excellent quality.

Leunon. Jan. 31.-The February
number of the National Review cor
tains very timely article by Captain
Mahan, the noted naval writer, on the
Monroe doctrine. He points out that
the United States considers it essen
tial to her interests and to those of
peace to withstand the beginnings of
European Intervention in the internal
concerns of any American state.
Dealing with Venezuelan dispute,
Captain Mahan remarks:
"Such an occurrence as the existing
difficulty between Venezuela, Germany
and Great Britain engages instant and
sensitive attention. This does not i'm
ply any doubt of the wisdom and
firmness of our government, but indi-
Gates instructive political apprehen-
sion, not ELECTED by greater and imme-
diate interests in quarters external to
the American continents.
mot to invade the rights of an
American state is to the United States
an obligation with the force of law.
To permit no European state to infiu-
ence them is a matter of policy.
But as she will not acquiesce in
any assault upon their independence
or territorial integrity, SO she will

international obligations to others than
herself.
"The United States is the inevita-

John Quincy Adams at the time of its

by the national consciousness, is abb
stention from interference in ques-

''In my apprehension. Europe, con-
strued by this doctrine. would include
Africa. with the Levant. India and the
countries between them. 1t would not
include Japan. China nor the Pacific

The Presidents Attitude.

The New York Herald correspondent
says the statement of the administra-

President will be satisfied If Congress
shall pass these measures:
First-Publicity bill. This measure
is pending in the conference commit
tee of the two houses as an amend
ment to the bill establishing Depart

Second-A bill to expedite decisions
in pending trust litigation. This meas

such cases as suits against the North

trust, and railroad injunction suits.
Third-Prohibition of the Offering or
accepting of rebates This is part OF
the Littleiield antitrust bill pending
In the House.
Fourth-The Ellins bill. This is
pending in the Senate and is on SUBJ
stantially the same lines as the Little

Washington. jan 31-The European
allies have not yet answered Mr.. Bow
EMS proposition. made several days
ago, that there shall be no preference
of claims of Great Britain, Germany
and Italy against Venezuela over those
OF other nations against the South
American country.
Minister Bowen thinks the delay
should be construed in a hopeful light,
on the ground that the delay in the an
swar OF the powers indicates that they
realize their importance in the mat
ter. He still expects favorable reply
to his contentious. and believes that
the questions at issue will Be settled at
Washington between himself acting
for the government OF Venezuela, and
the representatives of the powers.
1t is reported that an answer to Mr.
Bowcn's demand has been received in
Washington. but the report cannot be
confirmed officially. and the answer, If
received, was not transmitted to Mr.
Bowen. II the answer did arrive. the
suspicion is that It was unfavorable to
Mr.. Bowen's contention. and in view
of his positive attitude in the matter,
was not presented to him, but was
withheld by the representatives Of the
allies in order that they might again
impress upon their governments the
Importance of the question before sub
mitting final answer.

RAILROADS DROP
PARALLEL LINES

Topeka, Kan, Jan. 31.-General
Manager Nudge of the Santa Fe yes
terday said OF the Santa Fe-Rock Is
land alliance:
'.The Santa Fe will build from. Dodge
City to Liberal. Kansas, connecting the
Santa Fe main line with the Rock
Island at once From Liberal to some
point in New Mexico. where the new
Santa Fe cut off crosses the Rock
Island, distance of $50 miies, the
Santa Fe will use the Rock Island
tracks. From this point the Rock
Island will use the Santa Fe tracks to
the Pacific coast.
This will probably blot out the
plans of both roads for rebuilding
heretofore proposed New Mexico oppo-
sition lines.
"The plan for rebuilding the Santa
Fe's Pecos Valley lines. and the Par
Handle division will come to naught
for the through traffic of the Santa Fe
will not be sent south through Wich-
ita, Wellington and Alva, but will &C
west from Newton to Hutchinson
Kinsley and Dodge City. thence south
on the proposed new line to Liberal.
When asked whether or not the
Rock Island has secured any voice In
Santa Fe affairs by means OF purchase
of stock, Mr.. Nudge said:
THAT is something which l know
nothing at all about. All know is
that at present it is the plan to builc
our lines south from Dodge City, in
stead of making our main line over the
Panhandle, as was contemplated"
The Santa Fe and Rock Island have
for some time been on the verge of 6
serious conflict, and the consummatior
of the traffic alliance has been brought
about, 1t is believed. by the fear thai
such a conflict might result disas
trously to both roads. Combination

might be regarded as an ultinatum, Ms

clines absolutely to discuss the ques-
tion, but 1t is known that he said 10
the allies that il they persist in their
determination to receive preferential
treatment in the matter of the settle
ment of the claims. he would call to-
gether the other creditor nations hav-
ing claims against Venezuela, with
view to their making formal protest
against the demands Of those who par

The effect OF this would be that the

wireless stzamer Service.

Lordon. Jan. 31.-The first attempt
to supply incoming steamers with a
news service was made yesterday,
when Reuters Telegram Company
filed with the Marconi Wireless Tele-
graph Company 100 words of news for
the Cunard line steamer Lucania,
which left New York Saturday last and
which is due to arrive at Queenstown
to-day or tomorrow. The wireless
company thus far will only engage to
attempt to transmit messages twenty
to thirty miles from Browhead, so the
news will only reach the steamer n
few hours before her arrival at
Queenstown.
The company will have better
chance with the steamer Minnetonka,
which also left New York Saturday,
to which a news message will be
transmitted tomorrow. The Mime
tonka passes twenty miles from the
Scilly islands. but only reaches Lon
don forty-eight hours later.
