Apology From Venezuela.

An interesting account of the action
of Minister Bowen at Caracas in de-
handing an apology from the Venezue-
Ian government for the improper use
made of the American flag by the COM
mander of the Venezuelan gunboat
Restaurador, is given in the current
volume of Foreign Relations" Mr..
Bowen, without waiting for instrus-
lions from the United States, called On
the minister of foreign affairs and said
to him:
your captain dishonored the Amer
lean flag, and he should be ordered to
raise it and salute it. and your govern
ment should apologize"
The minister desired several days II
which to investigate the matter. The
facts that have presented TO you are
indisputable," says Mr., Bowen. 'ant
can give you only 90 hours, for fee
that Mt the end OF that time must ca
BILE the facts to my government"
On the following day regrets wer'
expressed on behalf of Venezuela, an
the flag was raised and saluted witt

PRESIDENT AMONG BIG TREES
pisapproves Of Detacine Them by
Signs.

San Jose, Cal, May 12.-Presideut
Roosevelt Monday gave the people Of
the county an object lesson on the
evils of vandalism. While at Santa
Cruz he was taken to the big tree
grove, Almost the first sight that
greeted his eyes as he entered the park
was one of the huge trees with thou
sands of business and personal cards
tackled on it. Tourists for years have
been placing their cards upon this tree
and it began to look more like a re-
ceptacle for bits of pasteboard than
one of the wonders of nature. The
president instantly expressed his dis
anproyal of such a procedure and 4
,ittle while later, when asked to make
a speech, called attention to the deface
mont of the tree and said he hoped tins
neople of California would see to 4
that such vandalism was stopped. he
.,so intimated that he would Ike &c
zoo the cards taken down.

ASHES TEN FEET DEEP.
Recent Eruption ct Santa Maria
VoIcano

News brought here from Guatemala
by people who have seen the ruin
wrought by the recent eruption OF
santa Maria volcano, confirms all the
previous reports. The situation could
hardly be worse.
"All the coffee plantations in the Vi
entity of the volcano" says Manuel
Huertado, just arrived here from
Guatemala, have been destroyed.
Ashes 10 feet deep cover the country.
In the neighborhood of the volcano
ashes are so deep that only one of the
tops of tall trees can be seen. Scoria
and ashes cover 1000 square miles of
land to a depth Of FIVE to Is feet and
5000 square miles to depths Of one to
five feet. One third Of the entire coffee
crop has been destroyed. About 300,
900 quintals of the very choicest cot
fee have been lost and all land upon
which it was grown is doomed to
eternal sterility."

No GREAT NORTHERN STRIKE
MANAGER WARD MAKES MANY
CONCESSIONS.
BY New Scale Passenger TraInmeh
Get ~ Per Cent Raise, FreIeht
Trai,men is Per Cent-Is Thought
the Trainmen Voted to Strike-Men
Are Well Pleased With New Offer.

St. Paul, Mimi, May lit is deem
ed certain that there will be no STRIKE
on the Great Northern, although the
ballots cast by trainmen are believed
to have authorized one. General Man
ager Ward offered concessions on the
double header proposition, in addition
to previous offers made on the wage
matter, which together meet the de
mands of the trainmen. Passenger
trainmen will receive an advance of II
per cent and freight trainmen will
secure Is per cent advance in wages
The canvass of tie vote taken on
the Great Northern system as to
whether the general committee shall
be sustained in their prosecution Of the
double header on the system has been
completed. The grand officers, how
ever, refuse to make known the result
until after a conference with General
Manager Ward.
Mr.. Ward made a number Of con.
cessions, the most important of which
was an offer to agree that not more
than three per cent of the trains IN
the whole system should be run rs
double headers. This is about the
percentage now run.
The men are said to regard this
offer as liberal one. They say that
by the agreement entered into with
the Northern Pacific and Southern Pa
ciflc those roads can run from seven
to ten per cent double headers II they
choose. After the conference with the
general manager they held meeting
to discuss the proposals made, but
nothing definite was accomplished
Later.
The situation on the Great Northern
with regard to strike is regarded as
extremely critical. an ultimatum has
been sent by the general committee
declining the concessions offered by
General Manager Ward at the confer
ence held between Mr.. Ward and the
committeeman today and insisting
upon the original demands with regard
to "doubleheaders." Neither side will
say much regarding the state of af.
fairs, although Mr.. Ward expressed
himself as hopeful ttlat strike might
yet be avoided. He has notified the
committee that he will send an answer
to their latest communication.
Locks Like Strike.
The newest development in the me-
gotiations between the Great North
ern and committee representing its
trainmen was the announcement To-
night that a joint committee from the
st. Paul Jobbers' union and the Min
neapolis chamber of commerce viii
meet with the committee and railway
officials tomorrow morning in an ca
deavor to harmonize matters and, If
possible, avert strike, which they
deem would be disastrous to the bust
ness interests of the northwest.
Meantime, both sides are preparing
for what seems to be the inevitable
outcome of the deadlock in the ne
gotiations,
