I to call a special session of th- Colombian I congress to act on the Panama canal i treaty. In the election in progress in t Colombia tho opposition continues to ! gain and the prospects for a government } majority are so doubtful that President ■ Marroquin seems indisposed to act. The Colombian congress will, however, i assemble July 20 in regular session. At I that session the. canal treaty may be I taken up, but in view of the sentiment i existing much doubt is felt here as to i whether it w ill 1»- a- ted upon. This outlook, however, does not dis j eour-ige the officials here. The t’nited I States government has gone so far in - its negotiations with Colombia that con j fid-nee is felt here that President Marro- ■ quin will feel himself bound to carry out i the engagom its into which lie lias en ' ti-r.-l.

London, May •.—?’orelgn Secretary i I. Has proclaimed a British Mon- | roe doctrine in th- Persian gulf and bus ■ practically notified the competing powers I that any attempt on their part to es- ' tablish a naval base or fortified post in | those waters means war with Great Brit- I ain. "I say without hesitation,” said the for- j etgn secretary, dealing with the subject in , the house of lords yesterday evening. ■ "that we should regard th- establishment of a naval base or a. fortified port in the Persian gulf by any other power as a ' very grave menace to British interests, and -p-e should certainly resist it with j all the means at our disposal." l/oi.l Lansdowne preceded this explicit , enunciation of BrP.lsh policy by a review of the situation there, as It affected Bril- 1 ish interests, contending that so far as , the navigation of the gulf was concerned I Great Britain held a position different ’ from the others, both because it was ; owing to British enterprise and expen- , diture of life and money that, the gulf , was now open to the commerce of tho ’ world, and because the protection of tho I se.t route to India necessitated British : predominance in the gulf. I.ord Lansdowne's attitude in this mat ter generally meets with approval, al though the answers thereto of the other powers interested in the gulf are awajtcd i with ittne anxiety. The newspapers hero comment on the analogy of the present < proeeL-ding which Captain Mahan so : strongly recommended to tho United States poli-y of Monroeism. The Westminster Gazette holds that tho ' British motive, namely, rhe protection -f the sea route to India, corresponds ex- j a.-'tiv with the American motiye in ex cluding European powers from American waters because their territory is thereby-' threatened. • ASTRO HAS MATOS IN TRAP. ! Impending Battle Will Probably End Venezuelan. Revolution. Caracas, May s.—lt Is believed here in some circles that General Matos, the lead er of the revolution, has fallen into a trap. His object In landing again on Venezuelan soil was to reestablish har mony among the chiefs of the revolution ■who are fighting among themselves. Gen eral Matos on May 1 reached Barquisl- I ineto, where the revolutionary army of j 2,000 men is concentrated under Generals I Penalosa and Jacintolart. The government at first was inclined to : disbelieve the news that General Matos I had returned to Venezuela, but after this I was lontirem. It concentrated its forces - which are now encircling the rebels. Vice President Gomez Is marching on Barquisl- ! meto via Tucacacas and Dauca with 2,000 ' men; General Llnarez is -approaching the : rebels via San Felipe and Yarltagua with J, 400 men. General Gonzales Pacheco is approaching via Guidor with 1,300 men, and 100 Andean troops are coming via ; Carache. Within eight days Barquisi rneto, which is strongly entrenched, will ; bo attacked slrnultap”i>usly by all the government forces. It is believed that the approaching bat tle will be sanguinary and probably the ' last of the Matos revolution, if the revo- \ lutionists are defeated. The opinion is ! held bv certain high government officers that if General Matos is captured his life I will be tn danger. It is thought that . Bernard Blanco, a son of Blpnco, Is with . | General Matos. THEY FEAR A SECOND SLIDE. Officers Keep People from. Returning to the Town of Frank. Blalrmore, N W T., May 4 -The loud reports caused by the limestone crum- . bling and falling down the mountain, ; . which kept up the greater part of Sunday, i reverberated dolefully through the empty ' i town of Frank. There was almost no I sign of life in the place, as the police ] j maintained a rigid guard and permitted no one to enter tho town except persons l J having property to move or look after, j Another party’ ascended the mountain j ; y-sterday to obs.-rve the progress of dis integration going on in the danger sec tion. It was found that a break or i crevice, from which future trouble is i looked for, lias widened greatly since i tli.- observations of the day before. Tills : information has created fears of a sec ond slide. Th- Canadian Pacific takes I s-i serious a view of the situation that j Superintendent Taylor has stopped the : v.ork of reconstruction, and withdrawn I his entire force. .As soon as all personal I property is removed It Is proposed to try to blast down all loose rock, as well .as any that shows any Indication of being dangerous. The attempt to put the mountain in a safe condition has been temporarily abandoned. RUSSIA WHIIBHAW.S HER TROOPS, Japanese Minister Visits Secretary Hay and Expresses Deep Con- i cem Over the Situation. What Russia Has To Say. Pekin, May 2 The official at Now 'Chwang who sent yesterday’s news of Russia's alleged action at. New Chwang and elsewhere In Manchuria telegraphs today that the occupation of the for.’es at the mouth of the Liao river was tem porary and that the Russians have now wit hdra wn. Official circles at Pekin are mystified- j Their subordinates at New Chwang have : not. reported the reoccupation of that [ place, hence there is a disposition to ques- . tlon the correctness of the information, | although the author of yesterday’s story i Is considered to be one of the ablest I and best informed foreigners in China. Deep Concern Felt by Japan. Washington, May 9.—Mr. Takahira, the Japanese minister had a long interview with Secretary liny at. the state depart ment today, lie manifested deep concern over the Manchurian stiu-ation, but de clared that the legation was without official advices, in the absence of which ! ho did not can to discuss the matter, i There Is an intimation that Japan is ■ disappointed at the character of the sup port she has received from other powers I up to tills time In her efforts to stop j Russia’s alleged aggression. Upon leav ing the state department the minister I took occasion to single out the following ' ■ statements print.-i this morning: ! “It is pointed out that Russia employ- j I ed a saving clause in the promise to ■ withdraw from Manchuria, the language ; being provided, however, that the action of other powers shall not stand In the way and the further statement that 'Rus sia. it is understood, now contends that this proviso was violated by- Japan when she mobilized her fleet and otherwise i showed signs of military preparations I which was cont rued as a menace to the Russians.’ “ Commenting upon the latter statement, be said: "Such a contention. If made, is unwar- : ranted." Mr. Takahira added that there ; has been nothing fn the movement of the ‘ t Japanese navy th it could be construed | ns a menace to Russia. ! “The movcm’- is of Japan’s warships,” i said the ininiste'.

