(Special Gable Despatch to The World.) Venezuela, June sanguinary conflict between Vene' euelans and British is reported in a cable despatch from the Venezuelan Consul at Trinidad to have taken place in the disputed territory of Guiana. The brief despatch says the flght- Jng was at Point Barima, at the mouth of the Orinoco River, but-this is thought to be an error. Officials here say that if there has been a clash it must have been on the Cuyuni River instead at Point Barima.

NEPHEW KING. The Venezuelan at Trinidad, a British Island close to the Orinoco delta, may refer In his alarming message to Caracas to thft incident reported in The World's special -cable despatch from Kingston, printed yesterday. World's Kingston correspondent cabled: "Venezuelan troops have crossed the Bchomburgk lino into the territory in' with British Guiana, 'advices from Georgetown report, and have peremptorily the progress of a expedition sent put, ostensibly at least, to survey the ground. On being wth force tho British retired protest."

No effort has been Sdo heretofore by the Venezuelans to gturb the British occupancy of Point and' It is unlikely that they do so now, more likely that the trouble oc- curred on the Aniaoura River, which Is Within a short distance of Is the point, at which the Schomburgk' line begins. The right bank of that river is occupied by the British and the left bank by the Venezuelans. "At that point the situation of affairs was to that on the Uru- an when the Incident occurred there that has been the subject of so much comment. It is quite possible that a of British surveyors in this neighborhood have fallen afoul of Venezuelans stationed there.

"I feel confident that the Venezuelans were not the aggressors In this instance. "It'has been our desire to avoid any occurrence that might possibly complicate the peaceful and honorable settlement dispute, and I do not believe our men have been looking for a flght or wilfully brewing trouble."

As soon as the preliminary work of making sound- Ings has been completed, caissons will be sunk and the work pushed with energy. At the meeting 'of the Commissioners Wednesday Chief Engineer Buck, of' the Commission, submitted a plan of the new bridge.

In accepting, the memorial the Prime Minister expressed cordial- sympathy with the object of the signers and said the.

"It is my desire," he declared, "to extend arbitration as far as consistent with just rights to those whose Interests are committed to the Government's charge, and I do not believe any other view is heio' by the United States. The highest desire on both sides is that every Important Issue should be arbitrated." Under Foreign Secretary.

Curzon, replying In the House of Commons to-day to a question whether, in view ot the extreme Importance of reaching a basis for the settlement of the Venezuelan question before the Presidential election in the United States, the Government will steps to expedite a settlement by adopting some form of arbitration, said the British Government has taken and still is taking steps In that direction, and it hopes ere long to be able to lay upon the table papers showing the nature of these steps.

MADRID, Spain, June' and Russia have shown Spain such steadfast sympathy," says La Epoca, a ministerial organ, "as to justify the belief that If an alliance should be necessary there would be no difficulty in the way." All Madrid to-night inquire as to the significance ot -the declaration. It has attracted much notice In political and financial circles, and in diplomatic circles, too. In fact, La Epoca's statement has been telegraphed to many foreign governments.

Senor Gallego, a deputy from Cuba, made a violeret attack in the Cortes today upon the United States on account of the popular sympathy In America with the Cuban Insurgents. He censured the conduct of American Senators and Representatives In Congress, whom he accused of having grossly attacked everything Spanish, from the Queen regent downward. The house received this speech coldly. In the course of the animated debate his speech precipitated, Gallogo elicited from the Ministers of Foreign Affairs and of Marine these facts: First, that the Spanish Government gave America satisfaction In the case of the steamer Allianca, In consequence of the report of the Admiral commanding the Cuban squadron admitting that the Allianca waa outside Jurlsdlctipnal waters when interfered with by' the Spanish cruiser Venadlto. Second, that only -American citizens but the subjects of other powers had made claims amounting already! to, for damages by the Cuban war.

Third, that all the papers in the Mora case will be laid before the Cortes. The Duke of Tctuan, the Foreign Minister, very handsomely and warmly declared that ha is highly satisfied with tho conduct of the United States Government, and quite persuaded that the majority of tho American people do not sympathize with tile Cuban Insurrection' and wish to treat'Spain fairly.

TUNIS, Africa, Juno. report that a party of thirty-five men, headed by the Marquis de Mores, who entered the Soudan to enlist Arab chiefs against the British, had been massacred to a man, Is confirmed. The members of the Mores expedition were killed near Ga'Hames. fl --wa In The Marquis de Mores never hid his ight under a bushel. Whether posing as a Royalist and the friend of the Duo d'Orleans, as a French socialist -with anarchistic tendencies, as an American cowboy with pistols In every pocket and a hand ever ready to kill, as a great cattle ranchman and beef packer, or as a bloodthirsty duellist who -fought to kill, he has always Hved, and enjoyed living, in tho public eye.

