Havana, August 2o.-The past two or
three months have witnessed a remarkable
recr,idescence of the American annexa-
ton idea in at least two OF the largest
and most important branches of the British
West Indian possessions, Trinidad and
Jamaica The leaders of the agitation are
generally planters and business men.
These point to the growing prosperity OF
Porto Rico and denounce the system OF
British colonial government.
They also note the desperate stage OF the
sugar industry and the deplorable condi-
ton of the people of the islands and seri-
ously suggest annexation to the UnitcI
States as the only possible chance OF re-
viving their fallen fortunes.
Such is the view of the planters and
business men and both together form
very influential cass--perhaps the most
influential class Of the community.
They Are Afraid Of the Rope.
The natives on the other hand resur-
rect stories of ynching and the workings
of the ant-negro law in the Southern
states and declare themselves emphati-
cally against annexation and strongly in
favor of the British rule, which gives them
a freedom that has become to them even
more precious than industrial and financial
prosperity. Between these two factions
comes another class, influential enough,
though in hopeless minority, holding
that a federation with Canada is the only
remedy for the Ills from which the islands
are undoubtedly suffering And between
them all the newspapers have been kept

WHAT'S GOING ON.
FIVE MINUTES WITH THE BIG
NEWS OF THE WORLD.
Real War in Venezuela.

A serious state of affairs exists in Nenez-
uela. Great Britain and Germany, who
hold claims against her, having presented
a Joint ultimatum, which was ignored, the
united naval squadrons Of these two
powers have proceeded to make trouble.
First, they seized all the ships OF the VEN
ezuelan navy, consisting of about half
dozen inferior craft, and, after sending
the crews ashore, sank the vessels. Thls
provoked an outburst among the Nenez-
uelans which resulted in indignities TO
certain British merchantmen, and In retri-
button the forts at Puerto Cabello were de-
molished by bombardment from BRIT
ish and German cruiser. A blockade OF
the Venezuelan coast has been ordered.
The Venezuelans have temporarily har-
monized their internal differences ana
stand united against what they consider
acts of aggression. Italy, which also mas
heavy claims, has decided TO join with the
others i'm eXacting settlement and spain
and Belgium will probably do likewise
Venezuela has asked the United States TO
help her out Of her dilemma, and the good
offices OF this government have been
offered, thus far without avail. All the
European governments disclaim intention
Of permanently acquiring territory IN vio-
lation OF the Monroe doctrine, but are
taking steps TO enforce settlement OF long
standing claims. Venezuela has offered 10
arbitrato, but this does not satisfy her
creditors. A large American fleet under
Dewey is in the neighborhood OF the
trouble.
