RELIEF FOR McMILLANS

Plan Perm anent Relief.
Preparations are being made by repre-
sentatives of philanthropic organizations
to create something in the nature of a per-
manent relief fund for Duncan and Annie
Mcmillan, the aged and almost decrepit
couple living at 424 Nicollet avenue. Their
story has already been told in T re
J ourn al.
Largely because Of the danger and in
convenience Of allowing an old lady who
cannot move from her chair to stay in a
room heated by a range fire it is desired
to find for the old couple a room heated
by steam or something similar. It is also
the idea Of those who have interested
themselves in the case to see that the
charitably disposed do not swamp the
worthy couple with provisions for week
or so and then leave them to struggle
along without help for the rest Of the win
ter.

a considerable number of Republicans,

Three German warships, supposed to

gan Smelling the fort of San Carlos at
1880 yesterday morning. The fort
returned the fire. The engagement
was in progress at 1 O'clock in the af-

The correspondent of the Associ-
ated Press, in a rowboat, approached
to within three miles of the fort at
noon. The roar of the guns was ter
rifle. The Panther appeared to be not
more than 500 yards from the fort.
Her guns were being fired every min
ute. The fort could not be seen for
the clouds of smoke, but it was plain
that the Venezuelan gunners were an
swering the German fire splendidly and
with great rapidity.
At o'clock in the afternoon an ex-
plosion occurred, apparently in the
fort, and a cloud Of smoke covered
part Of the ramparts. A number of In
dian fishermen were intercepted flee.
ing from the direction of the fort in
their dugout canoes, They reported
that the smoke seen was from the
burning village of San Carlos, which
had been shelled by the German ships,
and was in flames.
Battle in Venezuela.
Caracas, Jan. 23.-At midnight Mon
day the revolutionary general Rivera
attacked the town of Coro. The fight
ing within the town lasted for ten
hours. Many men were killed and
wounded on both sides and much dam
age was done. The revolutionists
eventually retired.
The government and the people
generally are anxiously watching
the negotiations of Minister Bowen
with the representatives of Germany,
Great Britain and Italy at Washington.
Much of the anxiety is caused because
owing to the blockade provisions are
dearer and will soon become scarce.
The people are suffering other in
conveniences already. The streets of
Caracas are no longer lighted at night
except the Plaza Bolivar, where few
electric lamps are kept burning.

meeting of the cabinet was one of the
most important held in several weeks.
The subjects of great moment were
discussed fully, the session continuing
for two hours. All the members of
the cabinet were present, Secretary
Hay leaving his home for the first
time in several days to attend The
meeting.
He presented draft of the Panama
canal treaty signed Thursday evening
and both the president and his associ-
ates in the cabinet expressed salts
faction with the results achieved
through the long and difficult negotia-
tions.
The treaty is identical with that
drawn by the government several
months ago and at that time submitted
to the Colombian government with the
single exception of the amount of an.
nuity to be paid Colombia for the right
of way of the canal. This government
proposed an annuity of 100000, while
Colombia demanded $650,OOO. During
the several months of negotiations
Colombia
Agreed to All Points
in the treaty proposed by the United
States with the exception of the an
nuity. For several days active efforts
have been making to secure an agree
ment on this question, but not until
Thursday were they successful. The
Colombian government then agreed to
accept an annuity of $25O,OOO. This
was entirely satisfactory to the pres
ident and Secretary Hay, and while it
is larger amount than was offered at
first, it is believed by administration
officials that the senate undoubtedly
will accept the figure named in the
treaty, particularly after it is made
clear that lesser amount would de-
prive Colombia of income which she is
now actually receiving.
All other points than this one of
money compensation remain as they
stood in the original draft of the
treaty and are completely satisfactory
to the United States government. The
1Tnitnd States will have. control of the
canal s.aIAi
Practically in Perpetuity,
as required by the Spooner act. The
treaty provides for the payment by the
United States to Colombia of $1O,OOO,-
900 in gold and S25O,OOO annually
thereafter. The lease of a zone six
miles wide for 100 years is granted.
The United States has the right to
send troops to protect its property in
case Colombia cannot do SO.
1t was not Mr.. Hays intention to
transmit the signed treaty to the SEN
ate yesterday, but after the president
and he cabinet discussed it the con-
clusion was reached that it would be
advisable to send it to send it to the
senate at the earliest possible mo-
ment. The formal letter of trans
initial, therefore. was prepared at
once and late in the afternoon the
treaty was sent to the senate. The
president and members of the cabi-
net are confident that the treaty will
be ratified at a reasonably early date
without encountering serious opposi-
ton. The Venezuelan situation was
discussed at length, but it was said by
authority that no change in the atti-
tude of the United States is In contem-
pation at this time.

Preparations at State House.
Denver, Colo, Jan. 23-There were
rumors of war and plenty of warlike
preparations at the state house last
night. Early in the evening the story
gained currency that body of armed
men was hidden somewhere in the
state house with the purpose of seiz-
Ing the chamber of the house of rep
resentatives some time during the
night and holding it in the interest of
one of the senatorial candidates. The
house chamber has heretofore been
guarded by three or four men, and
early yesterday morning ladders are
said to have been found in one of the
side corridors reaching to a window
communicating with the house gallery.
It is also said that half dozen I'M
known men were in the vicinity of
the ladders, who
Ran When Discovered.
This incident gave color to the ru-
NOR of an intended armed attack upon
the chamber. To guard against such
a contingency Sergeant-at-Arms Plum
mer placed thirty armed men under
charge Of Assistant Sergeant-at.Arms
Sherman Bell, who was a member Of
Roosevelt's rough riders, in the cham
Der, with instructions to protect it at
all hazards. Shotguns and large
caliber revolxers are much in evidence
and it Is not thought likely that cap
ture will be attempted, even if it were
planned.
The Democratic members of the
senate are still in session, although
most Of them went to sleep upon cots
early in the evening. They were pro.
tected by q score Of policemen and
