allowed upon the report of Sugar which
| subjects such sgxar upon its importa-
tion into the United States to an addi-
tional duty"
1t appears that free sugar which may
be sold in Russia at the Normal excise
Of 175-1O0 roubles per pood may be ex-
ported under a permit from the excise
office upon the return of a free sugar
certificate with the custom house ex-
port mark, the excise then crediting the
exported quantity of sugar to the free
surplus of the MILL which is subject to
double the tax of It's roubles. Discussing
this certificate Justice Brown said:
ut is practically admitted in this case
that a bounty equal to the value of
these certificates is paid by the Russian
government, and the main argument of
the petitioner is addressed to tn propo-
siton that this bounty is paid, not upon
expectation but upon production. The
answer 10 this is that every bounty upon
expectation must to a certain extent
operate as bounty upon production since
nothing can be exported which is not
produced and hence a bounty upon expor-
tation by creating a foreign demand slim
ulates an increased production 10 the eX-
tent of such demand. Consequently a
bounty upon production operates to a GER
tain extent as a bounty upon eXporta>
ton"

Caracas, Jan. 5.-The financial panic
here has been momentarily arrested by
an agreement between the leading traders
of Caracas. La Guaira, Valencia and
Puerto Cabello, and the Bank of Vene-
zuela. The traders have agreed to ac-
cept the banks notes in payment of all
accounts. The run on the bank has
ceased.
Fourteen hundred revolutonists under
Generals Ramos and Penalosa attacked
eight hundred government troops under
the command Of General Acosta Sunday
morning at a point near Guatirre. After
four hours fighting the revolutonists
abandoned the fight and the evacuation
of Guatirre followed. They had 81 killed
and many wounded One of their guns
was captured. A prisoner captured by the
government forces is authority for the
statement that the revolutionist still
lack ammunition.

President Castro continued to surprise

TO ENFORCE TIE BLOCKADE.
Pending Signature Of the Arbitration Protocol
Venezuela Will be Shut In.
CRy the Associated Press.

Berlin, Jan, 5.--Great Britain and Ger
MANY came to an understanding four
DAYS ago to enforce the blockade of the
Venezuelan coast 1t was doubtless in
consequence of this understanding that
vessels at Porto Cabello were taken.
Commodore Scheder telegraphs that the
Germans on Saturday seized fifteen
large Venezuelan sailing vessels at Porto
Cabello. The prizes were towed by the
warships Stcsch and Restaurador to Los
Roques, where they remain under guard.
otherwise there have been no develop
ments at Porto Cabello.
The official view here is that the
blockading commanders acted quite in
accordance with their instructions. The
allied governments determination APP
pears to be- that. pending the signature
of the arbitration protocol, the blockade
within the limits agreed upon shall be
sharply applied. hence, unless the pre-
lminarics for arbitration are arranged
Immediately action similar to that
adopted at Porto Cabello will naturally
be taken at other ports. BY making the
blockade felt it is claimed President
Castros decisions will probably be hast
ened.

day from KEEL for Venezuela.

THE CRIMINAL COURT
Henry Young Will be Tried for
His Life.
Many Submissions and a Case on Hand When
the Court Acjourns for
ths Day.

With Judge Henry r. Bryan, OF New
Bern, presiding. the term of the Criminal
court of Wake county began here yester-
day morning
Judge Bryan delivered a strong and
comprehensive charge, covering the
points which would probably come before
this court. It was clear and able ex-
position of the law to the layman.
The grand jury was selected as fol-
lows: D. G. Conn, foreman; A. r.
Hodges, M. C. Sorrell, D. B. Jones, w.
w. Holding, J. w. Honeycutt, r. C. l..
Coodson, ]. H. Norris, j. l. Murray, w.
A. Williams, ]. d. Bum, c. NJ. Lewter,
A. D. Ross, B. D. Boiling, c. w. Young,
j. r. Ray, ]. L, Britt and A. H. Shearn.
At the morning session no jury cases
were tried, but the following submitted:
s. j. Cooper, carrying concealed weapon,
IS and costs; Willie Saunders, carrying
concealed weapon, S. and costs; Willie
Green, assault with deadly weapon, $40
and COSTS Willis Green, carrying con-
cealed weapon, IS and costs; Lillian
Daughtry, larceny, twelve months in Jail
with leave to hire out; William Wilson,
abandonment, judgment suspended on
payment OF costs.
During the session the grand jury filed
into the court room and presented a true
bill for murder against John Young. a
negro who shot another in this county on
Christmas morning. The time for the
trial has not been set
In the afternoon the case of James
Martin, charged with forcible trespass,
was heard Martin was indicted for
taking a wagon from a driver of w. r.
Dorset, and this wagon Martin claimed
was his own property. He was found
not guilty.
The case of Fcnnor Horton charged
with false pretence in the sale of COW
to B. E. Rogers, was before the court
when the afternoon session closed. 1t
is claimed that Horton guaranteed that
the COW would give four gallons of mill;
a day, but that she gave less than two
pints. On this the suit is based.

FLOODS IN TIE WEST.
Gap in Northern Pacific and Great Northern
Roads---Tw6 Men Drowned.
(By the Associated Press. }


Seattle, Wash, Jan. 5--The flood situa-
tion in the district south of Seattle does
not seem to be greatly improved today.
The first casualties as result of the
rising of the waters arc reported from
O'Bren in the Northern Pacific, between
Seattle and Tacoma. There the water is
six or eight feet high and last night it
was rushing past the houses with the
swiftness of a mountain current. Martin
Cummings and T. Shaughnessy were
rcscuing people from second-story win
dows when their boat capsized and both
were drowned.
Tacoma, Wash, Jan 5.-Delayed
Northern Pacific and Great Northern
trains from the east, have arrived from
Portland with hundreds of passengers
for Seattle and other northern points.
Owing to the abandonment Of the North
ern Pacific and Inter Urban trains be-
tween Tacoma and Seattle, these passen-
gers arc floclling to the boats. More
than thousand people tried to board the
steamer Flyer today, nearly causing a
panic.
