Break Through. Rebels' Lines.
COLON, Colombia, Aug. 1L No definite
news has reached here of the battle be
tween government troops and revolution
ists at Agua Dulce. but it Is said that
General Bertl, the Government leader, is
still holding a strong position at Agua
Dulce, and has been able to break through
weak points of General Herrera's lines
for the purpose of obtaining cattle. Gov
ernment reinforcements from Savanllla
are expected hourly at the Isthmus.

FOUR THOUSAND ARB HOMELESS.
Petit Gonve a. Mass of It u inn From
Fire Started by Revolutionists.
PORT AU PRINCE. Aug. 11. The corre
spondent of the Associated Press visited
Petit Goave yesterday and found that the
town had been entirely destroyed, there
being nothing left but a pile of ruins.
About 4 0O0 persons are homeless and are
greatly in need of aslstance. The greater
number of them have sought shelter in
the Slmmonds factories, near the town.
The French cruiser D'Assas arrived at
Petit Goave yesterday with provisions for
the sufferers and returned to Port au
Prince with 200 women and children and
15 wounded men. The authorities refused
to permit the Firmlnlsts to leave, fearing
they would go to other points to take up
arms again.
Each party accuses the other of having
set fire to Petit Goave. but the general
belief Is that Chlcayoe. the Flrmlnlst com
mander, resolved to destroy the town
when he saw that he could not hold it
against the Fouchardlsts.
A Port au Prince dispatch on Saturday
last gave news of the . burning of Petit
Goave after an attack had been made on
the place by Fouchardlsts.-
According to that dispatch General Chl
cayoe. who Is Minister of the Interior to
the Firmlnlst provisional government, set
fire to the town and abandoned It.
A Complete MinlHtcrinl A'Ictory.
COPENHAGEN, Aug. H. The Lands
thing elections In the Faroe Islands re
culted In a complete Ministerial victory.
The campaign turned on the sale of the
Danish West Indies to the United States,
and the government captured all oppo
cltlon. Other wards will hold elections
next month. A good Ministerial majority
Is confidently expected. The treaty will
be taken up soon after the opening of the
Rlgsdad, In October.
(At the last session those opposed to the
sale of the islands had a majority of three
in the Landsthing)
AMERICAN FORCE TO THE SCENE.
Americans in Venezuela to Be Pro
tected From Rebels' Attaclc.
WASHINGTON. Aug. 11. Minister Bow
en at Caracas today advised the State
Department that the Germans Intend to
land a naval force at Porto Cabello to pro
tect German Interests there, which are
threatened by the uprising now In prog
ress. The Minister advised that the United
States follow suit. After a conference be
tween the officials of the State and Navy
Departments, instructions were cabled to
Commodore Nicholas, of the Topeka, to
proceed from La Guayra to Porto Ca
bello and to land a naval force In case of
attack. The Topeka has left for Port
Cabello.
The trouble at Porto Cabello grows out
of the uprising that has convulsed Vene
zuela for some time. It Is directed against
President Castro, and has kept the coun
try in a state of ferment for many
months. Minister Bowen recpntly sent
word that President Castro was leaving
for the front with the expectation of
fighting a decisive battle with the insurg
ents. The latter have been gathering
strength at Porto Cabello.
The American Consul at that point tele
graphed recently that the lives of some oZ
the American residents, including mem
bers of his family, were Imperiled, and
two of the ladles of the Consul's family
were taken away In a Government ship.
Since then there has been no word of a
critical condition of affairs, but the dis
patch of today indicates that a crisis has
been reached.
There appears to be no quostlon as to
the right of the German naval forces to
land for the protection of German inter
ests. It In no way involves the Monroe'
doctrine. Gormany has been keeping close
watch on Venezuela for some months,
and at one time contemplated taking a
Venezuelan port in order to compel the
payment of certain German claims.
The present landing of a German force
has no connection with Germany's for
mer movement against Venezuela, and
the assurances heretofore given by Ger
many serve in the present case to show
that there is no ulterior purpose behind
the protection of German interests at
Porto Cabello.
Dr. WIlnon Safe nt-Bocas Del Toro.
WASHINGTON. Aug. 11. The State De
partment today received a cable dispatch
from Consul Gottschalk at Bluefields, say
ing that Dr. Russell Wilson Is safe at
Bocas del Toro and also that his mother
will leave for the United States very
soon. The State Department has never re
ceived any information from Nicaragua
that Dr. Wilson had been under arrest
there. The dispatch of Consul Gottschalk
is Interpreted as confirmatory of that or
Dr. Wilson's brother In an Ohio dispatch,
printed this morning, to the effect that
his brother had not been under arrest.
Rebels Cut Cable at Barcelona.
WASHINGTON. Aug. 1L Minister Bow
en has cabled the State Department from
Caracas, Venezuela, that the revolution
ists have cut the cable at Barcelona. Min
ister Bowen says the cable was cut im
mediately after the receipt of a message
stating that the revolutionists were enter
ing the city.
Earthquakes in Corfu.
NEW YORK, Aug. 1L A special cable
dispatch to the Herald from Corfu says
two earthquake shbeks occurred there at

