By TetaftTwb to tha Horning star. Washington March 80 The State' Department has recalled Minister Frank Loomis from Carraca;to Wash ' ington for purposes of consultation. The issues between the government of the United 8tates aiffl the govern ment of Venezuela have become more acute lately and it is desired that tne department may be able to ac . quaint itself thoroughly with the situation in, Venezuela through more direct means than the scanty cable communications that are being ex changed. So far as can be learned ths last protest of our government to the Venezuelan government respect ing the the treatment of consul Raiz lias not met with satisfactory response and the asphalt controversy is still open. It is not believed that formal official complaint has been made Against Mr. Loomis, save in the case of the brief of one of the attorneys in the asphalt controversy; but, how ever that may be, the minister has the full approval of the government for everytning ne . nas done, according to the present information, and there is no reason to believe that he will .not return to Venezuela after his his xonferonee with the Secretary of State.

Summer Romance In a City. iso, l m urea or seaside romances, so I propose to stay here and see what sort of romance a summer in New York has to offer." Sam Storrow jumped upon a north bound electric car as he spoke, leaving the man to whom he had announced his plans in a speculative mood, "I'll bet," murmured Ralph Ralston, as he hailed the next south bound car, lhat Storrow'8 had a row with Madge Marbury.' Since the date, just four years ago, when they had left Harvard, neither Sam Storrow nor Ralph Ralston had settled down to any serious occupa tion. They had devoted themselves to the somewhat indefinite pastime of looking around." It had been the kind of looking around usual with Idle men of private means moderate dissipation and love making, or the pretense of lovemaklng, with women who were as well off and as idle as themselves. But It must be admitted of the two Storrow's life had been much the more Innocent, and hi affair with Miss Madge Marbury might have resulted in matrimony ere this were it not for the frequency of their petty quarrels, none of which might ever have occur red if tliey had not had so much Idle time to quarrel in. The excitement of these little tiffs had begun to pall upon him, and when the last one occurred he decided that he would stay in town when Madge went away. In fact, he was hard up ror a new sensation. The electric car whirled him rapidly up Madison avenue. He looked at the monotonous array of drawn shades in the house fronts-rlnevitable symptom of the summer season and the thought came to him of the darkened, silent re ception rooms so gay with beauty and fashion in winter time. But the butter flies bad fled to shore and mountain, leaving Madison avenue to console it self until their return. Miss Madge Marbury had gone to Bar Harbor. "Goodby, Mr. Storrow," she had said to him Just before they parted. "I hope you'll .find some romance In the city to compensate you for your self imposed and solitary martyrdom." These words came back to him now, and the recollection made him feel more than ever resolved to find his ro mance during nis summer in town. He would not have Madge Marbury chaff him on her return. , Ralph Ralston thoroughly disagreed with Sam Storrow as to the relative charms of city and seaside In summer. This was natural, for the two men had never agreed upon any question since the day they first met, and neither bore i much love toward the other. So a few days after the meeting with Storrow Ralston was In the vortex of Bar Harbor's gay life, troubling him self very little about romance and con tent with agreeable realities. There was no more agreeable reality than his present proximity to Miss Madge Marbury on the veranda of a cottage that nestled picturesquely up among the pines. , They were enjoying the beauty of the cool Maine night. The intense blue of the heavens gave that suggestion of illimitable vastness which, though the suggestion maybe always there, Is only borne in on us under the spell of certain moods; the song of the. pines kept time with the more distant music of the incoming tide, and the breeze cjjje laden with a mingled fragrance I U1 uaisum ana. odor of ocean brine. "Can you imagine, Miss Marbury, a more fantastic notion than his staying in town In search of romance when1 he might be here?" Ralston had been expatiating upon the eccentricities of Sam Storrow. - "J don't know," she said. "We may find our romance In the most unexpect ed places." "I rather imagine that Storrow some how is not without some definite idea or wnere to find his romance." ane oegan to think.

