Washington. Jan. 31-The European
allies have not yet answered Minister
Bowens proposition, made several
days ago. that there shall be no prefer
ence OF claims of Great Britain, Ger
many and Italy against Venezuela over
those OF other nations against the
South American country.
Minister Bowen thinks the delay
should be construed in a hopeful light,
on the ground that the delay of the
answer of the powers indicates that
they realize the importance OF his po-
sition in the matter and are giving the
subject careful consideration. He still
expects a favorable reply to his con-
tention and believes that the question
at issue viii be settled al Washing
ton between himself aeting for the
government OF Venezuela. and the rep
resentatives OF the powers. IL was
reported that an answer 10 Mr.. Bow
ems demand had been received in
Washington, but the report cannot be
confirmed officially, and the answer, II
received was not transmitted to Mr..
Bowen. II the answer did arrive the
suspicion is that II was unfavorable
to Mr.. Bowen's contention. and in view
OF his positive attitude in the matter
was not presented to him but was
withheld by the representatives of tho
allies in order that they might again
impress upon their governments the
importance of the question before
submitting a final answer.
Il became known yesterday that Mr..
Bowen had addressed a note to the rep
resentatives Of the allies which in a
measure might be regarded as an ulti-
matum as defining his position. Mr.
Bowen declines absolutely to discuss
the question but it is known that he
said to the allies that IT, they persisted
in their determination to receive pref
crential treatment in the matter of the
settlement of their claims, he would
call together the other creditor nations
having claims against Venezuela, with
a view TO their making a formal pro-
test against the demands of those who
participated in the blockade The ef-
feet of this would be that the Other
seven creditor nations would be lined
up against the three allied powers
with the result that the settlement OF
the whole matter in all probability
might go to the Hague. if it is to bl
settled at all. This note is believed tC
be having its effect in staying the ina
determination of the question by tb'
allied governments.

Upon warrants sworn out by AttOr-

ARRESTED this morning. charged with

Hollis this morning, and held under

of General Sessions.
The amount involved in the transac-
ton is s62O. which the State alleges
was the difference between the amount
charged by the John NJ Rogers Press
for printing registration lists in 1900
and the sum which the defendants re-
ceived from the county to pay for tho
work. The lists. IL is claimed. were
printed for $3.50 each. while the coun-
ty was compelled TO pay 500. and it
is alleged that the difference between
these two amounts was retained by the
defendants.

Arrest q surprlse.

The arrest caused considerable COM
ment, and was a surprise to many. who
are acquainted with the men. There
was considerable discussion at the time
the printing was done because of the
excessive rate charged for It, and it will
be remembered that when the contract
was awarded several other printing
firms in this city claimed they could do
the work for IS and make money. Sew
eral other arrests in connection with
the case are looked for.

under the conditions. named, arbitra->
ton is applied with freedom from bias,
and the decision rendered Is directly
upon the question presented, uncloded
by suspicion Of mere policy; second,
with arbitration present and ready to
determine in equity any question, the
"Reminiscences (and most men are fair
minded in the abstract) of the parties
leads them to use every endeavor to
arrive at a conclusion between them
selves, rather than to present the ques-
ton to the court. Thus, the invoca-
tons Of arbitration become fewer and
fewer, while the application Of the
principles underlying it are more and
more often made by the parties them
selves.
Hence, arbitration works only for
good, and fur beyond what, at first
glance, would seem to be it's power.
This is because it Is educational in
character. and affords feeling of Sc
curity and peace obtainable by no
other mans yet devised.

BUT LITTLE CHANGE
WITH FREIGHT HANDLERS

There were few developments in the
strike Of the Freight Handlers this
week. Several of the members were
arrested for obstructing railroad
train. They were examined in munic-
ipal court on Monday and held for
the Grand Jury. If the company has
no better evidence against the men
then it furnished at the preliminary
hearing there will be- little chance for
conviction. It will be more of a
case of persecution than prosecution.
Every day the company brings new
men from the Twin Cities, and when
they arrive and find out that strike
is on the great majority of them re-
fuse to work. The company is trying
to put up a stiff front, but it is evident
to every one having any knowledge of
longshore work that very poor salts
faction is gotten by the company.
The business men are complaining
about the strike. The men, imprisoned
in the boarding cars do not get up town
to spend any money, and of course this
affects business to some extent.

