BRITISH GUIANA VS. VENEZUELA
Monroe Doctrine Reasserted by An
buiador Bayard, and Bis Position
Supported at Washington.
Washington, March 13. Following di
rect upon the already accumulated for
eign trouble that this government baa to
contend with is the fact that the British
government is just now about to state its
case in the matter of the controversy be
tween Great Britain and Venezuela over
the boundary of Venezuela and British
Guiana. Tho intimations in official cir
cles are that Great Britain thinks it has
a strong case, which it is more than
willing to lay before the United States
government. Its claim is that the Ven
ezuelans have encroached upon British
territory with a view of working the
gold fields within the disputed limits.
In diplomatic circles here it is of interest
that England recognizes the sincerity of
this government's views regarding the
question, and has decided to act.
It is believed that Ambassador Bayard,
if hecannot get satisfactory explanations
from the court of St. James as to ' why
the disputed territory appears to Great
Britain to be its 'right, will be necess
itated under proper diplomatic usage to
demand his passports. Officials who
have been taking much interest in this
question ot American interests in South
America do not believe that Great
Britain will wish ! to assume a hostile
attitude on account of a strip of interior
territory contiguous to South American
rivers, and . trust in a receipt by Am
bassador Bayard of satisfactory explan
ations. " : "
'At thestate department here, the pos
ition is maintained that foreign interfer
ence with American affairs and with in
dependent American - nationalities is
hostile to our' national policy." This
ground was solidly assumed by Ambas
sador Bayard in his correspondence with
the British government, and his position
meets vigorous and emphatic support' in
Washington.
The entire matter up to its present
status can be summed up in the state
ment that Venezuela claims a strip of
ground in British Guiana over which
there baa been a controversy of long
standing,' and the counter declaration of
Great Britian that to it the ground in
dispute is subject. Upon the resting of
the claim of the British government up
on a basis that will prove satisfactory to
Ambassador Bayard now appears! to rest
a continuance of the friendly' relations
between the United States and Great
Britain.1' ;

The Island Republic.
Honolulu, March 7, per Steamship
Arawa, via San Francisco,! March 14,
Excitement over the recent rebellion
here is gradually quieting down. The
'Hawaiian government is now directing
its principal attention towards abettors
of insurrectionists, who 'are'' nOw on
American soil.
W. A. Kinney, who acted as judge ad'
cate of the military commission -which
Highest of all in Leavening Power.-
s t 'ur-Hit
tried the rebels, is among the passen
gers who will leave San Francisco today.
He carries with him testimony and affi
davits that the schooner Wahlbergis the
vessel which landed arms for the rebels,
and which is now detained at San Diego.
Kinney is accompanied by George
Townsend and Charlie Warren, half
whites, both of whom spent several days
on the schooner while she was lying off
the coast waiting to land arms for the
rebels. - They will be able to identify the
vessel and the captain or crew of the
craft.
Upon reaching San Francisco Kinney
will profteed to San Diego to act in be
half of the Hawaiian government. The
witnesses who accompany Kinney were
among the 25 rebels who were convicted
and sentenced for treason, but in view
of their recent services to the govern
ment President Dole has suspended
sentences.
Among the passengers on the steamer
were Captain William Davies, P. G.
Camerinos, Carl Klemrae, Henry von
Werthen, C. W. Asbford and ' Harry
Zuen. They are all from Honolulu, and
were released irom prison on condition
that they would leave the country. Be
fore leaving Ashford called on the ex
queen and asked her if he could do any
thing for her in America. She replied
that all possible had already been done.
The ex-queen has after all refused to
lease her Washington place residence.
Apparently she hopes soon to return
there, which seems quite unlikely. The
government feels the necessity of sep
arating her from access to the native
population, who wonld instinctively pay
homage to her.
The Hawaiian Annexation League are
vigorously perfecting and ' extending
their organization. They expect soon to
embrace most of the natives.
Antl-Toxine of Tetanus.
New York, March 14. Before the
Medico-Legal eociety a paper' was read
aet night by Paul Gibier, director of the
Nev York Pasteur institute, in which he
presented the interesting facts of a dis
covery in which he claimed that anti-
toxine of tetanus is a positive preventive
if not an absolute remedy for lockjaw.
He entered at length into the details of
the preparation of the anti-toxine, and
cited numerous cases where the intro-
duction of the wonderful fluid into the
system both prevented lockjaw and eff
ected cures.
Through a large microscope, which
Dr. Gibier had previously Bet upon the
platform, his hearers were enabled to
peep at magnified baccilli of tetanus with
which he had charged the glass. ' The
observers, many of whom thus took their
first object lesson in the study of bacter
iology, saw through the glass myriads of
globelike' objects apparently as big as
peas,' "bat in i reality invisible : to the
naked eye. ' ' ' 1 :
These! are the globes which produce
the terrible' tetanus," said Dr. Gibier,
The baccilli of tetanus cover all sections
of the earth inhabited by man or beast,
The germs are indigenous, I might say,
to the soil where man or animal lives,
Particularly in the stable myriads and
myriads of these germs of disease have
their being. The horse, more than any
other animal, is susceptible to tetanus.
and this may be accounted for1 from the
fact that tne nltn of tne stable is more
conductive to the development of the
tetanus baccilli than any other condition.
'The disease is hot Contracted by in-
halatiofl:'1 Il is'the 'reealt of the germs
being introduced into a wound or open
ing of the skin. Once in the wound the
germs of tetanus thrive wonderfully, and
in a few days produce that awful con
dition which results in the stiffening of
the muscles of the jaw, terrible rigidity
of frame and ends in death."
Dr. Gibief' 'quoted " statistics showing
tbat 65 per cent of the cases of tetanus
resulted fatally; 'these' figures including
deaths on the battlefield and in railway
accidents. The development of the
tetanus among -victims of railroad acci
dents, he said, was due to the . introduc
tion of the germ charged rail into the
wounda.

son. "It is such a simple thing and so
common that very few people,' unless it
is a case of pneumonia, pay any atten
tion to the cold. . New-. .York is one of
the i healthiest places on the Atlantic
Coast and yet there are. a great, many
cases of catarrh and consumption which
have their origin in ' this: neglect of the
simplest precaution of every day fife,
The most sensible ' advice, is, when you
have one get rid of it as soon as possible.
By all means do not neglect it." Dr. Ed

aid expectoration, open the secretions
