trade demand that this rule
be adopted and adhered to else Amer
lean trade might be crippled. at the
will of any naval power that sought
to resort to the anomalous peaceful
blockade" If Great Britain and Ger
many wish to exclude American mer-
chantmen from Venezuelan ports
they must exclude all shipping, includ-
ing their own, a condition which can
only be met, by recognizing the exist
ence of state of war. s
Senor Ojeda, the Spanish minister,
and Baron Moncheur, the Belgium
minister, have not received official ad-
vices relative to the joint notes their
governments have addressed to Presi-
of settlement of the claims Of the al
en- similar treatment.
Spain May Go No Further. WY
The Spanish minister denies that
there is the slightest probability of
further action on the part of Spain un
less events in Caracas make it neces'
sary for the Spanish representative to
withdraw. Minister Ojeda does not
anticipate this in view of the strong
ties Of friendship that exist between
his government and the South Ameri-
can republics. Baron Mencheur re-
CARDS the position of his country as
thus far neutral but in case circun-
stances change this attitude it is likely
that Minister Bowen will be requested
to look after Belgian interests in the
Venezuelan capital. Belgium having
no navy it will not be possible for that
country to join in the naval demon
stration of the allied feet.
Mr. Bowen's position is realized to
be one of extraordinary difficulty He
is now in charge Of the. interests Of
Great Britain, Germany, Italy and Hol.
land, besides those of the United
States, and may be called upon to take
charge of those of the remainder of
the European countries, with the pos.
sible exception of France, which re.
mains on pleasant relations with Vene.

y He did not think Hlibbs had lived
over three or foua. minutes after re-

He stated also that had he been at the,

and other conditions might have helped
him to indicate the direction from
which the blow came.
3 He was then asked as to whether he
testified voluntarily and for pay and
stated chat he did. A question as to
the amount he received was resisted
strenuously by Mn. Nye and resulted in
argument. States Attorney Allen con-
tended THAT he had right to show the
interest of the witness in the case.
MI. Nye said that it was competent to
show that the witness testified for a
fee, but not competent to show the.
amount. The question was finally al,
lowed, and the witness stated he had
agreed to come for: a day or so for $3.50,
but that he had staid longer than that
and intended to charge more. He
was employed by Mr.. Register.

BOYS HURT UNFINISHED.
Winston Fleming Discharged for Injury Dons
TO iunton Stage.

Through the failure Of the prosecution
Ing or reclllessncss on the part of Win
ston Fleming, Fleming was dismissed in
Police Court yesterday on the charge of
having carelessly run down and injured
little Eunton Stage, in Franklin Street.
This was in last November. The boy
was so injured that it was necessary to
1rcphine his skull. and It was stated in
court that now Il is possible to watch the
puisa eion;; - his oraiu through the thin
covering which protects IL. The hole
made was scout as large as Il dollar.
M Lu;tis .. Wendenhurg appeared for
the prosecution, and Mr.. Edwin p Cox
sppeared for the defence. Several wit
,1esseS were examined, ana the fact was
shown positively that at the moment the
child was seen by the driver he was di-
,ectly under the horses hoofs; that he
had apparently run out there, and that
,i,ere was no possibility of the horse be-
ing stopped OK turned III time to save
him
In his summing up MIR. Wendenburg de-
c,ared that the offense was one which
Al was not possible to punish properly
under the present laws. The childs tu-
ts,re life, he declared, had been ruined by
the neSro's carelessness. On the
evidence. however, Justice Crutchfield
said there was nothing which would war
rant him in Furnishing the driver, and
he was allowed 10 so.
