18 4 THE SA DEPEW CLOSES WEDDING SERIES Nuptial Knot Is Tied for a Second and Third Time. ——e Guests of the Couple Orowd the American Church in Nice. NICE, Dec. 22.—The marriage of SBena- tor Chauncey M. Depew to Miss May Palmer was celebrated in the American church here to-day, following the cere- mony of the Catholic marriage service in Notre Dame. The wedding party first at- tended a low mass in Notre Dame, cele- brated by Father Crepaux, formerly an officer in the French army. Shortly before noon the party proceed- el to the American church, which was crowded to excess and beautifully deco- The Rev. Dr. Adamson officiated. rd of honor of ten bluejackets from e United States cruiser Albany stood at the entrance of the church. After the ceremony the wedding breakfast was served at the villa of the Countess de Sers. The wedding was quite unostentatious znd the service at the American church was very simple. By special request the vocal music consisted only of one con- traito song, “Oh Fair, Oh Sweet and Holy,” rendered by Miss Tucker. There were no bridesmaids. Only those officially connected with the weliding attended the ceremony in the Caztholic church. The party then drove to the American church, where the prin- cipal American and English residents had assembled. Outside was an awning dec- orated with American and English flags. Officers from the United States squadron occupied the second and third pews. The wedding march from “Lohengrin” was played as the couple walked up the aisle. They are almost the same height. The bride, a tall, slender brunette, was at- tired in a simple gown of ivory satin, irimmed with orange blossoms. Senator Depew, who was radiantly happy, wore a white flower at his button-hole. The bride and bridegroom gave the re- sponses in a low tone. The groom when he placed the ring upon the bride's finger affectionately retained her hand for a few moments. The service lasted a quar- ter of an hour. This was afterward re- marked to Senator Depew, who punningly referred to the “happy dispatch.” The bridal party left the church to the strains of Mendelssohn's “Wedding March.” Among the Americans present in the American church were the United States Consul, Harold 8. Van Buren, and Mrs. Van Buren, Baroness de Robecourt and Major Brevoort. The halls and corridors of the villa of the Countess de Sers, who is Senator Depew’s cousin, were gorgeously banked Among the guests at the st were Senator Depew’s jeces, the Baroness de Bresson and Hegeman; Miss Palmer, Mrs. Mec- n, widow of General George B. Mc- Viscomte and Viscomtesse de esson, Consul Van Buren and Mrs. Van the Rev. Dr. Adamson and Mrs. Adamson, Captain Jose Craig of the Al- commanding the American squad- t Villefranche; Commander Nathan iles of the United States gunboat Nashville; several other officers and the witnesses of the marriage. Senator and Mrs. Depew will sail for New York on the St. Louis from Cher- bourg, January 4. CAMPBELL-BANNERMAN’S POSITION STRENGTHENED ZLord Rosebery Rejects Offer Looking to the Restoration of Lib- eral Unity. LONDON, Dec. 28.—It is asserted upon appargntly good authority that the Lib- eral feader, Sir Henry Campbgll-Banner- man, has written a letter to Lord Rose- bery in the hope of restoring unity among the Liberals, but Lord Rosebéery de- clines to join his fortunes to those of the party in the present circumstances. Should this statement prove to be correct it will be considered a further proof of the sincerity of Sir Henry's efforts for union and will give him a new n to the loyalty of the Liberals and strengthen his position as leader he effectiveness of the opposition. ot S i Japan Using Wireless Telegr: >hy. .

ASHINGTON, Dec. 28.—Of- ficial advices receNed In diplomatic quarters here in- dicate that the Chile-Argen- tina controversy is again opened. According to thess advices the peace protocol referring the whole subject to arbitration was signed at Santiago three days ago. But the action of the Argentina Minister in placing his signature to the document seems to have caused resentment at Buenos Ayres, both among the prominent officials and the people. Accordingly, on yesterday, the Argentina Minister inform- ed the Chilean Foreign Office that he was unable to concur in all the terms which had been agreed upon heretofore and signed. In particular he specified two points on which the Argentina Govern- ment refused to subscribe; first, the with- drawal of police from the Ultima Esper- anza province, and second, the submission to King Edward VII of England. The formal refusal of Argentina to sign has statement of the Minister to thé Chilean Foreign Office is regarded as a serious in- terruption, if not a termination of the proposed settlement. The riotous demonstrations which oc- curred in the streets of Buenos Ayres last night are thought to have resulted from the signing of this protocol and to have been expressive of possible disapproval of the settlement with Chile. The popular sentiment in Argentina is very warlike and this leads to the belief in well posted quarters that President Roca will not suc- ceed in any policy which contemplated an adjustment with Chile. The Chilean Charge d'Affaires, Senor Infante, sald to-day: I note a publithed statement to the effect that Argentina looked upon the recent protocol as an evidence of her very pacific tendencles, in that it yielded what she re- garded as her unquestionable rights in the Ultima Esperanza district. As a result the district has been in the undisputed possession of Chile for some time. Our police were there, and so when it came to a question of arrang- | ing a status quo, pending a final settlement, an understanding was reached that the juris- diction of Chile should be maintained in Ultima Esperanza territory. In these circumstances it is difficult to see how Argentina has yielded any unguestionable right, for if there has been any yielding in the interests of continued peace it has been through the considerateness of e. DESERTIONS FROM ARMY ARE ON THE INCREASE Major General Otis Calls Attention to the Matter in His Annual Report. CHICAGO, Dec. 25.—The annual report of Major General Elwell S. Otis, com- mander of the Department of the Lakes, was made public here to-day. General Otis calls attention to an increase in the number of desertions and calls attention to the need for additional room for con- fining military prisoners. There are at present 1350 prisoners at the various posts, the majority of them being charged with desertion. During the year 20,329 persons applied for enlistment and 51%, or 25.55 per cent, were accepted. For service in the navy there were 1140 enlistments, com- pared with 975 last year.