The ' I subject has not been rn -nti-ned by either I j tho ambassador at St Petersburg or the • ' British charge d’affaires at Pekin.

The foreign office is In- 1 dined to regard Russian activity at New : Chwang as a, measure originally intended! i to synchronize with the demands of Chi- I . n.i, but owing to . n.- premat lire revela- , , tion of the demand the plans miscar- • ' ried. In view of the vigorous protests I against Russia in th- interim the foreign i -office does not believe she is likely’ to ; : take seriously aggressive steps in the - | near future. Russia Deprecates Reports. St. Petersburg, May 9.—The foreign of- ‘ I flee here strongly deprecates the excite- i 1 ment concerning Manchuria. it believes mischief makers are re sponsible for the reports and says the . arrival of troops at New Chwang was I due to the retirement of troops from ■ Moukden province southward instead ■ f northward.

TUCKER. 1G North Broad St., Atlanta, Ga. fflE KEEPS HIS U PREmSHARP Dower Is Discharged for Alleging Ring Exists in Engine Room To I Govern Promotions—Payne Says That the Charges Are False. Washington, May’ 9.—Postmaster Gen eral Payne today dismissed James Dow- i er, a fireman employed in the postoffice I department, as a result of charges that Dower bad recently filed against Chief Engineer Janies O’Donnell and other su perior officers. Dower alleged that a ring to govern promotions and other mat ters existed in the engine room and that improper contracts had been made. The charges were Investigated by a postoffice inspector, and the report does not sus tain them. The postmaster general announced today that tho action <jf Dower In making the “frivolous and scandalous charges, giving them publicity’ and then failing utterly to sustain them is to the detriment of the service and subversive of all dis cipline. The discharge of Dower is order* for the good of the service." Tho inspector's report says Dower is reported by Assistant Engineer Anderson to have Incited or attempted to incite other employees to acts of insubordina- I tion. I “Dower’s complaint.” the inspector con tinues. “contains statements confirming ; the declarations ns to Ills dissatisfaction with his assignments, nnd acts of in- - subordination, a conduct demoralizing to 1 the force." I Some of his charges are grossly exag ' ger.ited, while other charges, as shown I by the sworn statements of his assq- ■ elates, arc absolutely untrue. Postoffice j Inspector Fosnes today took charge of ; the free delivery service. General Super intendent Machen, who was relieved from duty yesterday, did not appear to turn ov’tr the office. Ho sent word that he was too ill to come. Postofflee Inspector Fosr.es today’ took charge of the free delivery service.. Gen eral Superintendent Machen, who was relieved from duty yesterday, did not appear to turn over the office. He sent word that he was too ill to come. Postoflice Inspector Thorpe, of York city, who has been assisting In the investigation of the department, will re main with Acting Superintendent Fosnes to assist him in handling some of the details of the work. Postmaster Genera! Payne said today that the transfer of the free delivery to the office of the fourth assistant and Mr. Machen’s indefinite leave was with the 1 :I1 knowledge and acquic.-icenco of First , Assistant Postmaster General YVynne. Seymour \V. Tulloch, the former cash-, i’-r of the Washington city postoffice, who, in a newspaper interview, made ; grave charges against the administration I of the postal service at the time of his i removal several years ago, was in the l city today. "It is a curious coincidence,” said Mr. Tulloch, "that the suspension of Mr . fallows so closely the receipt of the replies to the letters tho postmaster j g, neral sent regarding my statements. I H the truth was told, the Information | those replies contained must have fully ( borne out everything that 1 have said. | Mr Bristow is a thoroughly honest and.

