HARD TO MATCH
The Very EfTectivs Argument
Put up By a Column
ot German Troops.
IIhums, Dec 21. A dispatch from
Von Wnldercee Kiys: "Gnndell's column
stipcwsfnly encountered a forro of Box
err December 14th at Yung 1-ing, near
the eastern Imperial tombs. Fifteen
Boxers were killed. A thousand Chinese
who remain under Fang do I.Iijk have
driven out I.titoi.
London, Dec 21. "All tho govern
rnentH havo approved the British amend
ment" savs tho Pekln correspondent
of tho Morning Tost" and tins demands
will bo proFcneed to tlio Chinese pleni
potentiaries without any supges'Ion of
an alternative.
"On many grounds tho Germans aro
gaining a worse reputation for severity
than the Russians ever had. Tho coun
try is practically in a defenseless etato
moreover because Count' Von Walderseo
will not allow Chlncso troops to do any
thing nnd tho foreign troops are nbsent
or engaged in looting,
"It is stated that about 10 days ago
tho Gorman troops visited Tung Ohutiu
and shot GO Imperial troops who were
engaged in surpassing Boxora and also
killed IH) other Ch'inoae including threo
converts. Thoy took 200 prisoners
including ."0 natives attached to the
Anglican mission.
"In consequence of an appeal from tho
magistrates however tho prisoners wero
liberated in return for tlio payment of
twontv thousand tools. This punitive
expedition was in defiance of the under
standing that no auoh measures should
bo taken ponding the negotiations. Tho
Germans aro said to have looted the
place."
,1'kkin, Dec. 21. Yesterday's meeting
of tho foreign envoys was protracted and
somewhat stormy, owing to tiiodoslto to
discover who djscloseH to tho Chinese
what every minister has pledged to keep
secret. I.l Hung Chang invariably
knows within two hours nftor the close
of u meeting what has occurred.
WAHiiiNflios, Dec. 21. Instructions
wero sent toda yto Conger, at Tokln, to
sign an agreomont, which, according to
I'ekiu advices, already has been slgnod
by all tlio other ministers nttho Chinese
capital. Tills instruction Is sont witli
8OD10 reluctance, because the agreement
us It now stands does not completely
represent the view of United Slates Gov
ernment. But it is believed no favorable

OMAHA POLICE
SUSPECT CROWE
Ommiv, Dec. 21. It is staled this
morning that Pat Crowe, well known to
local police circle?, is tho man whom the
police suspect of being tho leader of tho
gang who nbdueted Edward Cudnhy
Tuesday night. Oflicers are looking for
Crowe, but ho has not been arrested
Tho polico nnd detectives are inclined
to believe that men not well acquainted
with the city and tlio surrounding coun
try would not havo been able to manage
the affair us it was carried on. For this
reason they are searching for Beverul lo
cal men known to bear a bad reputation
Young Cudaliy 1b none tho worse for
his experience, nnd among othor things
he learned from his raptors was some of,
their plans. One of thorn said to iiinl:
" Doyouk!iow," "ho nskod, that wo
have been watching that house of vours
out there for tlio last two months? Vi-ll,
we have. What wo really wanted was
to got ono of the littlo girfs-your sisters,
but wo did not got ji chance. Finally we
became desperate, nnd determined lo
take the bull by the horns nnd nab you."
Lnte Inst night Mr. Cudaliy announced
he would pay $25,000 rewurd for the
apprehension of tho abductors of his son,
f5000 for ouo or $1000 for two of them.
An extra forco of Pinkurtons arrived
this morning and wero put to work on
inu cano. tiuuauy this morning con
firmed the offer of a reward of $.'5,000
for the arrest of tho abductors,
ASPHALT MINES
CONTRACT ANNULLED
Nkw Yoiik, Dec. 21. A disnatch to
tho Herald from Caracas says:
President Castro has iBsued a decree
announcing that the New York und
Bermudeso Companys's concession
that was founded by Gannon and
entitling the company to mine nil the
asphalt in the Stato of Bermurdcso for
25 years Is annulled and that the titles
to tho asphalt mines issued in 1888 are
invalid
Tho decree aims at depriving the com
pany of its rights and properties. Pres
ident Castro recognizes two titles which
rover u lama nortlon of the cnmnnnv'H
Aunlinlt Ifirwl ntul urhfnli wnrn -vrnti.wl In
u group of native ollicialu and promoters.
Tlio native capitalists recently sold
these titles while proceedings
for their nullification wore pond
ing to American speculations who
have i ml need President Castro aflor
much diplomncy to issuo the decree
ugalnst the New York nnd Bermudoeo
Company.
In tho opinion of many Venezuia law
yers the decrco is unconstitutional.
Many persons will be out of work if
tho drcrto is enforced. Tho New York J
nnd Bormuidoso Company is the largest I
American interest in Venezuia. I
It liua a largo amount of capital at
stuko and will not surrender possession
of tho asphalt fields. It has just erected
the largest asphalt refinery in tho world.
Tho company has hud peaceful
possession ot tho proporty for more than
twelve years. Tho action of Presidout
Castro Is regarded hero as a raid of vost
ed rights,
