belgian and FFench Arbitrat0rs
Complete Their Work.
New York, Sept. 29.-Dr. Filz former
president Of the high court Of the
Dutch West Indies and representative
Of Belgium as an arbitrator Of the
claims against Venezuela, and Count
Peretti de la Rocca, French representa-
tive in the Venezuelan arbitration
couIS, arrived on the steamer Philadel-
phia from Curacao.
At the dock they would say nothing
about tie Venezuelan cases, but an
other member Of the party said that
the Belgian and French arbitrator had
completed their labors, the English ar
bitrator expected to finish by the end
Of November, the German by the pres
ent date, the Dutch arbitrator month
later and the American by Dec. /.
he added that everything was pro
ceeding smoothly and the Venezuelan
government was paying into the bank
to meet demands 80 per cent Of all
customs duties received at Puerto Belle
and La Guayra.
Or. Filz and Count Peretti are en-
route to Europe.

Soldiers at Camp Young Drilled In
Advance and Rear Guard Tactics.
Camp Young, West Point, Ky, sept.
29.-The first real work of the troops
assembled here for the army maneu-
vers conferred On the solution Of the
various problems which confront the
advance and rear guards Of an army
in the neighborhood Of an enemy ia
time Of war. The different phases Of
the problem, such as the protection by
the advance guard of its own fank in
a country offering good cover to an at
lacking force, the protection from a
rush In the open by mounted infantry
or cavalry and the fundamental re-
quirements Of discovery Of the enemy
within a time sufficient to allow the
main body to be deployed in line Of
battle casually at least one hour were
all allowed to develop in natural fash
ion without generalization after the OPP
posing forces had been set in motion
The same relative problems were set
before the rear guards Of the blue and
the brown armies. The main bodies
did not clash. Their part in the prob
lem was limited to forming line Of bat
tie and fixing the positions so that the
time consumed and the disposition Of
the troops could be passed upon by the
umpire in judging the work of the adj
vance and rear guards in protecting
them from surprise, While this was
being done the advance guards were
enjoying some lively skirmishing, the
points chiefly noted by the umpires in
this being skill in taking cover, sur
prise, superior weight of FIRE, accom-
panied by the least exposure Of the
body, taking the initiative, proper re-
serve Of magazine fire, etc.

recognized that the same causes were
in operation which have prevailed for

This is a true story related to me by
the Llother Of the man principally CON

descent, John Nolan was an officer OF
a lumber company at Sacramento. 1t

him to come up.

Now, there was. nothing In the light
