tary of Agriculture Moore issued the
following public notice, today:
The board of agriculture of Great
Britain in consequence of the outbreak
Of foot and mouth disease in New Eng
land. has issued an order prohibiting

shire. Vermont, Massachusetts,, Rhode
Island and Connecticut. The British
board asks that public announcement
of this fact be made in this country .

ABOUT S2.o0o,0 900
Said to Be Gerrnany's Claim Against
Venezuela.

Perrin. Dec. 2.-The published state
ment that GermaHys claims against
Venezuela amount 10 900 is, the
correspondent Of The Associated Press
is officially informed, incorrect. While
the German government is not Vet
ready TO publish ;he details Of its de-
mands. persons. wto have seen the pa-
peTs. say the total is about $4,000 600.
President Castro represents to Ger
many that Venezuela has little credit
| abroad, that the country is Just emers-
ing from 2 civil war; during which
planting and Industry were partially
ruined and that. therefore. no matter
how much Venezuela may desire TO
satisfy Immediately the claims against
her, it is obviously Impossible. Hence
an agreement on the subject must pro-
vide for deferred payments. The se-Z-
ure of the custom house by depriving
the gov 5rnment Of an important means
10 administer the country would add to
the internal distress and disorder.
While President C2stros proposals
are not disclosed there Is reason 20 he
l!eve that they include the omission Of
bonds at a moderately high rate Of in
terest with some sort of d guarantee
that il the interest Of the installnents
of the principal are defaulted certain
Venezuela custom houses may be taken
over by Germany.
Nothing is known here Of the plans
Of Isaac y. Seligman Of New York. for
floating Venezuelan loan He has not
approached this government il the
matter.
There is no disposition here to pro
ceed with harsh measures towards
Venezuela if nlilder ones viii suffice &c
evact satisfaction. But the German
government IS fully committed TO the
intention 10 obtain ample session. The
claimants are constantly urging the
government u prass the collection Of
amounts due them.
