uas the purpose of the board to make public Dr. White report and Its notice to the public Mr. Davis saM there should be no privacy about any of these acts. Mr. Davis asked Ir. White If he would add to his report what he had found from culture of tap water. Dr. White at first Faid hr would not say. Mr. Davis insisted that it wiiü due the water company to know if any of the cultures of water taken from city taps had shown infection. Dr. White answered that twice water taken from the tap in his home. No. 1303 North New Jersey street, had phown infection conforming to colon bacilli. A sample taken from the tap in the house of Dr. George D. Kahlo, a member of the board, fhowed probable infection of the same character, but of this he would not eay positively that it was infected. The cultures from other taps did not show infection. Dr. White .wan asked If he found Infection in cultures taken from the center of the large reservoir. He said he did, and also at the west end." Dr. White exhibited a tube containing developed colon bacilli.. It was a pure culture. Mr. Davis asked him if he had only one test. Dr. White took from a holder other turxs showing that from the same samples the bacilli were shown developed on a potato. In milk, the Ras test In gelatine. the gas test in solution and the indoll, or color test, each of which he said verified the presence of infection. WATER FROM: THE WELLS. Then followed a discussion aa to the relationship of thii galleries' at the north pumping station. Mr. Davl3 said tha wells supplied enough water to last the city forty-eight hours In case of a great conflagration, and after that period the company had the right to use Its connections with White river. . . Many questions were directed at Mr. Davis to ascertain the probability of the contamination -of the water reservoirs or galleries by river water. There are three galleries. Two are connected by a twelve-foot openin?. The smaller one receives its supply from two wells. It was shown by plates exhibited by Dr. White that the water in this well and White river was similar; also that the water from the smaller of the two galleries was similar. Mr. Davis claimed that the tMrrt füllirv which he said is only Fix

feet wid and contains storage' for emer-' gencies in case of Are, Teceives its supply; from the river, but this supply ls filtered through gravel, sand and charcoal. In response to questions, - Mr. Davis admitted that in time of high water it was possible for the river water to percolate through' to the double gallery, or to overflow the well supplying the mall gallery, lie said the analyses made constantly showed that this- never occurred. He also nald it was not likely that the safety gate between the third, or. emergency, gallery, end the' main reservoir would be inadvertently open and thus contaminate the city's supply. He also eald the well supply would yield thirty to forty million gallons dailj, an adequate supply for the city. During the discussion Dr. White explained in technical language the contents of reveral tubes. These were the different tests' for the isolation of colonies of colon bacilli and their development. He showed them In progress of development. He and Mr. Davis exchanged comments about the WEATHER FORECAST. Showers and Cooler, Except Fair In Northwestern Indiana. WASHINGTON. April 2.

tests. Dr. White said hli several different tests had determined positively the- presence of infection. He said all the details would be covA?rod In a later report. "I believe." said Mayor Bookwalter, "that the board has done its duty and performed its work under the contract. We have employed our expert and he has done his work. It la now up to you. Mr. Davis, to proceed with your duty under the contract by appointing your own expert and submitting his conclusion." NOTICE UNDER THE CONTRACT. "Do I understand that it is now agreed that we shall proceed under the contract, and that this is notice to that effect?" The mayor said it was, and to make It more certain he dictated a formal notice to the directors of the water company informing them that Dr. White was appointed by the board under Its contract and that the company was expected to do the same. During the discussion It developed, from what Mr. Davis said, that the thirty-slx-inch pipe entering the river at Washington street, and which is required under the contract In case of a great fire, is useless. He said no water could be taken in, as the river silt had packed about the Intake and prevented suction. The only reservoir was the one kept at the north pumping station. Last night Mr. Davis said the water company would resist the analysis of Dr. White on the grounds that it was not in accordance with the contract and also that Dr. White's report is not on the water supplied to citizens of Indianapolis, but a report upon water not at this time connected with the city's water supply. He explained that Dr. White's three samples were taken from the safety gate, which he says is never open, from the mouth of the covered gallery, which is not near to the source of direct supply and from the portion of the gallery not near the suction pipes. Mr. Davis said the suction for the city supply was so placed that it drew, on the product of twenty-five driven wells which flowed into the suction region. ACTION OF VENEZUELANS

