And the German Charge D'Affaires,

Cruiser Vineta.
VENEZUELANS AMAZED
REGARD THE THREAT OF A DEMON.
STRATION AS A BLUFF
Statement from the British Foreign
Office and Premier BaIfOur-
Cause of the Trouble.

CARACAS, Dec. s.-The British minister.
W. II. ID. Haggard, and the German charge
d'affaires, Won Pilgrim Baltazzi. left Cara
cas- at o'clock this afternoon for La
guayra, where Minister Haggard went on
board the British cruiser Retribution and
Herr Won Pilgrim Baltazzi boarded the
German cruiser Vineta. Both the British
and the German legations have been closed.
Yesterday afternoon the British minister
and the German charge d'affaires deposited
at the private residence of the foreign
minister. Lopez Barralt, separate demands,
the British demand being for the settle
ment OF claims and other matters arising
out OF the last revolution and the German
demand being for the payment of the in
claims. The demands are without any
specifications as to the time given for an
answer, but they are in the form of an
uitimatum.
At 3 o'clock to-day Minister Haggard.
his secretary. Grant Duff. and the chan
cellor of the legation, Godfrey, left Caracas
faires. Won Pilgrim -Baltazzi. for Laguayra.
On the arrival of the train at the latter
port. at o'clock. thirty officers met the
diplomats at the station. Minister Hag-
gard and the other members of the British
legation went board the British cruiser
Retribution. while the German charge
d'affaires boarded the German cruiser
vineta- The ministers left Caracas with
out previously notifying the Venezuelan
government. probably in order to avoid any
hostile demonstration.
Yesterday and to-day being festivals in
Caracas, all the public offices are closed
and 1t is impossible to see anyone in au-
thority regarding the departure of the min
listers. The handing in of demand of such
a nature at the private residence of min
lister. forgetting diplomatic rules. is be-
neved in some quarters to be without prece-
dent
The actual situation Is incomprehensible
here. Up to this morning no one appeared
to know anything about the Anglo-German
projected demonstration. The foreign min
lister said he considered a menace on the
part OF Germany TO be inadmissible and
that any threat would be only a feeler,
while as for England, said the minister,
she had no grounds for aggression.
The Associated Press correspondent in
spected the two legations yesterday and
there were then preparations indicating
that the ministers intended to abandon
their posts The government has made no
military preparations at Laguayra. Ven-
ezuelan citizens considered the threat of a
demonstration as bluff and set aside the
possibility OF an Anglo-German demonstra-
tion. The correspondent learns that one
of the chief officers of the German cruiser
vineta told a German family at Laguayra
yesterday that blockade OF the coasts
OF Venezuela was imminent

Uftimatums Presented by Britain and

LONDON, Dec S.-Great Britain and Ger
many have presented ultimatums to venez-
uela, which will be followed I'D by the
seizure of the customs unless a satisfactory
settlement Is forthcoming within a brief
period. The ultimatums have a time limit.
but the exact date cannot be ascertained
here
The Foreign Office states with regard to
the time limit: 1T is a reasonable time
I'm which Venezuela can satisfy the injured
governments. Both notes are practically
identical. although the amounts of the
claims differ. The notes merely reiterate
the continued disregard by the Venezuelan
government of all our representations spec
ify our claims, and demand immediate ac-
tion on the part of President Castros gov
ernment in connection Herewith" The
British governments case is practically
Identical with the statements made i'm pre-
vious dispatches from London, in which IL
was first announced that the present action
was contemplated. The British minister
w H. d. HaSgard. was instructed, in case
the uItimatum met with hostile reception,
TO go aboard a British warship, or. II that
was impracticabIs. 10 go into the neighbor-
ing British colony IAdvices from Caracas

course. and is now on board the British

OPEN LETTER FROM CASTRO.
He Refuses to Believe Britain and
Germany Mean What They Say.

CARACAS, Dec. S.-The Venezuelan press
publishes an open letter from President
Castro on the embroglio with Great Britain
and Germany. In this communication
President Castro says: Foreign cable
grams relate that certain foreign nations.
among them Great Britain and GERMANY.
have allied themselves together to carry
out acts of violence and aggression against
Venezuela and their manner of obtaining
the resumption of the payment of interest
on the public debt was to be suspected as
a consequence of the revolution that late
Iy crushed Notwithstanding the official
character of this news, 1 refuse to believe
it. because IL is inconceivable that nations
which entertain cordial and friendly rela-
tions with Venezuela should prefer to re-
sort to force rather than follow the diplo-
matte path, especially when the supposed
difference comes fully within the jurisdic-
principle of justice, which. together with
the other attributes of authority. l have
just redeemed Had Venezuela refused to
fulfill her fiscal engagements and had JUS
tice and diplomacy exhausted their re-
sources against such an attempt. only then
could such extreme acts be expected. but
this will never happen
President Castro explains further on that
his government has not increased the debt
of Venezuela and that he paid all that was
ordered during the revolution, including
the German and other railroad freight
charges occasioned by the transportation
OF troops These acts, he says should prove
the honesty of his administration and what
foreigners should expect OF him. Peace is
not far off and with il the fulfllment of
all his promises. He continues: Hon
orably / cannot do more. l put honor first
and will not seek excuses to disarm fool
hardy enmities by accepting humiliations
which would offend the dignity of the
Venezuelan people. and which would not
be i'm accord with my public life I repeat
/ do not believe these alarming versions
The cause of our national dignity Is based
on our rights and our possession Of justice.
and on our relations of friendship and
mutual respect with foreign nations
President Castro concluded by recon-
mending the Venezuelan press to observe
| the discretion and tact demanded by such
| an important matter.

Must Await Peace.

WASHINGTON, Dec. s.-The State De-
partment has received cablegram from
United States Minister Bowen at Caracas
saying that the President of Venezuela has
published letter in the newspapers there
saying that foreign creditors must await
the re-establishment OF peace; then all
promises will be fulfilled According to
President Castro's statement the revolu-
tionary movement In Venezuela has been
crushed in the west and only few towns
in the orient are still In the possession of
the rebels. Ii was estimated these would
fall into the hands of the government In
the course OF another week, so that the
period mentioned in to-day's dispatch for
the restoration OF peace cannot be long de-
ferred.
