aided In his daring Job by a man who
entered the room as a poker player.
When his pal came In and gave tho
command, ho cried but: "For heaven's

BUILD NEW CM WH
CUBAN CENTRAL OPENED
FROM ' HAVANA TO SANTIAGO.
Trip of 500 Miles Can Now Be Made
in 24 Hours Will Open Up a Rich
Mining District.
Washington, Nov. 28. A dispatch
from Havana says tho Cuban Central
railroad, from Havana to Santiago,
will lie opened for traffic today. The
trip from Havana to Santiago, about
BOO miles, will be made in about 24
hours, whereas three days are requir
ed by steamboat, the only means of
travel heretofore.
With the opening of this new roal
road Cuba is expected to enter upon
a nqw era a career of industrial de
velopment and nctlvity which Is ex
pected to result in the betterment of
the inhabitants, commercial prosper
ity and the improvement of internal
affairs. Tho main line ot the road is
of standard gauge and its bridges
are of steel and masonry. The equip
ment generally is similar to that of
the best American roads, It being In
tended to run through sleeping oars
between Havana and Santiago. The
line runs through the heart of the
eastorn part ot the island, where
there is much undeveloped mineral
wealth in tho mountainous districts,
but want of capital has hitherto pre
vented its profitable production. Cop
per mines are of great extent and
rich, and water power Is plentiful.
Along the route of the main lino are
to bo found great areas of land of the
richest description, well watered and
suitable for raising sugar cane, to
bacco, corn, cotton, coffee and all
fruits of tho tropical and sub-tropical
regions, such as yams, oranges, man
goes, pineapples and bananas, .all
within a short distance of market.

Much Interest in Washington.
Washington, Nov. 28. The capital
Is alive with gossip regarding tho re
ported concerted action of Britain and
Germany against Venezuela. Advices
received here say that Germany Is
pioparing to rush two more warships,
making seven powerful engines of
war, in Venezuelan waters, capable
of landing a force of 2000 men. Eng
land has two strong cruisers there
now, and the Charybllsc sailed hur
riedly from Halifax last night with
secret orders, its destination believed
to he Laguayra.
Venezuela, It Is claimed, has been
persistently violating the rights ot the
two countries imposing indignities up
on their subjects, seizing their prop
erty and money and imprisoning
them upon trivial charges.
Tho state department has given out
no statement, but it is believed that
it will not interfere, as tho announce
ment ha Deen received from semi
official sources that neither country
desires permanent acquisition of ter
ritory, but will simply seize tho cus
toms houso and collect taxes to re
imburse their claims.
