result that we shall soon get satisfac-
ton and that we can raise the blockade.
But it must not be forgotten that
blockad ding forces, so long as the block
ade lasts, absolutely must compel re-
spect for the blockade in the territory
assigned to them. This was the prob
able reason for the action of the Ger
man ships against Fort San Carlos dur
ing the past few days. We are without
any official news from there. We have
hitherto received but one dispatch from
the commander of the Fake, dated Gu
racao, January %, and it says:
According to trustworthy informa-
tlon received (by him) from Maracaibo
the ships Vineta and Panther lombard
ed, set fire to and destroyed Fort San
Carlos, January 21.''
The general debate on the budget was
closed to-day and the house adjourned
to January 30.
The correspondent of the Associated
Press has received written replies from
the chief of the foreign office to three
questions:
First-"Why did the ships lombard
Fort San Carlos?"
Official news regarding the
Panther'S reasons for forcing the en-
trance OF the Lagoon of Maracaibo has
not yet been received. So far as the
situation can be understood from here,
the seizure of the Lagoon was necessary
to an effective blockade of the harb0r
OF Maracaibo. Otherwiseiit would have
been possible to convey all sorts of
merchandise over the adjacent Colom-
blan frontier, particularly arms and
provisions across the Lagoon to Mara
caibo and thence inland, thus rendering
the blockade completely futile. Appar-
emily Fort San Carlos tried to prevent
the entrance of the Panther into the
Lagoon, and it must have been, there
fore, necessary to silence it,
Second-"Why did the German ships
alone take part in the bombardment?"
Answer-''The fact that only German
ships took part in the bombardment is
obviously explained. Maracaibo harbor
lies in the western part of the coast
line, which was being blockaded by the
German forces"
Third-"When will the blockade be
raised?"
Answer-'No decision has yet been
reached by the interested powers as to
when the blockade of the Venezuelan
coast shall be raised
London, Jan. 24-The Willemstad,
Curacao, correspondent of the Daily
Mail says: 'On Wednesday the Ger
man gunboat Panther, which was in
securely anchored off San Carlos, mov-
ed in close to the Castillo battery,
which fired one shot as a warning. The
Panther disregarded the hint. An
other shot was fired from the, Castillo
battery, whereupon the Panther opened
fire and continued the cannonade for
half an hour when she retired. The
Vineta Immediately began a heavy
bombardment of Fort San Carlos, seri-
ously damaging the fort and the houses
in the vicinity"

that Governor Ingersoll would probably
linger for some time. He was delirfous

U. S. STEEL STATEMENT.
Recent Meetings of Presidents of the
Subsidiary Companies.

Recent Meetings of Presidents of the
Subsidiary Companies.
New York, Jan. 23.-The United
States Steel corporation. gave out a
statement to-day concerning the recent
meetings held here of the presidents Of
the subsidiary companies. The state
ment says:
During the last week the presidents
of the different corporations in which
the United States Steel corporation is
interested have been in consultation
concerning the properties and business
of their respective companies. The fol-
lowing named persons were in attend
ance:
W. e. Corey, W. 2. Palmer, E. J. Buff
fington, Thomas Lynch, W. B. Schiller
George G. McMurtry, W. r. Graham,
A. ]. Major, Daniel Coolidge, T. F. Cole
w. J. Olcott, A. F. Banks, A. B. Wolvin,
D. M. Clemson, D. G. Kerr and w. H.
Donner.
The officers of the United States Steel
corporation and some of the members
Of the executive and finance commit
tees, respectively, also have been in at
tendance all or a portion of the time.
The meeting adjourned this afternoon
and will meet again in New York about
March /.
Various important questions have
been fully discussed, carefully consid-
cred, and recommended ons embodying
the conclusions of the presidents will
be submitted to the executive commit
tee and finance committee, respective
ly, of the United States Steel corpora
ton for consideration and recommend
alton. Among other subjects consider
ed are proposed improvements and ex-
tensions to the manufacturing, mining
and transportation properties of the
various companies, and recommended
tions for the expenditure of considera-
BILE sums have been made. Many of the
improvements suggested, however, were
rejected after full discussion and con-
sideration. The improvements which
will be made are in the direction Of in
creasing production and facilities for
manufacturing, but more especially to
reduce cost of production and distribu-
ton.
There were also included in the dis
cussions and recommendations the
Union and Sharon Steel properties,
lately acquired, the management of
which was so divided and distributed
as to give control Of the same to other
subsidiary companies interested in the
same lines of business.
The presidents also considered some
what in detail the work laid out by the
different corporations for the year 1908,
with the object of so systematizing and
harmonizing the business interests of
the different companies as to produce
the best results.
The question of transportation by
outside railroad companies. particular
ly in the coal and coke districts, re-
ceived much consideration, and recon-
mendations were made which, if adopt
ed, it is believed will be highly benefi-
cial. The feeling of harmony which ex-
lists between the officers of the subsidi-
ary companies and between them and
the officers and members of the COM
mittees of the United States Steel cor
poration is noticeable and agreeable.

