Acting Secretary Loomis has received a
cahlegram from Mr.. Hutchinson. United
States charge at Caracas. in answer to one
sent by him yesterday inquirng into the
decision of the courts there in the New
York ard Bermudez asphalt case. The
reply simply confirms the press report to
the effect that the court had declared the
Hamilton concession, under which the New
York and Bermudez Company originally
held title to the La Feicidad asphalt lake,
to have been forfeited by reason of nom
fulfillment of the terms of the concession,
and had ordered the appointment of ex-
perts to appraise the damages sustained by
the government on account OF the COM
pany's failure to meet it's obligations
That is the decision from which the press
reports stated yesterday the company had
appealed to the highest court-that of cas-
sation. 1t is pointed out here by one of
the representatives. of the company that
the company does not rely entirely for title
upon the Hamilton concession, but some
years ago took out patent for the lands
included in the original concession under
the Venezuelan land laws and is contest
ing the attempt 10 Gust it on that ground.
1t is stated that the United States govern
ment Will take no action in the case pend

VLADIvCsTOK NOT ISOLATED.
st. Petersburg Has No News of Rail-
way Line Cut.

ST. PETERSBURG, May 24.-The author
telegraphed from Tokyo to the London
Daily Telegraph to the effect that the Japa-
nese have cut the railroad to Vladivostok
and isolated that fortress. The director of
telegraphs informed the Associated Press
today that there are two lines to Vladivo-
stok, one direct by way of Khabarovsk, ST.
IBERIA, and the other via Harhin. The for
mer Is working, and no interruption of the
latter had been reported this morning from
Harbin, whence messages are constantly
irving. Inquiries on the subject have been
dispatched to Harbin.
The war office has no news of the railroad
being cut and the idea that the fortress is
surd though it is always possible that a
small raiding party might reach the rail-
road and temporarily damage it, 1t is con-
sidered impossible, however, that a Japa-
nese force of sufficient strength to hold the
railroad could have passed through the Rus
sian skirmish lines which keep in touch for
the entire distance between Gen. LineVitchs S
army and the division along the Tumen
river.
No Confirmation at London.
LONDON. May 24.-The Great Northern
Telegraph Company's office in London has
received no Intifnation tending to confirm
the statement cabled by the Tokyo CORE
spondent of the London Daily Telegraph
that the railroad line to Vladvostok has
been cut by the japanese, with the result
that the fortress is Isolated.
