TWO MEN DROWNED.
Flood Situation South of Seattle
Does Not Seem to be Improved.

Seattle, Wash, Jan. 5.-The flood
situation in the district south of Seattle
does not seem to be greatly improved
this morning. Only the most meagre
particulars from the various points have
been received.
The first casualties as result of the
rising of the waters, are reported from
O'Brien, on the Northern Pacific, be-
tween Seattle and Tacoma. There the
water is six Or eight feet high and last
night it was rushing past the houses
with the swiftness OF a mountain cur-
rent. Two men. Martin Cummings anG
F. Shanghnessy, were in boat rescuing
people from second story windows and
on one OF the trips, tho boat capslzed
and Cummings and Shaughnessy were
both drowned. No trains are running
through the flooded district, the North
ern Pacific this morning making no ef-
fort to resume operations between this
city and Tacoma.

UNITED STATES
DISSATISFIED
Blockade Of Venezuela is Working a
Hardship to American Interests
and the Government De-
sires the Protocol to be
Speedily Signed.
GREAT BRITAIN AND GERMANY NOW AGREE

| Washington, Jan. 5.-The responses
of the allied powers to Castro's last
propositions to submit Venezuela's case
to the arbitration of the Hague tribu-
| nal, have not yet been received but it is
believed that the answers will not be
much longer delayed, as continuance
of the present state of affairs on the
Venezuela case is not viewed with sat-
isfaction. The blockade is believed to
be working injury to American inter-
ests. therefore the desire is strong to
see the protocol which will include a
provision for the termination of the
blockade, speedily agreed upon.
Mr.. Bowen's advices from Caracas
show the conditions there are very
much disturbed, that internal revolu-
tionary troubles have intensified and
President Castro is sorely beset.
WILL ENFORCE BLOCKADE.
Berlin, Jan. 5.-Great Britain and
Germany came to an understanding
four days ago to enforce the blockade
of the Venezuelan coast precisely as
though the negotiations for arbitration
were not going on. 1t was doubtless in
consequence of this understanding that
the vessels at Porto Cabello were taken,
though both the foreign office and the
navy department are yet without ad-
vices showing that vessels were taken
or marines landed.

TWO CHARACTERISTIC LETTERS.
The subjoined letters well illustrate
the extremes of those received at the
Bureau of immigration. The first, from
Greenfield, Mass, shows the character
of the questions asked:
Gentlemen: Can you give me any
information as to which is the best To-
cality to locate in, as regards to, mar
kets, ease of getting water and climate?
am not informed enough to know my
self. I had circular from the Denver
and Rio Grande railroad and among
other sections spoke very highly of the
Pennington section in New Mexico and
fruit, think best"
The second letter shows how the bull
letins are regarded by business men or
those who have money to invest in the
territory:
Dear Sir: Yours of the 21st received,
together with bulletins. I thank you
very much for your courtesy in that
regard. Have spoken to several parties
who think of going to your state to in
vest considerable capital in business
enterprises. We will await receipt Of
the remaining bulletins of which you
spoke before deciding upon a location.
Thanking you in advance, remain,

MAY LEARN FARMING.
Indian Boys Are Wanted at The Chllocco Agriculture
School In 0kIoh0ma.

There is an opportunity at the Chloe
co Agricultural school, under the con-
troll of the Indian service, at Chilocco,
Oklahoma, for Indian boys to learn
farming. Superintendent S. M. Nc
Cowan, of that institute, has written to
Superintendent c. j. Crandall, of the
government Indian school here. in re-
gard to it. One boy has been accepted
from here and ticket provided for him
to attend the school, Superintendent
MCGOWAN says there is still room for
about thirty boys in the school. "Why
not get up party of ten or more boys
who are desrous of learning all possible
about farming" saws Mr.. MCGOWAN,
"and bring them up? We want boys
between the ages of IL and 10 years.
With party OF ten we can get special
rates, and 1 would be pleased to have
that many from your place"
Colonel j. Francisco Chaves has taken
the matter up and will try to organize a
party of thirty Indian boys from New
Mexco,to take advantage Of the oppor-
tunity offered. He expects to get the
ten near here and will doubtless have
no difficulty in securing the full number
as 1t is an exceptional opportunity to
secure an education without cost,
