Washington, Dec. 31.-The state de-
partment has been officially advised
through its fiscal agents in China that
the second installment of the Chinese
indemnity fund which falls due tomor-
row must be paid in silver, or rather
on a silver basis. The department
will have placed to its credit the sum
of 1896, O98, for it has without hesita-
tion decided to accept the payment on
the basis proposed. The Chinese tael
which was the basis of the calcula-
tion of the indemnity was worth "a
cents at the time the agreement was
signed in Pekin, is now worth only
81 cents. The impression prevails
here among persons who have taken
part in these settlements that the in
IDENTITIES demanded by the powers are
far beyond China's ability.

Rome, January This afternoon
Foreign Minister Prinetti received,
through Ambassador Meyer, Secretary
Hays note, communicating President
Castro's acceptance of The Hague ar

additional proposition, which the Gov

port.
While reserve is maintained at the
foreign Office with regard to the Vene-
zuelan matter, it has been learned that
the foreign Office considers the addi-
tional proposition made by President
Castro. as net likely Of acceptance.
Communications on this subject are
now being exchanged with Germany

Caracas, January 1.-The report
current in Willemstad, Curacao, that
the Government sustained a defeat in
the recent fight with revolutionists at
Barquisimeto is untrue. The Govern
ment was victorious at Barquisimeto,
ard that town, as we'll as SanICaris
and Tinaouillo, was recaptured from
the rebels, as was duly reported in
these dispatches. There have been
persistent rumors in official circles and
generally throughout this city since
yesterday, that President Castro had
refused to agree to the proposals Of
the allies to refer the Venezuelan is
sues to The Hague. The correspon-
dent of the Associated Press saw the
President Of Venezuela for half an
hour this afternoon. Il is not true
that the President has declined the
proposals of the Powers: the Chief EX-
ecutive declares he wants only fair
treatment. 1t was clear from what
President Castro said at the inter
view, that he believes it would be
very easy to reach full settlement Of
the entire controversy.
President Castro said to the cor
respondent: IF settlement is not
reached, it will be because a settle
ment forms no part of the plan of the
allies; nj this case the prolongation of
the present situation would be dis
astrous for all concerned. The solu-
tion Of the present difficulty depends
more on the Allied Powers than on
Venezuela. -
The President was then questioned
as to whether or not he would re-
nounce the Presidency, and if it was.
his purpose to make a change in the
present Cabinet. He replied: People
are at liberty to talk whatever non
sense they want to: l will make
change in sthe Cabinet when the pre-
sent serious question is ended, .

Berlin. January President Cas-
tro's reply to the Powers, through
Minister Bowen, is substantially an
unqualified acceptance of their pro-
posals to arbitrate and the accom-
panying conditions. The foreign Office
here received his answer today and is
satisfied with its spirit. a further in
terchange OF views preparatory to sign
ing the protocol, will take place in
Washington. The only really important
question to be settled is what shall be
done with the blockade. A continu-
ance Of the blockade is relied upon to
hasten the conclusion of the arbitra-
tion preliminaries, especially On the
part of Venezuela.

The decision just rendered by the

claring that it is not competent for
state legislatures to interfere with ma
tional banks, is important. The presi-
dent, of a national bank in Iowa was
sentenced to imprisonment under a
state law for receiving deposit when
he knew the bank to be insolvent. The
sentence was sustained by the supreme
court of the state and an appeal was
taken to the federal supreme court. The
decision says that congreso having
power to create a system of national
banks is the judge as to the extent of
the powers which should be conferred
upon such banks and has the sole power
to regulate and control their operation.
Congress having directly dealt with the
subject OF insolvency of such banks and
full and adequate provisions having
been made for the protection of credit.

lures cannot interfere with them
While a state has the power to declare

senator HOar's Tribute to the Memory

senator HOar's Tribute to the Memory
of the Distinguished MaryIander.
In his speech at the dedicatory exercises
of the Carroll and Hanson statues in Stat
uary hall OF the national capitol. Senator
Hoar OF Massachusetts confined his tribute
to the career OF Charles Carroll, the illus
trious Marylander who signed the Declara-
tion OF Independence, lived to the age OF
IS, and was the last of the American i'm
mortals" to pass from earth In his little
speech of appreciation Senator HoaT related
this anecdote:
II can remember though but a child Of 9
years, when he died. The schoolboy was
asked the question in the school TO name
the only man living of that illustrious
band And I we'll remember wheE the sol
emn tidings went through the country that
Charles Carroll was gone. Before he died
men used to make pilgrimages to his dwell
| ing, as to a shrine"
! Senator Hoar referred to the religion OF
| Charles Carroll in these words:
| ct would like TO speak for a moment of
one lesson which has been often forgotten
which the life OF Charles Carroll teaches
alone among his illustrious companions:
Charles Carroll was devoted Catholic.
| He belonged to that church which pre-
served for mankind learning, literature and
law through the gloomy centuries known
as the dark ages. Yet 1t is the only de-
nomination Of Christians against which any
thing Of theological bitterness or bigotry
seems to have survived. amid the liberal
ity OF our enlightened day Every few
years We hear Of secret societies. and even
