duced to a dollar per bale
It woild not be necessary he asserted
to ran beats to effect thto reduction
either
Just so the river was open and a few
boats were kept at Dallas ready to steam
up that would ba enough to make the
railroads cut their rates
Sicca the publication of the gentlemans
talk however certain Galveston Interests
have raoda aa effort to demonstrate that
discrimination was being praetictd asalrst
Ihun by traffic men whom they com-
plained of to tha railroad commlsson
as being engaged In diverting cotton from
Galveston to New Orleans
To panicuIarUfc It has been and to
twins charsed by the Galveston plaintiffs
that the Hou tou and Texaa Central rail-
road Is charging fieri more per laic
to haul cotton to Galveston than to New
Orleans Other roads are also credited
with rlmllar and apparently more aggra-
vated favoritism toward the Atlantic sea
tcard Figures are given to back th o
complaints but they arc figures extracted
from through bills of lading signed en
coTsigunents to Europe No evidence is
produiod to demonstrate that the shipper
is getting any the worst of It or that
his cotton to being tn any way hindered
from reaching tho consumer rapidly and
la gosid shape On the contrary the
Impre sfon to sought to b conveyed
that cotton to b lng transported to Bos-
ton New York or New Orleans creap r
than It is transported to Galveston while
as a matter of fact the Instances cited
to create this Impression are of cotton
shipprd to Liverpool or tho continent
through Boston New York New Or-
leans and Galveston and not of cotton
shlpi eil to Boston New York New
Orleans and Galveston It Is admitted
that tho railroads shrink their divisions
when they take the cotton out through
Boston New Yorit and New Orleans but
the shipper to the winner by the
shrinkage
It has never been clalned however
that the rairoacto will hatri a bale of
cotton foi tho Boston New lork
nnd Vow Orleans market at le or even
Ht tv same rate as they will Imul It fcr
th Galienton market although from the
way the Galvc ton complainants present

ANOTHER WAR CLOUD
England and Germany on the Ragged
Edge of War
New York January 7 A dispatch to
the Journal from London says The gov-
ernment eyes are still on news from Cape
town meantime the most serious coali-
tion Is nearer home England and Ger-
many are on the ragged edge of watr
Following the ttory that Emperor Will-
iam had told Leyds agent of the Trans-
vaal thot he meant to send a German
minister fo Johannesburg comes tlie re-
port that tho emperor lias stated that he
would recognize the complete Independ-
ence of the TrannaaL
Reiteration has strengthened the story
which If true meant neither more nor
less than war between England and Ger
many
Emperor William has not ships to fight
England and will not do so alone
Tho case is one either of pure bluster
or elro Is th > outcome of a well arranged
plan between Russia and Germany In pur
auance of which Emperor William takes
the first Flight excuse for announcing his
Intentions
The situation was Intense here last night
because J ngland Is not averse to tills
war as bhe was to u war with the United
States
Tho editors In chl f of all tlie leading
London dallies were oipit for by Mr
Chamberlain and closeted with him for
some time after which he went to the
Islo of Wight to seo tho queen By her
command he had been scndl4T dispatches
by wire and private messengers twice a
day so that the queen was well Informed
before commanding him to visit her Tho
whole sltuitlori therefore bears an ugly

VENEZUELAN AFFAIRS
A Wn > feuggestcd for Settling the Whole
Matter
Londiin January 7 Henry Norman
special commissioner of the Daily Chron-
icle cables his paper us follows from
Washington
There is a heroic way of settling the
wholo difficulty fraught with honor to
both governments and with results of
priceless worth to both people
The present delay consists In the fact
that the United blales government con
alders Itself In honor bound to Insist upon
a certain course whlih tho British gov-
ernment consiiltrs Itself In honor bound
to
refuse to adopt Lv try day spent here has
convlnccil me more trnrgly that It Is
Impossible to cxtigierato the seriousness
of such an International situation If the
British pul lie is misled by the optimistic
sentiments of New York It may tin 1 itself
suddenly faco to face with
an appalling
danger If tho American government nets
only In the belief that because Cit at Bit
nin is
with an European crisis
therefore sho villi knuckle down to any
American demand It
may suddenly dis-
cover that tho European e rlsls has blown
over and that Ii has war with England on
Its hands
In all 2overnment departments here
the
situation s regarded ns serious de
very
spite eviry effor made on behalf of peace
Neve the
ken el of tho dispute he In the
principle of arbitration the solution m
b found therein also If Lord
Salisbury
will say that nItlough he must maintain
lis rfural U arbitrate on Venezuela by
Itself ho Is prepared to conch do a treaty
with the United St itfs under which nil
luestlons felling of diplomatic settlement

The American government I know v ill
rceelvo his communication with warm

A tieal to partly crncluded to which
America Canada and the ilrltlsh am
bassador In Washington have all essoniel
placing the matter In a direct w ly of tot
tlemcnt It only awaits the a ret of ho
fcrelgn office far this treuty to become
cpeiatlv >
After urging that this treaty be pressed
forward Mr Norman concludes
It would Ixi a lmcnlnblo mistake for
England to bollcvo that there Is any d
vision of opinion worth cotslelcrlng In
this country Washington far moro than
Now ork Is tho pulse of tho United
btates nnd I havo been feeling that pulse
for over a vveok aivl I assert despite
erltlelnm or contradlitlons that America

If Lord Salisbury decides that it
