GERMAN THREAT TO lombard.
Affront at Maracaibo-Castro Retakes
CITY of Barquisimeto.


LONDON, December 31.-A dispatch to
dated yesterday, says:
1.-THE postmaster Of Maracaibo. Venezuela,
having detained correspondence belonging
to German merchants, the German cruiser
Fake threatens in consequence to lombard
tie town."
A dispatch from Caracas yesterday says:
ing. At o'clock this afternoon Minister
Bowen called upon the president and COM
municated to him the recommendation that
the issues between Venezuela and the
allies be taken to the international peace
court at The Hague. Venezuela's answer
will be received tomorrow morning at IL
O clock.
The victory gained by the government at
Barquisimeto argues for President Castro's
continuance in power.
Barquisimeto, capital of the state of Lara,
which for some time past has been in the
possession of the Venezuelan revolutionists,
has been recaptured by government forces.
The towns of San Carlos and Tinaqullo
have alss been reoccupied by the govern
ment. 8 vi
The. revcIuiion.sts at Barquisimeto were
under ,tie sscuInmand Of Generals Solagnie
and Penaloza. They evacuated the town,
after losing a12 men killed and 325 wounded.
There was hard fighting in the streets and
suburbs bf Barquisimeto for two days. The
gcyernment.- forces were commanded by
General Cerferino Castillo.
It now transpires that President Cas-
tro's recent visit to La Victoria was not of
Il social nature, as reported here. but for
the purpose o. conducting personally by
telegraph the operations Of his forces at
Barqu,sinieto. This victory for the govern
ment appe ar to be a direct result Of the
Presidents initiative. 1t has been a most
severe blow fer the revolutionists.
United states Minister Bowen has re-
ceived info. nation that the Dutch steamer
Prins Maurits has entered certain Vene-
zuelan ports bacckaded by the British fleet
and discharged her cargo there. Special
permission for the Dutch steamer to do
this was obtained from Commodore Mont
gomerie Ct the British cruiser Charybdis.
The Italian cruiser Giovanni Bausan or
dered the Trims sMaurits away from port.
but Commodore Mentgomerie directed that
she continue to discharge her cargo.
In Caracas thls Is considered to be dis
crimina ton against American steamers, and
the British commcdore's action has been
criticised.

"a Poor Relation"

John Kellerd, well known to dru-
matte fame, was once playing an en-
gagement with the late Sol Smith Rus
sell In THE Tale of Coat" In the
play kellerd had occasion to wear a
handsome frock coat which for its cloth
and cut was the admiration of the COM
pany, including the star-manager.
Soon afterward Russell made q re-
vival of "A Poor Relation" and about
that time occurred the death Of Bouci-
cault, the writer Russell was invited
TO be one of the pallbearers at the fu-
neral, and as he happened not to have
a suitable coat for the occasion with
him, and there was not sufficient time
TO have one made, he sent a note to KEEL
lerd explaining his need and asking for
the use of his frock coat. A postscript
TO the request read: "By the way, you
needn't mention the fact that I'm wear
ing your coat"
Kellerd's coat served its purpose. and
was returned to the owner the follow
ing day with quaint note of thanks.
which ended: And please don't tell
the Tale of your Coat. (Signed) Sol
Smith Russell-A Poor Relation
