De Constant Says The Hague Coven-
 ant is Being Ignored.

Paris. Dec. 25.-Baron d'Estournelles de Constant has written to Foreign Minister Delcasse notifying him that the writer will interpellate the Government on the Ieassembling of the Chamber concerning he disregard of Article 2 of The Hague convention shown by the allied powers in loercing Venezuela.
 In his letter, Baron d'Estournelles Itrongly supports the contention of tho United States that the Venezuelan ques- lion should be referred to The Hague sourt. After pointing out that the pres Int is just the contingency contemplated by Article 27 the writer says r
 The conflict rests between Venezuela md several of the signatories to The Hague convention and the formal oblga- hon that France and the twenty-five other powers signed Is not only being ignored. put we observe a systematic interdiction If The Hague court of arbitration by the European Governments. An explanation las become necessary. It cannot be ex- Dected by the powers that Venezuela take 10 part in the conference and as she is Isking for arbitration. no occasion exists lor reminding the powers of the obliga- ions they signed and ratified. Nor can the reply be made that States, unlike in lividuals. are free not to observe their engagements and that moral obligations yxist only for individuals or for the weak, IS this point of view is precisely contrary O the principle that The Hague confer nce sought to secure"

DIR. LoRENz HAS NOT GOTTEN
 RICH IN AMERICA.
Says He Makes as Much in Vienna in the Same Length of Time. Glad He Came
 Here.

New York, Dec 2s.-Dr. Adolph Lorenz, who returned to this city from Boston today while discussing his visit to this country said in an interview tonight:
 There is one thing I want to say and that is in regard to finance. I see it re- puted that have made in this country $16O,O00. Now as a matter of fact I got one fee of sSO. 600 in Chicago and in the four months I have been here I have earned just thirty thousand dollars. My practice at home in four months is worth that.
 True, I have seen a number of private patients in each of the cities l visited, but as you Americans say. in no in stance have they more than paid the freight As matter of fact 1t has been the physicians of the various cities who have profited by my visits. They are my colleagues and I am glad they did. but you see 1 only remained two, three, four or perhaps five days. During that time I was working in the hospitals. in the clinics The private patients began to come in and they were operated upon by the local surgeons who had witnessed my clinics. But l am glad l came. The trip has been the crowning success or my life. My trip here has been success ful ethically but not materially"
 Dr. Lorenz spoke gratefully of the hos pitality he had received at the hands Of the Americans.

RESULT OF SUPERSTITION
Objected to Man Being Buried
 on Their Island.
They Thought It Necessary to Kill the Whites in Order to Pre- vent More Deaths from
 Occurring.

Victoria, B. C., Dec. &.-The steamer Mona from Australia today brought news of an attack on the recruiting schooner Lilly by the natives of Mallicolo. in the New Hebrides.
 They murdered Captain Henry Amos Atkinson. a Britisher. and wounded two of the Lilly's crew.
 The schooner was engaged in taking home natives who had been employed In New Caledonia by French planters. One of those consigned to Mellicolo died when near their and Captain Atkinson decided to bury the body ashore instead of at sea. When Captain Atkinson landed he was rushed upon and his rife taken by the blacks. He was then shot and killed with his own rife.
 Some of the native crew tried to save the dead captains body. but the natives who were just landed aided those ashore and the crew fled, two of them being wounded as they swan back to the schooner. The attack was the result Of superstition attached to the burying of the dead body, the natives believing 1t necessary to kill the whites to prevent further deaths from occurring among them.
 The schooner Pearl was attacked on this island few days later. She called at Espigle Bay, another part of the island, to land natives when she was fired upon and several of the native crew ware wounded

 Springs Explosiion.

Hot Springs. Ark, Dec. 25.-An inquest was held over the remains of William Helwig, the first person to die as the result of injuries received in the Turf Exchange explosion and 1t developed that the officers are going to make thorough examination into the alleged carelessness that was responsible for the disaster.
 Officers were stationed about the wreck at once after the explosion and they have kept all persons away since Today two men arrived from Little Rock and want ed the privilege of taking out some pipes from the wreck but Mayor Bedding re- fused the request, stating that he would noA allow anything to be done until rep- resentatives of the oil company. the light company and the prosecuting attorney could go over the scene together. The final verdict of the inquest was post poned until witnesses could arrive from Little Rock. Ben Murray. driver of the oil wagon is still held in custody.
 R. c. Chambers, who was badly man gled in the wreck. is a little better but physicians in attendance do not ofrer en- couragement. Besides the fractured arms and left leg there are several bruises about the body and hips that have made much trouble in handling the case.
 Dan Kinney and Joe Face, local hotel are both still in a critical con- dition and are not expected to survive Both lost two legs in the disaster.

