There has bcn no further bombardment of the fort at San Carlos. The Pan ther still lies outside the entrance ! to the gulf, and is maintaining the blockade. Particulars of the bombardment of San Carlos by Coast files add a few details. At the time no rea son for the bombardment was ap parent as the, Panther began firing as soon as the guns were brought to bear, and the impression was that this was part of the program to reduce the fort before Mr. Bow en reached Washington. Gen Bello, who was in command of the fort, had only two guns, but in the first action landed on the Panther twice. The fort is twenty miles from MaracaiLo at the entrance to the gulf an,d the blockade station is twenty miles further away. None of the files tell of any allegation that mails were delayed as the first cause of the bombardment. Denver, Colo., Jan. 25. Former Senator Kdward O.

A portion of the crew are ashore but the re mainder of the crew and passengers are unable to land. The reports of the disaster arc meager.

The Welsh coast is some distance south of Holyhead. New Orleans, La., Jan. 26.

Thf 'Affair Cnuics UiiPiislness nt I 1 Wnslilnirtoii. New York, Jan. 19. A cable to the Herald from Maracaibo, Vene zuela, says: The German attack on the San Carlos fort at Maracaibo was premeditated. On the morn ing of January 17th the German gunboat Panther sent three boat loads of men to rcconnoiterthc fort. The Panther forced an entrance at noon and attacked immediately. The 'fort replied and fired 117 shots. Several of them hit the mark, for the Panther turned about and re passed the bar at 6 o'clock in the evening. She again took up her position on the blockade, twenty miles from the fort. During the attack four Venezuelans were bad ly wounded and ten slightly. The fort was little damaged. The reports of the German gun boat at the time of the engagement was trying to force the entrance of the. lake in order to capture the Vevczuelan gunboat Miranda, which is in hiding there, are gene rally believed here. The Venezue lan Government has given out a statement to this effect. Maracaibo (Venezuela), Jan. 19. There is no communication be tween Maracaibo and the fort of Sau Carlos, which was sh .'lied on Saturday by the German cruiser Panther and which returned the fire, with the result that the war ship retreated in the direction of Curacao. Berlin, Jan. 19. The Navy De partment has not received any offi cial advices regarding the bombard ment of Fort San Carlos, at the en trance to Lake Maracaibo, by the German cruiser Panther on Satur day, and is unable to either confirm or deny the press dispatches. TheJ officials say, however, assuming that something in the way of a bombardment took place, no orders were sent from Berlin. Whatever was done was the result of the ini tiativeof thecommauder on the spot, in whose discretion the conduct of the blockade was left. Mitchell Require HoihIh. Washington, Jan. 20.

The Count was thrown out of Le Chamber of Deputies on No- vemuer 7111 011 ennrges uiai ue nau been guilty of irregularities, by buying the election and practicing charity for election purposes. Annie Gould's husband now de clares that the new election has vindicated him. He proposes to make things lively for Deputy Unfile Chauviu and others who bit terly opposed his election. -A A Tourist (Joes Into Kcstncy Charms. "Neither California nor 1; lorida i waii," jj is in it for a minute with Haw said John Uweu, ot l.olonuto, a wealthy mine owner whose home is at Idaho Springs, on the slopes of the Rockies. Mr. Owen, who is largely interested iu the mines at Cripple Creek and all the region around about there, has traveled extensively on the mainland of the United States, and has found at last the perfect resting place from the cares of business which he has sought for a long time. "Why this place," he said, "is absolutely perfection. There is nothing like it anywhere, that I have seen. I cannot understand why more is not done to attract tourist travel. There is every, pos sible attraction, in climate and scenery to draw travel. It is dif ferent from anything on the main Isnd, and charmingly different. Even the s'tcamer trip is an added attraction, for it rests a man and the air of the sea is a life-giving air. And then, when you get there, when you find this soft, delightful atmosphere and this wealth of tropi cal trees and flowers and this pleas ant, hospitable people iu a laud far removed from the hurry and bustle of business, when the busy man finds that he can get away from his cares so far that it will hardly pay to call them back by wire and when letters cannot reach him every two or three hours, assuredly he can find 110 spot in which he can rest better, building himself up for a renewal of the struggle. v-ertatmy mere snotiiu ic a great future for this place, if only as a resort for tourists. The more I see of it, the more I am charmed with it, and I assure you it, is the place for my money, hereafter. I intend, moreover, to tell my friends about it when I go home. The trouble with Hawaii, it seems to me, is that there is a lack of accu rate information abroad concerning its climate and its attractions as a resort. The peculiar charm of the place has not been made known. When that is better understood, I think a large share of the tourist travel must come this way." Rynu to the Rescue. Mountain Virw, Jan. 20, 1903. Editor Triiiunm: You ought to publish the enclosed clipping, that Sheriff Andrews may see the desirability of procuring the stat utes and court decisions from Pago Pago. (The clipping was too long). Thus armed with authorities he j can stand off the legal talent of j Hilo. I like to see fair play and 1 not let the whole town jump on one man. , Upon examination, lawyer Ross will find that the sections of the criminal laws of Hawaii relating to a person "hauled up" to give bonds to keep the peace, must prove that he is innocent or be incarcerated in Andrews Bastile. I know how it is, I was there myself. Yours truly, F. J. RYAN. San Francisco, Jan. 26.

Cooper was yesterday unanimously elected by the Board of Health to succeed President Sloggett. The choice was a matter of considerable surprise ds it was supposed that the mantle would fall upon the shoul ders of Dr. Moore. Just prior to tne meeting, However, tue com bined efforts of the remaining mem bers of the Board compelled Dr. Cooper to consider his declination and after much argument he agreed to accept. At the opening of the meeting K. A. Mott-Smith took the chair, and Dr. Moore placed the name of Dr. Cooper in nomination. It was immediately seconded by . Mr. Robertson and the vote was by acclamation. Upon taking his office Dr. Cooper said that he accepted the position only under pressure and that tak ing only selfish reasons into con sideration he could not take it. "The last Board had a great crisis to face for two years, and while I do not wish to throw bou quets at ourselves, I think we can safely congratulate ourselves that commerce has not been obstructed and the internal welfare of the country has not been threatened. "It will be my policy to continue on the same lines laid out by my predecessor and I thank you for the confidence reposed in me. I wished to remain only a member of the Board and would have liked to see Dr. Moore accept the honor. It will be no easy matter to make the record of my predecessor." Attorney General Dole then arose and stated that as it would probably be his last meeting, he wished to express his appreciation, of the cordial good will and fellowship which had always existed between them. He referred to the criticism in the press of the President two years ago and said that he had been sub jected to the same sort of criticism j from a portion of the press. He I said he had tried to do what was j right and that if a man was unjustly 1 censured he would stand for what I he was worth at the end. He re ferred also to causes of a personal nature which had made the past year one of disappointment and it uny have affected his work, but said that he had always tried to be a fearless, conscientious public ser vant.
