ALLIANCE ON
VENEZUELAN
MATTER
Germany and Italy Have
Formed One, the Latter
Hoping to Secure the Same
Treatment That Germany
and Great Britain Get.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb. dis
/ closure of a secret alliance. between
Germany and Italy constituted the
NEST important development in the
| Venezuelan situation tonight This
fact has been made known to the Brit
! ish ambassador and it will put all
of the negotiators more closely on
their guard in the drafting of the pro-
tocols which they hope to submit to
Minister Bowen during the next few
days. The German-Italian alliance
| was old news to Mr.. Bowen, the fact
having leaked out in Caracas before
he left there.
Generally speaking, the alliance is
intended to secure to Italy the same
treatment in the allies settlement
with Venezuela as that received by
| Germany and Great Britain. Mr.. Bow
en- has made 1t plain both to the Brit
ish ambassador and to the German
| minister, Baron Spec Won Sternberg,
| that he cannot affix his signature to
any protocols they may present to him
which are not substantially of the
same character as what are to be sub
mitted by the Italian ambassador, Sig
nor Mayor des Planches.
Must Be More Than One Judge.
Regarding reference to The Hague.
Mr.. Bowen has informed the allies
that he will not consent that one man
be selected from the personnel of The
Hague tribunal to sit as arbiter in the
question of preferential treatment. He
wishes that this court shall consist of
three and preferably of five members.
IN
note to the British ambassador the
latter called on Mr.. Bowen and asked
that he withdraw the entire note on
the ground that it was not diplomatic
in character. Mr.. Bowen was com,
PEELED to refuse to grant his requel t.
The ambassador then asked that the
sentence beginning: "On this side of
the water we want peace and not al
Hances," be withdrawn. Again, Mr..
Bowen regretted that he could not
grant the ambassadors request
Bowen Finally Yields a Point.
Finally the ambassador represented
that the latter part Of the sentence re-
garding the continuance Of the alliance
OF Great Britain with Germany and
Italy would cause him embarrassment
when submitted to the Italian am
bassador and the German minister.
Mr.. Bowen replied that he would be
only too glad to do anything that
would further the negotiations and at
once struck out the Objectionable
clause, which read as follows
And it will occasion great surprise
and regret when 1t becomes known
that Great Britain has even proposed
continuing her present alliance with
Germany and Italy one moment longer
than she must
With this one change the note was
finally transmitted by the British am
be ssador to the Italian and German
embassies.

COMMERCE BILL is A GO.
conferees of Both Houses Finally Reac
an Agreement

conferees of Both Houses Finally Reach
an Agreement.
WASHINGTON, DC, Feb. THE bill
creating a department of commerce and Ia
at1ng a department of commerce and la
Dor was agreed upon by the conferees of
both houses today, and 1t is expected that
IN the form agreed upon it will become a
law All features of the bill have been
published. including section 6, the amend
ment relating to corporations
The main point of difference has been
IN relation to the interstate commerce
commission. By the terms of the bill this
commission cannot be transferred to the
new department. The house amendment
authorizing the transfer Of bureaus by
the president provides that statistical bu-
reauS may be transferred from every ex-
ecutlVe department except the depart
ment Of agriculture, and the intent in
specifying from what departments trans
ferS may be made is to prevent the trans
fer of either the interstate commerce
commission or the bureau of statistics in
the agricultural department.
The new department will consist of the
bureau of corporations the bureau of Ia
Dor, the lighthouse board, the lighthouse
establishment, the steamboat inspection
service, the bureau Of navigation, the
bureau of standards, the coast and geo
detIc survey, the commissioner general Of
immigration, the commissioners of immi-
grafton, the bureau of immigration and
the immigration service at large, the bu-
reau of statistics of the treasury depart
ment, the bureau of navigation, the ship
ping SUBMISSION, tHe bureau OF Foreign
commerce now in the department Of
state; the census beaureau and the fish
commission.
Senator Nelson stood with Senator
Clay in demanding that the commission
be left as an Independent division of the
government, while Senator Hanna took
the position that he did not desire that
the. success of the bill should be imper-
lied by an amendment to accomplish a
| purpose which he thought had been al
ready accomplished. Senator Nelson sug-
geSted the provision specifically mentions
ing the statistical bureaus to be trans
ferred.

BANK EMPLOYE
SHOOTS HIMSELF
Hugh Brown Thought Life
Was Not Worth the
Living.

