The arrival of the United States
gunboat Marietta at La Guaira, yes
terday was due To rumor that United
States minister was in danger. There
has been no ground for such q runor
and the presence of the Marietta WAS

The situation here continues to be
critical and there is much excitement
among the German residents of Cara

American legation to seek refuge.
The people of Caracas IL astonished

The fact that the people of Nenezuela
arc in absolute ignorance of designs of
the allies upon their crew creates n
deep and disturbing impression here.

of The Associated Press:
IF there is TO be war let US know and
