I 1 I A . f" I r II NEGOTIATIONS HAVE REACHED A CRITICAL STAGE. REVEALED BY CORRESPONDENCE tentative Program Is to Place Prohib itive Tariff on Venezuelan Exports of Coffee, Exclude Asphalt, or Leave Matter to President. Washington, April 1. The long ex pected correspondence between Amer ica and Venezuela respecting ponding American claims against the latter country was submitted to the senate and Is almost certain to create a pro found impression. It will be difficult to digest the vast mass of material which Secretary Root has placed be fore congress, but even a cursory in spection of the documents makes it evident that negotiations have reached a critical phase. All of the correspondence and docu ments were referred' to the senate committeo on foreign relations. Those members of the committee who havo already familiarized themselves with Ihe situation have nrranged tentative ly a program, which consists of threo propositions, as follows: Place a prohibitive tariff on Veno Euelnn coffeo, the exports of which constitute 45 per cent of the entiro Venezuelan foreign trade and 90 per cent of the coffee is taken by the Unit ed States; exclude all importations of nsphriU from Lake Dermudez, the product of which has been taken almost entirely by the. United States; authorize the president to exercise tho general power to take whatever steps he may consider necessary to treat with Venezuela In the future. Tho most interesting features of tho correspondence are those in which Secretary Root figured. Various at tempts had been made by preceding administrations to effect a settlement of tho American claims, tho late Sec retary Hay having gone so far as to lay down what was regarded as al most an ultimatum. But all of these attempts failed of success, and after a lapse of many months Secretary Root felt bound to again strive to reach an agreement. In a letter to Minister Russell on Feb. 28, 1Q07, Mr. Root roviewed tho difficulties encountered by the various American claimants and instructed Mr. Russell to demand remedy and re dress. Intricate as may seem tho com plications of the various cases, they are crystal when compared to the muddle of concession on concession, revocation of mining titles, wild land titles, and, titles tundpr changing con stitutions and varying laws; Intrigue, l evolution, imprisonment and death, all of which are woven and' Interwoven in the case of tho claim ngainst Vene zuela of the New York and Dermudez company. Tho company Is now com pletely dispossessed of what is re gaitled as tho largest asphalt hike in the world, and has been condemned by Venezuelan courts to pay that gov ernment a fine of $5,000,000 for Incit ing revolution. Though repeatedly requested, Ven ezuela lias refused to arbitrate this case and it Is the opinion of Solicitor Scott that it is inadvisable to resub mit tho claim through tho ordinary channels.

ALDKICH BILL PASSES CURRENCY PLAN GOES THROUGH SENATE BY VOTE OF 42 TO 16. Measure Provides for Not More Than $50,000,000 of Emergency Currency. State, County and Municipal Bonds Basis of Circulation. Washington, March 2S. The Aid rich currency bill was passed by tho senate by a voto of 4t to 1G, In tho main a party vote. Previous to tho taking of tho voto on the Aldrlch bill a voto was taken on tho Bailey sub stitute, authorizing the government, In stead of the national banks, to Issue tho emergency circulation, for which the bill provides. The vote on tho substitute stood 42 to 13, nnd this voto was entirely partisan, even Sen ator LaFollette casting his vote with the Republicans. Threo Democrats, Teller, Johnston and Owen, voted for the bill, and live Republicans, Borah, Bourne, Brown, Heyburn and LaFollette, against it. An interesting feature of the pas sage of the bill was a reiteration by Aldrlch of his promise to bring In a bill for an investigation of tho entire banking system of tho country, with a view to instituting reforms. Provisions of the Bill. As passed, tho bill provides for not moro than $500,000,000 of emergency currency, to bo issued to national banks upon tho deposit by them of state, county and municipal bonds, to ue npproveu by the secretary of tho treasury. Tho currency is to be issued with a view to securing an equitable distribution of the currency over tho United States and in accordance with tho unimpaired capital and surplus of banks in each state. Banks are to pay for this emergency circulation one half of 1 per cent a month during the first four months it is circulated ana' afterwards three-quarters of 1 per cent a month. Tho bill provides that no bank shall pay less than 1 per cent on government funds deposited with them. As amended, tho bill carries an Im portant change In banking laws relat ing to bank reserves. This amend ment provides that of the 15 per cent reserve required to be kept by banks not in reserve cities, four-fifths of this is to bo kept In tho vaults of tho banks, and of 'that amount one-third can bo in the form of securities of the kind required. By another nmendment, the period during which one-hfllf of l per cent interest is to be charged was reduced' from six to four months, after which three-quarters of 1 per cent Is to be charged until redeemed. At the instance of LaFolIetto, an amendment was adopted prohibiting any national bank from Investing Its funds In stocks or other securities of a corporation, the officers or directors of which nro officers or directors of the bank, and providing a penalty of imprisonment of from one to five yeurs. In accepting this amendment, Aldiich stated that he had not time to consider tho amendment fully, but was in sympathy with Its general pur pose. He said it could be perfected In conference. The proposition to insert a provision for a government guaranteo of depos its in national banks was the subject ot an extended debate, and was de feated by a voto of 11 to 4C, most of the Democratic voto being against the proposed amendment. Republican leaders Jn the house wore very reticent about predicting tho course of the Aldrlch bill In that branch of congress. Speaker Cannon refrained from making comment and somo of tho chiefs of tho majority were equally silent. Enough was gath ered, however, to justify the predic tion with reasonable certainty that when tho bill goes to the house from the senate it will be referred to the committee on banking and currency. showed a general understanding that tho niaJrlty will hold pretty fast to its agreement to support the currency bill introduced by Its lender, John Sharp WilllaniB This bill was report ed favorably to the house by the Dem ocratic menibers of tho banking and currency committeo as a substitute for the Fowler bill.