When the Marquis came to this country, fifteen years or so ago, he had already established a Deputation as a dare-devil and a spendthrift. A son of the Due de Vulombros'a, he was a Le- gitimist of the most pronounced kind. He believed in the proverb that "A King can do no wrong," and lie proba- to li that wnat a Marquis i specially the Marquis de Mores about right. 1 his own patrimony royal style, he started a new a OOLlr by marrying, the daughter the Baron von Hoffman," a Now York nnJ) W0 i' th many millions of dollars, and started in to cut a broad swath on thui established. For a time JJ? tll ed to enjoy the pleasures of Idleness, living in frew York on a fat salary ted lth a sinecure In his father- lllii 100 But thfeso Pleasures palled on his appetite after awhile, equipping himself with cowboy habiliments of the most approved stage oat- tern, he went to the wild West determined to "give It a whirl." bofu ht I 0 000 aorcs in th Bad Lands of Dakota, fenced it in with wire fencing, and started cattle raising on a ffiffantlo scale.

He founded the town of Moclora, named after his pretty little wile, built beef packing houses of enormous capacity in varloua cities, established refrigerator lines, and set out 'to beat Swift and Armour at their own game. At flrat the bad men of the Bad resented the Intrusion of the tenderfoot, and wiild -tales were told of ambuscades and murders on both sides. Men were killed and the Marquis was locked up on charges of murder. But the upshot cf the business waa that, the cowboys grew to respect ilia dare-devil with the handy revolvers; nnd whether ho killed all the men or didn't kill allegations going both ways in the matter- he certainly won his way into popular lavor, and spent a great many thousands of his dollars. But Swift and Armour were not to be beaten so easily, and the Marquis finally sold out his big meat enterprise at a loss and permitted others to take up the burden where he lafd It down.

After shaking the dust of the West from his the Marquis was often hoard of In unexpected places. Now ho was hunting tigers In India. Again he was looking for elephants In Ceylon. Next he was heard on human trails In gay Paris. He became a "lover of tha populace" and raised various kinds of Cain In his efforts to advance the cause of the proletariat.

He took part In the anti-Semite war, and In Juno, 1892, received a number challenges. Capt. Mayor, of the Engineer Corps, a bravo officer of the French army and a professor In tho Ecole Polytechnlquc, appears to have had -the first call. De Mores met him and gave him a. wound dn tho chest from which he died the next morning.

The Marquis fought, vr, he usually did, with great ferocity. Ho was tried for manslaughter, but, of course, not convicted. The Marquis always held that Mayer Intended to kill him, but that ho had no such intention against his antagonist. They shook hands after Mayer was wounded. He also fought a fierce duel with M.

Isaac, Sub-Prefeot of Fourlles, who was very anxious to kill him, and wounded him- severely. A fun description of Do Mores' duels would (111 columns. The Marquis's extravagance finally led to his wife and father seeking In the courts to put him under the restraint of the Judiciary Council, and the Marquise also asked to be divorced from him In person De Mores was an Apollo. He had a handsome face, a well-knit, athletic figure and charming manners. He loved a fight as It the blood of Donnybrook were In his veins.

There was, indeed, only one thing that he loved more, and that was notoriety: Personally -ho was very kind and considerate in his ways, and his generosfty was proverbial. Wherever he went was surrounded by 'sycophants and flatterers, who bled him to the'-r. heart's -content, robbed him unblushlngly slandered him behind ''his ba'ok-'- after- -the manner of their kind In all, generations.

Plllsbury was seen just as he was leaving for Boston. He said 1 "I resigned because the directors refused to protect me against the disreputable action and insolent remarks of one of the members.

On applying to ono ot the club attendants I was informed that-Mr.

He told Bison and the latter said It was at his house and If I wanted it I could come and get It. Then I sent a telegram to Elaon telling him to return the umbrella under pain of prosecution.

Mayor Gleason, of Island City, Is again after the scalp of Superintendent of Public Schools John E. Shull, who is a holdover ot the Sanford administration.

When Mayor Gleason came into office he refused to recognize the Glea- gon Board of Education. The actions of the dual boards BO mixed matters up that they finally drifted into the courts. The Sanford Board got the worst of the legal battle, but Supt. Shull was returned to his duties by the courts. Now the superintendent, who has a contract for two years with the city, finds himself confronted by charges 'preferred" by Mayor Qleaeon.

The charges are numerous and contain many counts, including neglect of duty, usurpation of power, violation of tho rules and regulations of the board. The superintendent was 5'esterday sez'vecl with a copy of the charges to appear before the Board of Education on Saturday week. Supt.
