VICTOR' SALAZAR. Does Not Like United States. Since 102, when Admiral Casey refused to permit transportation of Colombian troops on the Panama rafiroad, General Baluzar has entertained a bitter dislike for “ the people of the United States. At that time he cabled, through the Assoclated Press, a sensational protest to the world fgainst the action of Admiral Casey. Gen- eral Salazar is most influential among the younger element of the Colombians. He is courageous and energetic, but of a Quixotic nature, and probably belleves that his statement that an army of 100,000 is being organized will stun the people of the new republic, El Duende in its last night's edition #ays; “The Panamanians alone do not fear the Colomblans, but they fear them less now that they are assured of the aid of thelr Yankee brothers." It is belleved here that any orgawization of a blg army by Colombia will result in the downfall of President Marroquin's gov- ernment. brought about by the liberals, or & combination of the nationalists. | WAIL ExBatrinte Maleontents.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 22.—The press of Colombia continues to severely criticlse and denounce the American government for its action in jsthmian matters and the recogni- tion of the Republic of Panama. This is shown 1In a dispatch recelved at the State department late last night from Minister Beaupre at Bogota. President Roosevelt, the Amerfean congress and the American Ppeople are targets of violent denunclations. ‘The minister's dispatches make no ref- erence as to the time when he intends to leavo Bogota on the leave of absence granted him by the State department. No uneasiness is felt by the department for the minister's personal safety. Hon. Henry L. Wilson, the United States ninister to Chill, in a dispatch to the State departmeént reports that the action of the United States in the Panama matter is re- celving the support of the press and the Bading people of that country. They look With favor on the acts of the United States and expressed the opinfon that it has acted rightly in isthmian affairs. The people in Chilf are In favor of the construction of the canal, the minister says, Mr, Boyd left this city today, presumably for New York, where Minister Varilla has preceded him. Colombian Delegates Arrive. Representatives from the state of Bollvar ‘Who came to the United States via Galves- ton arrived at Washington today. They are Dominico Jimines and Antonio R. Blanco. 'I'hey are accompanied by thelr secretary, Julio C. Zaniga. The party went at once to call on Dr. Herran, the charge of the Colmblan legation, with whom they spent the greater portion of the evening. When the commissioners left thelr native country all was obscurity and confusion thero regarding the condition of affairs on the Isthmus, except that it was known that a revolution had taken place. They came to Washington to get a clear under- standing of the situation. Events on the isthmus, however, followed each other with such rapidity that the commissioners were fully informed of the state of affairs before they reached Washington. The commissioners have no diplomatie fune- tlon whatsoever, said Dr. Herran, and what report they take back to thelr own country will be made to the governor of Bollvar only. Bhould the latier desire, he will transmit the information obtained to Bo- gota, The duration of the stay of the min- isters In Washington is not known. Admiral Coghlan has telographed the Navy department the departure of General Reyes from Colon by steamer to one of the gulf ports.

The pope today received a deputation of parish priests from Venice, who reminded him that he took possession of the patri- archate of Venice November 22, exactly nine years ngo. The pope replied in a most kindly manner, speaking the Venetian dia. lect, as he did before he was raised to the pontificate.