Professses to Desire the Overthrow of the Sultan Because of his Friend ship for the European
 PoWera

London, Dec. 25.-The correspondent of The Times at Fez, Morocco. describes the situation there as having become very serious owing to 8 large increase in the number of the Pretender's followers whom the government troops are too weak to attack. Reinforcements amount ing to 12.OOo men. he says. will leave here tomorrow and an additional force of irregular cavalry has been called out.
 Many tribes not already in rebellion are wavertng and are ready to join the rebels in the event of a serious government de- feat
 The Pretender is fully supplied with every necessity and has distributed his forces over a district where they can be either collected or dispersed very quickly.
 The Times correspondent adds that the Pretender's position Is a very strong one. He professes not to claim the throne for himself, but to desire to overthrow the Sultan on account of his European ten- dencies and if successful the Pretender proposes that the rebels shall nominate a new Sultan from some shereefiian fami- ly who would promise to continue the war against the Christians.

King and Queen Spend the Day at
 Sandringham.
 London, Dec. 25.-King Edward and Queen Alexandra spent the day at San- dringham. Ihis being the first Christmas their matesties have spent at their favorite residence since their accession.
 The royal family, including the Prince and Princess of Wales, Princes Victoria. the Duchess of Fife and Prince and Princess Charles of Denmark attended an early service at SandIfngham church. which was beautifully decorated. The King afterwards personally directed the annual distribution of beef and game to the employees and tenants on the San dringham estate.
 London and the south of England gen. orally enjoyed an unusually clear and cold Christmas. In spite of the low temperature there was the usual gather ing In Battersea Park where twenty men who take their open air early morning dip all the year round, had their Christ mas swim in the lake.
 Silver medals were presented to seven among the bathers who had not missed a single day during the previous year.
 The prevailing distress among the un- employed brought forth an unusual num- Der of charitable dinners in all sections of London, especially in the East End.
 A severe gale swept the north coast of Great Britain today and caused con- siderable damage to shipping and water front property on the Clyde and the Tyne.

MUST CALL OFF BLOCKADE.
United States will Probably Insist
 Upon This.

Upon This.
 Washington. Dec. 25.-No confirmation could be obtained in Washington tonight of the report coming from Caracas that the proposition had been made to Presi- dent Castro that all pending differences between Venezuela and the European Governments having claims against her be submitted to arbitration of The Hague tribunal. Secretary Hay had retired when the dispatch reached Washington, and no other official of the State Department was able to give any information on the sub ject.i .
 It is known. that only two days ago Pres ident Roosevelt had not determined whether or not to accept the proposal of the allies to act as arbitrator or to urge again that the question should go to The Hague. If. as stated, the suggestion has come from Washington that the matter should be arbitrated at The Hague. that conclusion probably was reached at the long conference the President had with Secretary Hay yesterday afternoon when the two off1cials were together for some time. considering the proposal from the allies that the President take up the Qiies- tion of arbitration. The dispatch to the President through Minister Bowen sug- eesting arbitration at The Hague must have followed that conference. The ofii-
 
 anything on the subject since the receipt of the proposal from the allies or even to give out anything bearing on the terms of that, proposal. The impression here tonight is that an early determination of the matter will be reached.
 No matter by whom the matter is ar bitrated. the feeling here is strong that the United States government. if the oc- casion arises. will insist that the exist Ing blockade be called off while the ar- bitration is in progress. The presence of the blockade fleet along the venezu- elan coast Is sure to be a menace to peaceful conditions and dif1culties of various kinds may arise at any time through the arbitary action of some of the commanders of the ships of the al- lied fleet or to the intrepedity of some Ikipper who may attempt to run the blockade. But the greatest objection to ! continuance of blockade pending ar bitration will be the loss to American shipping interests which this govern ment does not believe should be tolerated.

NEW LINE OUT OF DENVER.
Texas Pacific and Denver 6 Rio
 Grands to Be Joined.

Denver, Colo, Dec. 6.-The Times says:
 The announcement comes from an ap- parently authoritative source that the branch of the Texas and Pacific Railroad from Weatherford, Tex. to Mineral Wells Tex, is to be extended to Trinidad, Colo. where connection will be made with tho Denver and Rio Grande Railroad. thus giving Denver another direct road into Texas and the South. It also says that the Denver and Rio Grande will expend something like two million dollars inn proving its roadbed between Denver and Pueblo in contemplation of increased traf- fc as a result of the new extension of the Texas and Pacific.
 ''The road from Weatherford to Trini- dad will be 450 miles lorg and will form link which will give the Gould system it's own road from New Orleans to Ogden Utah. It will form an outlet from the Northern Pacific coast to the leading Gulf shipping points. and give the Gould sys- tenn new connection of its own in the West. It will also be the following out of MT. Gould's policy of making himself independent of the Hawley- Hartman in- terests in the event of an extension of their fight, as it will be a parallel road for MT. Hawley's Colorado and Southern Texas road.'
