I . WITH A FAST YACHT.
H
m MiniBter Bolet Saya Ho Will
B Pursue the South Portland.
M The Catherine Whiting, He Admits,
H Is Too Slow.
H He Expect to Gat Awy Within
H Forty-eight Houn.
MVA A fast steam yacht, Instead or tho steamor
H Catherine Whiting, will be bent In pursuit nf
H the South Portland, which succeeded In se.
H curios her clearance papers ) esterday and
H galled for Port ot Spain, Trlnlaad.
H Venezuelan Minister Bolet hlmselt said so
H this morning. Ue was seen at his home, 3,17
KV Third street, Brooklyn, by an Etkniku
B World reporter, to whom he said:
VJ " Our contract with tho Whiting was not
formally closed and we shall not use her. la
Pfl the first place, she does not possess the neces-
a ary speed and could not overhaul the South
B Portland.
P " But then we hare another and a better
,H vessel, one that Is especially suited for our
H purpose. It Is a steam yacht, which the
owner has placed'at our disposal, nnd he Is so
m much Interested In the matter that ho means
H to accompany us when wa start after tho
H South Portland."
BL " When will that be?" ho wai asked.
B " Wall, not before Saturday. Wo shall
H hate to fit Her with guns and supply plenty
H of ammunition. I hare not purchased any yet,
H but am negotiating.
H "This yacht Is three-masted and her tonnago
H la registered at 1,000. I cannot give you tho
H name of the yacht as the owner has enjoined
H secrecy upon me and said that publicity of
H His name now would seriously Interfere with
H. his business."
H' M The Impression has got abroad that your
H refusal to take the Whiting was due to lack
H of funds, ' suggested the reporter.
i I' Oh, no! we have plenty of money. Only
"Jl3" ,. j., recently I received aoo.ooo from my Govern.
H ' menu The Whiting Is too old. She would
H not do at all.
H " This yacht Just suits us and we will start
H la forty-eight houn. That la, my son Carlos
H and some of our mends Uko a en. Carlos Cus-
H tro, our former conjul-aeneral to Liverpool,
H will go.
H '' When we conclude what size guns wo
H Shall place aboard the yacht the start will be
H miae. Of course we shall do nothing In tho
H way of fighting until we get In Venezuelan
H waters. I do not proposo It I can help It to
H permit the South Portland to land those
H , munitions of nar. We know theyaroln-
tended tor the rebels and they are to bo used
M against our Government.
M " We shall use foico to prevent such action,
M an I lullr expect there will be . iron the
H water, lueysaylhe South Portland Is not
E fitted to do any aghtlng. Why, she has Gat-
H ling gubs aboard, and what can to easier than
M , to dlscfaargb them from her deck:
H ' 1 fully expect to overhaul the South Port.
iH land, even though she hai this great lead on
H us. If we get away Saturday 1 think by
H Tuesday or Wednesday our yacht will be In
i M sight of the Portland.
H " She can make only el ht knots an hour,
iH while I am assured that thlsj acht can mako
'H eights, n per hour.
H "I hae not made any application for
, clearance papers tor the yacht. Tho captain
B can do tutu In a few hours' time."
B "Some reflections ha a beon cast on Vene-
H zuela's navy, It btln; said that the Whiting
H alone constituted tnu nuvy."
H "It Is untrue. We havo five merchnnt ves-
ieli which ne uo as crulsen. 'Ilieru are
B troops on all or them, but tho vessels arc not
KVAVJ all aimed, ibiy urc tno l'araro, Llbcrtador,