The change will take effect tomorrow, ■ I when Mr. Fosnes will assume charge i i of the free delivery’ service and at the I I same time that service will pass under | I the control of the office of the fourth assistant postmaster general.

Before a largo number of newspaper i mon, Postmaster General Payne an- , nounced bls decision and read the corre- ■ spondence between himself and Mr. Ma- : chen, together with the recommendation ■ of Bristow. The latter’s recommenda- | tion, made under date of yesterday, was as follows: "In order to complete the departmental j Investigation now in progress in a more expeditious and satisfactory manner. I beg to request that the division of the : free delivery be temporarily' assigned to the bureau of the. fourth assistant post master goner,-i.l. and that I be author ized to assign a postoffice Inspector as ! the acting superintendent of that division during the continuance of this investlga- i tion." Payne and Street Car Employees. Washington, May 9.—Referring to the ' resolutions adopted yesterday by’ the con- , volition of the Amalgamated Street Rail way Employees of America, at Pittsburg, alleging flagrant abuses of the mails. ' Postmaster General Payne said today’ that 1 : during tho street car trouble In San Fran- I cisco a postal official (whether the post . master or the superintendent of delivery’ ! , he did not recall) was accused of giving ! i unilui privik ges to detectives employed! i by the company. Mr. Payne said he had forgotten just) what these privileges were, but the case i was investigated at the time and the , action of the postoffico condemned by the I department. He said he had never heard ' of tho complaints emanating from New i Orleans. DENIAL MADE BY GEN. MILES. He Did Not Go to Philippines To Aid Anti-Imperialists. Washington, May 6.—ln a recent trial at Manila there was introduced in evi dence a letter taken from a Filipino and i ! signed by a native saying that the recent ! visit of General Miles to the Philippines I was for the purpose of collecting evi- ■ denee to aid the cause of the anti-impe- | rlnllsts. The letter with other eviedn. e ' was published In a Manila paper. General Davis, commanding in the Phil- I Ippines. sent a copy of the letter to the war il -p.i rtnient. with an indorsement, ' saying he had no doubt that the use of j General Miles’ name in this connection was unauthorized. The letter with in dorsement was referred to General Mlles, who returned it with the further in dorsement that tho view of General Davis was entirely correct and the use of his name was wholly unauthorized. GOULD LINES SEEKING SOUTH MTIC TERMINUS, This Outlet Secured by the Alliance with the Seaboard Air Line. Atlanta-Birmingham Ex tension F.~ures in the Deal. Chicago, Ills., May B.—(Special.) —lt is reported that the Gould interests have formed an alliance with those of the Seaboard Air Line, by which the former will obtain an outlet to the south Atlan tic ports, which they are understood to have been seeking for some time. Art important extension of the Seaboard Air Lins is now under construction. It will run from Atlanta to Birmingham, and will be 117 miles In length. Con struction work has been begun, and it is said that trains will lie running over it by January 1. The new road is being built to carry heavy loads on an eco nomical basis and for this reason large sums will be spent In overcoming physi cal difficulties.

Terminal arrangements at Birmingham were provided at the outset, and include property of ample size and good loca tion. A contract was also obtained with tho Birmingham Belt < ’ompa.ny, w’hich Is now owned by the St. Louis and San J-rancisco railroad. It is believed that the Goulds will find away of pushing tho eastern terminus of their southwestern lines, from Memphis to Birmingham. Railroad mon are of the opinion that tho Goulds seek an outlet to south At lantic points, and that, besides teaching Baltimore, they want ports farther south. Should they build from Memphis to Bir mingham ajid make a deal with the Sea board they would have the choice of the various ports reached by that system. There are evidences of joint relations between the Gould and thf Seaboard in ■ forests in other quarters that make such arrangement practical, if desired. Rock Island and Illinois Central Interests also are understood to be arranging a close connection with the Seaboard Air Line at Birmingham. — Gomez Sails for Havana.
