INTEGRITY OF VENEZUELAN COURTS
INQUIRY TO AMERICAN GOVERN
MENT COuCHED I'M RATHER
VIGOROUS LANGUAGE.

Washington, April l2.-.While the
officials here decline to make public
at this stage the text of President
Castro's reply to Minister Bowen's ar
bitration proposal it may be stated
that there was nothing personal to the
American minister in President Cas-
tros statement. So that if it should
be eventually held to be undiplomatic
and even rude then the injury will
be sustained by the state department
rather than by the minister and
therefore it is the former alone that
will be concerned. This is particularly
true of an inquiry from the Venezue-
Ian government as to whether the
United States presumed to question
the inquiry being couched III rather
vigorous language.
1t also appears that there is an
expressed disposition on the part OF
the Venezuelan government to localiZe
the issue by concentrating attention
upon the Olcott case, which was the
subject of an arbitration in 1903, thus
eyading the attempt on the part of the
state department TO rest its case prin-
cipally on the asphalt controversy. AS
a matter of fact the state department
has never been particularly strenuous
in it's efforts to force a settlement
Immediately in the Olcott case, or
any other minor pending claims, be-
ing willing to allow all these to be adj
justed at some future date through
the usual agency of an international
mixed commission. But it has pressed
the asphalt case principally because
the Venezuelan government in that
matter may establish a precedent that
will invalid every foreign concession.

ROCKEFELLER'S GIFT.
Foreign Missions Committee Issues
Public Statement.

Boston, April ia statement was
made public during the day by the
prudential committee of the American
board of commissioners for foreign
missions which Tuesday voted to ac-
cept 100000 offered to the board by
John d. Rockefeller.
The committee holds that the ac-
ton proposed by the protestants,
namely, the return of the gift, would
have been wrong, for it would express
"disapprobation and condemnation OF
a man when he was doing an act or
benevoence." The committee says:
This would have been to confuse
the issue and to act contrary to the
Christian spirit. To prevent any man
from doing good is wrong way in
which to condemn him for deing evil.
1t is as wrong to condemn him when
he is doing a good deed as to COM
mend him when he is doing a bad
one"
The committee also contends that
the board is not organized to judge
questions of temperance, economics or
socialism. The committee adds:
"Any accusation against him could
not, in Christian courtesy, be acted
upon until the case had first been
tried before the church, which en-
dorses him as a member in good anC
regular standing.

CREATE GREAT SENSATION.
Demands Made by Pan-Russian Con
uress of Attorneys.

st. Petersburg, April 13.-The rad
ical position taken by the Pan-Russian
congress of attorneys, which has been
meeting here, in its denunciation OF
the bureaucracy and its demand for
constitution and the similar stand
taken at a meeting of college profes-
sors have created a great sensation.
All the efforts of the government to
prevent the meetings being held by
prohibiting the delegates from assem-
hing in public were unavailing.
The action of these influential bod
les served TO emphasize the growing
outcry against the Bouligan commits
sion, which is proceeding with its
work without any representatives OF
the people, thus furnishing the liberals
with justification for the charge that
the execution of the reforms outlined
in the imperial rescript is completely
i'm the hands of the bureaucracy,
against which all classes of society
are fighting

sion of British Policy.


Lond IN, April 13.-Joseph Chamber
lain, pl esiding al the annual meeting
of the Liberal Unionist club, held in
London during the day, strongly sup
ported the suggestion of an Anglo
Japanese defensive alliance. He re-
feTred to the present Anglo-Japanese
alliance as one of the greatest diplo-
matte achievements of the last quar-
ter OF a century and said the treaty
had already justified itself by limiting
the area of the terrible conflict which
was going on The Liberal Unionists,
he added, would support Foreign Sec
retary Lansdowne in his determine
tion to carry out the treaty in its
spirit as well as in its letter and he
might say they would be very glad
to follow Lord Lansdowne further IL
the foreign secretary thought the pol
icy he had initiated could be extended.
Mr.. Chamberlain believed that an
mutual defensive understanding be
tween Japan and Great Britain woulG
secure for an indefinite time peace

no CONFIRMATION OF THE REPORT
RUSSIAN ADMIRALTY HAS NO IN
FORMATION AND DiSCRED-
ITS THE STORY.

st. Petersburg, April 13.-The ad-
miralty has no information in regard
to the alleged naval battle in prog
ress off the Anambas islands, as re-
ported to newspaper of Amsterdam
from Batavia, and does not credit the
possibility of a general naval battle
yet. The officials concede, however,
that the Japanese may have attempted
a torpedo boat attack on convoy
during the night. 1t is pointed out
that there is no cable connecting the
Anambas islands and Batavia and
that the first news of fight should
come from Singapore, unless the
Dutch warships are able to communi,
cate with Batavia by wireless tel
egraphy.

About Rheu matism.

There are few diseases that infiict
more torture than rheumatism and
there is no disease for which such yari-
cd and useless lot of remedies have been
suggested. TO say that it can be cured
is, therefore, bold statement to make
but Chamberlain's Pain Balm, which
enjoys an extensive sale, has met with
great success in the treatment OF the
disease. One application OF Pain Balm
will relieve the pain, and hundreds OF
sufferers have testified to permanent
cures by its use. Why suffer when Pain
Balm affords such quick relief and
costs but trifie? For sale by Stod
dard & Halstead.

