Washington, Feb. 5.—A concession of two additional months'of preferential treatment made by .Minister Bowen to Iiaron vou Sternburg is the sole development in the Venezuelan affair. The apparent hitch in the negotiations still continues, and the prospects of early settlement are exceedingly gloomy. An answer to MiniHtcr Bowen's proposal to the allies at the time of his rejection of their demand on Monday night Is still awaited. But that this will be a definite answer does not appear likely.

The deceased was born in Cummlngton, Mass., in 1816, and graduated from Yale In 1839. After practicing law and serving in the Massachusetts Legislature, he was elected to Congress, and served in the lower house for 16 years. He wa3 elected United States Senator In 1875, retiring on March 4, 1893. His total length of legislative work Is said'to liave exceeded that of any other American. It was made plain by him that he would like to see the United States increase its navy to assist his country in policing the seas for the protection of trade and commerce.

YOU GET THE BEST AT WILLIAMS and M'ANULTY Lively Debate* In Both Senate and House. Washington, Feb. 5—Toward the end of the session of the senate there was a lively passage of words between Mr. Gallinger and Mr. Beverldge. The former declared In unmistakable terms that Mr. Beverldge and his followers on the statehood bill were prolonging the debate in pursuance of a "deliberate and premeditated system of obstruction." The general staff bill was reconsidered and passed with an amendment putting the chief of staff under the direction of the president "Doblln never had $5,000 at one time In his life. lie must hnve been given authority to make the offer to Lessler. Who gave him that authority'/" They say Before court bad adjourned under Judge Herriek's personal examination of talesmen three men liud been seated iu the jury box. The concession liiade by Minister Howen is an effort further to gratify the desire of the allies to preserve their prestige. That three great powers should back down after demanding preferential treatment from a small country like Venezuela was declared to be too serious a blow to their national pride. Accordingly Mr. Howen consented on Monday night in a counter proposition to recognize the principle of preferential treatment and grant the allies one month of such treatment. He has now increased this offer to three months. Dealers in High Grade CARPETS, RUGS, PEOPLE S STORE WEIGHT OF MINER'S TON, The committee says specifically it was not Quigg.
