NEW YORK, Jan. 5.—It was announced to-day Secretary Hay complaining of the treat- ment accorded the Red D line steamer Caracas by the blockading powers at La Guaira. The Caracas arrived here to-day, and the owners of the cargo, which was not discharged at La Guaira, declared that they would seek to obtain indemnity through the United States Government, It is understood that the contention of the steamship line and the shippers of the cargo is that the Caracas had cleared | from this port before the blockade was declared and should have been allowed to i< an impression here that Presi- Commodore Scheder in his dispatch land her cargo at La Guaira. e ) T b WMPW%"'WHMW.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 5. — Postm: General Payne received information to- day that a posse of white citizens at Boeuf River, La., last night ordered Charles Jackson, a negro mail carrier, not to return with the mail on his route, and ihreatened him with deatn in case he did not heed the injunction.. The reason given by the posse was the color of the carrier.

The man is evidently accustomed to mountain travel, for no ome but a mountaineer would travel as he did across the wilg and rugged stretches of rocks and brush. Sherift Dunlap found the man’s hat about mile and a balf from the place of the hold-up. The trail was very clear in many places and the footprints indicated that the man Is pigeon-toed. Deputies Lester Drake and Robert Allen have fol- | lowed the trail down through Mark West | and toward Santa Rosa and Sheriff Dun- lap is of the opinion that the man reach- ed Santa Rosa. Detective Hume of Wells, Fargo & Co. |is of the opinion that the robber is the | same man who held up the stage near Shasta ori December 21. Driver Conner thinks he is the same man who held him up on Mount St. Helena two years ago. The description tallies with that of the man who held up the Ukiah-Booneville stage several times. FOOTBALL PLAYER STOPS . AN ESCAPING PRISONER PENDLETON, Ore., Jan. 5.—An exciting foot race was pulled off on Main and ‘Webb streets this evening. Al Roberts, Deputy L'nh{d States Mershal, had John Franklin in charge, accused of selling wiisky to Indians. Franklin .claimed to be able to give bail and was taken to Schemps’ saloon for the purpose of see- ing a friend. He ran out the front door and south on Main street to Webb, Rob- erts being several yards behind. East on Webb street went Franklin, while others joined in the chase. Franklin crossed Cottonwood street into a corral and ran out on Webb street again. ture a football player got in his work. R. S. Bryson, the famous quarterback on ihe State University team, rushed upon Franklln and with a low tackle around both legs brought the prlsoner to a quick stop. Franklin killed a man in uodoc County, California, in 1883, and was sentenced for ten years. He was released here a week ago from jail, having served a short sen- tence for selling whisky to Indians. —_———— 3 One Way Rate for the Round Trip.

Call at the In- formation Bureau, 613 Market street for par- ticulars 2 At that junc- | question as to whether the State consti- tution of California prohibiting dealings in margins on stocks contravenes fourteenth amendment to the constitution of the United States, The decision of the California courts, which sustains the con- stitution prohibiting such dealings, is confirmed. Justices Brewer and Peckham dissented. The case in question grew out of an ef- fort of the plaintiff to recover money paid for margins to a stock broker. Jus- tice Holmes in his opinion held that the adoption of the, constitutional provision by the people of California showed a deep-seated local conviction that the pro- hibition against dealings in stocks on margins was required. This conviction is entitied to much respect and considera- tion. It is sald, continued Judge Holmes, that at the time the constitution was adopted widespread . .in wrought by gambling in margins. Of course that mode of deallng opens a larger opportunity for gambling than when the property is paid for outright. The court, he continued, was not pre- pared to say that such a provision might not be a proper method of meeting a pop- ular delirfum, still less that it might not reasonably be thought a proper methqd of doing so. And if in practice the evil was confined to stocks, as was natural in a mining country, the court deemed It not an unjustified inequality to confine the prohibition to stocks and not to ex- tend it to other possible matters of spec- ulation, such as cotton or wheat. The opinion concludes as follows: “‘We cannot say that treating stocks of corporations as a class, under special restrictions, was’ unjust discrimination or the denlal of the protection of the law." e WESTERN RAILROADS TO RAISE FREIGHT RATES Increase of at Least Five Per Cent ‘Will Be Made on All Commodi- | ties Handled. CHICAGO, Jan. 5.—Freight rates on nearly all commodities transported by Western railroads are to be materially #aaised Guring the next thirty days, de- clares the Record-Herald. The rates pro- jected will be at least 5 per cent higher on all commodities. The executive officials of the railroads are actuated largely by the fear that the increased cost of everything that rall- roads buy in manufacturing will make the maintenance of the present dividend rates impossible during 1%03. | the | had been. |MAY NOT USE PICTURES WITHOUT OWNER’S CONSENT Bill Is Introduced in Congress to Stop a Certain Class of Adver- tising. WASHINGTON, Jan. 5.—Representative Fitzgerald of New York to-day introduced a bill making it illegal for any person en- gaged in trade to use for advertising pur- poses the name or pictures of any lving persons without having first obtained their consent in writing. A maximum pen- alty of one year in prison and $1000 fine is provided. Fitzgerald sald the New York Court of Appeals recently, in the case of A young woman who sought to restrain the unauthorized publication of her ple- ture as part of an advertisement, “prac- tically determined that it the picture were libelous its use could be restrained, but the mere fact that the picture was a true Ilikeness and its use unauthorized afforded no ground for redress. | | | £l | i declaration referred | that a protest has been sent to | SEATTLE'S MILK aUPPLY GUT OF 1 i Surrounding Valleys are?

AVERT FINANCIAL CRISIS. Leading Traders Accept the Bank of | Venezuela’s Notes. CARACAS, Jan. 5.—The financial panie here has been momentarily arrested by an agreement between the leading traders of Caracas, La Guaira, Valencia and Puerto Cabello and the Bank of Venezu- ela. The traders have agreed to accept the bank's notes in payment of all ac- | counts. The run on the bank has ceased. The activity and energy displayed by President Castro continue to surprise the foreign residents of this city. It is re- ported here that the leaders of the Matos movement are treating with the Govern- ment. About 1500 revolutionists are reported to be marching on Caracas. RSP SAN DIEGO, . 5.—Booker T.

SCOTT'S EMULSI THE NEW BABY From the moment a child is born the question of nousr- ishment becomes of great importance. A right start avoids a lot of trouble later on; it’s so easy to begin right, too. Many women cannot or will not—chiefly will not— nurse their children. It's a sad commentary on modern social conditions that this latter tendency should be so general. The best thing to do under the circumstances is to help the bottle babies all we can—they're at a big dis- advantage at best. We know positively that nothing will’ do them more good than Scott’s Emulsion —a few drops in the battle. It seems to furnish just the right quan- tity and night kind of nour- ishment needed by babies and growing children. The women who are will- but unable to pr Ferly nurse their children will find Scott’s Emulsion a great help —atwo-fold hclpingc . Ithas a direct and immediate effect, not only feeding and sustain- ing the mother, but insuring also a flow of rich, nourishing milk for the baby. Thus| Scott’s Emulsion strengthens the mother and goes natur- ally through the milk and; strengthens the child. These claims are not made offhand. ! ‘We know from nearly thirty éem contact with such cases that Scott’s Emulsion will do just what we say it will do. We will be| glad to send you a sample free so that yon can judge for yourself. SCOTT & BOWNE, 409 Pear St., New Yorik. | Famous the ' World Over—Fully Matured. Sold Evergwhere. OCEAN STEAMERS.