BOMB PLOT HUNT YIELDS GLEW BcrkirMii Atralgned'ln Court Charged with Advising Union Square Meeting. Now York, April 1. Further ovl denco has been unearthed by tho po lice In connection with tho Union square bomb throwing tragedy which Is of such important naturo that Alex ander Berkman, treasurer of tho An archists' Federated union, was ar raigned In court on an affldnvlt chnrg' lng him with advising tho Union squaro meeting. Detcctlvo Lieuten ant Wnrzansky told Mnglstrato Droego that ho would not dlvulgo tho cvldenco to tho court at tho present time. The ninglstruto held Borkmnn In $500 ball for examination on Fri day afternoon. Ball was furnished. Borkmnn, beforo his arraignment, de nied that anarchists had anything to do with tho bomb throwing. Comptroller Metz received an un signed letter, in which tho writer de clared that Saturday's bomb throwing "demonstrates tho commencement of a battle between tho city officials and the unemployed," nud that unless Mayor McClcilan nnd the comptroller provide money for now subways so that there will be work to bo done, thoy will suffer death. Selig Sllverstein, in whoso hands tho dynamite bomb prematurely ex ploded as ho was preparing to throw it at tho polico during tho Union squaro demonstration last Saturday, is dying and tho physicians nt Belle vuo hospital stato that tho bomb thrower will not live twenty-four hours.

Mme. Gould Is said also to be in a very nervous condition. Sho went to tho St. Regis after a confer ence with her brothers nnd sister at the homo of Miss Helen Gould, whero Mme. Gould had been staying slnco her arrival from France. Sinco arriving in New York Mme. Gould has met the Princo do Sagan several times in company with Mr. and Mrs. Morse, and there has been much discussion of the possibility of an announcement that sljo hat becomo engaged to marry tho prince. S'mo of the members of the Gould family are reported to bo opposed to such an engagement. After announcing that ho would Eoon depart for France and that Mmo. Gould would return to Paris when her healUi permitted, Prince do Sagan as sorted at the Waldorf-Astoria that Alme. Gould had engaged Coudert Brothers as personal counsel to look after her interests in the fortune of Jay Gould.

For tho first time, too, the Princo de Sagan declared himself a formal suitor for the hand of Mmo. Gould. MINORITY SCORES A VICTORY Bills for Reinstatement of Negro Sol diers Will Be Adversely Reported. Washington, April 1. The five Dem ocratic members of tho senate com mittee on military affairs succeeded In defeating both tho Warner and For aker bills for the restoration to duty of negro soldiers of the Twenty-fifth Infantry, who wero discharged without honor because of tho affray at Browns ville, Tex. Tho success of the minor ity was accomplished by voting as a unit against the divided majority. The effect will be to cause both bills to bo reported adversely. A majority vote of tho senate would enact ono of the bills, however, and Senator Warner is hopeful that his measure will yet became law. Tho essential point of difference be tween the two bills is that the War ner measure provides that the presi dent may reinstate any soldier upon becoming satisfied that he Is innocent of tho charge against him; while the Foraker bill compels the reinstate ment of such soldiers if they take oath of their innocence.
