DEPRESSION AT CARACAS
ANSWERS OF THE ALLIES NOT RE-
CEIVED WITH JUBILATION.
President Castro Expected to Trans
NIT His Reply to Minister Bowen
conditions of the Powers.

CARACAS, Jan. 1.-THE answers of the
powers to President Castro's last proposal
relative to arbitration were delivered to
President Castro this evening by United
States Minister Bowen. A meeting of the
Cabinet was at once called TO consider
these communications.
All sorts of rumors are current In Cara
cas- tonight concerning President Castros
answer, but none Of them is reliable. 1t
can be said on good authority that Mr.
Bowen does not expect to receive the Ven
ezuelap answer before tomorrow, when
1t will be forwarded to Washington.
1t has een-learned from an authoritative
source that the answers of the powers have
created feeling of depression in Ven-
ezuelan government circles.
BERLIN, Jan. THAT portion of the
joint reply of the powers to Venezuela
suggesting a settlement without arbitra-
ton only goes so far as to offer to treat
for a settlement out of court after the
payment of cash or the giving of a suffi-
cient guarantee for the payment of $685., 900
to each power. This reservation remains
as the fixed and only condition precedent
to arbitration or negotiations direct for a
supplementary agreement. The German
government would much prefer to close up
the matter by negotiations through Minis
ter Bowen while the blockade continues
than without the blockade, and adjust the
differences through The Hague arbitration
court.
The Bank of Venezuela and the Bank of
Caracas have agreed to advance President
Castro money wherewith to pay the Vene-
zuelan troops during the blockade.

the rear end of a freight train on the Mo-
nongahela division of the Pennsylvania

bruised; Mike Gentill. bruised.
The passenger train, which was from
Pittsburg. was on time and had a clear
track, according to the signals displayed.
At the siding at Cochrane it ran into the
rear car of the extra freight. which had
taken the switch but failed to clear the
main line. The officials of the road at
tribute the disaster to the failure of Pat
rick Quinn, the rear brakeman of the
freight, to see that his train had fully
cleared the main track. Quinn has not
been found since the wreck When the
passenger locomotive struck the caboose of
the freight ii was forced back upon the
combination baggage and smoking car The
thirteen passengers in this car were
jammed against the rear end of the car in
a mass. Three of the victims were killed
Immediately, tive were roasted to death
and two died on the way to the hospital.
Almost Immediately after the impact fire
from the stove in the smoking car set fire
to the wreckage and the imprisoned VIC
TINS were tortured. Not truck except
those Of the tender left the track. None of
the passengers in the coaches were hurt
The tender stopped within few feet of
everything and everybody in the smoking
car into a small space, like a plunger in a
cylinder. Men were pinned so that they
could not be extricated. The stove full of
fire, showed back in the car with the men
and seats and with it fifteen gallon can of
oil. The oil ignited, there was an explosion
and the wreckage began TO burn One of
the unidentified men. the upper half of his
body extending from a rear window of the
car, was pinioned by piece of wood i'm the
car. He was alive and conscious of his
peril. He called for some one to release
him. "Chop here" he would shout, point
ing back into the car at something which
held him. Heroic effofts were made to re-
lease him, but the poor fellow had to he
deserted and he slowly burned to death.
The body of Baggagemaster Stroud was
seen standing upright against the window
which opens on the rear platform of the
window so that his features could not be
seen, but he was identified by a ring on one
hand, which protruded through the win
dow.

TERRIBLE DESTITUTION.

In each case the families were entirely
ignorant, there being no member OF the
family that could read or write. Every
member of each family was sick in bed
and when neighbors reported the cases 10
the society the agent found them not only
i'll. but slowly starving and freezing. Their
plight was terrible. No time was lost in
providing fuel, several basketsful of eat
ables and doctor. Another case was that
of a woman eighty-two years old Mr..
Grout said this woman had raised large
family and all have made their mark in
professional life, but they have died. and
the old woman is living alone in one room
in q house on the North Side. When her
case was reported yesterday morning IL
was said she needed coal. Ii was 1ur-
nished and then it was also learned that
she had not been receiving the necessaries
OF life as often as she should.
For this latter class Mr.. Grout said the
society will soon make an effort to do
greater work. He thinks that when
woman like the one mentioned cannot be
of help To anyone she should not be sent
to the poorhouse. A committee, composed
of Rev. Hiram w. Kellogg, John q. VIII
iams Henry L. Beveridge. Mrs. c. b. Cole
man, Mrs. Charles Sutton and Mrs. j. w.
Beck. has been appointed to take charge
of such cases.
Another branch of the society that was
kept busy yesterday was the Dime Savings
society. Inc cashier was DuSy CdSHlilS
small Withdrawals Mr.. Grout said this
branch of the society has worked great
help to the public, as many poor people
are sensible enough to save small sums
of money during the spring and summer
months which is used to good advantage
when cold weather attacks them. The
Withdrawals yesterday We're mainly by col
ored women, some of whom had been at one
time objects of the society's aid.

ception from others in the lack of coal

effect that there was an association of retail
dealers in the city which had to do with
regulating prices. 1t was declared that the
small dealers were forced into the COM
bination by the large dealers and COM