"After all," he reflected, "you can bring any of these women round If Zl only go the right way about It" And, as for her, she had veered back to the old point of view-that as be tween the two men one had shown his ft hls Presence, whereas the other had found a superior attraction elsewhere. th0gnt yftn conld betray any confldenc&.Mr,jialstpnJ"ghe JlMd no if i mum fnTjeTated answer to till" last query, " should not want ever to nee you again. He knew what she meant well enough; for, like herself, he was think ing'of how very near to victory he had been not longer ago than last night on this same veranda. r : " ? Somehow it seemed to have grown darker. The song of the pines swelled Into a stronger chorus, and there was a deeper, more sullen, note in the dis tant booming of the surf. Tney were standing together now on the edge of the veranda, and he had taken her hand without any protest on her part. He had drawn her gently and gradually around, so that she was half facing him now, and his other arm, which embraced the post of the piazza at her left, was ready to encir cle her neck the moment his instinct should tell him it was safe to make the attempt "Miss Madge," he whispered Into her very ear, "say that you believe me worthy of all your confidence." It was the last ditch, and there was plainly a struggle going on within her, for in spite of the cool Maine night her blood coursed so fast that it was a race between her heart and pulse, beats. His purely animal instinct warned him that she was winning a victory this time over bersclf and over him, and as he tightened his hold upon her hand and let his hand drop from the piazza post across her shoulder she gave a sort of gasp, wrenched herself free from him and darted Into the house through the open French win dow. The band was playing in Tompkins square to the motley east side audi ence who had poured out, from the reeking rooms of torrid tenements as well aa from homes of comparative. comfort. Decent poverty, squalid need, relative wealth, rubbed shoulders here upon a ground of common equality. But in a remote corner of the square the elective- light played with a rather weird effect upon the strangely deter mined face of a woman a refined look ing, high bred woman, clearly not in touch with; her surroundings. Beside her sat Sam Storrow, hia eves upon the ground. But his companion was keen ly alert, and presently, when she saw another woman approaching, she wait ed until she noticed Storrow give a surprised start of reeo-Toition, and then she arose and snoku to the newcomer. "Miss Marbury." she said, "when I sent you that anonymous letter to Bar Harbor I believed I could reach your heart, although I had never seen you. I brought you here to open your eves. A week ago Mr. Knlpli Ralston, walk ing with me across the square, pointed out Mr. Storrow, whom I did not know. 'Storrow,' said he in his usual flippant way and as If it were the best joke in the world, 'is slumming for romance this summer in town. Get acquainted with him and show him th tender ro mance of the shims.' J am one of a university settlement party living among the east side tenements, and I got acquainted with Mr. Storrow and with bis story from his own Hps. "Miss Marbury, to Ralph Ralston's propensity for fickle flirtation I owe my romance and its loss. Now it is my turn, and my resolve to spoil Ralph Ralston's romance is no stronger than ray resolve that you shall benefit by my experience. Miss Marbury, I am not a man hater, but I still trust I shall never be less than a woman, and my revenge upon Ralston will be sweeter If I know that you have found your romance In one who is worthy of you." She glanced at Storrow, who sat-! there dumfounded, while the incandes- ! cent globe, glowing with a fitful radi ance, illumined the flush of triumph on one woman's face, on the other's the first dawning of the 'truth.

To nromin- ent Senators with whom the President talked to day said that the strength of tbe new army would not be greab-r than necessary to meet tbe conuiiions. Not a man would be enlisted whose services were not required to cope with tne situation. Tne new army aet provides fori an army wltb a minimum of 65 000 men and a maximum sirenelh of 100. D00 men. The discretion as to tbe ze of the force to be enlisted is lodged in the President.- It is be, therefore. who will ultimately decide what the situa tion calls for.

Tbe nature of these instructions to Gen eral Mac Arthur are not made public, but it is known that they relate to Aguioaldo. The position of the gov eminent regarding the insurgent prisoner is at present tbe same as to ward other Filipino prisoners, whether they have voluntrry surrendered to the American troops or been captured in battle. The proclamations of General MacArtbur, the instruc lions of the President to the Taft Com mission and the addresses of that com mission to the people of the Philip pines cover the case of Aeuinaido. ; Under these various communications the people of tbe lhilippines who. have been in arms against the United i States government have been off red i amnesty if tbey lay down their arms and accept the sovereignty of the i United Sutes.

