REQUEST FROM GERMANY.
Call Made on Mr.. Bowen for Pay
ment Of Money in Advance
of Stipulated Time.
THE REQUEST IS PROMPTLY REFUSED.
Germany's Motive In Making the Re-
quest is Not Understood Mt wash
inEton, hut it's surmised that
She Has Some sinister Purpose In
View

Washington, Feb. 23.-The German
government, through its representa-
tive here, Bar ON Speck Won Sternberg,
has made a request of Mr.. Bowen for
the immediate payment OF the 55,-
300 which it was stated in the pro-
tocol, signed on February 70, should
be paid within 30 days from that date,
as preliminary to the raising OF the
blockade against the Venezuelan
ports and the agreement to send tho
question of preferential treatment OF
the blockading nations to The Hague
for determination.
Mr.. Bowen promptly declined TO ac-
cede to the request, but informed
Baron Sternberg that, as provided in
the protocol, the money would be
paid to the German representative at
Caracas 80 days from February -,
which would be on the 18th of March.
The reason that animated the Ger
man government in making the re-
quest is not disclosed here, nor is Mr..
Bowen aware of it, The matter, how
ever, has some significance, perhaps,
in view Of the fact that the ships ta-
ken by the Germans during the block
ade have not yet been returned TO
Venezuela.
During the day Mr.. Bowen had calls
from the French ambassador, NJ. JUS
serand; the Spanish minister, Senior
Oieda, and the Belgian minister,
Baron Moncheur, in regard to the
protocols that are in preparation for
the settlement Of the claims of the
citizens of their countries against
Venezuela. Rough drafts Of these in
struments are already on their way
by mail to the European governments
interested, but there are certain pro-
visions regarding them about which
the ENJOYS desired to consult Mr.,
Bowen. The protocols are expected
to reach their destinations the later
part of this week, pending which no
final steps for joint signature can bo
taken.

SOUTHERN GLEANlNGS.
Wreck on southern Railway,

Investigation of the Southern Rail-
way wreck, which occurred at Ravens
worth, Va, when train No. 80, the
New York & Florida express, dashed
into an open switch. confirms the
opinion that the catastrophe was Of
malicious origin. Mr.. A. Gordon
Jones, superintendent of the Wash
ington division Of the Southern rail
way, says the track is known to have
been in perfect shape only a short
time prior to the wreck, and that an
investigation afterward showed that
the lock Of the switch had been brok-
en- and had been taken entirely away.
Heis inclined to believe that some enc
my Of the road desired to wreck the
train, and that no robbery was in
.tended. Both Engineer John Puryis
and Walter Wigginton, the fireman,
died at their posts The formers
body was found under the engine,
burned and terribly mangled. Two
postal clerks, Victor p. Hammer and
n. W. Borden, were injured in the
wreck quite severely.

TORN BY A RAGING TORRENT.
Three Reservoirs I'm the Town of
shelton, Conn, Give Way, Do
Ing Much Damage

Derby, Conn, Feb. 22.-The break
ing Of three reservoirs in the town of
Shelton early Sunday morning caused
damage estimated at between $4,000
and 100000 and there were severa,
escapes from death.
The torrent tore a great gully 10
feet long and 30 feet wide through
Howe avenue, Logs and trees and
huge cakes OF ice were carried along
and crashed into several buildings
The house Of Walter Nichols was
struck by the food, Nichols was away
and his wife was awakened by the
ice crashing against the door. a few
moments later the water commenced
flow into the bed rooms where six
children were sleeping. Mrs. Nichols
hurried to the door and held it while
her children escaped to an upper
floor, A few moments later she es-
capped Just before the water and ice
forced in the door and flooded tie
rooms. 4-e family remained prison
ers in the upper part of the house un-
Ill the water reccded.
Warren WILDER was awakened by a
cake of ice crashing through his door
lie ran into the street where the wa
ter was waist high and hurried to the
nearest point OF safety, Several times
he was hit by ice and fallen trees and
painfully injured. Ten minutes later
the side of the building was swept
away and the bed in which he had
been sleeping was carried along with
the flood
Street railroad tracks and tele.
phone and telegraph poles were torn
up and strewn about in confusion.
The reservoirs will have to be re-
built, and this, with the property
loss, it is believed, will make the loss
100000. Several mills viii remain
idle until the gravel swept into the
raceway is removed
