which eliminated in Venezuela assum-
ing such an angry attitude as to leave
Downing street fully impressed with
the belief that the Venezuelan govern
ment intends to force matters to a
crucial issue. That diplomatic rup-

contingency thus far scarcely con-
plated.
Cannot Deal with Venezuela
The present diplomatic relations are
so strained that, to quote responsible
British official. 1t would make really
very little difference If the fact be-
came public property by the absence
Of the diplomatic representatives from
Caracas and London. The view of the
foreign Office is that affairs have
reached a stage where 1t is impossible
to deal satisfactorily with Venezuela
in any matter which may come up. In
proof of this contention the foreign
Office instances the report Of the Unit
ed States minister at Caracas. Her
bert w. POwen. announcing that the
Venezuelan government had protested
over PatOs Tor GoOSe) island. over
which the Venezuelan government
claimed sovereignty.
British View of the Controversy.
According to the British govern
ment's understanding PatOS island be-
longs to Great Britain just as much as
Trinidad, and so far as known no Ques-
tions as to its ownership has ever
arisen. Inhabitants of the island have
recently been shot or otherwise endan-
gered through the action of Venezue-
lans-whether government or revOlu-
tionary partisans is not known. For
purposes Of protection the local West
Indian authorities ordered the British
flag to be prominently displayed on the
island; hence the protest which the
foreign Office says is only Of many.
Wants Us to Take IL Over.
An exceptionally prominent official
said to a representative Of the Asso-
ciated Press last evening: Affairs in
Venezuela are so hopelessly muddled
that we can get nothing done. There
is no concealing the fact that the Vene-
zuelan government has made heated
protests to our minister. The chief
grievance appears 70 be the allegation
that the British government Is aiding
the revolutionary army. 1t Is need
less to say this Is perfectly baseless.
We only wish the United States would
take over the whole country and then
perhaps. we could get some peace. OF
all the disturbances Of the last decade
the present seems to be the worst"

Legislative Matters to Come Up.
The convention will remain in ses-
sion through today and tomorrow,
and d number of important matters
will be considered. 1t is understood
that President Perkins and Secretary
Peters will be candidates for re-elec-
ton, and 1t is not thought there will
be any opposition. The delegates say
it is not wise to change the officials
on the verge of the meeting of the
state legislature. The most important
thing to be discussed is the measure
to be introduced in the state legisla-
ture calling for the abOlishment of the
prison contract system. Secretary Pc
ters will champion the measure on
the floor of the convention and he
hopes to have the measure irdorsed.

cusSed. The mine-shooter measure will
come in for share of discussion
The measure calls for a shooter in
each mine to be paid by the operator
whose duty 1t will be to fire all shoots
after the diggers have left the mine.
Muncie and South Bend are applicants
for the next convention. and the
chances seem to favor Muncie.