ference' of England.
LONDON. Aug. 11. The final meotlng

giving preference to British and colonial
tenders as against foreign tenders in the
allotment of public contracts. It was

tions to the British Navy should be large
ly Increased on condition that certain ves

quickly as they could. By means of a
shaft, the flames quickly spread through
the three upper floors to the roof. Two
alarms were sent In, and the firemen en

MURDERED IN COLD BLOOD
CORONER'S INQUEST OVER BODY OF
aiRS. BARTHOLIN.
Chicago police Has Doubled Its Ef
forts to Locate Her Son Im
portant Witness Found.
CHICAGO, Aug. 11. Developments to
day In the mysterious murders of Minnie
Mitchell and Mrs. Annie Bartholin led
the police to double their efforts to locate
William J. Bartholin. At the Coroner's
inquest, after the body of the older wom
an, which was found Saturday night
crammed into the hole in the cement cel
lar of the Bartholin home, neighbors
readily identified the corpse as that of
Mrs. Bartholin. The burial today of Mln
nlne Mitchell by her family removed all
doubt In the public mind that tho body
in the field at Seventy-fourth and State
streets last week was tha"t of the young
woman who was last seen with Bartholin.
Complete hearing over Mrs. Bartholin's
body was postponed by the Coroner un
til August 21. in the hope that additional
clews to the murderer may be obtained.
Today it developed that Bartholin had
quarreled with his mother Just before she
disappeared over the question of bring
ing his prospective wife to live at his
mother's home.
Late developments today indicated that
Bartholin may have made a careful Sur
vey of the field where Minnie Mitchell's
body and clothing were found. William
Waldrop told the police that on Wednes
day. July 30, he met William Bartholin
at Seventy-fourth and State streets with
in a few feet of the spot where the dead
body of the young woman was found.
Waldrop talked with Bartholin, whom he
knew personally. The last he saw of him
was when he boarded a northbound State
street car. It is supposed that the mur
der of Minnie Mitchell took place the
same night. Bartholin's presence at the
field where the body was found later
gives color to tKe theory that the murder
was planned In cold blood.
The police are using all their Ingenuity
to force Oscar H. Thompson, Mrs. Bar
tholin's principal roomer, to give addi
tional Information about the crime or
crimes committed in the Calumet-avenue
death house. They have been working on
the theory that the Mitchell girl may
have been killed there and taken in
Thompson's laundry wagon to the lonely
flpld. A test Is to be made to prove this
theory- The horse Is to be started south
and left to its own instincts In the hope
that It will stop at Seventy-fourth nd
State streets.
Residents In the neighborhood of Forty
third street and Calumet avenue today
filed a protest with the Police Depart
ment, stating that the crowds of curios
ity hunters and rubbish occasioned by
ransacking the Bartholin house were be
coming a nuisance.
IMPORTANT WITNESS LOCATED.
Roomer EdTrnrds Is in Denv'er Why
He Suspected Bartholin.
DENVER. Aug. 1L Milton L. R, Ed
wards, who formerly roomed at me name
of Mrs Anna Bartholin, in Chicago, and
for whom the police of that city have
been looking In order to learn what he
may knbw concerning the murders of Mrs.
Bartholin and Miss Minnie Mitchell. Is now
in Denver. To- a reporter of the Asso
ciated Press this morning he mado the fol
lowing statement:
"The reason they have been unable to
find mc Is that I wrote Robert Mitchell,
the brother of Minnie Mitchell, from
Omaha, and told him why I had left Chi
cago so suddenly. I related to him the
tact that I had become suspicious of the
actions of William Bartholin, and decided
that It would be unsafe for me to remain
longer In Chicago. As soon as I read In an
Omaha-paper the story of the girl's mur
der I communicated with the brother, who
!s a personal friend of mine. I had been
working in Chicago for the Chicago Junc
tion Railway Company, which is connected
with the Union stockyards. I was about
to go on my vacation when the untoward
actions of William Bartholin hastened my
ceparture.
"Mrs. Bartholin had not been at the
house for perhaps 15 days before I left.
William Batholln. contrary to his custom,
stayed about the house most of his time,
and whenever I broached the subject of
the welfare of his mother, or her where
abouts, he would Immediately change the
subject. Of course. I had no specific
grounds on which to base any information
for the police, but on the night of the 31st,
as I remember It, I spoke to several of -e
neighbors of my suspicions.
"On that same night Mrs. Mitchell, the
mother of the 'murdered girl, and her
daughter - In - law, Mrs. Robert Mitchell,
were Cillers at the house, and they wanted
to know about William, who had not been
seen for several days, and where Mrs.
Bartholin was. At that time I told them
of what I feared, and advised them to get
detective on the trail of Bartholin. If
I had known that the body of Mrs. Bar
tholin was then lying under the floor of
the basement of the house, I should cer
tainly have informed the police.
"I did not know Bartholin very well, be
cause he was rather' uncommunicative. I
knew of no motive that could have
prompted the murder.
"Since I have left Chicago I have been
more or less 111, and this was one of the
reasons why I left Omaha. I am now In
Denver for the purpose of securing em
ployment. I have letters here from some
of the innucntlal men of Chicago, and
other credentials showing my character.