CASTRO : AUTHORIZED DY CONGRESS TO FULFILL OBLIGATIONS, Dot the Protocols Will Not. De Given Legal Sanction, In Order to Avoid Establishing a Precedent. CARACAS, Tuesday, March SI. Congress, in a secret meeting, has authorized Castro to fulfill the obligations embodied In the British, German and Italian protocols, but only as an extraordinary act, without giving them legal sanction, so as not to establish a precedent. The resolutions adopted by Congress, and which are still unknown to the Venezuelan public, follow: "The Congress of Venezuela, considering that the protocols settled at Washington, Feb. . 13,- by ..the representatives of Venezuela and those of Germany. Great Britain and Italy, were agreed upon and subscribed to in the midst of a period during which force was exercised upon the republic in a manner as unforeseen as it was unnatural, and that such documents cannot, therefore, be considered In the form established for diplomatic negotiations which are regularly Initiated, pursued and terminated; therefore, it is "Resolved, To rescind, with respect to the said protocols, from the constitutional consequences relative to diplomatic treaties and to limit its action with respect to the said protocols to authorizing the federal executive to put them into execution, without any of their clauses establishing the least precedent in the life of the Venezuelan nation. The Congress of Venezuela, considering that the interpretation given in the protocols signed with Italy on Feb. 14 to the treaty bf June 13, 1851, and the amplification or modification of some of its clauses render Impossible the continued existence of this treaty, ?lnc9 such action ia In flagrant contradiction to some of it3 original stipulations, and with the principles, which, by virtue of the treaty, have been mutually observed by both parties. "Resolved, To call on the federal executive to exercise with the shortest possible delay the power contained in Artlcl- 27 of the sa id treaty, with respect to its denunciation." Congress then adjourned as a protest of indignant patriotism against the protocols. The Senate to-day voted to authorize the government to contract one or more loans, specially devoted to the conversion of Venezuela's Internal and external debts. PROTOCOLS ARE READY. Britain and Germany Ready to Resume Venesnelan Xesotlatlons. WASHINGTON, April 2.-The British ambassador, Sir Michael Herbert, has received his final instructions as to the amendments to be offered to the Venezue lan protocol .s presented by Mr. Bowen and is ' prepared to resume negotiations, probably to-morrow. The natura of the changes which the British government proposes has not been stated. It Is understood the instructions to Baron Von Sternberg, the German minister, will bo identical with that prepared In London. In addition to Wayne MacVeagh, who will be the chief counsel for the United States and the other peace powers at The Hague, it is said to be the present intention of the Washington authorities that he shall be assisted by Mr. Bowen, who will continue to act in his capacity as Venezuela's plenipotentiary, and probably by Mr. Penfield, solicitor for the State Department, who conducted with such success the caso,of the United States in the Pius fund arbitration last year. Mr. Bowen. Venesuela's plenipotentiary, to-day signed with Senor OJeda, the Spanish minister, the Venezuelan Spanish protocol providing for tha adjustment of the Spanish claims by a Joint commission at Caracas. The President of Mexico, it is provided, shall select the umpire in case of the failure of the commission to agree. William E. Balnbridge, of Iowa, formerly second secretary of legation at Peking, has been selected as the representative of the United States on the American-Venezuelan commission, which will meet at Caracas to adjust the claims of this country against Venezuela.'. Mr. Balnbridge waa at Peking throughout the siege APRIL SNOWSTORM. It Has Caused Many Slides and Ob tmcted Itnlluar Traffic. DENVER,' Col., April 2. A snowstorm, which began this morning, has t?en general over Colorado. Many snow ar.d landslides have occurred in the mountains, doing much damage to railroad and mining properties. A Denver. & Rio Grande passenger train ran into a rocksllde in Brown's canyon tonight and the locomotive and the baggage car were derailed. The Colorado & Southern's Gunnison line is blocked by several snowslldes and the Alpine tunnel is closed. The Denver & Rio Grande passenger train from Denver, due in Durango last night, was stopped at Pagosa Junction by a washout a quarter of a mile long. The passen gers and malls were transferred this morn ing and - reached Durango to-night. Another train is stuck in the snow at Cumbres pass. The Rio Grande Southern is blockaded by snowslldes In the vicinity of Ophir. No trains have been run over that part of the line ror two oays. Severe Hailstorm. LA CROSSE. Wis., April 2. The most severe hailitorm experienced in the city for maay yeara last night caused great damage to all greenhouses and conserva torles in the city. Hundreds of panes of glass were broken by the hailstones, which were an incn in uiameter. Jones's Golden Rule Police. Toledo Bee. . If Mayor Jones should happen to be elected and appoint a Board of Public Safe ty like that pet workhouse board of his no police Judge will be necessary. Nobody will be arrested. The theory is that the fewer arrests a .policeman makes the better ha stands wlt.i the mayor. Working out that theory to Its conclusion, a policeman that can twirl his cane and never make an arrest would be a cracker Jack. Notice we say a policeman that." We didn't say "a policeman who."

