rebels attacked that place stubborn
ly, and got inside the town, where
they were met by a thousand govern
ment troops under Gen. Velutini. Sc.
we're fighting lasted the whole day,
followed and ended il the disorderly
retreat of the rebels, several Of ting
latter being killed or wounded. Bull
let's repeatedly struck the steamer,
and the lives of her crew being in
danger, Capt. Hotf, her commander,
communicated with Gen. Nelutini, and
asked Tor protection. The general
replied that the Polaria must clear
out, as she had no right TO be there.
Her captain refused to leave the port,
and telegraphed to the German
cruiser Gazelle, Capt. Graforcola, at
La Guaira, asking for immediate pro-
lection. The Gazela arrived at Caru-
PIANO Sunday morning and protecte,d]
the Polaria while the latter proceed,
ed to take in cargo. This work was
completed on Monday night, and the
Polaria sailed under the protection
of the German cruiser, which also
left Carupano.
When the Polarja left Carupano
the Venezuelan government officials
were in fear of another and more Sc
rious attack on the place. Trade was
