LIEUT.. JORDAN RETIRED.
Action Of Police Board in His Case
Today.

Lieut.. w. w. Jordan of the seventh police
precinct appeared before the retiring board
at police headquarters this afternoon The
hoard was composed Of Capts. Swindelfs
and Pearson and Lieut.. Byrnes. The three
police surgeons were examined and their
testimony was such as to cause the board
to reach the conclusion that the lieutenant
should be retired. In all probability the
board will recommend pension OF $75 a
month. Maj. Sylvester said this afternoon
that he had not yet given much thought to
the matter Of who Is to succeed Lieut.. Jor-
dan. He has not yet received the report Of
the retiring board and until some action Is
taken in that case there will be no vacancy
to be filed.
1t is stated that there will probably be
several other police officials retired in the
near future. Some Of them have been in
the service many years and Maj Sylvester
desires to get the services OF men who are
younger and more active. 1t IL thought
that two or more OF the older men will
soon ask to be retired as they realise that
they are not the active men that should be
ON duty to assist the superintendent where
more active men are most needed.

Minister Dawson Calls at the State De-
partment

Mr.. Thomas G. Dawson United States
minister TO Santo Domingo, has just ar

his respects TO Acting Secretary Loomis at

of absence, which he will spend at his home
in this city, recuperating from an illness
suffered by him while in Santo Domingo
Mr.. Dawson reports conditions in the Do
minican republic as very satisfactory.
Since he has been minister there have been
no revolutionary disturbances and profound
peace prevails.
The American conduct of the customs ad-
ministration. he says, has been attended
by good results and the island revenues

any quarter 1t Is confined to that small
restless element which exists in happiness
only In times of turmoil and trouble. The
material interests of the republic are ce-
seloping rapidly. according to Mr.. Daw-
son, and the latest cacao crop exceeded In

$4,000 THE PRICE.
Reported Sale Of Piece of 18th Street
Property,

1t was currently reported in real estate
circles today that Mr. James M. Johnston
had received through Wescott & Story, real
estate brokers. an offer of $4,000 for the
property 713 18th street. 1t is understood
that he decided to accept it. The name of
the person who made the offer and the pur-
pose in making the purchase Is not known.
The interest in this reported transaction
lies mainly In the price. which is the
largest ever paid for a piece of property OF
that size In that locality. The lot has only
a frontage Of eighteen feet and a depth Of
104 feet. On the basis of the reported fig
ures the per foot price was between $26
and 81.
This estimate does not include the value
Of the improvements, and 1t is not be-
lieyed that they have much value. A
three-story house which has been adapted
for use for business purposes occupies the
lot. It adjOins on the north Of the Colo
RADIO building and is now under lease to
Mr.. Ben B. Bradford, who has his ONCE
there.
1t Is conjectured that the purchaser is
probably the owner OF the building I'D
joining on the north. and that 1t will re-
suit in enabling Moore & Hill, real estate
brokers. to enlarge their present ofaces

CASTRO TO CONGRESS
HIS ANNUAL MESSAGE READ AT
CARACAS YESTERDAY.

CARACAS, Venezuela, Thursday, June
1.-President Castro read his message to
congress TO-DAY. He said in part that the
Venezuelan government mad maintained
good relations with foreign countries in the
degree their respective representatives de-
sired. Therefore the relations of Venezuela
with all countries were relatively cordial
The government had aeceded to the desires
of the respective representatives of foreign
countries as far as justice, equity and dig
nifty and honor of the nation permitted. On
the other hand Venezuela had duly paid the
allies the amounts peremptorily demanded
by them and had then paid them 80 per
cent of the customs duties collected at La
Guaira and Puerto Cabello
When the claims of the allies had been
paid 30 per cent of the customs duties OF
La Guaira and Puerto Cabello would be
devoted to the payment OF the claims OF
the QtLer powers which had been presented
PRACTICALLY. In regard to the debts of Vene-
zuela other than the claims of the powers
previously referred to the government or
Venezuela had twice sent Gen. Jose Antonio
Velutni to Europe to make new arrange
ments with her creditors

Continuing the president said: Il have
the satisfaction to announce that such ar
engagements have already been made That
the agreements have been signed and that
the arrangement relating to the Discount
Bank of Berlin has been ratified by the
German government.
''As soon as it is ratified here Gen. Velu,

also ratify the new arrangement made Ior

this matter to have been definitely settled
with the German and British holders or
Venezuelan bonds. These measures are ex-
ceedingIy important TO the credit of Ven
ezuela and in promoting tranquility and
harmony with foreign nations Venezuela.

ecuting the terms of the protocols.
with the United States. through causes
foreign to our will and without the least
responsibility on our part, we have had
slight difference. but the discussion of the
question seems to have made the facts
clear to the American government. judging
from the measures the said government
lately passed in favor of our good and cor
dial friendship. These questions refer to
the Bermudez and Orinoco companies. The
latter have already been adjudged under
the protocols. but, nevertheless. Mr.. Bowen
desired new arbitration. The government
could not accede to this, as the sovereignty
and independence of the republic were in
volved.
In conclusion. the president expressed the
hope that diplomatic relations between Ven
ezuela and Colombia would be renewed at
no distant date.