To-day's game will be interesting, and, while the New Yorks have been practicing for about three weeks, the Indianapolis aggregation hopes to carry off a victory. Manager Watkins will place a team In the field against New York that, has a good chance of winning, and which will probably be the team, with one or two exceptions, that will represent Indianapolis in the American Association. Manager Watkins gave the regular men good practice yesterday and he was much enthused with his team when the men quit work late in the afternoon. Coulter was in center and "Cy" shows little effects of his fight with the measles. O'Brien was at short and he was In good shape.

O'Brien, s. . Tamsett, 3. Drury. c Kennedy or Ham ilton, p. With the exception of the catcher and possibly the pitchers, the Indianapolis team will line up to-day as it will for the regular championship games.

Story of One Standard Oil Dividend. Mrs. Tarbell, In April McClure. Immediately after the Pensylvanla Railroad and the Standard Oil Company Joined battle in the spring of 1S77 troubles of most serious Import came upon the Pennsylvania road. A great and general strike on all Its branches tied up its traffic for weeks. In Pittsburg hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of property was destroyed by a mob and railroad employes. It Is not too much to say. that in these troubles the Pennsylvania lost millions of dollars; it is certain that as a result of them the company that fall and the coming spring had to pass its dividends for the first time since it commenced paying them, and that its stock fell to $27 a share (par being $00.) Overwhelmed by the disasters. Mr. Scott and Mr. Cassatt felt that they could not afford any longer to sustain the Empire in its fight for the right to refine as well as transport oil. While the coffers of the Pennsylvania were empty those of the Standard were literally bursting with profits; for the Standard, the winter before this fight came on. had carried to completion for the first time the work which It had been organized to accomplish, that i?, It had put up the price of refined oil. in defiance of all laws of supply and demand, and held it up for nearly six months. In the winter of ls7-77 millions of gallons of oil were sold by Mr. Rockefeller and his partners at a profit of from 15 to 23 cents a gallon. The curious can computo the profits; It certainly ran Into multi-millions. A dividend of 50 per cent, was paid for the year following the scoop, and "there was plenty, of money made to throw that dividend out' twice over and make a profit." Samuel Andrews, one of the Standard's stockholders, told' an Ohio Investigating cornmlttee in 1S?J. The 8tandard then had a war budget big enough for any opposition, and it Is not to be wondered at that the Pennsylvania, knowing this and finding its own treasury depleted, was ready to quit.
