the Monroe doctrine. The customs of ficers are to be subject to the civil and the penal Jurisdiction of the Domini- can republic without being regarded as subjects of that government. There is to be paid to the Dominican govern mert 45 per cent of the total gross amount collected in all the custom houses of the republic. that proportion of the revenue being for the necessi- ties of the administrative budget. The estimate in the protocol of January 20 that this 45 per cent shall be $90o,0o0 for the first year Is eliminated, as is also the agreement that the extraor- dinary expenses which may be occa- stoned in the collection of the customs duties shall be made for the account of the creditors of the republic (of Santo Domingo) without assigning to the latter any part thereof Any re- form of the Dominican tariff is to be subject to approval by the President of the United States. There shall be no increase of export duties or of the public debt of Santo Domingo but ex- port duties may be reduced or abol- ished by the authority of the Amerl- can government on the request of the Dominican government.
 The convention will not take effect until 1t shall have been ratified by the American Senate and the Dominican Congress.

STATEMENT BY MILES.
NO APOLOGY TO MAKE FOR TREAT
 MENT OF DAVIS.
Claims that He Acted COnscientlousiy
 In the Premises, Without Thought of Causing Any Humiliation to :, the Prisoner.

Boston, Feb. 7-In a statement is- sued today concerning the recent dis cussion of the imprisonment of Jef- ferson Davis at Fortress Monroe in 1s65-66, General Nelson A. Miles says:
 'SThe matter has been agitated at different periods during the last forty years, but never before has 1t been discussed in the halls of congress.
 "As far as my official action is con- cerned it was directed by the highest authority; it received the approval and has never been questioned by my su- periors or the government. I have no apology to offer of any kind to any person. The charge that the act of the highest officials of the govern ment or myself were prompted for thc purpose of humiliating Mir. Davis or the people who associated and sympa- tnized with him, Is as puerile as it is utterly untrue.
 Tt is to be regretted that the high officials, President Johnson. Secre: taries stanton and Dana, Judge Advo- cate General Holt and Major General Hallack are not living, in order that they might answer the vicious vitup- eration by which their names are noNs assailed. Still am sure that they ac- ted In good faith and, as they believed for the best interests of the country upon the information then in their possession and the condition of the country at that time"

Mr. Roae ConapIImentea.

Florence. Feb S.--(specfaI. )--In a recent issue of The American Field. the foremost sporting paper of America appeared the following editorial re- garding MT. David D. Rose of this city:
 There is a feeling among handlers that field trial judge should have the same expert knowledge of field trial dogs as the handler whose dogs he passes upon. One would not select q house and sign painter to sit in 1udg- ment upon the work of great artists :. The latest scheme Is to employ D. F .t Rose, the acknowledged peer of Amer- ica's best handlers. to judge all the field trials from Manitoba south. Mir. Rose will receive a regular salary for the season. and he will be known as the general field trial judge. He should have the right to select from a list fur nlshed him by the club, an assistant for every trial. If man should jump in and undertake to umpire base- ball game after seeing just two ball games played he would likely get mobbed before he got through, but un- piring a baseball game is snap com- pared with passing judgment upon Q Held of great bird dogs"

FRANCE EXPLAINS.
Complications With Turkey More Conn
 merciaI than Otherwise.

Complications With Turkey More Conn
 merciaI than Otherwise.
 Paris, Feb. S.-The officials say the complications with Turkey over the proposed loan and the ordering of guns for 'the re-armament of the Turkish artillery are more commercial than governmental, although the authorities here ar taking an active interest in the affair owing to the magnitude of the French commercial interests involved.
 The official version of the situation Is as follows: Turkey. desiring a new loan. offered to give contract for a hundred heavy guns as an inducement for securing the loan. Thereafter a syndicate of German banks undertook to hoat a loan and arrange with the Krupps to furnish a hundred guns. 1t recently developed that the Krupps were not likely to be able to deliver the guns within the time Turkey de- sired, owing to the present extensive demand for artillery. Thereupon Tur- key again turned to French banking and commercial quarters which were unwilling to furnish the loan without also furnishing guns. The matter is now pending with the expectation that the Porte, at a meeting today or to-. morrow. may decide to reopen the question with the view to placing both the loan and guns with French firms. In the meantime. Ambassador Constans was given large liberty of action, the steps he has taken being in the main toward hastening a favorable decision. The officials continue to regard the question as largely commercial, al- though they are seeking to assist French interests. They state positively that the question does not involve po- litical complications.

DeaT in Texa. prOnerty.

