against the Dawes bill, which was today
forwarded to congress, demanding
that congress ratify the legislative act
removing restrictions from reeervation
lands. The Indians oppose any measure
taking control of the best land out of their
hands, and object to the presence of an
Indian agent. The one who will not sign
the protest says lie has asked congress
to open the reservation, and if it thinks
it knows better than the Indians what
is wanted, let it try and fail.

London, April CI. Captain Donovan,
of the British ship Dumbarton Rock, at j
Dunkirk, from Portland, Oregon, has
j told for publication bis experience with
' "crimpers" while at Astoria, November
3. The Standard, commenting upon
the captain' story, points out the ar
gent necessity of the government's in
ducing the United States to abolish
i crimping by the suppression of desertion,
which always ceased when shipmasters
were permitted to arrest men wbo quit
on their ships without leave. The Stan
dard adds: "The gang ot rough and
'crimpers' whirh ai present infest and
disgrace the ports of the United
States, would e compelled to other pur
suits if su?h permission were given cap
tains of vessels in American ports."

at the world's fair ground. From today
until the close ol the big show it will
cost money to enter the grounds. The

exempted from its payment. . The crowd
which looked upon the splendid struc
tures in Jackson Park Vxlay was estima
ted at from 10,000 to 103,000 persons.
It is estimated that the number of
people who, from now until May 1, 1893,
will visit the grounds will average 10,000
daily. In the 379 days before the open

company a revenue of $947,500.

There is no constitutional government in
Venezuela, as Palucio's term expire 1
February 20th, and no election has been
held since, so the affairs of the country
are In a state of anarchy.
Kay InToWe the Daiud gutet.
Wabhihgtok, April 19. The civil
war in Venezuela may involve the
United States at no trreat distant day in
a controversy with Great Britain. The
difficulty between tbe United States and
Great Britain, if it arines, will be caused
by the mother country's forcible en
croachments upon tbe land which Ven
ezula claims is her own property. The
dispute is over the boundary line
between the eastern border of Venexn-.
ela and the western bonier of British
Guiana. Venexnela asked the United
States, through the bureau of American
republics to induce Great Britain to con
sent to arbitration. This President Har
rison and Secretary Blaine have already
done, through Minister Lincoln, but tbe
progress made is not satisfactory. It is
quite possible Ibis government in sup
port of tbe Monroe doctrine, may find it
necessary to do more than act as a
medium of a diplomatic intercourse
between Venezuela and Great Biilain,
and take an active part in the dispute,
in order to prevent the spoliation of the
South American republic whi'e in the
throes of civil war.

afternoon. In a speech made this even
