GERMANY HAS A BIG CLAIM
A POSSIBLE REASON FOR THE DEPARTURE
OF wARsHIPs FOR vENEzUELA


Washington. June 1O-In the absence Of any
advices on the subject, the officials here are IN
the dark as 10 the reasons for the hurried de-
parture of German warships for Venezuela as
reported in the St. Thomas dispatch. Germany
has q big claim against Venezuela-that Of the
Berlin Cornrany OF Discount for the non-per-
Torrance of engagements which the Venezuelan
Government has undertaken in connection with
the great Venezuelan railway, built by the gov
eminent The claim approximates 100000
boiivars One inference-and il is merely that,
as there is no official information on which to
base the staternent-is that Germany has sent
her vessels TO La Guayra to enforce The pay
nent Of the claim, as Venezuela has not at
TEMPTED TO meet the obligation
The aipIouatic correspondence of the State
Department shows that Germany has consid-
cred the question Of coercion in connection with
the payment of the claim. A communication
from the German Embassy Of December 20 last
has this 10 say the subject
In case the German Government should be
obliged TO use coercion against Venezuela IN
connection with the pending claims. il will have
10 be considered what kind of measures should
be adopted. The most important measure OF
coercion-that is, the blockade of Venezuelan
harbors-wOul0 have TO be carried through Win
cut declaration Of war preceding it. block
ade therefore would be a peace blockade. Such
a blockade would touch. likewise, the ships Of
neutral powers, inaSmuch as such ships, al
though a conflsc2tion of them would not have to
be considered would have TO be turned away
and orohibited until the blockade should be
raised IL the same manner European States
have proceeded on such occasions, especially
England and France.
1t is not believed that the United States Gov
eminent would raise any objection should Ger
many undertake the blockade Of Venezuelan
ports 70 collect the claim Of the Berlin COM
pany. as the President in his last message to
Congress made the following observation in
connection with the attitude OF the American
Government on the Monroe Doctrine:
We do not guarantee any State against pun
sshment II Il miscOnducts itself, provided that
punishment does not take the form Of the &C
QUESTION of territory by any non-American
power.
