"CALLED DOWN."
Clarke Touched British Press Ten
der Spot.
Venezuelan Affairs Caused "A Scnsa-
tion in the Political World.

London. Oct. 17.-A great sensation has
been caused in the political world by the
speech OF Sir Edward Clarke, Conserva.
tive member OF parliament. and who was
solicitor general In Lord Sallsbury's
previous ministry, in which he said
speaking OF the. Venezuelan question
that the decision OF the American bound
airy commission would be against Eng
land, not because d was/a hostile com.
mission, but bec1rse he believed nc
honest. impartial arbitrator or commits.
sion could decide la favor OF England's
claims upon the evidence. Sir Edwards
assertion is widely commented OH in al
political circles and in the press.
The Daily News GiberaD. I'm addition
to an editC>lal on the subject, devotes
two columns, with a map 10 giving, in
extenso. the extracts and the explanation
OF the mystery. OF the alleged crooked
map OF the Shomburgk line, and asks:
What's the matter with Sir Edward
Clarke? His statements are astonishing
and they indicate an amazing ignorance
OF the English Blue book, refuting the
Venezuelan CASE
The Daily News says ii supposes that
Sir Edward Clarke is infected with dan
gerouS disease or inverted Jingoism.
The panic-stricken talk Of the whipping
Lord Salisbury is likely TO get from the

The Graphic says in an editorial: Lord
Salisbury's task is not made easier by
such speeches. The successive foreign
ministers. who have tried to settle the
Venezuelan trouble, ought to feel prop
erly snubbed
The Morning Post (Con.) has an edi-
torial, which says: But for Sir Edward
Clarke's influence as a lawyer and a
politician, the whole thing might be dis.
missed as unworthy Of consideration.
1t is impossible to imagine how he could
have fallen into such an evident trap.
The Post advises Sir Edward to now
study the English side Of the case.
