CASTRO GETS AN ANSWER.
Was Delivered to venez uelan President By
Minlster Bowen.

Carcaras (By Cable).-.The answer.
of the powers to President Castro's last
proposal relative to arbitration were dc.
livercd to President Castro by United
States Minister Bowen. A meeting OF
the cabinet was at once called to consid.
er these communications.
1t has been learned from an authorita'
tative source that the answers of the
powers delivered by Mr.. Bowen have
created feeling of depression in Ven
ezuelan government circles.
An interesting fact in connection with
the presentation of the treaty is that
the Venezuelan representative in the
conference refused, upon the instruction
of his government, to participate in the
formulation of the document.
All sorts of rumors are current in Car.
acas concerning President Castro's an
swer to the communication of the pow.
ers, but none of them is reliable.

House Committee Votes TO fsvorsbly Report
Gold Standard for Philippines.

The House Committee on Insular AZ
fairs agreed to favorably report the bill
introduced by Representative Cooper, of
Wisconsin, to establish a currency sys-
TEN in the Philippines, with certain
amendments, one change proposed being
that the gold coin of the United States
and the silver coin authorized in the bill
shall be legal tender in the islands. The
bill as introduced provided that lawful
money of the United States should be
legal tender. The committee says in
the report in explanation Of the bill +:
The object of the bill is not materially
to change the money now in use in the
islands, but simply to give stability of
value to it, and especially to the ratio
between the Philippine silver coins and
the gold dollar of the United States.
1t is the fluctuation in this ratio caused
by the depreciation in silver-amounting
to 30 percent during the last year, which
has resulted in such great injury to
the business interests of the islands.
besides involving loss to the insular
treasury of approximately SI,ooo, 700 in

Arcola, III. (SpeciaD .--Arcola, which
in the past two weeks has suffered a
fuel famine. now has coal to burn.
An Illinois Central train, loaded with
IS cars Of coal, stopped here TO repair
the locomotive. The coal was conhs-
Gated by body OF citizens.
Efforts to buy the coal from the rail-
way company were fruitless and the
crowd, which had increased to 500 or
GOO people, set to work to unload it.
Many prominent citizens assisted in the
raid.

William F. Prout, pastor OF the Free
Methodist Church; Policeman Craft,
prominent merchants and scores OF
other citizens.
The raid was an astoundingly cool
proceeding. Fate in the guisc of 4
broken engine brought the opportunity.
Selling their chance. a committee OF
leading residents presented themselves
before the train crew and carried on a
colloquy something after this order:
we are a committee representing
people OF Arcola. We need coal and
we want to buy this"
I'VE have no authority to sell you
the coal" replied the spokesman of the
crew.
will you, then. ask the officials OF
the railroad company in Chicago by
wire il we can buy the coal on this
train?"
Certainly" said the trainman. apprc-
ciating that there was a ring OF deter
mination in the questions.
In due time the answer came back
from Chicago that the company refused
to sell the coal and that it must be
taken through to its destination as soon
as possible.
Then we shall proceed to take your
COAL" declared the committee. I'VE
are law-abiding but the law OF human
ity in this case rises above the statutes
You will take the coal at your own
risk" said the trainmen.
1--WE assume all responsibility for that
action" replied the committee. You
will make forcibe resistance at your
peril-The train shall not be moved un-
til the people of Arcola are supplied"
Organized seizure was then resorted
to. A weigher was selected and word
was sent throughout the town that coal
could be had for the asking. Teams
rushed to the cars and the committee of
citizens helped to fill the wagons, the
weigher keeping an account of the
amount each person obtained, together
with his name. By 10 o'clock 500 teams
were hauling away the conhscated coal
as fast as they could. The work was
kept up all day, and the fuel famine
was broken.
That night the mercury went to two
degrees below zero and heavy snow,
seven inches deep, fell, but there was no
suffering, for all were warmed by the
confscated fuel Those who had form
ed the mob of determined men went to
church on Sunday and joined in singing

The officials Of the road attribute the

carriages in the royal procession. The
bullet went wild and no one was injur-
ed. The King heard the shot and put
his head out OF the carriage window,
but he was Immediately dragged back
into his seat by the queen mother.
The escort OF civil guards threw them
selves upon the would-be assassin and
overpowered him.
Feito was taken 10 the police sta

The Minister OF the Interior has tel

against the Grand Chamberlain and not
against the King.
A police sergeant. who was the first
to seize Feito, makes the following
statement:

ond carriage in the procession. Before
he could fire a second time | struck him
with my sword. He cried
You wish to kill me, but seek the
life OF the Duke of Sotomayor, who is
the cause OF all my troubles"
The Duke OF Sotomayor, however,
was not in the second carriage. 1t was
occupied by the Marquis de La Nina,
the court grand equerry. and two pal

had for wishing to kill the Grand
Chamberlain. Feito said the Duke OF
