The Tribune prints the following: A cable message received at the of fices of the National Asphalt Company, from Us agent In Venezuela, announces that a revolution ha broken out in that country.

A GAMBLING SHIP. Proposition to Have a Floating M ma ture Monte Carlo In the Eng lish Channel. NEW YORK. Dec. IS. A dispatch to the Journal and Advertiser from Lon don says: A syndicate has been formed to buy an obsolete Atlantic liner, fit her up as a miniature Monte Carlo casino, moor her off the English coast just outside the three mile limit and run a big game In the English channel off Brighton, the place chosen. Launches win run back and forth to meet the London trains. The boat will be a floating hotel as well as a gambling resort and visitors may live aboard as long as they please. In luxurious surroundings. Experienced croupiers will be Imported from Monte Carlo and roulette will be the principal game played In strict accordance with Monaco rules. Nominally It will be a club, but any man belonging to any recognized club In Europe can easily obtain admission upon payment of a nominal fee. This Is similar to the rule of the Ostend Club. A private part of the ship will be devoted to a restricted club 1 ke any London club, with heavy subscrip tions and limited membership. This will be for private play. The promoters say making money Is not so much their object as providing a place where Englishmen can gamble. They reckon the profits of the hotel and restaurant business will be sufficient, tg j pay the expenses, so every reasonable concession will be made to gamu'er. j The cost of the ship and outfitting is estimated at 1250.000. while mora than that will be subscribed to stake the bank. ENGLAND NOT INDIFFERENT. London Times Say British Cannot Be lieve America Will Denounce Sol emn International agreement. . t LONDON. Dec. 19. Sir Charles Dllke. In an Interview published In the Daily Chronicle, emphasize the statement that there are countries besides Great Britain Interested In the Nlcaraguan canal. He points out that France Is Interested by treaty so that the question cannot be treated. In his opin ion, as merely between Great Britain and the United States. No great Importance, Is attached by Sir Charles to the question of fortifi cation of the canal In time of war. He things the matter is essentially and en tirely commercial and that the fortifi cation Is being used as a standing horse for the public." The Times, commenting upon the "misconception in the United States of England's calm attitude regarding the Hay-Pauhcefote treaty, says: 'The Idea that this calmness Is due to Indifference Is absurd and betrays a curious unfamillarity with English hab its and methods. We are not disturbed, simply because we cannot bring our selves to believe that a one-sided de nunciation of a solemn International agreement, solely and confessedly be cause It is Inconvenient, will commend Itself either to President McKlnley, Mr. Hay or the American people. "If Mr. McKlnley stands by the Hay Pauncefote arrangement, the action of the senate will not acquire International Importance. He haa Just been re-elected and holds a strong position and If he has the courage of his convictions he has only to exercise his undoubted constitutional rights In order to ren der the proceedings of the senate In nocuous. If he appeals boldly to the people can It be doubted that they would support him?" ENGLISHMAN FROZE TO DEATH. 'Another Fatality Reported From the Dawson Trail. SEATTLE. Dec. 19. Thomas Parker, a native of Lincolnshire. England, was frozen to death near the mouth of White river In the Klondike district, early in November. He and another man were building winter quarters and, when some dlstancs from camp, Parker fell through the Ice crossing a stream. He got out safely but dropped -on the trail before reach ing camp and froze to death. He wa about 37 years of age. LONDON RAPID TRANSIT. Believed to Be ths Only Solution of the Housing Problem. NEW YORK, Dec. 19.-A dispatch to the Tribune from London ay: Lord Salisbury rendered an Indirect tribute to Earl Roacbery In bringing up the housing question at the Conserva tive conference at the Whitehall room. He grew eloquent In advocating the re housing of the masses as the most ur gent of all the Issues of social reform and he took th precaution of referring to an old time speech of hi rn the subject, probably a proof that he wa rot a recent convert to the cause re vived by Rosebery. Practical reformers not In politics make no concealment of the fact that philanthropy and municipal socialism have failed to relieve the congested cen tres of London's population and that the underground transit offers, the only practicable solution of the housing 'lwN"" by keeping the millions In the suburbs In touch with their work. Th London county council has not at tempted to grapple with the transit problem but has left private companies free to burrow deep In the clay strata underlying the metropolis. The Paris municipal council. In con structing a similar system as a pubi c work, has cheapened the process by borrowing the money required at low rates. The London county council might have accomplished the am re sult and the facilities fnr economic fi nancing were more Important here than In Paris, for deep level tunnels are more rrp .f-Hve thfl;j tUn"l c! t ? ? fU"- f.ice and viaducts and open cuttlnK are Imi'Mctlcable In London. Thre are signs that the monev re quired for the carrying out of the num erous underirriund transit sohenvs l raised with difficulty and that some of the best London undertakings will be kept back on this account. The metro, politan and district railways are fii.M"r It difficult to obtain on suitable term the capital neded for the substituting of electric power fr steam on the old underground system and the report of the London and Globe finance corpora tion, which has been financing the Bak er Street Waterloo Railway, shows that the unfinished line needs large amount' of capital. Rumors are current that th Yerk' syndicate has been approached w'th proposals for the purchase of th Wa terloo and Baker Street concession, the completion of the line In conn-ctlon with the Charing Cross and Hamp stead enterprise, but the reports are premature. There are a good many electric undertakings which the syndi cate of Chicago capitalists tan have, but not on their own terms. The un derground electric railways may b some good Investments If the Central London In Its annual report exhibits a full margin of profit and no serious dprcltio'i from p'nnt and rol'lng stock In consequence of the Immense traffic, but Investors are not sur? of their ground. The cost of all these enterprises would have been greatly reduced If there had been a comprehensive transit scheme and If the London county council hnd undertaken the work with the credit of he metropolitan government behind It.

John, alia Rd Corbett. who ha served several terms in the penitentiary, was shot and In stantly killed late last night by Edward J. Grady, who surprised him with a companion in the act of committing a highway robbery. Grady fired, he says, only after Cor bett had turned his revolver on him and there seems to be no doubt that It was only his quickness and true aim that saved his life.

By November, 1S9S, transactions Involving about $100, 000 were open between her ladyship and Duncan's. "While the firm," said the plaintiff's counsel, "were ever ready with advice to I.ady Miles about buying slock and shares, hi nev r she bought they til ways sold." Toward the end of the dealings I.ady Miles' daughter suggested to Messrs, Duncan that It would be a good thing to sell Instead of buying. Mr. Hannay told her It would be ruinous to "sell a bear." Said Lady Miles "I now see It would have been rulnoui to him, so he did not sell." Lady Miles derided to go In more heavily. A statement of her account rendered on November It showed that the pro ceeda of the sale of her 1500 In consoN well as some gold field shares had been absorbed. "A portion of your capital Is used t ) deduct the value of your shares," was the way the firm put It. When hs In structed them to cbwe her speculative accounts she was told that all her mon ey had been swallowed up besides which, she owed the firm the sum of CI.Sji). This meant that IjvIv Mil s had tost altogether 10,719. She was being cross-examined when the case W:ijt ml- Juurned. REKORM HAS ISKKN iMIKOKED.
