DIPLOMATIC RELATIONS.
Official News of Action Not Yet Re

Move Awaited.

Washington, Jan. 10. = All diplomatic
relations between Venezuela and France
are broken, 1t is said at the state depart
ment, and although it is stated no for
NAL or official information to this effect
has been received, the officials assume
that in accordance with the usual pro-
cedure this will involve the early de-
parture from Venezuela of M. Taigny,
the French representative there, and
from France of M. Marlborough, the
Venezuelan agent at Paris. The off
Gals here are awaiting the turn OF
events with keen interest, although it is
expressly stated that definite news re
garding the next step that France will
take is yet to be received. In the event
that the request is made by France it is
stated permission will be cabled to Min
lister Russell to look after French in
terests.
1t is admitted that the relations be-
tween President Castro and Minister
Russell are not all that could be de-
sired. The negotiations regarding

Secretary Root is determined to ex-
haust every method of diplomatic
procedure and has directed Minister
Russell to take up the Critchfield
claim which is without complications
and involves no charge on the part of
President Castr9 that the company
engaged in abetting a revolution. This
company invested about 100000 in
railroad and an asphalt plant under
agreement that they were to be ex.
empt from all except few specified
taxes. 1t is charged that about a
year ago President Castro imposed a
prohibitory tax on the company, in
violation Of the agreement. The
Critchfield claim is regarded by the
Washington government as a fair
claim and Mr.. Russell will devote his
best endeavors to having II imme.

FIELDS CONDITION SERIOUS
Illnesss Of Chicago Merchant APP
preaching Crisis-Both Lungs
Said to Be Affected.

New York, Jan. 13.-Marshall Field,
the millionaire Chicago merchant, who
is suffering from an attack of pneu-
monia at the Holland house, is in Sc
rious condition. The disease, it is said,
has affected both lungs, and though the
condition of the patient showed NO
change during the night, its progress
until the seventh or ninth day will be
watched with apprehension.
The attack is more sysere than at
first admitted. lMr. Fields condition
Friday morning might properly be de-
scribed as the indeterminate stage, from
which any development, in @ man Of
Mr.. Fields years, is possible. The ply
sicians have not made public the tenn
perature and pulse of the patient, which
in pneumonia tells the complete story.
1t is understood that Mr.. Fields heart
action is all that might be expected un-
der the circumstances,
Mr.. Field passed o somewhat restless
night, though his physicians pronounced
him no worse Friday.
DIR. w. B. James, one of the leading
physicians attending Mr.. Field, issued
the following statement: 1.-THE pa
tents condition continues about the
same. He is no worse. He passsd 4

DR.. Frank Billings, of Chicago, fam.
lily physician of Mr.. Field, arrived from
Chicago at 10: 80 o'clock and went imme-
diately to the Holland house and Field

ALL CONDITIONS APPEAR FA-
WORKABLE FOR TRADE.
Industrial Troubles in Some Sections
Better Outlook for Work
ers in Others.

New York, Jan. 15. R. G.. Dun &
Co.'s Weekly Review of Trade says:
"Seasonable weather more than Offset
the effect on business conditions of in
creased strife between labor and CAPT
tall Low temperature and snow
brought out the backward demand for
heavyweight wearing apparel and rub
Der goods, restoring the one tagging
trade factor, and the other departments
Of jobbins and manufacturing con-
ttnued vigorously engaged in preparing
for the future, except where few
strikes produced hesitation. Thus far
these struggles have not affected any
large percentage of the wage earners,
while in other industries the higher
scales effective January / have added
to the purchasing power Of many thou
sand workers. Railway blockades cause
complaint In several important cen
ters, yet earnings for December were
So per cent. larger than in 1904. For
eign commerce returns at this port for
the last week showed an increase OF
$8,233,053 over the exports year ago,
while imports decreased $97s;447-a
tritling loss after the sensational gain
Of the previous week. Annual reports
are SURPRISING expectations in most
cases, and settlements are made with
desirable promptness.
Failures this week numbered 300 in
the United States, against 324 last year,
and 81 in Canada, compared with % q
year ago."
Bradstrset's seys: Though unfayor=
able weather conditions have deferred
distribution of heavy wearing appar-
ell, autumn-like temperatures continue
to favor outdoor operations, to prolong
the demand for building materials and
to prevent cessation Of labor at a
period when there is always more or
less enforced idleness. Mining lines,
particularly iron and steel, machinery
and interrelatsd Industries are active
as heretofore, and the outlook for 1905
grows even more promising, while the
general tendency is for prices of fin
ished products to advance. Clearance
sales rule in retail lines, but it is es-
peoially noteworthy that orders on
spring account are Of large proper
lions; that prompt shipments are be:
ing demanded and that the season has
opened three weeks to a month in adj
vance Of the usual date. incidentally
annual inventories, now virtually COM
pleted, make exceptional showings
thus corroborating earlier reports of q
heavier turn over In 1905. Gommodit5
prices on the whole have reached q
record level, though food stuffs range
somewhat lower than manufactured
products, Railway lines are engaged
in transporting heavy volume OF
business and the car supply is slightly
better, though in certain sections, the
south, for instance, congestion pre-
walls. Collections average fair to good
all depending on the territory consid-

Paris, Jan. 15.-An official note says

War Cloud Rising.
Washington, Jan. 15.-A new war
cloud is rising on the international
horizon, and this time 1t is casting its
shadow over the American continent.
France, it is believed by many gov
eminent officials here, will very speed
lily deliver an ultimatum to Venezuela,
following the breaking off of diplo-
matte relations between the two coun-
tries This spells war, as it seems GER
tain that President Castro will persist
in his stubborn refusal to yield to
Frances demands.
Such refusal is bound greatly to ag.
gravate the present ugly temper of the
French government and people over
the humiliating position in which
Castro has placed France, and will
certainly bring bombardment OF
Venezuelan ports by French warships
An attack upon the Venezuelan
ports, it is declared by officials who
are in close touch with the French
ambassador here, may be expected
within few days unless Castro backs
down or the United States or some
other country intervenes as a medi

Castro Preparing for War.
Castro, it is known, is rushing all
preparations for war This imbroglic
with France has added greatly to his
popularity in Venezuela, and he has g
united country behind him. By stern
measures and appeals to the patriot
ism of his people he has quelled al
signs of revolt and is Strengthening
and drilling his army, which is now g
large force, for war. He has equipped
ii with modern rifles and artillery ant
has established SOME fine batteries Of
high power, long range guns to guard
each of the country's ports.
He believes these batteries sufficient
1y powerful to hold back a large fee,
of French warshps
He seems to be perfectly confident
despite his war preparations, that
France dare not attempt an armed in
yasion, relying on the respect Of the
French government for the Monroe doe
trine to prevent such action. He also
believes, according to his officers, that
France would not dare attempt sucf
an invasion, except with large army
as the French kDow that he has 6
strong and we11-saaipDed military
force France at this junstnre, with
her relations with Germany Sc
strained, he argues, would not dare te
weaken her home defensive power by
sending any large force to Venezuela
Views In French official circles, how
ever, are entirely different. Indigna
ton is so strong in France that it is
believed certain the government will
shatter Castro's dreams of security
with a naval attack that will seel
bring him to his knees.
