AGAINST VENEZUELA.
Great Britain and Germany Are Con-
sidering Reprisals.

London Nov. 22.-Great Britain is
contemplating serious reprisals against
Venezuela. The Associated Press is
also notified that Great Britain is act
ing with Germany in the present state
of affairs in Venezuela. Whether the
contemplated action will take the form
of a jO4pt naval demonstration, accom-
panied by or following the severance
of diplomatic relations, is a matter
being discussed in Berlin and London.
There is reason to believe that the
British government has been either Of
ficially or otherwise informed that the
United States will not intervene in any
demonstration having the object of
protecting the property rights of
British citizens or their interests in
Venezuela. The reports that Ger
many and Great Britain have been
urging Minister Bowen at Caracas to
join in the combination are discredit-
ed here. 1t is pointed out that both
Berlin and London have a thorough
understanding with Washington re-
garding the main features of the pol
in. no way encroacheS on the Monroe
doctrine.
A foreign official said: 1--WE have
received absolutely no satisfaction.
The Venezuelans appear absolutely
hopeless. We see nothing for it but
the most serious measures"
The presence of a German squadron
in the Caribbean Sea, it is believed,
may be connected with some joint ac-
ton by Germany and Great Britain.

LOOKS LIKE MURDER
UGLY ASPECT OF THE AFFAIR AT
GUATEMALA CITY.
SEEMINGLY IN COLD BLOOD
HUNTER SHOT FITZGERALD FROM
THE REAR.

RepOdt From DIR. Hunter, the Minis
ter, Is Favorable to His son-Says
Fitzgerald Struck Godfrey and
Snapped n Pistol ut Him-Account
From Guatemala City Gives an En-
tirely Different VersiOn-Says Fitz-
gerald Had no Chance TO Defend
Himself.
Washington, Nov. 22.-The State De-
partment to-day received reports from
DR.. Hunter. minister at Guatemala
City, and Consul General McNally at
the same place regarding the case of
Godfrey Hunter, Jr., and Secretary
Bailey of the American legation there,
who were parties to the shooting af-
fray resulting in the death of William
Fitzgerald yesterday.
Mr. McNally's latest advice gives the
affair the aspect of a shocking and
cold-blooded murder, making 1t appear
that Secretary Bailey was a party to
the crime, holding up Fitzgerald with
a revolver in front, while Hunter shot
the man from behind.
Minister Hunters statement is a fiat
contradiction of this report. He says
that his son and Secretary Bailey
while sitting on a bench in a public
park were attacked by Fitzgerald, who
struck young Hunter and snapped a
pistol, which failed to explode. Hunter
thereupon shot and killed him. The
existence of conspiracy between MEM
bers of the American colony, includ-
ing Consul General McNally, is charged
by DR.. Hunter. 1t is known here that
a bitter personal feud had existed for
several years between DR.. Hunter and
Mr.. McEally.
The State Department will wait to
hear from the Guatemalan government
before taking action in the matter.
For Guatemala to Act.
The department takes the ground
that if the Guatemalan law has been
violated in the killing of Fitzgerald, it
is for the Guatemalan government to
take the initiative in the prosecution
of any guilty parties. If the Guate-
malan authorities conclude that Hun
ter and Bailey are liable to punish
ment under their laws, they
undoubtedly will make application
to the State Department for the sur
render of the men.
1t is said the department will not
allow itself to be used to shelter any
| guilty person, and it has been settled
that it has the right to waive any dip
lomatic immunities. 1t is stated III
this connection that, If Hunter and
Bailey are exempt from the operation
of Guatemalan law, they will go UNI
punished, even If guilty, because they
cannot be tried In the United States
for an offense committed in a foreign
country, even though the victim was
an American citizen.
One of the statements attributed TO
McNally relative to the killing is that
Fitzgerald had just purchased new
revolver and at the invitation of
Bailey he was exhibiting it to the
latter, when Hunter. who stepped In
his rear fired into his back.

TINT Was What supposed Assassin
Wanted of Roosevelt.
Philadelphia. Nov. 22.-Some excite
ment was caused this afternoon just
after President Roosevelt left the res
idence of ex-Postmaster General Smith
for the reception at Mr. Stoteburys.
The carriage containing the Presi-
dent and Secretary Cortelyou had just
started, flanked on either side by a
squadron of the Philadelphia City
Troop. A secret service man was on
the box of the carriage. The roped off
sidewalks were packed on either side
for several blocks. Suddenly. as the
Presidents carriage arrived opposite,
a man pushed his way through the
crowd, darted under the rope and rush
ed straight for the carriage. The secret
service man saw him coming and
shouted to the police, Keep that man
back" At the same time Secretary
Cortelyou. who is ever alert upon such
occasions, caught a glimpse of him
and springing up leaned far over to
protect the President from possible
harm. The man got by the mounted
guards, but as it turned out, he meant
no mischief.
II only wanted to shake the Pres
ident's hand" said he, appealingly, to
Secretary Cortelyou, extending an open
palm. Secretary Cortelyou thereupon
sunk back into his seat and the Pres
ident gave the man a friendly hand
shake
Meantime the carriage had stopped
and mounted police and troopers had
formed a close Gordon around it, But in
the confusion a negro had also reached
the carriage. He grasped the Presi-
dents hand and coZered it with kisses.
The excitement caused by the Incl
dent subsidized in an instant and the
procession proceeded.

R0BBER GOT $4,000.
Bold Theft of Mail Was Perpetrnted
in Chicago.

Chicago. Nov. 22.-The Chicago post
office was the victim tonight of one
of the most daring robberies that has
ever been perpetrated In this city. Ten
thousand dollars is the amount believed
to have been secured by the robber,
who made his escape without leaving
any clue to his identity.
Two mail sacks, containing the mon
ey, which had just been picked up
from two of the downtown sub-sta-
tons, were left in an unprotected
wagon in front of the Masonic Tenn
pie, while the mail carrier went into
the building to gather mail that had
accumulated there. The carrier was
gone but a moment, and when he re-
turned his horse and wagon had dis

While the carrier was in the build
ing the robber, who evidently had been
waiting his opportunity, jumped into
the rig and drove away.
The street was full of people at the
time, but no one seems to have no.
ticed the thief. No trace of the rob-
Der has been secured. Both the mail
bags were foil of registered letters.
