sincere regret at wha, it calls the way the
American press IL allowing itself to publish
unfounded suspicious OF the German aims

that only partisan feeling can prompt the
drawing OF distinctions between the con-
duct of Great Britain and that Of Germany.

the same question, asks il Germany is at
peace or at war with Venezuela It COM
pares the present situation to that in China

to be at war with that country Germany,

that she is now a. war with Venezuela

called potato war without bloodshed

said that the new rule came really under

alcoholic beverages or so-called bitters
could be made TO pay the Government t25

OF this license fee would be an open con-

that he was selling liquor and would give
the State Excise Board an opportunity to

Most Of the big drug stores In this city

The first proceeding toward the acausi-

In the Borough Hall in Brooklyn before
Aldermen Lundy and Malone. members Of
the local board Of improvement for the

to petition by large number Of the prop
ertyholders in Gravesend and the ad joining

approved the scheme. 1t is proposed to
acquire all the land from the present Sea

'Coney Island will be accessible when
the proposed tunnels are constructed to
an enormous number Of people. II Is nv
desire that the island shall become national

ton Of the shore are such as to make IL
the most attractive in the world and the

which now exist could be used for landing
passengers from Manhattan who might

doubtedly large number OF people will

the people Of the West, who are always
attracted by the sea, will flock there In
great numbers rather than TO the seaside
resorts Of New Jersey, which are inacces-
sible to those having but brief time at their
command

CAN THE CARACAS GET IN?
Red n Line steamship May Have to stop
at Curacao.

Shipping firms which do business with
Vene zuela, especially the Red d Line, were
awaiting some notification from the State
epatches TO the effect that war" blockade
Of Venezuelan ports would begin on Satur-
day. At the Office OF Boulton, Bliss 4 Dal-
lett, agents Of the Red ID Line It was said
that no such notification had come, but
that they expected one to-day unless the
allies changed their plan by reason of
pending negotiations.
The steamer Caracas will be affected BY
the blockade II it is put in force on Satur-
day. The Caracas took down great deal
OF freight consigned by firms here to mer-
chants in La GuayTa and other ports The
Caracas arrived at San Juan yesterday and

her agents here that the blockade will have
the effect Of closing the ports to American
vessels word will probably be sent to the
Caracas at Curacao, notifying her not to
proceed In view of the present neeotia-
at once, but would remain at Curacao a
few days to await developments.
The Caracas expected to arrive of La
Guayra early Monday morning In antici-
patton Of trouble when she sailed some of
the consignors. at the advice, il was said
OF the Venezuelan Consul, had their goods
marked with notices to the effect that they
were the property Of American citizens
and were consigned TO American citizens.
This might have done some good had
