Special to The Journal.
Detroit, Mich, July 16-The Minnesota
delegation arrived in the convention city
last night at 8 o'clock, after a. ride by
rail and lake Of twentyfour hours. The
Epworth League special left the Mil
waukee station, Minneapolis, with five
sleepers and three coaches filed with en-
thusiastic young Methodists, and two
more sleepers were attacked at La Crosse,
bringing leagures from the southern and
western parts of the state. The train
pulled into Milwaukee on schedule time,
but the special boat was held an hour
and a half to accommodate the Wiscon-
sin delegation. A bright. sky, a bracing
breeze and choppy sea made the trip
across the lake an exhilerating pleasure
to many, but a melancholy experience to
a few
From Grand Haven the trip was made
over the Grand Trunk by special train in
two big sections of nine coaches each, the
first carrying the big Minnesota crowd
and the second the Wisconsin contingent.
AS they rolled into the station the echoes
Of Stand Up, Stand Up for Jesus, ''#"On-
ward, Christian Soldier and like inspir-
ing anthems rang thru the corridors Of the
station and announced the arrival Of the
advance guard Of the Christian young
people. The visitors were escorted by
numerous guides to the Minnesota head
quarters, the woodward Avenue Baptist
church, and assigned to their places Of en-
tertainment.
This morning the Minnesota rally organ
lied a state league, the constitution and
officers Of which will be provided at an
adjourned business session Tomorrow
morning. A Minnesota excursion to Nj
agara Falls, consisting of more than 1875
leaguers, will leave Detroit Monday

THE SIEGE IS
IN PROGRESS
At Request Of Consuls Government
Forces Refrain From She'll
ing Ciudad Bolivar.
They Surround the Town, However
and Will Attempt to Starve Out
the Revolutionists.

Soledad, Venezuela, Wednesday, July
15.-The situation is unchanged. The at
tack on Ciudad Bolivar by the Venezue-
Ian government troops, which appeared
imminent yesterday morning, has been
deferred at the request Of United States
Consul Henderson, Herr Brokman, the
German consul, and the bishop, who
transmitted to President Castro thru
General Fomez, the commander-in- chief
Of the government forces, long telegram
asking him to be magnanimous and to
show mercy to the revolutionists. 1t is
known that the president answered as
follows:
Eyes, for every one except the traitor,
Ferrera, the author of so many tears
and the cause of making SO many or
phans."
The Anal period Of delay given by
General Gomez for a definite answer to
his request for the surrender of General
Rolando and his followers expired to- day,
but at the last minute President Castro,
wishing to save the lives OF the inhab-
itants OF Ciudad Bolivar, ordered General
Gomez not to open fire unless he Is at
tackled, but simply to besiege the city.

GOOD CHANGE
FOR THE TREATY
President Marroquin Can Prolong
Session Of Congress Year
If Necessary.

Kew York Sun Special Service. 4.F
Washington, July --Obstructi onists
In the Colombian congress will have to
flibuster a year to defeat the ratification
Of the Panama canal treaty. DR.. Herran,
the Colombian charge, after a three days
conference with Pedro Velez Of Cartagena.
a member Of the Colombian congress, who
came directly from Bogota to learn the
exact status Of affairs with regard to
canal matters, states that the special
session of congress called for the con-
sideration Of the Panama treaty will not
terminate July 20, as has been errone-
ously reported.
There will be no regular session Of the
Colombian congress until next year. The
congress, unlike that of the United States,
meets only every two years. It's regular
session should have been held last year,
but this was impossible as the country
wa stirred up by revolution.
Hence the next regular session will not
convene until July 20, 1904, and the
president Of Colombia can continue the
present extra session until that date.
This official explanation comes as a
great relief to the friends Of the Panama
canal who had been led to fear that
filibusterers would be able to defeat It's
consideration and vote until the next
regular session.

THE SOUTH AMERICAN MESSAGE
Don't Worry; He Has Year in Which to Arrive.

the surprise of everybody there was no
recommendation Of mercy and the famous
criminal must go to the electric chair.
It was thought that the long elaboration
argued that the degree Of crime would be.
reduced.
At first the jury stood ten for convic-
ton without mercy and two for conviction
with mercy, being unanimously. for guilty.
Repeated ballots were taken and shortly
after z o'clock it was found that an agree
ment had been reached. Judge Belden
was sent for and arrived about $780,
Knapp was brought into court by Sheriff
Bisdorf. Few spectators We're present and
there was no excitem ent.
Knapp took his seat quietly and did not
appear alarmed When the verdict was
read convicting him without recommends
ton OF mercy, he did not show any sign
Of emotion or make any comment. He
seemed to have prepared himself for the
ordeal.
/ The result OF the trial Is accepted with
great satisfaction, as hope Of convic-
ton became low when the jury remained
out SO long. Knapp's sisters were much
affected. The case will be carried higher
on the usual appeals, but it Is generally
believed that Knapp will now be electro
cuted:
