CALL FOR IMMENSE SUM.
Bills to Place Volunteer Officers and
Men on Retired List.


Washington, March 3.-Estimates OF
the probable cost of the pending bills
to place volunteer officers and pri-
Yates of the Civil war on retired list
with pay were sent to the house COM
mittee on military affairs. The war
department estimate is that the bill
for officers alone would cost $11 ,00O,-
900 annually and that for officers and
men together would cost $S2,000,00O
annually. The estimate by the pen
sion bureau is that the cost for both
officers and men would be about $685.
100000 annually. The volunteer bill
proposes to place all officers of the
Civil war on half pay, according to
the grades they held at the time they
were mustered out of the service, and
for privates fiat rate of $50 a month
to all soldiers who served eighteen
months or more.
These figures are startling to the
committee and are certain to create
CONSERVATION among the Republican
leaders of the house, who are trying
to hold down expenses. The claim Is
made among the members of the mill
tary committee that IL both houses
shall agree to the pending PROPOSE
ton for paying increased pensions TO
widows of the Civil war, at net cost
of more than $15,000,000 year. the
military committee will be justified in
reporting and voting for the proposed
increases for officers and men.

DENMARK.
Copenhagen.

A recent telegram from Copen-
hagen states that Governor Cold, OF
the Danish West Indies, has resigned
from his post and will instead become
president Of the Scandinavian-Amer
lean steamship line to succeed Ad-
miral Richelen. 1t Is learned on good
authority that Mr.. Colds former Sec
rotary, Mr.. Limpricht, win be ap-
pointed governor Of the West Indies
to succeed Mr.. Cold. The latter has
been successful governor Of the ISL
ands and his resignation from his
position has caused universal regret.
Just at present leaving consump-
ton aside, cancer is claiming sur
prisingly large number Of victims In
Denmark. According to reliable stats
tics 10000 contract the deadly disease
every year. This is an appalling
number for so small country as Den
merk.
The use Of liquor continues to de-
crease throughout Denmark. Last
year 10000 crowns less were ex-
pended for brandy than during the
yr>ceding year and the decrease In
me consumption OF ale and beer ID Of
corresponding degree.

VENEZUELA DECLINES
Will Not Arbitrate Controversies
With the United States.
REFUSAL is MADE SPECIFIC
Each Question at Issue Presented
Separately for Mediation and
One and All Turned Down.

Washington, March 4.-Venezuela
has again declined to arbitrate the
questions at controversy which have
been pending for some time between
the Castro administration and the
American government. This time the
refusal Is made specific with respect
to each of the questions separately
and differs from the last refusal to
arbitrate in that the refusal then was
made as to all questions en- bloc.
1t was explained at the state de-
partment that the presentation by
Minister Russell of each of the five
points in dispute with a request for
arbitration leaves no foundation for a
future representation by Venezuela to
the effect that she was not asked TO
arbitrate any of the questions sepa-
rately. This would seem to clear up
the situation by maj ing it plain that
diplomacy can accomplish nothing fur.
Their toward settling those controver-
sizes.
That this deadlock will be made to
appear to the United States senate
when 1t receives the contents of the
files of the state department respect
ing Venezuela, information for which
1t asked last week, there can be no
doubt.
In asking arbitration of the differ
ences, the American government has
left open the ques ton of the machin-
cry of arbitration TO be employed.
This government would have been
glad to have had the controversy go
to The Hague. Failing in this, it is
believed any other duly appointed
tribunal would have been acceptable.

REPUBLICAN CHOSEN.
Former Governor Bradley Senator
From Kentucky.

Frankfort, KY, Feb. 2s.-Forner
Governor William o. Bradley has been
declared elected to the United States
senate after an exciting joint sitting
of the general assembly, receiving
four Democratic votes in addition to
the votes OF all Republicans present.
1t had been held from the beginning
of the contest over six weeks ago that
majority of a quorum was sufficient
for an election and with 126 members
present it required sixty-four votes
to elect. The votes of four Democrats
who have steadily refused to vote for
former Governor Beckham were trans
ferred from the various Democrats on
whom they had sought to make their
party associates unite to the Repub-
lican caucus nominee and his election
promptly followed.