Beaumont, Tex. Feb. S.-The Port Arthur channel and dock company of Port Arthur, Tex, has been sold to s. W. Moore of Kansas City for s100.- 900. Mir. Moore represented Kansas City bondholders of the concern who have over a million and half dollars invested in the canal.
 The property covers the entire Port Arthur canal which runs from Sabine Pass to Tay1or's Bayou. distance of eight miles. It Is 1S3 feet in width at It's narrowest point and a depth of 25 feet Is maintained throughout which allows the largest sea-going vessels entering Sabine Pass to enter Port Arr thur harbor several miles above. The company also owned the docks and harbor facilities at Port Arthur which were constructed along Taylor's Bayou, navigable stream.

STATEHOOD BILL.

Measure is Slower in Reaching House
 Than Expected.
 Washington, Feb. 8.--The statehood bill as 1t passed the senate did not reach the house today as was expected. Nevertheless there has been lively work in that body on the part of the friends and opponents of the measure in its new form. When the bill is received 1t will be referred to the committee on states and territories.
 There is little doubt that this com mittee will ask for a conference. Should this occur the advocates of the measure in its present form will de- mand vote on a motion to concur in all of the senate amendments. It is understood the Democrats of the house will support this motion and the claim is made tonight that at least twenty seven Republicans have been secured to support it also. .Thi swould insure the concurrence of the house so that the remaining step in the statehood plan would simply be the signature Of the president to make tho bill a law. Should the bill be sent to conference the fight would be again reopened in the senate.

SENATE COMMITTEES REPORT ON
 ARBITRATION MEASURES.
Great Britain, Portugal, France, Swift EerIand, Germany, Italy, Spain and Austria Hungary
 Comprise List.

Washington, Feb. S.-The Senate Committee on Foreign Relations, by unanimous vote, today authorized fa- vorabIe report on the arbitration trea- ties between the United States and sew eral foreign Governments. An amend ment was adopted providing for the submission to the Senate of each claim to be arbitrated under the treaties.
 The treaties are with Great Britain, Portugal. France, Switzerland, Ger many, Italy, Spain and Austria-Hun- gary. They have been before the Sem ate throughout the entire session. Southern Senators opposed the treaties on the ground that 1t was believed they would permit the arbitration Of claims held against Southern States bv reason fbonds issued after the Civil War, and Senator Bacon offered two amendments which had been adopted by the Senate to the Olney- Pauncefote reciprocity treaty with Great Britain. These amendments pro yided that matters affecting the rights of any State should not be arbitrated and that every question to be aroi- trated should be first submitted to the Senate.
 Several members of the committee declared that if the amendments were adopted the treaties would not be ac- cepted by the foreign Governments ne- gotiating them with the United States. Senator Bacon agreed to withdraw the first amendment, saying he believed the latter amendment gave to the Southern States the, protection de- manded. Later he proposed that the treaties should be amended by pro- viJinE that each claim to be arbitrated shall be made the subject of special treaty" instead of by special agree ment as originally prescribed. This would require the action of the Sem ate on every claim. In this form the treaties were reported.

Illinois Representative Given Bounce
 by Colleagues.

Springfield. ILL. Feb. s.--Represen- tative Frank D. Comerford of Chicago today was expelled from membership in the lower hous eof the 44th general assembly of Illinois by vote of 121 to 13 because he had made unjustified charges against certain members of the Legislature.
 The expulsion followed a hearing of several days. during which Comerford tried to adduce evidence to support aspersions cast at his fellow 1egisla- tors during a speech in Chicago. He had asserted that certain men tried to buy votes for a minority Democratic leader at caucus in January. The Investigating committee found that these charges were not true. The de- fendant was allowed to plead his case before the whole House today, but at the close of his address only thirteen members voted against his expulsion.

HOcH's POISON.
Curare Believed to Have Been Instrh-
 memt Of Death.

Curare Believed to Have Been Instrh-
 ment of Death.
 Chicago, Feb. S.-Curare, the most subtle and deadly poison known to modern science is believed by Dr. Jo- seph Springer, formerly coroner's physician to have caused the death of Johann Hoch's wives.
 Dr. Springer is convinced the fatal drug was probably administered by means of engagement or wedding rings.
 "By turning the inner edge of the ring" said pr. Springer today. Tor making 1t rough or sharp in any mana ner, applying the curare on the rough edge and then slipping the ring on the finger so as to cause the slightest abrasion of the skin, death would fol- low.
 Tt would only be necessary for the slightest quantity of the poison to reach the blood. One sixtieth of a grain of curare is fatal"