Alleged Defiance Of Order.
NO TRUTH IN PEACE STORY.
France Not Agreed to Ask Consent Of
Powers

PARIS, June 2.-The report that M.
Bompard. the French ambassador to Rus
STA. who has been here leave of alb
sence. Is fastening back to st. Petersburg,
as France has agreed to ask the consent OF
the powers to bring about peace between
Russia and Japan, is said to be by the Of
ficials here incorrect.
M. Bompard. it appears. is not returning
to ST. Petersburg. He attended the recep-
ton given by President Loubet last night
in honor of King Alfonso. where Mr.. Nc
Cormick. the American ambassador. had a
long talk with the French ambassador. M.
Bompard intends to remain here week or
: ten days. which would seem to confirm the
reports that the peace situation at St.
Petersburg has not reached decisive
state.
There is reason to believe that he shares
the views of other diplomats having per-
sonal acquaintance with the Russian Of
ficials that the peace outlook Is not bright.
The .rend of opinion in this well-informed
quarter is that Russia will put off decisive
action until after the next land battle. In
the meantime it Is anticipated that tenta-
tive peace projects are likely to be put for
ward from various sources leading to more
or less sounding among the powers. but
diplomatic circles here are satisfied that
these movements will not eventuate while
General Lnevitch's forces remain intact.
However. it is said that the departure OF
the SIranO Duke Mlcnael (DrOtner OF En-
peror NichOlas) to attend the wedding at
Berlin of Crown Prince Frederick William
may prove an important factor in the peace
situation.
The following official note was issued to-
day:
m. Bompard Is still In Paris. There
fore ii is not true that he has been re-
called to st. Petersburg. 1t is equally In
correct that France has addressed an ap-
peal to the powers with the view of con-
sulting them on the situation.

Statement by Gen. Harries.

Vice President and General Manager Har-
ries of the Washington Electric Railroad
Company was seen by reporter of The
Star this morning. In discussing the situa
ton priors to his conference with Justice
Anderson he said:
No, the City and Suburban Railroad
Company is not receiving transfers this
morning from connecting lines. The fact is
the lines in the city have done everything
in their power to help the situation by re-
ceiving for fares, transfers issued by the
City and Suburban road. 1t could do no
more. From what can learn of the situa-
ton 1t Will be next to impossible for the
companies / represent to even be prepared
to carry out Justice AnderSonS intent as
embraced in his recent order, in which he
proposes to restore the status quo for ten
days in order that the railroad companies
be given an opportunity TO agree upon some
other ARRANGEMENT. Now. in the first place
the connecting lines have nothing to con-
fer over. We stand willing to give and re-
ceve transfers TO and from the City ana
Suburban line. The court says the City and
Suburban line is not 10 receive our trans
fers and then suspends the order
Meanwhile we notify the company which
has the contract for printing the transfers
that we sha" not require any FOR the CITY
and Suburban line after June /. We ar
range to have just enough TO carry us until
June !. the date the original order went
into effect. There are none remaining, and
We cannot get lreSh supply Tor at least
two weeks. The order only runs ten days.
That's the situation"
The company. however, according to the
statement made to the court. later arranged
for restoration OF the transfers.
In Fighting Mood.
The advocates of the free transfer sys-
TEN. however. are In a fighting mood. They
are going to insist upon free transfers. and
claim they have the right under the law
to receive the same going and coming. Mr..
A. II. Server. who is the legal representa-
tive OF the citizens. takes the position that
the company has no alternative in the mat
ter.
1T must" he says. both give and re-
ceive transfers, or violate an act of Con-
gress. Here is what the law says upon the
case. Turning to the twenty-eigth Stat
utes at Large. page us. section 5, he read
as follows:
THAT the Metropolitan Railroad Com
pany is hereby authorized and required
Immediately to make reciprocal transfer ar
engagements with street railroad companies
whose lines now connect with its lines and
to furnish such facilities therefor as the
public convenience may require.
Provided. That every street railroad
company In the District of Columbia whose
lines connect or whose lines may hereafter
connect. with the lines of any other street
railway company. is hereby subjected to
the same requirements as to transfers and
trackage arrangements and upon similar
conditions as in this section provided in the
case OF the Metropolitan Railroad Company
and the 4nes connecting herewith
now you will Observe" continued Mr..
