MARACAIBO, Venezuela, Jan. 49,
The German cruiser Panther shelIed

Yesterday afternoon at 1890 Fort
San Carlos was attacked and shelled,
without any provocation on our part,
Without previous notification, or the
delivering of an ultimatum, by the
German cruiser Panther, which tried
to force the entrance. slAfter a fight
lasting an hour, during which the fort
used only four guns, the Panther was
obliged to abandon the fight, and re-
treated in the direction Of Curacao.
The fort has suffered no damage, and
only three men We're wounded"
There have been popular demonstra-

AvARICE'S DREAMS
NOT EQUAL TO IT
New Gold District Found in
Alaska Excelling the
KlOndike.

SEATTLE, Wash, Jan. 1S.-A spe-
cial to the Times from Dawson SAYS:
A tremendously rich strike, the mag
nitude Of which has never been equal
ed since Bob Henderson told his Won
derful story of the Klondike, has been
made eighteen miles north of a point
on Tanana river, 300 miles from its
source. The district is in American
territory Circle has been depopulat-
ed and wild stampede of prospect
ors from all the surrounding countries
is in progress. AS yet few have reach
ed the discovery
The holes that have proved the
wealth of the country were sunk late
last winter and the first man to reach
Dawson from the country has just
arrived. He is a japanese named J.
Wada, we'll known in Dawson, where
his veracity and honesty are we'll
known. So far the report has not
been spread to any extent in Dawson,
but the little that has been told has
created an excitement that surely
means stampede.
The gist of Wadas report is that
the district resembles the Klondike in
its physical formation, but has a heav-
Ter growth of timber. Gold in widely
different kinds had been found in eight
different creeks when Wada left for
Dawson on Dec. %.
The original strike was made on
Pedro, a creek running parallel with
Tanana, about eighteen miles from the
river. This creek is staked for miles.
Dan Mccarthy, a we'll known Dawson
ite, made the discovery on Cold stream,
a continuation of Pedro, which has
proved to be the richest so far found
Pedro district creek. SO far as dis
covered, has not yet equaled Cold
stream. Seven cents is the richest
found, but its wealth is better indi-

Paid for the Boxer
Outrages.

PEKIN, Jan. 1S.-The dedication of
the Won Ketteler memorial arch, which
occurred today, was an impressive
ceremony. The arch was erected by
China. Baron Won Ketteler was the
German minister who was killed by

blage of diplomats, many Chinese Of
f1cials, all the military officers in Pc
kin, the entire foreign community of
the city, as well as German officers
and civilians from Tien Tsin and 9TH

then spoke-as follows: 5 -
"This monument is to be a warn

tries and symbol of peace
To these words Baron Won der
Goltz replied: This monument has
been consecrated to the emperor or
Germany by the emperor of China as
permanent proof of the anger of
the emperor at this crime. In erect

fills an obligation he took up after
the events of 1900. The monument
shall stand as sermon to posterity
and as lasting symbol of the de-

These two speeches were read in
German and in Chinese. After the
dedication the German troops march

IRELAND SURE To
BE CARDINAL
The Report Is Brought Back
From Rome by Father
Slattery.
Special to The Globe.

Special to The Globe.
BALTIMORE, Md, Jan. 1S.-Arch-
bishop Irelands appointment to the
Cardinalate in the immediate future is
assured, according to the Rev. Joseph
r. Slattery; president of st. Joseph's
seminary. Teh victory of MonsignoI
Denis O'Connell and the consequent
restoration of the OConnell-Ireland
party in the American church to favor
by the Roman curia, means the red hat
for the archbishop. Father Slattery
has just returned from Rome, after
spending considerable time travelling
with Monsignor O'ConneI the newly
appointed rector of the Catholic uni
Versity, who was a classmate of Father
Slattery, and an intimate friend.
Father Slattery says that DR.. O'ConnelI
was we'll aware at the time that he was
to be appointed rector of the university
and had apparently been informed of
it long since.
When Monsignor OConneIl retired
from the rectorate of the American col
lege at Rome several years ago it was
d We'll known fact that it was caused
by Cardinal Parocchi, the cardinal vice
the
church and next in power to the none.
The cause Of DR.. O'ConnelPs removal
is mystery and has never been fully
understood. 1t is generally supposed
that one of the reasons was that be
wrote pamphlet about the period of
his removal on What is Heckeris1n %
1ieckerism was the name applied to the
broad American catholicity advocated
by many churchmen in the United
States and called the '1iberaP' policy.
DR.. O'Connell's articles was defense
of Heckerism. Father SIattery saws
that Monsignor O'ConnelFs appoint
ment is a victory for the liberal ele-
nent in the church and for the party
of which Archbishop Ireland is the
recognized leader.
The appointment means that Arch
bishop Ireland will be made a cardinal ,,
said Father Slattery In fact, 1 am
sure Of it. That is also the general
impression abroad"

