audiences during run in New York. The
sensation of the play, without which no
modern melodrama is complete. comes in
the third act. the scene of which is laid in
Trinity Church. New York. A marriage
service is about to be performed. when a
startling interruption takes place. The
press agent declares that to tell what the
interruption is would be to spoil the great
surprise in store for the intending patrons
of the play. A vested choir is shown and
the scene is said to be picturesque in the
extreme. The claim is made for 1.-THE

derstood to be first-class.

FAMINE IN FINLAND.

Press reports are TO the effect that
Finland is suffering from famine, In
addition to the sufferings incident to
the deprivation Of the country OF every
vestige OF political liberty. II is said
that so complete has the crop failure
been in more than one-third OF the
northern country districts that not long
ago half million people were estimat-
ed to be at the point OF starvation. Large
sums have been expended for public
relief, and II is maintained as signlh-
cant that Robrikoft, the despotc gov
ernor general Of Finland, has "reluct-
antly been forced" to appeal TO ST.
Petersburg for aid.
Finland often suffers from a scarcity
Of crops, but under a wise govern
meut, means are always provided with
which TO meet emergencies. At pres
ont the situation there is different.
Owing to the Russian oppression. busl-
ness has for a long time been unsettled.
A large number OF young men have left
the country, 10 escape Russian con-
scription, and thus many Of the fields
have been untitled, and many factories
have been compelled TO close. More
than 10000 Firms, during the last year,
found their way to this country, and
others have settled In other countries.
To these conditions, no doubt, much OF
the present suffering is due. Sad and
evil days have come upon an lnteli-
gent, moral, and enlightened people,
but perhaps is their distribution among
other nations necessary for the fulfil
ment OF the designs and plans OF Provi-
denoe. with regard to that race. Per
haps they need the education thus
obtained. and perhaps some day they
will be called upon to take a proml.
nent part in the affairs OF Russia, when
the great awakening occurs, that must

SLOW TO ARBITRATE.

The preliminary work. necessary be-
fore the Venezuela trouble can be
submitted TO The Hague tribunal, Is
rather slow, but in all probability the
outcome viii be satisfactory. The ques-
tlon whether Venezuela must pay her
honest debts, cannot be arbltrated.
That is not a subject In dispute. But
the question whether the claims that
are made, are Just Is proper subject
for inquiry by disinterested parties.
There may be reasonable doubts on
that point.
a correspondent Of the London Times
doubts very much whether all the
British claims are good. He believes
that the vessels seized were really en-
gagged In smuggling. And the bond
holders, ne says, loaned their money
TO Venezuela with the full knowledge
OF the local conditions. In all probable
ity they did so on speculation, expect
Ing to make enormous profits. These
are properly matters for Investigation.
There should be no more delay In ar
irving at an understanding as 10 how
to proceed amicably. The blockade
should be raised. The foreign squad
rons should be withdrawn from Amer
lean waters. Their presence II
menace to peace, II Is perfectly clear
that II Germany should undertake to
land troops, for some reason or other
that may yet come up. the United
States would be under the necessity
Of declaring itself forcibly, and neither
Germany nor the United States can
contemplate such contingency with
pleasure
Germany has stated that she has no
other designs than the collection
Of the debt That Is satisfactory,
but II is no reflection on German
diplomacy to say that II the Vene-
zuelan game Is played much longer,
complications may arise which even the
German government did not anticipate
from the beginning. The temptation to
seize territory and to hold 1t might be-
come too strong for a country that
needs colonies for its ever growing pop
uatlon, and that Is looking for oppor-
tunItIes all over the world. Venezuela
has much land suitable for European
settlement. and there are rich mining
districts calling for expert exploitation.
Given suitable opportunity, Germany
would have every motive to convert o
temporary into permanent occupa'
ton Of such territory, and 1t would
reasonably rely on the reluctance of
this country to declare war for the
Monroe doctrine, against q European
power backed practically by the resi-
OF continental Europe, except Russia
and France.
II is rumored now that the allies are
backing the rebellion against Castro
with the object In view Of putting In his
place a man with European SYM
pathies, If that Is true, the Monroe
doctrine ls violated as much as II ter
rltory had been seized. That doctrine,
as enunclated by American statesmen
means that there must be no interfer-
ence whatever In the affairs of Spanish.
American republics, by European pow
ers. II they were permitted to unseat
and seat presidents at Will, the Monroe
doctrine would be OF no force. 1t could
be maintained no longer.