There are no other detalls In the minister's message. The Navy department has been informed of the arrival of the United States steamer Newport at San Domlngo city. It relieves the crulser Baltimore, which has gone to San Juan for coal. AUSTRO-HUNGARY HAS TRUST Methods Are Objected to, but Ofl Cartel Will Probably Not Be Controlled, VIENNA, Nov. 2.—Much ndignation ts expressed here over the steadily increasing price of oll. Since the formation of the Austro-Hungarian petfoleum cartel prices have been advanced 50 per cent, with the prospect that they will go still higher as ®oon as the present stocks becon.e ex- hausted. The advance Inflicts the greatest hardship on the poorer classes, especially on the thousands of tailors and dress- makers who work in their own homes. The local authorities of the several districts have taken the matter up and are urging the city council to use every means to break up the ofl monopoly. There is, how- over; not the slightest prospect that these efforts will be successful. The cartel has completed its organization, the only ma ter remaining still unsettied relating to the export trade. Both the Standard Oll company and the Deutsche bank are con- tinuing thelr efforts to come to an agree- ment with the cartel regarding the Ger- man market, but a strong section of the Austrian refiners wish the cartel to remain independent of these parties. hANADIAN STOCKMEN ANGRY Say Thes Wil Not Exhibit at St. Loals Unless Condit Changed. Nov, 20.—Nego- e between the OTTAWA, Nov. 22.—It is understood that the directors of the St. Louls exposition are unwilling to meet representatives of the live stock interests of Canada until the latter decide whether or not they will exhibit at 8t. Louls. This attitude is hardly likely to bring about any change of front on the part of the breeders and stockmen of Canada. In fact, the likelihood is that they will to 8t. Louls unless there is'a dectded modi- fication of the regulations under which Canadian animals are admitted into the United States, as well as of the condition upon which the prize lists are based. Breed- ers in Canada freely express the opinion that those engaged in similar pursuits in the United States are afraid of Canadian competition. This fear, they say, is based upon the success which live stock exhibits achleved at Philadelphia, Chicago and Buf- talo. ‘ PRAISE FOR RUSSIAN TROOPS Were Engaged in A Who Have Not Made R entations.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 22.—(Speclal.)—~The American consul is the bag-man of the government. The only difference between the travellng salesman for a commercial house and the American commercial agent or consul Is that the one travels from place to place representing a distinctive line of Boods, while the consul is stationed per- manently at one point and represents all the goods manufactured in his country and sold to foreign countries. Third Assistant Secretary of State Herbert H. D. Peirce, Who recently returned to his desk in the State department after a tour of inspec- tion of the consuls and consulates of the United States 4n England, Holland, Bel- #lum, France and Germany, brings with him a most interesting lot of information acquired on his trip which cannot fall to be of permanent value, not oniy to the consular service, but to representatives of business Interests in other countries. Sec- retary Pelrce swooped down upon the con- €uls in the ocountries mentioned without any knowledge on the part of the consuls that he had left his desk at Washington. There was no time for the consul to clean house. He saw Lhe American representa- tive in his Working clothes and he saw the daily routine life of those who represent abroad the commerclal interests of the American nation. As @ consequence of these unexpected visits Mr. Peirce has been able to recommend a number of changes in the consular service. Business Men for Consuls. It 1s interesting in this connection to know that the consular service of the Uni- ted States in 1901 cost us $147,000. In 1902 the cost was $96,000, and for the fiscal year ending June 3, the cost was 326,000, which makes the consular service almost self- sustaining. The reduction in the cost of the service according to Secretary Pelrce was partly due to increases in official fees and partly to economy on the part of the State department. Mr. Peirce, however, be- lieves that while economy is a necessary factor of good government, he is of the opinion that too much econmy would sert- ously impair the usefulness of the con- sular service. “The consul and the com- imerclal agent,” sald Mr. Peirce, in dis- cussing some of the recommendations of his report, “is not expected to be trained in the school of diplomacy. He is the bag- man of the government In a wide sense. He is the paid agent of the government to represent the business interests of our country in the world's markets. The consul or commercial agent should therefore be, first of all, @& keen business man. Secondly, he should not only bave a splendid business educa- tion, But should also be able to speak the language of the country to which he is accredited. In this commercial age, ‘Wherein competition is most acute and the leading nations of the world are all en- deavoring to push thelr several manufac- tures, it becomes absolutely necessary for us as a natlon to bring the consular ser- vice to the highest degree of efficlency. The conservative methods practiced a dec- ade ago have been