A. FlTGER E. co.
528-540 East Superior Street.

The manufacture Of beer necessarily
involves considerable capital and gives
employment directly and indirectly to g.
large force Of men. In the city of Du-
luth, there is probably no concern
which adds more to the volume Of the
city's business than does the we'll
known and famous A. fFitger & Co.
This company is located at 52S-540
East Superior Street, and have a large
and constantly increasing business.
The "A. Fitger & CO. of Duluth well
merits it's success and the popular favor
in which it is held.
The officers of the company are Mr..
August FYtger and Mr.. Percy S.
Anneke. These gentlemen have shown
themselves to be broad-minded, public
spirited citizens. Workingmen of Du-
luth and throughout this section of the
country should give A. Fitger & Co.
their hearty support and encourage
ment, not only because of the excel
lent quality of their brew, but also on
account of the uniformly fair and con-
s1derate manner in which they have
always dealt with their patrons
We feel safe in predicting for this
company continued and constantly in
creasing prosperity. We take pleasure
in placing the name Of A. F'itger & Co.
among the strong and substantial con-
Germs Of the Northwest, which are to be
depended on as staunch and substan-
tial friends of conservative organized
labor

MESSENGER BOYS
IN BAD MIX UP.

The messenger boys have been their
own worst enemies. Organized labor
took up their cause, because it believed
that they had just grievance. They
were given an opportunity to cut in
to the business of the Western Union
company, and their little business was
netting each one Of the boys even more
money than they were getting at reg
ular work. But some of them were not
true to themselves. The trouble at
Stone Ordean-W Wells might have been
excused, for it is learned that some of
the clerks there provoked the trouble.
but there was no excuse for the presi-.
dent Of the union associating with
boys engaged in petty stealing His
arrest discouraged those who desired
to befriend the boys. Let it be said to
the credit of Fred Smith that his ac-
counts with the boys were in first class
shape. He might have been honest
with the union, but he was not true
with himself. This, of course, would
naturally discourage his associates.

DULUTH BREWING AND Mailing
COMPANY.
Brewery, Helm, S. e. Cor. goth Ave. w.

Beer is often known as poor mans
beverage. Whether that is true or not,
the workingman is certainly interested
in any enterprise which tends to in
crease the sum total Of the city's pros
perity. The brewing of beer is an in
dustry Of much Importance in Duluth,
and the Duluth Brewing and Mailing
Company is one of the largest con-
Germs of it's kind at the head Of the
lakes. A company which benefits the
city as does this company is bound to
be of material benefit to the laboring
masses, who constitute so large a per-
centage of the city's population.
The famous brands put upon the
market by this concern meet with uni
versal commentator. Thir celebrated
beers, Moose Brand and Prima Tonic,
are sold at all the leading hotels and
resorts.
Union members should see that this
deserving concern is patronized and
encouraged in every way possible
Since the date Of it's inception this
company has built up large and -four
ishing business, and is at present most
popular throughout the entire Central
West. Upon careful investigation we
find that the large force of employees
hired by this company are accorded
every degree Of fairness and consider
alton by their employers, and are paid
as high wages as is consistent with
stability and business integrity. The
high esteem in which this company is
held by their employees and by organ
lied labor of Duluth and the state is
largely to be attributed to the fair and
honorable manner in which their ex-
tenslve business has always been con-
Quoted. Mr.. r. Hoch, the president
and treasurer, and Mr.. I. C. Heider,
secretary, in their dealing with labor
representatives have always treated
them with courtesy and consideration
The Labor World trusts the business
of this public spirited institution will
continue to increase and prosper SO
long AS it is conducted on it's present
broad-minded and honest basis. It is
with pleasure that We give this con-
Germ most honorable mention, and place
the name of the Duluth Brewing and
