cided that ample notice had been given
and the witnesses were permitted to
testify. One of them said the air in
the mine was coed; that he was not
afraid to complain to the mine inspector
in the presence of the boss, and that he
was not locked, all Of which was dis
comforting to the miners attorneys

ATTITUDE OF UNITED STATES



1t is believed here that this will not
prevent the entry into the port of
American ships, but that if they land
their cargOes, the British and Germans
will insist upon collecting the regular
Venezuelan rate of customs dues upon
them. OF course this will involve the
seizure of the custom house. and it is
further expected that President Castro,
nuless he concludes to abandon further
resistance, will issue decree closing
the port to entries and will insist upon
collecting duties anew upon the same
goods if they are passed into the in
terror of the country beyond La Guaira.
The United States has at present no
warship at La Guiara. The gunboat
Marietta is at Curacao, few hours
distant, in readiness to respond to any
call 1t is said at the navy d. rartment
that it would not be safe for any war
ship to lie off La Guiara at this season,
when the winds set inshore, and there
| is no anchorage until almost on the
beach. It is presumed that the block
aiding fleet must either go alongside
the slip or stand far off shore.
1t was said at the British and Ger
man embassies to-day that the action
of President Castro in ordering the ar
rest of all subjects of the British and
German governments in Caracas was
without precedent in the history of
civilized countries supposedly ct peace
with each other and that such action
would b regarded as sufficient ground
for i declaration OF war. The members

the average earnings of the miner in
1901 to have been $522.6S, and his lab0rer
$449 At. When Mr.. Mitchell was on the
stand he said that $500 should be the
minimum Of American living wages.
Among the visitors at the commits
son's hearings to-day was Michael Da-
witt, the Irish leader. He came from
Washington especially to listen to the
proceedings.
The first half hour of the afternoon
session was consumed in trying to
reach an understanding regarding the
calling of witnesses by both sides. Da-
vid Wilcox, vice-president of and gem
eral counsel for the Delaware and Hud-
son company, did not think that the
miners side should present new wit
nesses after they had closed their case
At the morning session the miners ask
ed the commission to permit them to do
so, if the operators attempted to pile
up cumulative evidence on any partic-
ular phase Of the controversy. Mr.
Wilcox said that little Of the testiTno-
ny so far submitted had anything to do
with the four alleged grievances sub
mitted to the commission. He wanted
to vigorously protest against the Della
ware and Hudson company being held
responsible for conditions that might
prevail at the Coke mines or those of
G. B. Markle & Co.
Chairman Gray interrupted to say
that there was no need for him to pro-
test as it was not the intention of the
commission to hold all companies re-
sponsible for special conditions.
There was further colloquy between
lawyers and the commission over the
presentation Of statistics bearing on
wages, hours, etc, and Chairman Gray
finally said that he hoped the compan-
les would all do their best to present
them as early as they can. The COM
mission, he said, can compel nothing
and the commissioners We're relying
on the good sense and good will Of both
sides to expedite matters.
ut is a peculiar case he said. "as
there are $4,000 plaintiffs"
"Oh, no; not that many" interjected
Mr.. Wilcox.
The entire question, he said, was
largely one Of wages, and the commits
sion desired to study figures while

THE MAJORITY REPORT
snys New Mexico and Arizona Are UNIT
for Statehood.

Washington, Dec. Ex-senator Bever-
idge, chairman of the senate committee
on territories, to-day presented the re-
port of the majority of the committee
against the omnibus bill for the ad-
mission of one state to embrace the
area covered by the two territories Of
Oklahoma and Indian territory. The
admission of New Mexico and Arizona
is opposed on the ground that the pop
ulation in both territories is sparse and
insufficient in numbers, that a vast
majority of the people Of New Mexico
are Spanish descent and speak the
Spanish language only; that many of
the people of both territories are Hitter
ate and do not understand American
associations. The assertion is made
that many of the people do not want
statehood
The report discusses at some length
the abstract question of the necessary
qualifications for statehood and then
takes up the preparedness of the terri
tories under each of the requisites spe-
Gifted
Accepting the unit of representation
rule, which under the census Of 1900 is
194,1S2, it is found that New Mexico,
with 1880 people would come in, but
that Arizona would fall considerably
short Of the requirement. The COM
mittee lays down the general rule that
while no new state should necessarily
be as large in population as any ex-
listing state" it is contended that it
should be large enough to be in some
fair proportion to the population OF the
rest of the republic and it is declared
that 1t would be well if the rule could

Now we refer you to last Sundays New York Herald, page five, column two; there you will read where a lady one night dreamt that Martinique was being totally destroy ed by volcanic eruption and that thou sands upon thousands of human lives were being lost. She then awoke and in the morning informed her husband she must go back to America and gave him her reason. .Bosh." said the hus- band, tits the COFFEE you've been drinking She admitted that, but she was bound on going home She can now thank her stars. for the dream came true and thousands upon thousands have been called to their last home Now. the terrible catas- trophe which has taken place is cer- tain1y an event which is appalling. But this lady having this particular dream which unfortunately came true. and she laying it to drinking coffee, arouses our curiosity regarding coffee. If it's true that coffee was the cause of her finding out what events were to take place we suggest that every one should drink coffee so that you can tell what's going to happen in the near future The kind we sell will make you dream because we have dreams ourselves once in a while and Invariably we strike the nail on the head.