relegated to the rear. Germany and France are quite as alert as weo are. In some particulars those countries have adopted methods simi- lar to our own Insofar as the consular ser- vice is concerned. Consular reports are pub- lished in the other countries very much after the manner of our own. In conse- quence of this the forelgn manufacturer knows what we are dolng quite as well as we know what Is being done by our for- elgn rivals to sécure trade.” Not So Dy as All That, Judge Kinkald and & number of other members of the Nebraska delegation wers inspecting the statuary in Statuary hail in the capitol shortly after the opening of the present session of congress. They were commenting upon the varled assort- ment of bronze and marble statues erected by the several ‘states to the memory of thelr departed statesmen, citizens and sol- diers. One of the members of the delegu- tion, turning to Judge Kinkaid, sald: “How would you like to be on one of those pedestals, judge? The judge, with a smile, replied: “I belong to a pretty dead body at the present time, but even & mem- ber of the aforesald dead body I am per- fectly willlng to vest where I am rather than be & subject of idle comment by the thousands of sightseers who dally visit the capitol.” The seed trade of the country is await- ing with much Interest the appointment of the house committee on agriculture, as immediately thereafter it is proposed an active campaign shall be inaugurated against the congressional free seed distri- bution. Unfortunately for ‘themselves the seedsmen are divided as to the best meth- ods to be employed in defeating this ap- propriation. Until recent years the seeds- men were almost a unit In opposing the distribution. In those days the contract was let in bulk and all the seedsmen who were not directly or indirectly interested In the contract fought the appropriation and the contractor. Matters are somewhat different now, and the change In the situa- tion 18 what has demoralized the seed trade. The seeds are now purchased by the department direct from the seedsmen and gruntled dealers that the seeds are pur- chased largely from dealers who were for- merly most active in their opposition to the distribution, but who are now only lukewarm, to say the most. Novelties in the Seed Lime. Another method eof disarming hostility has been employed by the Department of Agriculture. Under the name or ‘novel- tes and speclalties” the department hasy been supplying each senator and repre- sentative with 500 packages contalning five packets each of selected varieties of seed which are supposed to be “new and novel.” Each package Is accompanied by a circular siving a short history of the varleties and directing attention to the grower de- them 1o the department.

MUNICIPAL OWNERSHIP IS FAVORED Mans Meeting Held to Consider Means for Helping Strikers Says City CHICAGO, The strike on the Chicago City Raflway is still unsettled. Peace negotlations wlhich have been In progress for nearly a week, were confined today to the consideration by the board of directors of the road, to a proposition submitted to the company last night by the strikers. This oposition, it is id, provides for the arbitration of the griev- of the unions on the system that struck in .sympathy with the trainmen. What action the directors tdok on this de- mand Is not known, as their answer will not o glven to the union until tomorrow morning. A basis of settlement of all the other differences in the controversy, it Is said, has been agreed upon and unless the company refuses to accede to this new demand of the union, an amicable adjust- ment of the whole dispute should be reached not later than tomorrow night. There was a marked Increase in the patronage today on the four lines being operated by the company under police pro- tectjon. There were few acts of violence, however, and the day passed off quletly, only three arrests being made for inter- terence with the operation of the cars. No attempt was made to open any of the other branches of the system, but unless a settioment of the strike is reached to- morrow the State street line and possibly a crosstown line will be opened for trafo Tuesday under the same conditions as ex- Ist on the four branches now under opera- tlon. ‘While the negotiations looking to peace were In progress this afternoon a monster mass meeting was held at Tattersall's to plan assistance for the strikers. Nearly every union in Chicago was represented and it is estimated that fully 15,000 people were present at the meeting. The men formed in procession in different sections of the city and marched in bodies to the hall In Sixteenth. street where the meet- ing was held. Several sections of the pargde crossed the lines of the Chicago City Railway company which were in operation, but there were no disturbances or acts of violence and the paraders reached their destination without mishap. The meeting was addressed by Zlarence 8. Darray, attor- ney for the strikers; Judge Prentiss, Presi- dent Mahon of the Amalgamated Street Rallway Employes' assoclation and sev- eral other labor leaders. Resolutions were adopted asking Mayor Carter H. Harrison to withdraw the police from the cars of the Chicago City Rallway and declaring for immediite municipal ownership of all the lines in the city.

A battle is almost certain | tomorrow, for the desperadoes are deter- | mined to free thelr leader and the officers are equally determined to bring him in dead or alive.