FIREBUGS FOR PAY.
A Gang of Alleged Oonspirators
Lodged in Jail.
Offered to Burn a Man's Store for
$100 in Advance.
Supposed Origin of Many Kecen
BIysterlous Fires.
A sensation was caused to-day In Williams
burg by the disclosure of a dollbcrato con
piracy on tho part of a gangot Poles and
Russians to burn buildings and collect a part
or tho Insurance trom the owners.
Threoorthogang, Moms Scongerholtr, or
140 tssex street, New York; Joseph Cohen,
or lfiu Boorum street, Brooklyn, and Charles
Solomon, or fil)3 Broadway, Williamsburg,
have been arrested. It is Bald that they have
been operating lor some tlmo both In New
Yor and Brooklyn, and tnat they havo es
tablished a regular ilrebug organization.
They wero to be arraigned this morning In
Justice Goettlng's courr, but owing to tho
absence or the magistrate the hearing has
been postponed lor a week.
The evidence against the alleged firebugs Is
furnished by Ilyman I). Buegelelsen, a repu
table dealer In aewlngmachlnesat503 Broad
way, Williamsburg, with whom the conspira
tors attempted to enter Into a contract to
bura his premises upon the payment to them
of aioo.
Mr. Iluegelelsen's affidavit states that In
June last Joseph Cohen came to his store to
buy a sewing macnlne. lie was told that ho
could not get one except for cash, whereupon
Cohen unfolded the plan by which ho ex.
pected to get some money inside or a mocth
by knowing a party who was going to have a
fire.
Cohen told Buegelelsen that there was an
organized band engaged In the firebug busi
ness, and made an offer to burn down bis
store for him It lie would pay 1100 lor the
Job. lie advised Buegelelsen to get his place
Insured at once, and said bo would Introduce
him to the leader or the gang.
Buegelelsen says that he at once reported
the matter to tho Fire Marshal, who told him
to go ahead ana get evidence against the
gang.
Accordingly, when Cohen next met him by
appointment at bis store, he brought Charles
Solomon with him, and arrangements were
begun to setnre to Buegelclsen's property.
Tho two men told Buegelelsen that the
man who would do the Job was Morris Scon
gerholtr, or no Kssex street, New York, a
grocer, who had much experience In the busl.
ness and had managed several successrul fires
In his own place.
Some days afterwards Solomon and Cohen
took Buegelelseu over to see Scongerholtz,
and they had a conference at 140 Essex
street. Tho threo men Insisted that Buegel
elsen should pay them tho $100 In advance,
but ho hesitated, and they made all sorts or
propositions, offering to take part In advanco
and the rest when everything was ready to
touch off.
Alter this, Buegelelsen slid, Cohen and
Solomon called several times at his store and
urged him to pay tho money nnd have the
Job over, but ho kept putting them orr until
Sept. i:i, when ho made an nppolntmeut to
meet them nt his store,
Flro Marshal Lewis was there, representing
hlmseir as a sewlng.machlno man, and heard
much of tho conversation. Buegelelsen
offered to pay S'.Ti down If Solomon would
get his father-in-law to Indorse a note. As
ho would nut secure tho Indorsement, the
money was not paid that day.
Sept. 15 the two men came to the storo In
tho evening and took measurements. They
were to come again Saturday for tho money.
They had previously suggested that Buegel
elsen should bring up his machine oil from
the cellar, so that It would burn more easily.
baturdav neon toiomon c.uno to Bucgel
clrcn s house and told blm that Cohen and
Scongerlioltr wero at tho stom walling tor
tho moncj. He teutons ot his workmen to
notlty tho polite nnd then went over. Sron.
gciholtz was making some experiments, hav
lm; a mixture ot bcnrlno and machine oil on
the Moor, when the police with L'apt. Knnts
came In und m rested the trio. They havo
been prisoners ever since, and tho charge
I against them Is conspiracy and attempted
arson.
'Ihcpollco are still Investigating the case,
but they bellovo that they have secured tho
ringleaders ot a gang which has btcn operat
ing successfully In New York as well as
Brooklyn. 'Iherehavo been sou'ial mysteri
ous tires In Williamsburg, which have always
been regarded with suspicion, but no evi
dence against tho owners or occupants or the
premises could be secured.

"Ho I havo heard," remarked Mr. Daven
port, " but I haven't read tho speech." .
" It will pay you to get It nnd read it care
fully," said ltldgway. " Possibly It may lead
to your relormntlon."
Mr. Davenport smiled grimly. " 11111 claims
tho honor," he said, or making tho discovery
that 1 was the author or the Force bill. Why, ,
that charge was made In thedobato on tho
bill In the House and was prlnttd In the
Coiifi'Mifonnl .Vrunl months before Hill

"And you never denied It j"
" No. Why should I j" ansvv ered Mr. Daven
port. "It Is true.
"I will give you notico now, ltldgway,"
Davenport added, " that I shnll cor.tlnuoto

before I die, too."
11 Do you object tn being quoted as saying i
that?" Mr. Davenport nnsaskod. I
"No. I don't believe tn timid llepublleaus. '
I never hesitate to speak my mind freely. I
shall pvss tho Force bill yet j on see It I
don't."

Dr. Waliers prediction then proved welt vjl