His Interview With President Unsat- isfactory. Special cable to The Call and New York Her- ald. Copyright, 1901, by the Herald Pub- lishing Company. ORT-OF-SPAIN, Trinidad, Dec. 28 —Passengers who have arrived here from La Guayra say that President Castro of Venezuela wished to send troops from Car- acas to Valencla to operate against tha revolutionists, but that the German au- thoritles refused to permit the use of the line unless there was a guarantee against damage from battle with insurgents. The railroad officlals appealed to the German Minister to support them. Beveral notes passed between the Minister and Presl- dent Castro, and then followed an inter- view which was not satisfactory. It is sald that the railroad officials finally or- dered the dismounting of the locomotives, ‘while the, German Minister departed to La Guayry to go on board the German cruiser Falke. The railroad stations, it is reported, are occupled by Venezuelan troops. According to the latest advices the Ven- ezuelan revolutionists recently in Colom- blan territory have crossed the frontler and are now in Guajira peninsula and in Tachira. They are under the command of Generzls Pablo Penalosa and Rangel Garbiras. The latest news shows that there are extensive uprisings against President Castro in the States of Cara- bobo and Bermudez, It is reported that Governor Sarria has revolted and has established an autonomy in Guayana. The Venezuelan gunboat Restaurador arrived here yesterday. She reported that the British steamship Ban Righ, which, it is said, has on board a large quantity of arms and ammunition for the revolu- tionists, was at Martinique when she left, The Restaurador left this port last night to continue scouting duty. i i Xl CASTRO’S STRENGTH WANING. Venezuela Revolutionists Are Gain- ing Ground Daily. WIELEMSTAD, Island of Curacao, Dec. 28.—Advices reached here to-day from Ca- racas, Venezuela, say that the revolution against President Castro is gaining ground daily. Nearly the whole of the republic is in revolt and bands of men are ranging the country. Coro, in the State of Falcon, and Barquisimeta, in the State of Lara, particularly, are in the possession of the revolutionists. Cable communication between Cumano, Curapano and Barcelona is interrupted and the Government is without news from the State of Bermudese (in which these ports are located), which leads to the belief that it also has been induced to revolt by General Domingo Monagus. General Luciano Mendozo, the Presl- dent-elect of the State of Carabobo, who rebelled against President Castro, march- ed on La Victoria and was reported to have been defeated, has escaped from the pursuit of the Government troops and is now in the province of S8an Juan de Los- moros. Antonio Fernandez and thirty chiefs of the State of Carabobo were not willing to engage the Government forces before the revolution was quite ripe. Venezuela is said to be on the verge of even more serious complications. The telegraph lines in the interior of the coun- try have all been cut. The arrival in Venezuela of Senor Ma- tos, the reputed head of the revolutionary movement, with the steamer Ban Righ, loaded with munitions of war, is awaited daily. A decieive conflict will soon take place. e The Marietta at San Juan, WASHINGTON, Dec. 28.—The gunboat Marietta, which arrived at San Juan, P. R., yesterday, will join the North Atlan- tic squadron at - Culebra Island. The Machias has been until recently the gun- boat with the squadron, but has now come north, and the Marietta will take her place during the evolutions in West Indian waters. FOG AND AN OPEN SWITCH CAUSE A SERIOUS WRECK Engineer and Fireman of Train Are Killed and Several Passen- gers Injured. NASHUA, N. H,, Dec. 28.—A dense rog and a misplaced switch in the north yard of the Boston and Maine Rallroad in this city to-day caused the wrecking of the Cannon Ball Express bound from Mon- treal for Boston. Two men were killed | and about a half dozen persons injured. The dead: BDWARD QUIMBY, Concord; engineer. J. E. MARSHALL, Concord; fireman. The injured: Frank Crowson, Boston, conductor of an extra freight, bad scalp wound; Robert Morrow, Concord, news- boy, injuries to right leg. Several of -the passengers on the Can- non Ball were bruiSed, but it was not necessary to send any of them to a hos- pital. The wreckage caught fire, but the blaze was extinguished without further damage. The express collided with an extra freight, running from Concord to Boston. The engine of the passenger train struck the end of the freight, as the latter had hauled on to a siding to permit of the passing of the express. i R SCHLEY AND COUNSEL HOLD A CONFERENCE It Further Steps Be Taken They Will Deal With Legal Phases of the Controversy. WASHINGTON, Dec. .