MEMBERS OF HOUSE ARE ' UNCERTAIN Expeoted that Arrangements Will Be Made in a Fow Days. WARM SPEECHES EXPECTED FROM SOME When Ouban Bill is Reported Opponents Will 8peak Firet. WAIT TO HEAR FROM SENATOR MORGAN Veteran Ohampien of Canal Something Inte Believed that Interocennic About Pana WASHINGTON, Nov. 22.-~The senate will begin the week In a state of uncertainty as to whether a final adjournment of the extra session will be secured during the week or the regular dally sessions con- tinued. A majority of the senators are anxious to bring the session to a close and to this end an agreement has been prac- tically entered for a vote December 16 on the Cuban reciprocity blll. The acquips cence of the house of representatives In the program, however, has not bgen secured and until the two houses reach an agree- ment no definite announcement can b made. Leading senators on the whole are rather confident that an adjournment will be brought about and say it will be im possible to hold a quorum of either hody after Thanksgiving, The present understanding is that a prop- osition to fix a day for adjournment wil be made by the senate on Monday or Tues- day, whereupon it will be formally con- veyed 1o the house. This will form a basls for negotiation, as thus far there has been no conference between the mem- bers of the two houses on the adjournment auestion. The understanding in the senate Is that the day for taking a vote on the Cuban bill will be fixed without the ad- Journment of the extra session. The bill will then be reported by Senator Cullom, chairman of the committee on foreign re- lations, and he #ill ask that a date be sot for the vote, whereupon December 16 will be set If the present plan is carried out. Senators Want to Go Home, When the republican senators secure this agreement they will be comparatively in- different as to whether the senate remains in session or not. They think It prefer- able that the extra session should come to @ close, as many senators desire to visit their homes before the regular session be- gins, but If an adjournment is not had there will be @ general agreement among senators which will render it unnecessary for a majority to remain in Washington. If any conslderable number of senators desire to meet for the purpose of making and listening to speeches on the Cuban bill they will be allowed that privilege with the understanding that no other b shall be taken up. If there are no to be made the senute will take adjournments for three days ul a time, o permitted by the constitution, without ref- erence to what the house may do. There are a number of senators who desire to discuss the Cuban bill, but it is probable most of them will postpone their speeches until, after the beginning of the regular session, December 7, After being reported tomorrow the Cuban bill will lie on the table for & day unless there is unanimous consent that its con- sideration shall begin immediately, When it is taken up Sepator Cullom will make a brief speech in explanation of its merits. There probatly will be no addresses by friends of the bill until toward the end of the discussion. In the meaniime the Col- orado, Loulsiana, Texas und Florida sen- ators and probably some others will make speeches intended to show that the enact- ment of the bill into law will be Injurious to the sugar interests of the United States and contrary to the best public polley. In addition to recelving the report on the Cuban blll, the senate probably will make a reassignment of senators to committees tomorrow. The committee's announcement is likely to be made the occasion for a speech by Senator Morgan, which Is an- ticipated with considerable, interest. In the makeup of the committees the Alabama senator will be displaced as chalrman of the ccmmittee on Isthmian canals. He has been chalrman of that committes since its organization and has been identified with canal legislation ever since he en- tered the senate. It is understood that he will review to some extent his connection with this important work and that in doing s0 he will sharply criticise those who fail to agree with him In advocsoy of e Nicaragua foute, HOUSE IS NOW RESTING Having Passed the Cuban Reelproeity Bill it Has Nothing to Do. WASHINGTON, Nov, 22.—The house will meet Tuepday. Having disposed of the Cuban bill, it has no business before it and unless an agreement is effected by which the called session s to be brought to an early close, an adjournment probably will be taken untll Friday and then an ad- journment until Monday or Tuesday. It is suggested that it is extremely doubt- tul it there will be & quorum Tuesday and, that, If the point of no quorum should be raised, it would be impossible to act on a concurrent resolution providing for an adjournment, even should one be brought over from the senate. Bome of the house leaders have expressed their views in op- position to an adjournment before the Cuban bili shall have been disposed of, but what might be the result of a conferrence be- tween the leaders of the senate and house on this proposition remains to be seen. It is possible that the speaker may be ready to announce the committee assignments by the end of the week. If this is done the house will be fully organized and prepared at the opening of the regular session next month to proceed to business. Members of both sides of the house are mindful of the conventions which are to be held next year and the desire will be general to rush the work as fast as possible in order that the regular session may be brought to a elose as early as possible.
