Washington. Dec. 31.-There are ru-
mors ali the City Hail that the law au-
thorities representing the Federal Gov

West Virginia State Penitentiarv at
M~oundsyille, w. Va, where prisoners

For some years District prisoners
were sent to the prison at Albany and
Trenton, but three years ago the Dis
trict entered into "a contract with the
warden Of the West Virginia institu-
ton. Tho grounds for the contem-
plated change are found in the asser-
lions to the effect that the sanitary
condition Of the institution is not sat

lent. 1t is alleged that one-thid of
the deaths at the penitentiary within

a single exception. originated in the
institution, which is in a low
try. There are several hundred Dis

The troubles prowiag ont Of certain
claims which Great Britain aud Ger
many hold against Venezuela, has
brought to the forefront what is com
monty known as tie Monroe Doctrine
Just what this particular doctrine is,
is perhaps not so commonly known. In
an interview. representative Hepburn
of lows. after expressing the decided
opinion that no violation of the Mon
o d )ctriae had been committed by
the power so far, gives further his
opinion rs 70 what this doctrine is.
and in such plain terms, that we re-
prin5 it. believing that il will prove
helpful TO those who may not have a
clear apprehension of its meaning.
1.-The Monroe doctrine, " said he,
&" coutemDlates two things as objec-
~tionable, one is the acquisition Cf
territory and the other is the inter
ference in the autonomy of gov
eminent. Neither has been attempted
in this case. Here is Venezuela ow-
ing q e she Is asked TO pay ana
declines. Her creditors resort to pun
tive measures. No effort is made to
seize the territory and no effort is
made TO change the form of her exist
ing government. If Germany or Great
Britain had attempted TO seize land or
to demolish the form of government
and establish a monarchy, then the
doctrine would have been violated, l
do not believe that any effort ON the
part of either of the powers to force a
change of personnel in the Venezuelan
Government could even be considered
y violation. The doctrine is very plain
TO NE on this point. Up to this time
there has NOT been the slightest vio-
latiol.
