In 1904 Mr.. johnson had the earnest
support of almost every timber baron
in the state-one of them boasts that
he expended 500, 900 in his behalf that
year. Two years ago Mr.. Johnson
again found favor in the eyes OF the
saw-logs' nabobs. This year, the
pine barons are with johnson to a
man. Tom Shevlin, the man the Days
have repeatedly denounced as a
pine-thief, is betting his money on
johnson. The Johnson newspapers
are treating the lumbermen very
nicely this year. Their editors have

as "rascally pine thieves" and

STEAMER GOES ASHORE.
Similarity of Fog Signals Given as
the Cause.

Woods Hole, Mass, March ia
similarity between the fog signal on
the new Hen and Chickens lightship
and that on the Vineyard sound light
ship is said to have been the cause of
the grounding of the British steamer
Silvia, from New York for Halifax, N.
S., and st. Johns, N. F., on the Sow
and Pigs reef at the entrance to Vine
yard sound. The thirty-five passen.
gers on the Silvia, among whom were
the crew of the wrecked schooner
Beta, expressed themselves as willing
to remain on the stranded steamer
until the tug Orion, which was also
bound east, made trip to this port
for help. Arrangements were made,
however, to take them off and send
them to Boston.
At the time of the accident there
was a thick fog, but the sea was
smooth and there was little wind.
The Silvia grounded within a short
distance of the scene of the wreck of
the steamer Fairfax In November,
1898, and it was the opinion of
mariners of this place that she would
have considerable difficulty in extri'
eating herself from her position.

KING EDWARD RESPONSIBLE

spondence has been in progress be-

German courts since the fact became

personal letter to Lord Tweedmouth,
first lord of the British admiralty, in
February, supposedly concerning the
British naval estimates. Through this
channel news has reached the German
court that 1t was King Edward him.
self who permitted the information
about Emperor Williams letter to be
communicated to the London Times.
Unwillingness to publish his majesty's
communication and Lord Tweed
mouths reply was expressed on the
English side because. as was inti-
mated at the time, to do SO might
embarrass Lord Tweedmouth. For
this reason the emperor did not give
his consent for publication. Copies
of the letters in question, however,
have been shown to various persons,
who are able to say, as result of
their own reading, that the letter of
Emperor William contained nothing
that could be construed into interfer-
ence with the naval plans Of Great
Britain.

In addition Japan agrees to adopt and
enforce strict regulations to prevent
future traffic in arms and ammuni-

refuses to include the territory of
Macao in this limitation.
China will soon take up negotia-

traband traffic at Macao. She hopes
that an accurate delimitation of Portu-
guese waters at Macao now will be
secured and that the gambling for
which Macao is notorious, as well as
the smuggling done through that port,
may be materially restricted.

FRANCE IS SURPRISED
Successful Trip Of Our BattIeship
Fleet a Revelation.
HAD ANTICIPATED TROUBLE
Believed Long Voyage Would Develop
Structural Weaknesses in the Yes
seis or at Least Serious Breakdowns
in the Engine Rooms.

Paris, March 16.-News of the de-
cision to send the American battleship
fleet back to the Atlantic coast by way
of Australia and the Suez canal is
received here as a crowning Sevela-
ticn of the efficiency of the American
navy. The statement that the cruise
is to be extended in this manner has
opened the eyes of the French, public,
which had been led to believe that the
American navy was a good deal of a
bluff" that the cruise around South
America would demonstrate the inca
pacity of the vessels and that If 1t
was accomplished the ships would be
ready for the scrap heap. Even in
French naval circles the belief was
that the long voyage would develop
structural weaknesses in the vessels
themselves, or at least serious break
downs in the engine rooms. In view
of these opinions the announcement
that the fleet arrived at Magdalena
bay ahead of her schedule, ready for
target practice and in better condition
than when ii sailed from Hampton
Roads in December has created all
the more astonishment.
Many French officers now frankly
say that the impressive demonstra-
tion given by the American fleet OF
its ability to keep at sea raises the
American navy to an equality with
that OF Great Britain and that II the
return journey is as successful as the

BIG FINE CONFIRMED
American Asphalt Company Must
Pay Venezuela $4,000, 900.
AIDED MATOS REVOLUTION

Castro Government Holds Concern
Liable for the Estimated Cost of
Putting Down the RevoIt-one
More Chance to Appeal.
Caracas, Venezuela, March 16.-The
superior court of Venezuela has hand
ed down a verdict confirming the judg-
ment of the lower court which con-
demned the New York and Bermudez
Asphalt company to pay fine of
$5,000,000 to the Venezuelan govern
ment for having extended assistance
directed against President Castro.
This sum is the estimated cost of put.
ting down the revolution. The com
pany will appeal to the court Of cassa-
tion.
The finding of the lower court re-
ferred to in the above dispatch, which
Is the civil court of first instance, was
handed down in August of last year.
The appeal to the court of cessation
is now the only thing that remains to
the company so far as the situation in
Venezuela is concerned.
1t was from American witnesses and
from testimony taken before American
judges In United States courts that
the Venezuelan government obtained
its most important proof of the part
alleged to have been played by the
asphalt company in the Matos revo
luton, the furnishing of the money
with which to start the fight.
The controversy between the as
phalt company and the Venezu elan
government has been long and bitter
and was In a critical state at the time
that Herbert w. Bowen was American
minister at Caracas. On this occasion
the state department sent what was
practically an ultimatum to Venezu
ella in regard to the matter.

ed the Matos revolution with funds
has been substantiated, officials of the
company having testified to the truth