Philadelphia, Jan. 23.-The Indepea-
dent operators of the Wyoming and
i Lackawanna regions in which Scranton
and Wilkesbarre are situated occupied
tie time Of to-day's session Of the coal
strike commission. The attorneys rep
resenting the thirty companies in these
two regions, called about a dozen wit
nesses who represented different con-
Germs. In the examination of these wit
nesses the lawyers trid to avoid as
much as possible the repetition of tes-
timony already presented by the larger
companies. Therefore, the examination
to-day as confined to the particular
company with which the witness was
connected. Nothing of Importance was
elected. There as unanimity of opinion,
however, that the lack of discipline
among the miners and the restriction OF
their earning capacity, testified to by
witnesses for the large coal companies,
is more pronounced since the union
came into the anthracite field then 1t
was before the men were organized. T.
The independent operators in the
Hazleton region will open their case to-
morrow. The firm of G. B. Markle &
Co. is among these operators, but 1t is
not known whether that company will
be reached tomorrow. IT.. **a
At the afternoon session, Henry
Lubken of Scranton, civil engineer
employed by the Jer1nyn Coal company,
who has had considerable experience in
the bitumi1ous region, testified that
soft coal mining is much harder than
anthracite mining.
+ w. G. Thomas of Scranton, superin-
tendent of the Black Diamond Coal
company, was on the stand for a long
time. He told of general conditions
about the companys collieries and mem
toned sevral instances where the union
men and boys had disobeyed orders.
The influence Of the union, he said,
tended to restrict the output. He knew
of no blacklist in the region. .r}
John G. Hayes, superintendent of the
Peoples Coal company, which managed
to operate its colliery during the strike,
and sold coal in New York at the rate
TO $40 a ton, said that 60 per cent. of
the employees of the company are nom
union. He stated that the average
time worked by the contract miners
was about four and ninet-enths hours
a day. The lack of discipline, he said,
The non-union men in the employ of
the company are getting out more coal
than the union miners.

Maracaibo under date of January 81 as
follows:
"On the 17th inst, while the Panther
was passing the Maracaibo bar, she was
unexpectedly attacked by Fort San
Carlos, which opened fire on her. To
this the Panther replied and cannon

Owing to the difficulties of navigation

Maracaibo, Jan. 23-At 2 o'clock this
afternoon Fort San Carlos was in the
possession of the government forces
and the bombardment by the German

tion. The gunboat Panther was the
only vessel to come inside the bar.
Communication with the fort is very
difficult. Great excitement prevails in
Maracaibo.

Ottawa, Ont, Jan. 23.-It is said on
good authority that there is little pros
pect of the Canadian government fol-
lowing the action of the United States
congress in removing the duty of BIZ

congress is only temporary and the
opinion here seems to be that it would
be inadvisable for Canada to take off
its duty under the circumstances.
