city Of Mexico. Dec. 4.--The chamber
OF deputies has passed the bill amend
ing the constitution by creating the
vice presidency and providing also for
the extending of the presidential term
of six years and the measure goes TO
the senate. The debate vas animated
and one objection was fought which is
the one always raised, namely. that The
vice president would form the nucleus
for intrigues against the president. but
this view was cornbatted by members
who took the ground that Mexico had
advanced a long way from the time
Of purely personal politics 1t was
said by one speaker that nothing could
be more important than to make a long
interval between the periods OF cleo
toral agitation. The debate was uota-
bic for It's animation and parliamentary
restraint though men 81 widely differ
ing political opinion took part siren
Gously.
The business community regards the
proposed amendment 20 the contstitu-
tfon with a high degree Of favor as
the creating OF a vice presidency and
the proiouEation OF the presidential
term to six years will tend TO political
stability.
Public opinion approves the amend
meut making the term or office six

YIELD TO FORCE.
TERMS OF POWERS ACCEPTED
BY CASTRO.
Conditions Cover Cash Payments
and Guarantees for Balance NJ
Claims---Minister Bowen Named
as COmmissiOner---Ma Adjust
without Reference to Hague.

Caracas, Jan. 10.-After two stormy
meetings of the cabinet all conditions
-et forth in the replies tn the powers TO
President Castro's last proposal in the
matter of settling the Venezuelan dis
pute through arbitration have been ac
cepted by the Venezuelan government.
The government considers these copdi-
tons to be unjust, but declared it is
obliged to yield to force. The venezue-
Ian answer was delivered at the Uni
ted States legation here at noon.
The conditions of the powers cover
cash payments to the allies and guaran-
ties for the payment of the balance of
their claims.
1t can be said on good authorit, that
the question of raising the blockade
will not be considered. 1t was learned
at late hour last night that, by the
terms of the notes of the foreign powers
handed to President Castro by Minister
Bowen and of the Venezuelan answer to
them delivered at the American lega-
ton, compromise in the matter of ar
bitration has been reached.
1t has been learned from an authori-
tative source that Minister Bowen has
received orders to leave Caracas for
Washington at once, where he will pre-
sent the case to the German British
commission. An American warship
will call for Mr.. Bowen at La Guayra.
The foreign Office here IS working day
and night upon the preparation of doc
uments that the case may soon be ready
for presentation.

Slower Freights.

Chicago, Jan. 12.-General Mana
gers of all the Western roads have Just
agreed on plan to effect great reduc-
ton in operating expenses. to offset the
increase in price of all railway supplies
and labor. The plan is to reduce the
speed of freight trains about 20 per
cent, SO that fewer but longer trains
can be hauled, thereby reducing the
cost of transportation per ton per mile.
There will be small saving in wages
because of the reduction in the number
of trains, but this is an medicinal saw
ing, and is not one of the chief objects
aimed at by the managers.

Olympia, Jan. 12.-W. H. Hare of
North Yakima, better known to his po-
litical friends throughout the state as
"Doc" Hare will be named for speaker
of the house of representatives. This
was made clear yesterday. when more
than fifty members OF the honse elect
ed on the Republican ticket. agreed to
support him. This insured his election
against any possible combination. Sub
sequently, r. G. Wilson of Kittitas,
announced his Withdrawal from the
speakership fight, and removed the last
possibility of opposition to Mr.. Hare.
The King county delegation afterward
voted in his favor.

FRIEND OF ALASKA.
President Anxious for Legislation
in Her Behalf.

Washington, Jan. 9-Representative
Cushman's Alaskan salmon bill was
drafted by Mr.. Ivey, after a long con-
ference with Mr.. Kutchin, special agent
of the treasury department for fish
cries, who has made study of the cit
uation in Alaska. The provision for a
fish boat for distributing fry is regarded
as strong feature.
The president, speaking to Mr.. Ivey,
said that Alaska must have at the ear
liest possible day delegates in congress,
land law legislation, fisheries protnc-
ton and lighthouses.
He was very emphatic, and said he
would throw up his hat in the air and
shout for joy If such matters could be
presented for his official approval dur
ing the present session.
Mr.. Ivey is much encouraged because
of the presidents voluntary promise to
lend his PERSONAL aid in securing this
legislation.

TELL A TALE OF SLAVERY
Man Kept by Force in the Mines
Virginia.


ew York, Jan. 12.-Ten Slavs, rag
ged and half starved, have arrived here
from Toms Creek, Va, whittier they
went six weeks ago with thirty-two
others on the promise of steady work IN
coal mine at $3.50 day.
They tell story of oppression that
has caused the Austrian ambassador at
Washington to start an investigation
with the object of freeing the men still
in the mine and of obtaining redress iof
their wrongs.
After having been hired, the men
were taken to the little town OF George'
on the Baltimore & Ohio railroad
whence they drove twenty miles across
country. The next morning each man
received several sticks of dynamite ana
some petroleum. "These are your
TOOLS" they were told. "They VIII COST
you $40 and we will take it out IN In
stallments from your pay" The men
worked eleven hours the first day: AT
night they received so cents each IN
stead of $3.50, and they protested, put
they were told to be careful OF their
money, as they would be expected 10
pay part of the cost of their matefiaiS
out of it at the end of the week. 4,
This condition of affairs continued
for three weeks. Then forty-two men
escaped. All but ten were recaptureu
and taken back to the mine.

GOES TO RELATIVES.
Court Decides That Will Leaving
Money for Masses is Invalid.

st. Paul, Jan. l2.-The supreme
court Of Minnesota has decided that
bequest for masses for the soul and for
education of priests is trust not au-
thorized by law in the case of William
Shanahan and Bridget Walsh against
James G. Kelley and others. Father
Phil Shanahan died over a year ago
and left will giving $500 for masses;
81, 900 to Father Fitzgerald for the ed
uaation of priests and about $l2, 900 to
Bishop Cotter Of Winona, also to be
used for the education of priests. Rel
atives of the deceased priest contested
the will. The probate court of Hosu-
ton county sustained the will, but the
district court declared it invalid. The
decision of the supreme court sustains
that of the district court.
