WASHINGTON, Jan. 9.—The Naval Af. | fairs Committee of the House to-day de- | cldea by a vote of 5 to 4 not to report the | bill authorizing the transfer of Naval ‘Construclor R. P. Hobson to the retired | list. Representative Dayton was author- | 1zed to report favorably the bill author- izing the President to appoint Lieuten- ant Commander Randall, retired, a com- | mander on the retired I Commissioner of the General Land Office, and Jonathan Bourne, a well-known min- Ing operator of this city. Governor Geer claims that he is the choice of the people for the office of Senator by reason of the fact that he received the highest vote | for that office at the election last June. Under provisions of the Mays act electors are permitted to indicate their choice for | United States Senator. Governor Geer | was not the nominee of the Republican State Convention for Senator, but he be- | came an independent candidate by pe- tition and had his name placed on the | Senator and by reason of this fact he| out the verdict of the people. At the present time it seems highly improbable that a caucus of Republicans will be held on the Senatorship question. — = | | tH i a the Sultan is repairi@s | | situ- | R e - other nations Wil now procesd with the | | plans they had formed for the dispatch of | | policy GERMANY TO SEND VON STERNBERG TO AMERICAN CAPITAL S0UTH HURLS - BITTER WORDS Embassador Von Holleben’s Rc’tir"""'smE AT PH[SH][NT Due to His Misinterpretation of United * States Sentiment and National Policy GERMAN EMBASSADOR TO THE PLEASED EMPEROR WILLIAM STAT!

The Baron in the meantime will re- tain his position as Consul General of | Germany at Calcutta. Oddly enough, the exact whereabouts of Baron von Stern- | berg Is not known at the Foreign Office. | It is thought, however, that he is visit- ing kinsfolk in Saxony. AN the Foreign Office officlals will say | about Von Holleben is: “He has not been | recalled and his leave was granted upon his own finitlative. The Government would never recall an Embassador in the midst | of important negotiations without grave | reasons, and these certainly do not exist in this case. The supposition that the | Government is angered because the Em- bassador failed to obtain President Roose- velt's acceptance of the arbitration of the Venezuelan question is wholly incorrect. | Germany reckoned In advance that the | President might have weighty reasons for declining, hence her note of December 23 contained the alternative proposition to | refer the matter to The Hague arbitra- tion court. ‘Still, it was felt that the in-| ternational political factors in the case dictated the a;}:oqflateness of first of fering the President the arbitratorship.” However, the dissatisfaction of the Government with Von Holleben's man- | agement of the Venezuelan affair is as- serted without reserve in important newspapers. It seems that the Govern- | ment feels it was misled, or at least not | fully informed, by the Washington Em- bassy respecting President Roosevelt's attitude. The opinion also is that Dr.| von Holleben's dispatches regarding the | policy of the United States in the Vene- | zuelan business and its general foreign have been neither adequate nor precise. A variety of other reasons have con- | tributed to the lack of confidence in the | Embassador. The Vossische Zeitung, for instance, attributes importance to the! | tefegram sent by Emperor William to | Mrs. Kipling on March 5, 1889, when Kip- | counseled the sending of the telegram, the publication of Kipling's recent poem, o “The Rowers,” feels he was ill-advised.

While there is no official comment oa the change which has set diplomats agog, officials of the State Department privately expressed credence of the reports from Berlin that Herr von Holleben's official decapitation will be the price of Emperor Willlam's disappoint- ment at the failure of the European pow- ers to obtain Prestdent Roosevelt's ser- vices as sole arbitrator of the Venezuelan situation.