—Admiral Schley was joined at his apartments in the Richmond to-day by his counsel, Isa- dor. Raynor and Assistant Counsel Teague, both of whom came over from Baltimore at the admiral’s request in order to conslder what further steps, if any, were to be taken in the Schley case. The conference closed at 2 o'clock and Raynor returned to Baltimore. No state- ment was made as to the results, except that such further steps as might be taken would deal with legal rather than naval phases of the controversy. Admiral and Mrs. Schley will leave in about a week for a trip south, to be gone about two weeks. He has not yet made up his itinerary, but will do so next week. ddhosad ol Attempt to Wreck an Electric Car. BOWLING GREEN, Ohlo, Dec. 28.—An attempt to wreck a car on the Toledo, Bowling Green and Southern Electric Raflway was made near here early to- day. The car, with twenty passengers, ran into a pile of boards placed on the track where jt runs along a deep gully. By good fortune the car did not leavs the track and a calamity was thus avert- ed. A Deputy Sheriff’and posse arrested two men suspected of the crime. This is the second attempt of the kind. —— Moonanical Cashier mfi‘!n‘?fim‘mf 000, to manufacture cash of all kinds, was incorporated here to-day. the Battle Cry at Honda. Rout of Colombian Insurgents Is Comp!ete. OLON, Dec. 28.—Barranquilla pa- pers dated December 24, which came to hand this morning, con- tain further details of the battle near Honda. They say that Gen- eral Leovigildo Rodriguez commanded Honda's small garrison. General Marin’s large force of Insurgents attacked the place early on the morning of December 9. At 8 & m. General Londono brought up 200 Government reinforcements from La Clguente, across the Magdalena River, facing Honda. By 11:30 o'clock the coms bined forces drove the enemy away from Honda. The Insurgents, on arriving at Caraoli, near Mariquita, in the evening, awaited the Government troops in two wings. It was there that bayonets and machetes ! | Portland and Astoria. were freely used, for the insurgents’ am- munition was exhausted. The vanguard having been surrounded, with the aid of the rear guard, the Government troops succeeded in breaking the line and then utterly routed the enemy. On the following morning, when 400 were found to have been killed, the in- surgents retreated by way of Guayaquil, taking their wounded with them. The fighting in this engagement has been characterized as uncivilized. The Liberal colors bore the device, ““I Neither Ask for nor Give Quarter.” The following dispatch has been re- ceived from Panama: ‘“General Alban says that he has conclusive proof that the President of Salvador has been as- sisting the revolutionists. Fifteen hun- dred of the latter from Tumaco, under Benjamin Herrera, landed on the penin- sula of Tonosi near Santlago de Veragua (a town of C~lombia, 125 miles southwest of Panama, .ear the coast). The small garrison of that place fought \for five hours, but when the rebels landed at sev- eral points it could not resist the attack. “The Government has concentrated all its forces under General Castro and is sending more troops to his aid. A battle is expected to take place shortly; but, as reinforcements are coming from Barran- quilla, General Alban has no fear of the ultimate success of the army in defend- ing the republic. “General Alban confirms the reports from Bogota that fighting has taken place during the week at Fusagasuga and Cu- macua; that many men were killed, and that the Government troops were victo- rious.” TWENTY-TWO LIVES REPORTED LOST Continued From Page Seventeen. be seen floating in the waters of the gulf. It is likely that several days will elapse before it will be possible to form an esti- mate of the total damage at up coast lumber camps. Since yesterday word has come from Victoria that the vessel ashore on Trial Island is certainly the ship Santa Clara, and not the bark Bankburn, as at first re- ported. On the other hand, the Bankburn has disappeared completely, and not a word has been received by Captain Wylle, her master, as to_her whereabouts. Cap- tain Wylie is in Victoria, A report reached- Victoria Thursday that the Bankburn had found an anchor- age close to San Juan Island, but when a tug had been dispatched to investigate it was found that there was no vessel in the vielnity of San Juan Island, and it is considered unlikely that the Bankburn ever brought up there. Captain Wylie is placed in the most peculiar position of having lost his vessel while he was ashore, and she disappeared at a time when he thought she lay safely at anchor in the Royal Roads. It is thought in Vic- toria that the Bankburn may have been navigated down to the Sound, but reports from there indicate that she is not to be found in that direction. There is no change in the condition of the wreck of the Minnie E. Caine. She plled up on Smiths Island, immediately opposite the end of the Straits of Juan de Fuca, early in the storm, at about the time the steamer Mainlander nearly, foundered in the trough of the sea. The crew of the Caine, which is a new four- masted schooner, had