JUGGLERS AND ACROBATS. Americans Are Noiv More Clever Than Chinese and Japa. "The older generation of theater go ers will no doubt recall the troupe of Japanese acrobats and jugglers that cre ated such a sensation in this country some years ago," said a retired theatrical manager recently. "It was the one to -which 'Little All Right' belonged. The Japs and Chinese nsed to -be considered the best jugglers and equilibrists in the world, but they are far behind the Amer icans of today. Their big reputation has been overshadowed long ago. "The company I have just mentioned caught the people by the novelty of their tricks. By the way. tbe nickname of 'All Right' was given the little fellow because of the signal he would always give his father when they were about to perform some daring acrobatic feat. A ri' the tooy would pipe when he was ready to be to-sed by bis father head over heels in the air. The name tickled the fancy of the populace and became a valuable trademark in the troupe. When the Little All Right company went out of existence, it was sold for a good round sum. It was stolen afterward by some fake company, and a long lawsuit re sulted. "You may remember that Little All Right used to slide down nu inclined wire from the first balcony to -tbe footlights, keeping his balance by means of u paper umbrella. It was then regarded as uinr velous. There are performers today who do the snme thing in evening dress while smoking a cigarette and with uothiug to balance them except their bare hands. Alter tne wuite acrobats had time to practice they beat the Japs at their own game. Same thing with juggling. Our fellows soon caught on and beat the ori entals at every turn. "I remember one of the most fetching things the Chinese did was to keep a lot of paper butterflies in the air by the aid of a fan. The uninitiated never discover ed that these butterflies were kept in the ir exactly the same distance above the head of the performer by means of an in visible silk thread attached to them. No Chinaman attempted to do the trick with out the thread, but in a little while a number of American jugglers did the same butterfly trick without the help of the invisible threads. "The feat was beautiful and attractive, but after awhile it became so cheapened by constant use that it was dropped from the bills of all first class places of amuse ment and relegated to the cheap side show tents, along with most of the Chi nese ana Japanese acrobats and glers."

Only One Quest Was Injured Fire Caused by an Electric Wire. Another Bniidicg Borned. By Telegraph to the wi.ruiuk huu Richmond, Va., March 30. The magnificent Jefferson Hotel, the pride of Richmond, was practically wiped out by fire early this, morning. All thatjremaiosof tbe splendid structure, which was built and furnisb-d by the late Lewis Ginter at a cost if over 1,000,000, are the two clock towers a d part of the court fronting on Frank lin street The fire was discovered near midnight high up in tbe Main street section of the buildrn?. and at first was not considered serious. The hotel apparatus whs brought into plav but tbe hose burst. The limes sprtVd rapidly .and messengers were- sent through the buUdicg to awaken the guests, many of wnom had to be dragged out of bed. There was a general rush towards the Franklin street part. The fire made an immense light and in a short time the vicinity was thronged with all classes, many persons giving ex pression to their emotions in tears. Tbe fire department worked burriedlv but under great difficulty, owing to ihe height of the building. At one time it was thought that tbe middle section and the Franklin street section could be saved, but the former was soon swept out and the latttr practi cally ruin ned. In the latter wete a number of very valuable pictures and valentine's marble statue of Jefferson. The Btatue was saved with the head broken off, and the pictures were got ten out, aa was much of the furniture. All tbe Guests Escaped. Mr. Richards, a travelling man of Danville, Va., was the only guest hurt. He broke bis le? falling down a flight of steps. A Richmond boy named Robertson is missing. It is feared he was caught in tbe burning building. Several firemen were more or less injured but none seriously. The insurance on the building is about $650,000. The Jefferson was opened about six years ago and was one of the finett hotels in tbe South It occupied a full half block and was regarded aa practically fireproof The fire originated in the linen room, and it is supposed from a defective electric wire. All thi guests in the Main street part lost their baggage. The empty ing of the hotel of gue&ts was singu larly free from any dramatic scenes, owing to the wide corridors and tbe number of staircases. Another Building Burned. But one building beside the hotel was destroyed. This was tbe Pace nats n the east Main street side of the hotel. Reports wete current of loss of lif among the firemen, bat investigation shows they were not true.