RESORT TO NOVEL ExPEDiENT
Chicago Teamsters Block Traffic by
Claiming Wagons Together.

Chicago, April l3.-Henry Leylng-
berg, brush manufacturer, was
hauled from the seat OF a wagon and
beaten by a mob after having deliy-
cred a load of goods to Montgomery
Ward & Co., whose teamsters and
garmentmakers are on strike.
A novel expedient was resorted TO
by strike sympathizers to delay traf-
fic. At Clinton and Washington
streets several teamsters tied the
wheels of their wagons together with
chains. 1t took nearly twenty min
utes to break the resulting street
blockade obstructing Montgomery
Ward & Co.'S freight. The police
were forced to draw their clubs and
threaten many teamsters.

GUILTY OF BRUTAL CRIME.
Crawford Convicted of Boxcar Murder
at Elk River, MINI.

Elk River, Mimi, April l3.-Murder
in the first degree as charged in the
indictment was the verdict brought in
by the Jury against G. ID. Crawford,
the boxcar murderer.
Crawford listened unmoved to the
reading of the verdict and as soon as
the court adjourned he calmly lighted
a cigar and between several officials
returned to his cell.
Crawford was the only witness on
the stand for the defense. He ad
mitted having shot Lundin, but
claimed he fired simply to frighten
the boys, with no intention of killing
any of them. The lurching of the car
caused him to shoot lower than he in
tended. Robbery was the only motive

with these islands it is difficult to see
how Batavia could have got such

The question is often asked how
one treatment can be goad for every
thing. Is not pure air and pure water
beneficial to the system? If so, will
it not benefit every organ of the sys-
tenn to purify the blood, and elimi-
nate the large amount of poison that
collects in the system? Is not regulat-
ing the bowels beneficial to the entire
system, and absolutely necessary to
the proper condition of healths If so,
why should it not be just as necessary
to open up the seven million pores in
the skin, which is the sewerage of the
entire system, letting off the deadly
poison which thousands of people are
carrying about in their bodies perfect
ignorant of their condition. You can
easily see this process of renovation
can not help but benefit every part of
the human machinery.

RAILROAD MATTERS.

The Barber county members of
the Medicine Valley & Western
Railroad, went to Anthony Mon
day evening to attend another
meeting of the Company which
was held yesterday. While they
expect to formulate some plans at
this meeting, they will have no def
mite information to give to the pub
lie until after the bond elections
are held in the western counties
next month. -Four counties in west
ern Kansas will hold elections.
The failure Of Mingona and
Turkey Creek townships to vote
aid in this county has handicapped
the company quite little, but if
the other counties vote bonds it is
very probable that the roa d will be
built.In the event that it is,it is like
ly that neither of these townships
will get station. Some of the sup
porters of the bonds in those town
ships are agitating another cleo
ton but it is not likely it will be
called unless the citizens of the
townships desiring it, subscribe
sufficient money to cover the cleo
ton expenses.

HOUSE BURNED.

VIM. Curtis farm house six miles
south and one mile west of this
city was consumed by fire last Fri
day night. The entire contents to-
gether with the house were DESTROY
ed. Mr.. Curtis and family reside
In the city the greater portion of
the time and were not at the farm
the night of the fire. The house
contained considerable furniture,
some harness and two good sad
dies. No insurance. The cause
OF the fire is a hidden mystery.
There was no electrical storm that
night and hence can not be attri-
butable to lightning, and no fire of
any kind had been built in any
stove in the house for several days
so that there can be no defective
fiue or gasoline explosion theory.
1t is the general opinion that the
tlre was planned by someone bent
either on revenge or pure devil
ment. If the community has a
citizen of that caliber he is needed
in the coal mines at Lansing.
Barber county can get along with
out him.

THEY WENT TO BLISS.

Thirty-nine people took advan-
tage of the excursion trip to Bliss,
Ok, on Sunday, at this place, and
thirty-nine people returned home
at 10 a. m. Monday, very tired and
feeling as though they had been
up against a bunco game. They
left here at 3 a. m. in the morning
and did not get to the "Io1" ranch
until 3 Pm They saw the Show
then sat out on the prairie waiting
for a train until the following
morning at 2. There were no
seats but they had the pleasure of
tip toeing and ''rubbering' over
crowd of about $4,000. The lux
uries consisted of mud and water
at five glass and an occasional
sandwich while they lasted. They
were given free ride on "shank's'
nOrSeS from the railroad to the
ranch and back, distance of
about three miles in all, not saying
anything about promenading up
and down the track to run down
the 'kivered keers.'
A space on a plank cost only IS
cents but there were not boards to
supply more than one fourth Of the
crowd.
1t was a most delightful trip,
and an occasion 'Iong to be re-
membered. 1t was great graft
for the Millers, the owners of the
ranch,and the multitudes of people
who paid the freight will know
better next time.
