Silver Question in Mexico.

Mexico City, Dec. 15.-The silver
question continue to be one of the
great topics of public discussion. 1t
is now certain that the silver miners
and farming classes will make COM
mon cause against the adoption of the
gold standard. The miners argue that
silver mines in gold standard coun-
tries will have to shut down at the
present price of silver, while Mexican
mines can continue to be operated,
also that silver mining and agriculture
are interests with more claim on the
protection of the government than
railroads or merchants. Meantime all
prices are being raised and there is
much anxietey among the middle
classes, especially wage earners and
salaried men. The cost of living is
considered to be out Of proportion to
incomes.

TRIED TO ESCAPE
FROM CANON CITY

Denver, Dec. 13.-A News special
from Canon City says:
Five convicts made a desperate at
tempt to escape from the penitentiary
this morning but We're frustrated by
the vigilance of Night Captain Emile
Stockdorf The prisoners implicated
are James Armstrong, Harry Russell,
Frank ("Kid'D Wallace. |. F. Din

liberating themselves from their cells,
and by using a key in their possession

convicted of murder at Antonito, and
committed to the penitentiary yester-
day, to join them. The bar to the rear
window of the cell house was then
sawed away. and Armstrong essayed
to drop to the ground, but the hole
being smaller than he had calculated,
he was caught and was unable to ell
ther lower himself or crawl back into
the cell house, and it was in this posi-
ton, suspended between the caves and
the ground, that the night captain dis
covered him.
One of the ironclad rules at the pen
itentiary since Capt. William Rooney
was killed, is that all cell house keep
ers must ring in to the night captains
office every half-hour. Palmer's fail
ure to observe this rule caused Stock
dorf to take alarm, and he went to in
vestigate. Without taking any chances
of meeting the fate of Rooney, Stock
dorf turned in an emergency call to
Deputy Warden Burkhart, who re-
sponded promptly with two dozen
armed guards.
The prisoners who sought to escape
were soon cornered. and with the ex-
ception of Armstrong returned to
their cells without remonstrance.
Armstrong, however, showed fight,
and was forced into his cell, where he
was kept until about s O'Clock, when
severe chastisement was admins
tered.

when she resided with her daughter

also made several visits to her sons in

She was of domestic temperament, and

committee of the merchants of
Puerto Cabello then approached the
American consul here, petitioning him
to intervene. The consul accepted this
mission and visited the cruisers, but
he could obtain no alteration in the
decision of the allies.
AT n quarter before a reply was
received from President Castro, who
authorized the chief official here to
give the British commodore ample sat
isfaction. Before this answer could be
communicated to the American consul
the hour stipulated for the reply ar
rived. The cruisers Immediately
opened fire on the fortress. The fire
was returned from Fort Solano and
Castle Libertador, but the Venezuelan
guns were soon silenced. While the
firing continued there was intense ex-
citement in this port. Every house in
town was closed.
The people of Puerto Cabello cannot
account for this precipitate action on
the part of the allies, which they con-
slider to be proof that Great Britain
and Germany intend forcing war upon
Venezuela.
The British marines propose to
make use of the cannon in Castle Lib
ertador. No damage was done to the
town. The excitement of the people
is subsiding.

cruiser Vineta bombarded the fortress
here at 5 o'clock yesterday afternoon

fortress is composed of Fort Solano
and the Castle Libertador. After the
firing ceased the Charybdis sent ma
rines to occupy the castle.
The fortress was almost demolished.
1t is probable that only a few persons
were injured by the shelling. The COM
mander of Castle Libertador has been
taken prisoner. The cruisers are still
here.
At I o'clock yesterday morning the
Charybdis and the Vineta arrived here
searching for Venezuelan gunboats.
The two cruisers sent their boats in
to the inner port, but finding no gun
boats, the boats returned. The cap
tain of the British merchant steamer

last Wednesday, then visited the Brit

returned an hour later with a detach-
ment of fifty marines, who took charge
of the Topaz. The populace was great
ly excited at this incident and raised
the cry ito arms" but there was no

The British commodore then sent
message to the authorities at Puerto
