The English newspapers and our

home torieg censure the plan of a com
mission to ascertain aud decide ex
parte the boundary of Venezuela, aud
ay that it would not be binding on
Great Britain, because Great Britain
has not agreed to accept the decision
when it shall be made. The Sehom
burg line was drawn by a British
agent, without notice to Venezuela, j
and was adopted without asking Vents j
Etiela's assent. It is not binding on j
Venezuela any more than a, line drawn '
by a Cut ted States commission would
be binding on Great Britain.

Kdward Atkinson, president of the

Company, looks with dltd'aw-r
on the steel skeleton buildings, main
tninliig that when exposed to a lug;,
heat either from within or from with
out they would tear themselves to
pieces to the great danger of the sur
rounding property, and also to the peril
of the tirenieu who attempted to control
the tire. During the period of the ur'

Atkinson tayg in a recent rrt to bis

prefers the mill construction, and
comlucting experiments with the view
to securing the best means of protec
tion to wotidon surfaces, especially at
the incbptlou of a tire, thus preventing
the flames getting under much head
way before the lire department arrive.!.
The first rule laid down for avoidlus
the rapid spread of lire on wooden sur
faces is to forbid absolutely the smear
ing over of these surfaces with any of
the ordinary types of combustible var
nish. Mr. Atkinson is now investigat
lug the recent tires In Chicago with a
view to gathering further Information
on the subject of the Influence of Are
n uctural steel. As none of the

remain open as to whether great "sky

down from the effects of fire.

Ever since Ol ihouu w ts tir 4t ojmrie l
to se'tlemeut there lias been n intense
rivalry between the d.flerent towns.
Cotigreps provided that th first leg
islature of Oklahoma should meet at
Guthm and fix the territorial capitis.
Then began a light of the bitterest
kind between the different towns. Ie?
ialatures voted the capital three times
to Oklahoma City and once to King
fisher, but Governor Steele vetoed it
every tia.e, and the capita! remains at
Guthrie.
The locality of the future capital of
t)V.!otn!i, as a state, will depend
largely on the boundary lines of the
new state, f a state is made of Okla
homa with its present boundaries,
Kinglisle-r or Kl Ueno would be near
the center, and would stand better
chance for the capital than either
Perry, Guthrie or Oklahoma City, on
the t-x'reme eastern edge of the
state, j
So kingfisher and LI Iteno favor im.

Ps prent Isjuiidaries, and the Perry,
Outline and Oklahoma City people aie
against it. When the body met yes
terday the war waa open over the se

Last night the delegates resolved
themselves into a mob and adjourmd

Dkxvkk, Colo., Jan. U The s'ory
that the bond syndicate has secured
control of the gold output of Colorado
is most indelinite. Gold obtained by
sin cine and from stiitnp tmlis is sold
to the branch mint in this city. The
go'd-bearing ores are sold to the smel
ters, ho in turn sell the bullion pro
dm-ts to the Philadelphia mint or to the
brokers and refiners In several cities of
the east. One smelter of Denver has
contracted to deliver its gold bullion in
Ch eago to an Aurora, III., refiner a
tt mint price; another sellB at a slight
premium to a New York city refiner; a
third ships its product to New Orleans.
The gold, after refining, is sold on the
daily market. It is impossible to con
tract a delivery of gold in advance of
smelter treatment, as it is not a fixed
quantity in an ore shipment, nor can
the smelter managers in advance cal
culate upon their receipts. A smelter
manager here stated yesterday that it
is not impossible nor epec-nlly difficult
for at-yndicate to buy up all the gold
in the daily offering.

About noon yesterday Lieut. J. A.
Swift of Ft. Kobinsou shot himself
through the heart with a 'AH C ilt's re
Tolver, dying almost instantly. The
cause was a shortage in his accounts as
manager of the poit exchange and can

quarterly examination noticed sus
picion aud therefore are making a
thorough Investigation, and it is
thought he will bt about 1,000 shorj.
It is ch-irged, but prool ia lacking,
that Mts Agnes Mullen of Chadron,
who was head bookkeeper, left with
about .7XX) cash, ishe lett January 1

be found. Other cierks claim they saw
her have a large amount of money.
The books show about 62,000 cash on

Lieutenant Swift leaves a wife and
eleven children. It is thought by some
that his salary was not sufficient to
meet his expenditures and that he used
this money to pay his debts. He was
about fifty ymrs of age, extremely
generous and very kind aud loving to
his family. Tbs exchange is now
closed. The Indebtedness to wholesale
