THEY EXPECT WAR.
People in Venezuela Disputed Ground
- Know It Value.
Georgetown, British Guiana, April
9. If the Venezuela-British Guiana
boundary dispute is deoided in favor of
Venezuela, 99 out of every 100 Eng
lishmen in this country will lose
money by it, and the same may be
said of nearly every American living
in the colony, exoept the United States
consul. British Guiana is divided into
three oounties, Demerara, Berbioe and
Essequibo. Praotioally all the gold
fields are in Essequibo- county, and
nearly all of the territory whioh oomi
prises that oounty is under dispute.
While the rest of the world is look
ing upon the question as practically
settled so far as the possibility of war
is conoerned, the point of view here is
entirely different.
Gold, there is here, and to what ex
tent may be judged from the registra
tion for the last three days, every bit
of it being taken out by placer mining.
The day before yesterday 673 ounces;
yesterday 808 ounces, and today 1,000
ounces were taken out.
Owing to the voloamo nature of the
country and the difficulty experienced
in getting to the fields, long canoe
trips being necessary, up to the present
time mining has been very crude.
As for the British claim that there
are 52,000 British subjects in Essequi
bo oounty, exolusive of government
officials, it 1b very misleading. If a
line should be drawn due south from
Morocco river it would be found that
the aotual settlers between that and
the Sohomburgk line would not num
ber 1,500, while in the northwest dis
trict, that on the coast directly south
of the Orinooo river, where the best
quartz is supposed to exist, there are
not more than 2,000 actual settlers.
Rioting- In Hayti.
New York, April 9. A riot ocour
red at Jaomel, Hayti, on March 27.
The marauders burned several houses,
and killed, it is said, ten people, and
women and children had to flee from
their homes in. the poorer quarters to
mansions outside the city for safety.
The firing became so general after
nightfall that the Dutch Royal Mail
Company's steamer Prinoe Wilhelm IV
had to leave the harbor without her
clearance papers and part of her cargo.
This vessel has just arrived here,
bringing a number of Haytians, who
were banished because of their display
over the death of President Hippolyte.
' The Virtue' Rich Output.
Baker City, Or., April 9. Superin

to be retorted in two sections. Its
value was over $30,000. The weight
on an ordinary Buffalo soale is 110
pounds. -
A BOLD PLOT.
Plan to Kidnap Corneliu Vanderbilt In
California.
San Franoisoo, April 8. George E.
Gard, late chief of the Southern Paoiflo
Company's deteotive servioe, oame up
from Los Angeles last night and gave
publioity to one of the most remark
able stories of an anarchist plot that
was probably ever heard in San Fran
oisoo. The plot, aooording to Mr.
Gard, was nothing less than a con'
s piracy to hold up the Vanderbilt speo-
ial tram and abduot Cornelius Vander
bilt, and it has transpired that the
officials of the Southern Pacific, who
were informed of the matter through
Mr. Gard before the Vanderbilt party
reached El Paso, have been taking all
possible precautions to prevent . the
carrying out of the plot. :
bnortly before the Vanderbilt party
readied El Paso," said Mr. Gard, in
speaking of the affair - at the Palace
hotel, "I received a letter whioh de
tailed In some degree the plans of a
gang of extremists for making money
out of the kidnaping of Cornelius Van
derbilt. As to my informant, I do not
think it necessary to say any more than
that he is in San Franoisoo. The let:
ter was written from here, and the men
who were working out the plot, so I
was given to nnderstand, were making
San Franoisco their base of operations.
The letter went on to say that the men
had been conspiring for some time,
but had not been able to agree on any
plan for making a haul until the an
nouncement appeared in the papers
that Vanderbilt and Depew were on
their way to California. They imme
diately pioked out Vanderbilt for a
shining mark and prooeeded to lay'
plans for a hold-up.
My informant was one of the gang,
and in his letter to me he said that he
would oontinue to act in the role of
conspirator, and keep me informed of
their movements andanyi further de
velopments in their plans.
The letter was the most startling
epistle I ever received, and I was con
vinced of its genuineness, for I knew
the person that wrote it, as well as his
history and associations. "
MORE PILES PULLED.
Trapman Forced by Threat, to Ue Hi
. Own Piledriver.
Astoria, April 8. Sunday, thirty
fishing-boats, loaded with fishermen,
their , wives and a brass band, sailed
down the bay to celebrate Easter.
They ended up the exoursion by forcing
a trapman to use his own piledriver to
pull up about 150. piles off Desdemona
sands, near New Astoria. The man's
name is Pettiwink, and he is a hard
working family man. He was given
the choice of being strung up or re
moving the piles, but without waiting
the fishermen got in and helped pull
the piles. A . large number of new.
piles were also loosened and floated
down the river to the sea. During
the performance,' the band played
"America." . , :
It is stated on good authority that
the Scandinavian Fishermen's Paoking
Association has offered to pay the men
5 cents if the men will guarantee to
fish for no one else at less than 5 cents.
Overwhelmed by Office-Seekers.
Seattle, April 8. Mayor Black's
resignation, so soon after taking office,
created much excitement here tonight.
In his resignation he requested that
William D. Wood be eleoted by the
cunoil to succeed him, and this has
just been done by a vote of 11 to 2.
There is already talk about the A. P.
A. influence having something to do
with Mayor Black's determination to
quit publio life, but the real reason is
known to be that his health would not
stand the strain he-was put under by
seekers after office. Mr. Blaok was
unacquainted with politics, and he
was elected as a business man on the
Republican ticket, to give a business
administration. , When he took office
the rush of people for places over
whelmed him, and he says in his
resignation that he would rather be
succeeded by a good man immediately
than to hold on longer and split the
term of office. Judge Wood is a prdm
inent and well-known citizen, a Re
publican, and well versed in publio
affairs.
A Georgia Tragedy.
Tolboton, Ga., April 8, Miss Sallie
Emma Owen was shot and instantly
killed last night in the parlor of J. H.
MoCoy's -residenoe, by W. L. Ryder, a
dentist. A. Bersons, a oandidate for
oongress, was standing beside Miss
Owen. He was shot at, but reoeived
only a flesh wound. It is presumed
Miss Owen refused to marry Ryder.
Miss Owen was a graduate of the Wes
leyan female oollege, and belonged to
one of the wealthiest families and
most . aristooratio. . set in Georgia.
Ryder was captured a few miles from
town. He had made an unsuccessful
attempt at suicide by cutting his
throat ,
Mill Boiler Rxploded.
Ridgetown, Ontario, April 8. At
