German officer Was Killed.

1t has been learned that an officer
of the German cruiser Vineta was
killed during the bombardment by a
rifle bullet fired from the shore. The
Vineta left Porto Cabello suddenly
for Willemstad. Curacos, where she
arrived with her flag at half-mast 1t
is believed she went to Willemstad
for the purpose of burying the body
of the dead officer.
American Vice-Consul Volkmar,
German Consul Tiede and British
Consul holster have prevailed upon
the German and British commodores
to desist from their plan to disem-
bark marines, seize the cannon in
Fort Solano and ask for the capitula-
ton of Porto Cabello.
The allies have released Gen. Bello,
who was made prisoner in Castle
Libertador, and have promised to re-
lease the other prisoners in a few
hours. Fort Solano and Castle Lib
ertador are not to be garrisoned by
Venezuela as long as the present diff
ficulties continue. This is agreed upon
to avoid another bombardment

in the British house of commons
Premier Balfour said there was no
such thing as pacific blockade" A
state of war actually existed with
Venezuela and an intimation of the
blockade would be given to the pow
ers.
Mr. Balfour added that the block
ade would be carried out with as lit
tie inconvenience to neutrals as pos
sible.
The premier also said the opera
tions were reluctantly undertaken,
not to recover debts, but, after long
and patient delay, to recover coM-
pensation for assaults on British snb-
jects and the seizure of British YES
sells.
He believed that the Germans also
had claims besides the financial ones.
Mr.. Balfour's statement was made
in reply to the desire of the liberal
leader, Sir Henry Campbell-Banner-
man, for information on the Vene-
zuelan situation. After reiterating
Lord Lansdowne's brief statement in
the house of lords, the premier con-
tinued:
"The blockade will be carried out
by Great Britain and Germany along
different portions of the coast, and
though the two fleets will have the
same objects they will not act as one
force. We never had any intention
of landing troops in Venezuela or of

bardment of the forts at Porto Ca
bello is ascribed to German initiative,
whereas the officials say without res
ervation that the bombardment was
at the British commanders sugges-
ton, the Topaze being the British
ship.
The German commander partici-
pated in the firing as a loyal ally.
The German government is not in
sisting ON more severe measures than
the original plan contemplated, and
regards the sinking of the two dim
inutive, wholly unseaworthy craft, !"
as an insignificant incident"
The Berlin newspapers print from
Kiel statement that the German
cruisers Ariadne, Amazon and Niobe
are again being equipped for depart
ure to Venezuela, but the correspond
ent of the Associated Press is inform
ed officially that no such orders have
been given and that it will depend
later upon the demands of the block
ade whether additional vessels will
be sent

occupying territory even temporarily
We do not think il desirable on either
military or other grounds. All the
conditions governing such a blockade
have been carefully considered and
will be published In due time for the
information of neutrals.
"The government is most anxious
that these operations, the necessity
for which we deeply regret, should be
as little inconvenient to neutrals as
they can possibly be made. No diff
ference will be made between the
vessels of the various neutral powers
l think it is quite likely that the Uni
ted States will think that there can
not be such a thing as a pacific
blockade and l, personally, take the
same view. Evidently blockade in

Argentina Not to Interfere.

1t is denied officially that Argentina
intends to intervene in the Vene-
zuelan affair. although the press pro-
test against the actions of the Anglo
German fleets. In the chamber Dep
uty Martinez protested against what
he termed the brutality of the powers
against weak nations and invited the
Argentine government to initiate a
policy aimed frankly at securing the
solidarity of South America by means
of an agreement of mutual defense
and independence among all South
American nations. NJ Martinez's res.
olution was referred to committee.

Catarrh Polsons.

Catarrh is capable of changing all the
life-giving secretions of the body into
scalding fluids which destroy and inAame
every part they come in contact with. APP
plications to the places affected by catarrh
can do little good save to soothe or quiet
disagreeable symptoms. Hence it is that
gargles, sprays, atomizers and inhalants
only serve as temporary relief. So long as
the irritating secretions of catarrh continue
to be formed so long will the membranes
continue to be infamed. no matter what
treatment is used.

desirable effect, and that remedy is

1t is now more than probable that
the difficulty between Venezuela and
the powers will be arbitrated. AL
though no definite conclusion has
been reached, it is generally con-
ceded that Minister Bowen will be
one of the arbitrators.
This action was the result of a de-
mand made upon President Castro by
large financial interests in Caracas,
urging him to bow to the superior
force and yield to the power of the
allies, receding as gracefully as pos
sible from the position he has taken.
Strong pressure was brought to bear
upon him to influence him to take
this action. A large number of the
matter to the president and urged
him to this course They submitted
that Venezuela was powerless against
the mighty strength of England and
Germany. assisted through the ultima
tum of Italy and the withdrawal of
the Italian minister, by the strength

1t is reported that President Cas-
tro has decided to yield to the wishes
of the delegation and sue for peace
through Minister Bowen. He is re-
ported to be willing to accept the
terms of the British and German ulti-
matums.

in the expectation that the allies
would attempt to land at one or both
of these points.
But there has been a change of
feeling, and the prominent men of
Venezuela who were at one time
ready to lead the people in defense
of their country now consider that
justification to take the men of the
republic away from their families and
their work does not exist. They have
resolved to discover means to bring
about arbitration, or at least treat
with the allies. The means sought is
thought to lie through the United
