Dr. Paul appears to believe that thesc issues might be settled by a chauge in the American legation at Caracas, in view of the shiained rela- tions between President t‘astro and Mr. Bowen. He is awaitizz the text of the communication from President Castro relative to the, arbitration pro- posal, which document is ¢a route to ‘Washington by mail. As an impression ‘appaiently pre- vails t0 some extent not osiv in Ven- ezuela but in this country that Minis- ter Bowen has incurrgd the il will of President Castro by dn excsss of zeal in the presentation Of thé American claims against Venezuela it may be stated that official inguiry from Wash- ington has developed the fau; that Mr. Bowen merely presented tofthe Ven- ezuelan government the 1;reu;o in- structions sent to him from department relative to asbitration; that he did not add to or fake from those instructions in the siightest de- gree, but in fact effaced himself, so the fact is that the state dgpartment and not Mr. Bowen i5 respoasible for this presentment which has So stirred the Venezuelan government.® In view of the statement from Dr. Paul touching Mr. Bowexn 1* can be added upon the highest aurhwlt} that, in the view of the administration, the doctor has no official standing and whatever communication he makes to the president or siate departraent can - SRMEATRSNg N CIEE o Deaging. It l s dissatisfied with Mr. Bowen he must have recourse to the regular diplomatic chanmnels and communicate that fact formally to this government, which cannot receive representations on a subject from other sources.

Washington, March 31.—Mr. Leger, the Haytian minister, has received a cablegram from the president of Hayti contradicting the cablegram of Minis- ter Powell stating that serious trouble is impending in Hayti and that it is doubttul whether the authorities can maintain peace and order. According to Minister Leger’s ad- vices the country is quiet and there is no fear of an uprising; the law con- cerning the Syrians is being executed peacefully and the government can maintain order.

Church, Grove, Md., writes: ‘‘About seven or eightyears ago I had a very severe cold which physicians said was very near pneumonia, and which they afterwards proncunced consumption. Through a friend I was induced to try a sample of Foley’s Honey and Tar, which gave me so, much relief that I bought some of the regular size. Two or three bottles cured me of what the physicians called consumption, and I have never had any trouble with my throat or lungs since that time.”” Threglzes—zsc. 50c, $1.090. The 50 cent size contains two and i one-half times as much as the small size and the $1.00 bottle almost six times as much.

St. Petersburg, March 31.—The news from the front taday indicates that Field Marchal Oyama has begun a genuine advance movement of the main army with the wiags far extend- ed. Heavy reconnaissances are being made agzainst the Russian center with the object of developing the Russian position. 8t, Petersburg, March 31.—It is un- derstood that the imperial commis- sion under the presidercy of Grand Duke Nicholas- Nicholaievitch, which has been considering the question of prosecuting the war, has completed its preliminary report, which favors a continuation of the war, finding noth- ing in the present situation either financial or militaxy to prevent its prosecution. There is no further peace news. All eyes are centered on Washington and Paris, where developments are an- ticipated. The Washington d. aiches are scauned with especial eagerness. The reports of Presideni Roosevell’s er Takahira and conferences with Mini and Ambassadors Jusserand Lternburg, in spite of official de are believed in diplomatic cir to relate to the opening of unesotii- tions. The foreign otfice continues to maintain. that Russia bas taken no officisl step, which certainly is liter- ally true. 7l is an imporiant &d- mission, however, that Ambassador | Jusseraud, upon his ity, may have given Pres. velt the French idea of Russia’s posi- tion. - The French cmbassy aiso in- sists that it has no. knowledge of what move, if any, has becn made. The attitude all the parties con: ded as wieH tuaily be- cerned, lowever, is only 1 natural at such a defitate the negotiations have not a gun. REPORT SAID TO BE UNTRUE.

St. Petersburg, March 31.—The em- peror has given an answer to the petition. of the Finnish diet asking that all imperial decrces since the diet -of 1899, which it is claimed are in contravention of the organic law of Finland, be withdrawn or submitted for the approval of the diet. These Igcluded the military conscription act, the manifesto-of 1899 placing the im- perial interests in Finland under the s; the language mamle;lu of 190v, providing for the use of the Russian language in the principal departments, the irremov- ability of judges, the employment of ns in public departments, the restriction upon the senate’s parct in the administration. and the concentra- tion of the executive power in the hands of the governor gcneral.

D, March 31'—In- formation received here from an un- questioned source indicates that the Milwaukee railroad will not be ex- tended to the Black Hills, this year at least. The stated agreement existing be- different roads will not permit the Milwaukee company to build to the Hills this year, but that company is at liberty to tap the cat- tie country west of Chamberlain for a limited distance, but not far enough | to interfere with the Black Hills traf- fic on other roads.
