If Great Britain accepts arbitration of
the Venezuelan case by United States Min
lister Bowen she will have changed her
views since 1895. In that year occurred
1.-The Bluefields incident" The British con-
suIar agent having been expelled from
Buefields, Nicaragua, and some British
subjects having been arrested and impris-
oned, the British government made a per-
emptory demand on Nicaragua for repara-
ton. The demand was followed by an
ultimatum and backed up by naval DEM
onstraticn. Great Britain demanded an
apology and $4,000 damages, and sent war
ships to enforce it. She gave the United
States positive assurances that she had
no intention of seizing or holding Nicara-
guam territory. She expressed willingness
TO have the amount of damages assessed
by a commission TO be composed of Brit
ish representative, Nicaraguan repre-
sentative and "A jurist mot citizen of any
American state TO be selected BY agree

governments and that falling, by the Pres.

Under decision of the Supreme Court of
Illinois that church property not used for
church purposes is taxable. the assessors
OF Cook county are preparing to levy taxes
on several million dollars worth of such
property In Chicago which is now used for
parish residences. halls. stores. etc. The
policy of exempting church property used
for purposes of wor, hip can be defended
on principle, but the exemption should not
extend TO property owned by churches and
used for secular purposes.

1t is safe to say that before the final
settlement OF the troubles Of Venezuela
the people OF that unfortunate country will
change their views about the ''medlesome
interference with the concerns of other
countries" proposed in the Monroe doctrine.
They will find In the end that the hated
guardianship of the Yankee nation was
the one thing which prevented the conquest
of their country and the division OF It's soil
between two monarchies OF Europe. We

Packard, of Bis bee; Hon. Frank Cox. of Phoenix; Hon. Roemer, of Benson, and Senator Ives, of Tucson. Several of these gentlemen left last night for San Fran cisco to attend the gathering of Shrin CTS in that city. It is believed that every one of these gentlemen are can didates for congress in Arizona, though only Mir shannon would acknowledge the fact He is in the race provided Mark Smith does not reconsider his declaration of non-candidacy.
 In a conversation concerning poli tics in Arizona, Senator Ives, who i5 a law partner of Mark Smith, ex- pressed the opinion that Mark Smith is not out of the congressional race. al though he would probably make no eff fort to secure the nomination.
 This distinguished party of Arizon- ans have been making personal ap- reals to Californians to give help to Arizona by urging Senator Bard of this state to vote and work for the state hood bill
 Should Senator Bard become ob- stinate in this matter and be the cause of defeating statehood for Arizona, it would be deeply regretted by the peo- pie of Los Angeles.
 There are many Arizonans arriving daily now and locating themselves for the summer in the city and at the near by beachs.

watchman, who was taken to the New Haven hospital suffering with paraly- sis of one side, died at the institution yesterday MT. Barnes was eighty years of age and had been watchman at the harbor oyster beds for many years. He occupied the small house standing on spiles in the center of the area which at high water is covered with water. On Monday night two oystermen failed to see the watchman and investigated the cause of his absence. They found him unconscious on the floor of the hut and he was removed to the hospital. He was a brother of A. B. Barnes, a well known oysterman, and father-in-law of George w. Rowe, of the department of charities. He leaves two. daughters, Mrs, Rowe and Mrs. John E. Hanover, of Exchange street, Fair Haven, and one son, Brainerd Barnes.
 The funeral services of MT, Barnes will be held at the memorial chapel, Fair Haven cemetery, tomorrow after noon at 3:3O.
