VENEZUELAN FLEET BOMIIARDS THE COLOMBIAN SEAFOIIT. NeiT Invasions from the Surrounding Countries Heavy Purchases of Modern Munitions of "War. WASHINGTON, Sept. 7. The Colombian legation has Just received the following cablegram: "Wiliemstad, Curacao, Sept. ?. Venezuelan ileet is bombarding Rio llacha. "BECEmtA." Dr. Becerra formerly was Colombian minister in Washington. Rio Hacha is an important town on the north coast of Colombia. This bombardment appears to be the first open act of war on the isthmus. The Colombia legation is in receipt of a dispatch from the minister of foreign affairs at Bogota which says that new invasions from Venezuela, Ecuador and Nicaragua are announced. The minister declares that Colombia continues to be pacific and strictly neutral and that Colombia condemns the rebel invasion of Garbires into Venezuela. The Navy Department has ordered the gunboat Machias, now at Colon, to Bocas del Toro to look after American interests in that quarter should it appear that any such are in need of protection. The battleship Iowa has arrived at Panama. The gunboat Ranger, now at that place, has been ordered back to San Francisco. Dr. Beccerra at present Is at Wiliemstad, near the scene of operations, looking after the interest of his government. Tho bombardment is regarded by the Colombian authorities as an unmistakable and open act of war. Rio Hacha Is so located as to command the peninsula west oT the Gulf of Maracaibo. Sovereignty over the peninsula has long been in question, but the Queen Regent of Spain awarded it to Colombia as a result of an arbitration three years ago and this has been accepted by both countries. The information reaching the Colombian legation shows that the Venezuelan fleet expected to make a juncture at Rio Hacha with a considerable force of Colombian rebels; but this force was dispersed and the town was strongly garrisoned by government troops. RIFLES AND AMMUNITION. Purebiised by Colombia iu Purls in Large Quantities. NEW YORK, Sept. 7. Senor Arture de Brlgard, consul general of Colombia, in this city, was advised from Paris to-day that the Colombian government had just purchased 23,000 Mauser rifles and 5,000,000 cartridges. This is the largest purchase of war material by a South American Republic in several years and has caused the impression that Colombia Is, tho Tribune will say to-morrow, preparing for a war with her enemies, Venezuela and Ecuador. Consul General Brigard explained that these munitions are to be used against the rebels in the interior of the country. The government, he said, was determined to put an early end to the insurrection. Will Not Accept 3Iediatlon. WILLEMSTAD, Island of Curacao, Sept. 7. The cable between Curacao and Maracaibo is broken. This is the cause of the absence of news from the Venezuelan frontier, which can be obtained only by letter. Under date of Sept. 3 mail advices say that the Venezuelan troops have not made another attempt to invade Colombia. President Castro absolutely refuses to entertain tho idea of accepting the good offices of the United States. Iloth Cities to Be Attacked. WASHINGTON, Sept. 7. The Colombian legation to-night received tho following telegram from the acting Governor of Panama: "We are expecting simultaneous attacks on Panama and Colon." It is explained at the legation that it is feared the Ecudorian expedition, aided by Nicaraguans, will attack Panama, whiie Venezuela assails Colon. Mediatory Plans Abandoned. CARACAS, Sept. 7 It is understood that the United States legation here will make no further attempt to effect a settlement of the Venezuelan trouble. DIVIDED BY A KOWTOW GERMAN PAPERS HOTLY DISCUSS THE CHINESE 3IISSION. Many Tbink Germany Has "Lost ? Face" Emperor Likes Prince Chun Tariff 3Ieasure Discussion. BERLIN, Sept. 7. The papers this Week have devoted a great deal of space to the Chinese mission headed by Prince Chun. It is characteristic of the secrecy preserved by the government regarding the Basle hitch that nobody knows just what the controversy was about, and tha most divergent views still prevail. The most influential papers, however, admit that Germany managed the matter badly by not having all the questions regarding the ceremonial detail arranged before the mission left China. Even the stoppage at Baslo is Interpreted in various ways by the newspapers. While the general opinion is that Prince Chun stopped there voluntarily, it is also said with great positivcness that orders were sent from Berlin for the mission to wait on the border until all the details of the expiatory act were settled. Some of the papers assert and other deny that the Emperor demanded a modified kowtow, and the latter seems to be the correct version. The Muenchener Allgemeine Zeitung assumes this is true and argues that Germany's yielding will not promote German lntluence in China, since Germany was worsted in the kowtow controversy. The Hanover Courier also admits that it was a great mistake to insist on the kowtow and then abandon the demand. The Kreuz Zeitung denies that Germany yielded anything to the Chinese demands. The Cologne Volks Zeitung finally admits that Germany suffered a humiliation. Nevertheless all the papers agree that the Totsdam ceremony was fully satisfactory to Germany's honor. It is evident that Emperor William will like Prince Chun. People who were present at the ceremony observed this from the manner in which his Majesty treated Prince Chun as the ceremony progressed. While it was given out that Emperor William meant to ignore Prince Chun's presence in Germany after the ceremony was finished, much satisfaction Is felt at the subsequent attentions which the Emperor lias shown him, like lending the Prince his yacht, and his Majesty's invitation to the prince to witness the army maneuvers. The population of Berlin shows much curiosity to gee Prince Chun. Great crowds form in the streets where he Is expected to pass. The prince Is an assldlous sightjeer, employing his time in riding about Berlin. It is said that Prince Chun will

The letter of Emperor Kwang Hsu to Emperor William is described as a work of art in the highest Chlnes style and also as being of extraordinary beauty. It is on a strip of the finest silk, four meters long, folded in an envelope richly ornamented with silk and gold embroidery. xxx The naval maneuvers thii year will be unusually interesting, the chief event being the Czar's visit on Sept. 11. which Emperor William intends to make the warmest expression of his friendly sentiments toward the Czar. Elaborate plans have been made for the Czar's entertainment during his brief stay, but it is not probable that his Majesty will go ashore. xxx As the quarrel between the Agrarians and the manufacturers continues it begins to be seen that it endirr&ers the prospects of the tariff bill. Hence the Tost propo.-es a compromise by Introducing the maximal and minimal system throughout the bill. The Kreuz Zeitung repeats its argument for a trade agreement with the United States ns a mean? of avoiding a tariff war with Gtrmany's European neighbors. Th course of the Kreuz Zeitung excites the wrath of the strong Agrarian organs, which have dubbed It the "foreign attorney." xxx The Sultan of Turkey has ordered that the becrt-t Ftnice regulations of the German army be translated for the use of the Turkish army.