PARIS, Jan. 18.-Henri George Ste
phene Adolphe Opper de Blowitz, for
many years correspondent Of the Lon
don Times in Paris, died here this
evening. NJ De Blowitz was for 1nany
years the most famous newspaper cor
respondent at the French capital. He
had not only been successful getter
OF news of international Importance,
through is intimacy with kings ana
statesmen but his nick name of Times
Ambassador" testified to his real pow
er in the world of diplomacy.
He was born in 1882, in the chateau
OF BloWitz at Pilsen. He went early to
Paris, where he became a tedcher Of
German at the lyceums and OCCASION
ally contributed articles on literary or
political subjects to the newspapers,
In 1874 he was made a naturaIized cit
lzen of the French republic. He be-
came acquainted with Lawrence Oil
phant, correspondent of the London
Times, and aided him in important
matters so as to become the natural
successor of Oliphant when the latter
resigned, some twenty years ago.
In the official and diplomatic world
at Paris, De BloWitz was treated as tlia
representative of a great power rather
than mere correspondent He en-
tertalned kings and princes; King Ed
ward of England often dined at his
house, and the late king of Spain never
visited Paris officially or incognito
without calling upon the little SQUAT
fat man, who was known as an abso-
lutely safe confidant
Could Be Trusted.
''The secret of the success of NJ. De
BloWitZ," wrote one who knew him
we'll, was the absolute and complete
confidence with which he inspired the
statesmen, the politicians and the Dip
lomats with whom he was brought into
contact, and which he never betrayed.
They all felt that they could depend
absolutely on his discretion no matter
how great the temptation from Jour
nalistic point of view to do otherwise.
For Spain M. De Blowitz had especial
friendship. He sided strongly with that
nation in the war between the United
States and Spain about Cuba, and after
the war he used his influence to obtain
favorable terms of peace for the de-
feated nation. His course in this mat
ter is said to have brought a severe
rebuke from the London Times, when
favored the United States.
For his services to the French gov.
ernment during the commune insur-
rection M. De Blowftz was made a
knight of the Legion of Honor and he
was known always to use his pen for
the advancement of his adopted coun-
try
His greatest journalistic feat was
probably the obtaining of an advance
copy Of the treaty concluded by the
congress of Berlin in 1873. A princely
salary from the Times and the fortune
of his wife, an extremely rich woman,
made him financially independent and
allowed him to be one of the social
leaders of Paris. For many years he
was unable to write English; and his
dispatches to the Times were in French,
which he used with a wit and grace
that sometimes was lost in translation
for English readers.

NO TRICK NEGLECT
ED BY VOL COTT IN
COLORADO
Wholesale Unseating Of
Democrats Is Still Urged,
but Effort Will Be Check
mated if Undertaken
Something Definite Will
Be Known Tuesday.

DENVER, Col, Jan. 1S.-Interest in
the senatorial fight in Colorado centers
in the report of the house elections
committee which has been investigat-
Ing the contests filed against the seat
ing of seventeen Democratic members
Of the house. The matter was in the
hands of the elections committee for
several days, and while positive evi-
dence has been brought out that frauds
were committed i'll several precincts of
Araphahoe county, the large majorities
received by the Democrats, ranging
from 1000 to 5000, it is believed, will
be hard to overcome in every instance.
The report will be made to the house
tomorrow. Chairman Breckenridge, a
Republican, chosen by agreement with
the anti Wolcctt members, in an inter-
view stated that he believed there
would be two reports, a majority re-
port by the Republicans, who control
the committee, and one by the minority
members. He said that he thought
both sides would stand together, but
he did not want the inference drawn
that the entire seventeen Democrats
would be ousted. 1t is the general opin-
ion that those Democrats whose ma
given above will be allowed to retain
their seats, but that the others will be
thrown out.
1t is also believed that the unseating
of the entire seventeen, which the VOL
cottites demand, will give them the
balance of power in the house. But
should this be done, and the threat of
the Democrats, who control the SEN
1fn 10 Z Ill;
ator be carried out, the results would
likely be d deadlock, for the senate,
then unanimously Democratic, would
refuse to enter joint session. So that
whatever the outcome may be, there
would be sufficient opposition to make
the session an interesting one
On Tuesday the legislature will meet
in joint session to ballot for a successor
for Senator Teller. The equal division
of the Republicans for and against
Senator Wolcott will remain intact,
with no apparent hope of change be-
tween now and Tuesday.