Hugh Brown, residing at 1921 Haw-
thorne avenue. about $3.50 o'clock yes
terday afternoon shot himself twice
over the left eye in toilet room Of
the National Bank of Conerce. where
he was employed as an assistant teller,
and died shortly after o'clock this
morning at the Asbury hospital
Brown said in a letter addressed to
one of the employees of the bank: 81
am played out. This private trouble
has finished me-" The nature Of the
trouble is not known.
The first that was known of the deed
was when an employee in the building
went to the toilet room and found
Brown muttering incoherently with
blood streaming down his face and
32-calibre revolver in his hand. The
employe went for help. Just as he
and another man were entering the
door, Brown fired another shot lust
above his left eye. He then arose,
still muttering, and walked to the
door, where he fell into the arms of
the employees. DR.. r. s. Brown was
called and dressed the wound, while
the central police station sleigh was
sent for.
At the hospital it was found that
both bullets had penetrated through
the skull, and all hopes Of his recovery
IL
brother of the deceased, and his only
relative in this country, was present
at the time of his death. He was en-
ployed as a bookkeeper by the bank
Brown was intensely nervous and Of
very impetuous disposition but it
seems that he had been brooding over
the trouble for some time. The other
day he casually remarked to an ac-
quaintance that he guessed it was "alI
up with him."
He applied for Friday off from duty
and 1t was granted him. It is thought
that he bEooded over his trouble most
Of the day, for the revolver that he
used was not one that are kept in the
bank, but was one that he had bought
himself. He talked rather queer" dur
ing the day to his fellow employees
and 1T is thought that his mind was
somewhat turned.
Brown was born in England, but
came to Canada at an early age and
settled in Port Huron, Ont. He came
to Minneapolis about two years ago
and had been employed by the Ma
tional Bank Of Commerce since that
time. His employers say that he
worked faithfully and was much val
ued employee.
His mother Is still living in Shelf
field, England, where Brown was born.

ments Which Are Voted
Down, All but One on
Party Lines.


WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb. by a
unanimous vote, 245 to O, the house to-
day passed the antitrust bill. The
closing chapter was devoid of excite
ment. For three hours the Demo-
Gratis offered a series of amendments
designed to place teeth" in the bill.
but they were ruled out of order or
voted down by strict party vote.
Only on one vote was the political
ranks broken. 1t was on an amend
ment offered by Mr.. Thomas (Rep.,
Iowa. to make the filing of returns
incumbent upon all corporations man
datory. On that amendment seven
Republicans voted with the Democrats.
The bill as passed requires corpora
tons hereafter organized to file re-
turns covering articles of incorpora-
ton, financial composition, condition,
etc, with the interstate commerce
commission on penalty of being re-
strained from engaging in interstate
commerce, prescrfbes penalties for
false returns, etc. The commission is
given authority in it's discretion to
call for similar returns from existing
corporations doing an interstate bust
ness. The commission is given au-
thority to compel answers to ques-
lions and fine not to exceed $1,000 is
imposed for failure to obey the COM
mission in this respect.
No Rebates Allowed.

sions Of this section are forbidden the
use of the instrumentalities of the in
terState commerce. Carriers are pro-
hibited from knowingly transporting
articles produced, manufactured or
sold in violation of the Sherman act.
In case of prosecution no persons is to
be excused from teStifying on the
ground that such testimony would
tend to incrinainate him, but for such
testimony witness is not to be prose-
cuted.
The circuit courts are given juris-
dtction in cases Of violation, and it is
made the duty of the district attorneys
to institute proceedings to prevent
violations, and individuals damaged
by violations are given authority to
sue. Suits for failure to make returns
under the bill can be brought wher-
ever the defaulting corporation has a
place Of business"
Senate Passes Bills.
The statehood bill again today
claimed the greater part of the SEN
ate's attention. Mr.. Keane continued,
but did not conclude, his speech on
that subject and towards the close of
the day there was a general debate on
the allegation Of the opposition to the
bill that 1T does not contain sufficient
safeguards against polygamy.
The following bills passed: Au-
thorizing the settlement of accounts of
officers of the army during the recent
war with Spain; for the protection of
wild animals, birds and fish in the
forest reserves of the United States;
providing for an addition to the pub
lie building at Fargo, N. D., at a cost
of $4,000; for a pension of SIS each