am a member of the Independent Order of

tered at the Rowley Hotel, in South

worked a few days In a South Omaha
packing-house, but told the hotel clerk he
was used to a better class' of work, and
that hf was going to Denver.
STORY SON TOLD ROOMER.

TOLEDO. O.. Aug. 11. O. E. Hunter, a
former- roomer with Mrs. Annie Bar
tholin, found murdered in Chicago, is
now In this city. He talks In a straight
forward manner concerning his seven
months' tenancy of the Bartholin house.
He left Chicago on Friday, August 1.
coming here In response to a letter from
h!s brother. ex-County Treasurer Samuel
A. Hunter. His story Is this:
"To the best of my recollection, the
last time I saw Mrs. Bartholin was on
July 4, when 1 paid her my rent. I hardly
ever saw her, except on pay day. I often
met young Bartholin at a cigar store. He
appeared to be a popular young fellow,
well esteemed In the neighborhood."
Mrs. Bartholin disappeared on July 8,
and two or three days after that Hunter
says he met Will, the son, and asked
when his mother was, as his (Hunter's)
bed bad not bten made. Young Bartholin
said she had gone to Michigan, and that
he would see that the room was attended
to regularly, which was done.
"July 28 was my next meeting with
Bartholin," continued Hunter, "He said
his rocther had not yet returned, that the
gas bill was due, and requested some
money. I paid him L This was the last
I saw of Bartholin. On July SI, a Mr.
Thompson, who had been rooming In the
house for 1 years, notified me that Win
had gone away to get -married, and that
as nothing had been heard of the old lady
he would -close up the house. I left the
next day for Toledo.

NEW TORK. Aug. 11. Prince Chen, ac
companied by Assistant Secretary of
Ste Pierce. Wu Ting Fang, the Chinese

secretaries to the Prince and Mr. Wu,
went to Oyster Bay today to visit Pres
ident Roosevelt at. Sagamore Hill. The
party boarded the gunboat Sylph shortly
after 9 A. M., and the vessel sailed a few
minutes later.
The visit of the party to Sagamore Hill
was very . Interesting and delightful. bth
to the President and to the distinguished
Chinamen who were his callers. The vis
itors particularly appreciated the
thoughtfulncss and consideration of Mr.
Roosevelt In sending the Sylph for them,
and so expressed themselves to him. The
visit was social in its nature. Prince
Chen took occasion to express to the
President on behalf of the Emperor of
China the deep sense of gratitude the
Chinese people feel toward the United
States because the army of this country
protected and really prevented the de
struction of many handsome palaces In
the City of Pekln during the troubles
there two years ago. He also expressed
the hope that the bonds of amity and
commerce between the United States and
China might become closer and closer as
time went on. To this the President re
sponded that It would be his effort by all
means at his command to promote the
good feeling at present existing between
the two countries, as well as to improve
