Nov. 17.-In hl consid rstlon of th whols general question of the relations between America and Venezuela, with special reference to the presentation of claims of American citlens against the government of Vaneiuela which were not adjusted by the Venesuela arbitration tri bunals, Secretary Root has reached ' the CrltchHeld claim and today he devoted sev eral hours to the subject. George Washington Crltchfleld. the origi nal promoter; R. 8. Rockey, president of the United States and Venexuela company, Md R. Floyd Clarke, attorney for the cor poration, appeared at the State depart ment and explained fo Secretary Root at great length the details of the case. From their nsrratlve It appeared that several - i i . . . 13) a m n It was awarded the Grand Frlxe at the 8u Louis W orld's Fair over all other makes. Every claim for excellence and superiority was allowed, con Mimed and rewarded. It Is one-half the price of foreign make as there la bo duty or ship freight tu pay on Cook's imperial. SERVED EVER? WHERE iNCUCAH VIMS CI. tV. 10U1S years ago, when Castro vai dictator of Vencsuela, Crltchfleld purchased an as phalt mine In the interior. It was neces sary In order to market the asphalt that a tramway ba constructed to the coast. Crltchfleld secured from Castro formal per mission for the construction of this tram way and also the right to export ,the as phalt free of any export duty. About a year and a half ago, the company asserts the Venezuelan? government, in violation of this contract, began to impose export duties on the asphalt and Increased the tax to a point that made It Impossible to operate the mine profitably. Consequently, after vainly appealing to President Castro to adhere to his original agreement, the United States and Venesuela company, which operated the mine and the railroad, went out of business, closed up the works and appealed to the State department for redress. Secretary Root listened with much in terest to the presentation of - this case, which he will make the basis of freah and strong Instructions to Minister Russell. Dlaaer at White House. President and Mra. Roosevelt entertained a distinguished company at dinner at the White House tonight, which was followed by the first muElcale of the season, at which several hundred guests were pres ent.

Secretary Wilson of the Uepartruent of agriculture today emphasised the neces sity of a national pure food law In an ad dress before the annual- convention of of ficial chemists in seeslun here. He compli mented the chemists on their accomplish ment In abolishing food adulteration. While there are a few people, he said, who do not want to know that what they eat Is pure, and who uiay be importuning con gress not to pass a pure food law, tlte sec retary told the chemists he was sure the great majority of the American people were heartily In favor of the purity of the market basket. taa Mosey Tra4 la.

BIG NEST OF YOUNG BIRDS Tvro-8coro Kledffllags Netted Three Hundred Eagles at tha Aerte. by Initiation of a class of two-score men at tracted a crowd of about WO members to the hall of Omaha aerie No. 88, Fraternal Order of Eagle.1. Thursday evening. Pres ident Christie and Captain Snoop of the degree team conducted the ceremonies with a vim and celerity that was a revelation to' the Eagles In attendance, many of whom were from Beatrice, Council Bluffs, Benson, South Omaha and some even from South Dakota. One brother, who la an army officer at Fort Meade, came up to get pointers on how an Eagle initiation should be conducted and he eapressed ad miration to President Christie after the work was done. "It beats even an Indian corn dance," said the officer. After the initiation a aocial session was indulged In, with a fine program, under the direction of Captain Henry Dunn. This was suspended with the program un finished when announcement was made of the death of Michael Ford, father of Dr. M. J. Ford, formerly aerie physician. Be fore the suspeusloB several numbers had been put on. Mattern ' and Zimmerman rendered nuntcal selections on the guitar and mandolin, and tha drill team of camp 130, Modern Woodmen of America, went through a series of evolutions that won un stinted applause. What was to have been a four-round boxing match between Camp bell, a white boy, and Cartwrlght, a col ored tad, ended quickly. The latter get tired before the end of the first three minutes. Morgan and Holden. two clever wrestlers, gave a fine exhibition of the sport, each man winning a fall. While this match was In progress the session ad journed. Fagle politics Is beginning to stir with considerable force. Tha nomination and election of officers for the ensuing year la to occur December T and the contest prom ises to be In lUe nature of a free-for-all. President Dave Christie's friends are urg ing him for re-election because of tha good work he has done during his term, and it Is understood there ere several other aspirants in training. The same la true of all the other office, except secretary, for which Dan Cunon will probably have no opposition. The membership la growing to such an extent that all tha members feel deeply Interested in the result of the com ing contest. JAP . PLANS FOR Iftrquii It Laji Ootliae f Schema Before the Hikaao.1 IT fROVIIES FH A PROTECTORATE Hermit Klncdons to Lose Its Auton omy as Far as Foreign Re lations Are Con cerned. SEOUL, Corea, Nov. 17.-Harquis Ito, in a four hours' audience with the emperor yesterday, submitted the Japanese program for a protectorate over Corca. It provides for the political status of Japanese resi dents of Corea, open ports and the turning over of the management of Corea's foreign relatione to Japan. Today tho emperor laid the Japanese scheme before the cabinet. It Is stated that If the Japanese proposal is not ac cepted complications will follow and that the Corean government will eventually be obliged to submit. The emperor and the court are not yet willing to recognise the loss of independence. Local Japanese express surprise that the Corcans should desire to retain autonomy when the benefits of Japanese domination are apparent.

SAND IS DIFFICULT T0 GET Material Comes Slowly nnd Therefore Loral Contractors Encounter Serious Delay. Contractors are not getting sand as rap Idly as they desire It and consequently a complaint has been made to the railroads for better service. It Is claimed the supply is so short and the sand is being shipped In so slowly It Is ossible the building and street work now going on will be seriously retarded. It is understood the Missouri Pacific, which handles most of the sand, has stopped entirely furnishing cars, but Instead Is sending all of Its available cars to the coal mines. The Union Pacific and Burlington are still hauling some sand, but a large number of their available supply of cars Is being used to haul corn and the sand cars are necessarily short. The com plaint, it Is said, is general among the contractors. i boulevnrd. boy; II. C. Rann, 2215 Webster, girl: William Stewart. 1215 South Four teenth, girl; M. C.