no trouble in climb- ing off the ship on the rocks, and catch- ing hold of trees they pulled themselves up the bank. The ship herself will be a total wreck. The Santa Clara, which went on Trial Island, near Victoria, is no nearer being floated than when the first attempt was made Thursday night. Several large holes were knocked in her bow. Reports from cannery headquarters and other sources to-day. tend rather to in- crease the amount of the loss by the storm than to diminish it. TROUBLE OVER SECOND- CLASS MAIL PUBLICATIONS Senate Committee to Make Investiga- tion Into Alleged Abuse of Postal Privileges. WASHINGTON, Dec. 28. — Senator Mason, as chairman of the Senate Com- mittee on Postoffices, to-day called upon Postmaster General Smith and presented a request that no further action be taken by the Postoffice Department in the mat- ter of dropping publications which are now classified as second class mall pub- Mcations pending the investigation pro- posed by Senator Mason's committee. The Senator stated that it iz his intention to begin the proposed investigation imme- diately on the reconvening of Congress and sald that he has received several hundred protests against the department’s plan of action. No definite understanding was reached with the Postmaster General, pei Appointed to a Responsible Place, BUTTE, Mont., Dec. 28.—Official notice has been received in this city of the ap- pointment of John Gillie as superintend- ent of all the mines of the Amalgamated Copper Company.

CEMBER 29, FRENCH MARINERS HAVE GRIEVANCE Allege Unfair Treatment in Ports on This Coast. Claima That Local Officials Wink at “Shanghaing” Operations. Bpecial cable to The Call and New York Her- ald. Copyright, 1901, by the Herald Pub- hshing Company. PARIS, Dec. 28—A cry of alarm is sounded in the French press regarding the treatment receivea by French merchant ships in Pacific ports of the United States. It is claimed that local institutions have, in defiance of the Franco-American treaty of 1858, interfered between captains and crews, ignoring the authority of the French Consul, which is alone valid, and thereby provoking wholesale desertions. M. Schwob, editor of the Petit Phare, a shipping organ published in Nantes, says he has received a document which leaves no doubt on the subject. Eight captains of French vessels of heavy tonnage sent a complaint a month ago to the Irench Consul General in San Francisco and a similar communication was sent to the editor of Phare by French eaptains- at These documents claim that the regu- lar trade has been disorganized by a local sallors’ home for holding French seamen for ransom, and that the authorities re- fuse to put a stop to these proceedings, hence cases of desertion are becoming more numerous. Sixteen French ships on the Columbia River at the time of writing were, in con- sequence, far short of their strength. It is further pointed out that the French naval reserves are also being depleted by desertion of these seansen. No change in the situation has been brought about by the protests sent to the French Consul General in San Francisco. One of the captains was arrested on com- plaint of a deserter and,had to find bail to the amount of $7500. In another case a vessel belonging in Nantes was seized and Kkept under arrest three days on complaint of an imprisoned seaman. The Phare declares that in view of the inertia or helplessness of the French dip- lomatic representatives on the spot it is proposed by a group of ship-owners to request the Ministry of Marine to send a warship out to the Western coast of the United States for the protection of French mercantile interests. PORTLAND, Or., Dec. 28.—C. Henri Labbe, the French consular agent, when seen regarding the reported denunciation by the French captains in port, to-day said: *1 feel that I have used my utmost en- deavors to protect the interests of my countrymen. I did not know the captains had written to the Consul General in San Francisco denouncing me. I cannot say anything further for publication until I have investigated the matter.” The French Consul General, Henry Dallemagne, last night emphatically de- nled that he had received any complaint against C. Henri Labbe, the French con- sular agent In Portland. He said that no French captains had sent a communica- tion to him denouncing Labbe’s conduct. The Consul General expressed the great- est faith in Labbe, and declared that had he himself been there he could not have done better under the circumstances. The Consul General said that the consular agent in Portland had done the best, con- sidering the conditions that he was called upon to meet. The Consul General admitted that the conditions surrounding navigation on the Pacific Coast were not altogether satis- factory, but refused to enter into further discussion for publication. ‘WILL TRY TO SECURE RELEASE OF MISS STONT: Two American Representatives Leave Salonica to Meet Her Brigand Captors.
