Indignation At Action OF European
Representativs ss-- Consider
the Affair Bluff.
CARACAS, Dec. s. The British min
lister, W. ID. Haggins and German
Charge DAfrairs. Won Pilgrim Baltazxi
left Caracas this afternoon for La
Guayra where Minister Haggard went
on board the British cruiser Retribution

been closed.
Yesterday afternoon the British min
ister and the German charge d'Affairs
stopped at the private residence Of
Foreign Minister Lopez Barralet. and
presented their separate demands, the
British demand being for a settlement
of claims and other matters arising out
of the last revolutions and the German
demand being for payment of the in
terest on German loans and other
claims. The demands are without any
specification as to the time given for an
answer but they are in the form of an
ultimatlim,
The ministers left Caracas without
previously notifying the Venezuelan
government, probably in order to avoid
any hostile demonstration.
Tho handing in Of the demand Of such
q nature at the private residence Of u
minister, forgetting all diplomatic rules
is believed In some quarters to be with
out precedent,
The actual situation Is ineomprehens-
lble here. Up to this morning no one
appeared to know pnything about the
Anglo-German projected demonstration
The foreign minister said he consider
ed the menace on the part of Germany
to be inadmissable ana that any threat
could be only "ballon desain and as for
England, said the minister she had no
grounds for aggrC ssion
The government has made no mill
tary preparations a. La Guayra. Ven
ezuelan citizens considered the threat
OF demonstration as bluff.

FOR HONORED DEAD
House Of Representatives Adopts
Resolutions Of Respect
and Adjourns.
PAYS REMARKABLE TRIBUTE
Third Instance In the History of
Congress Where an Ex-
Member Has Been
Extoiled.

WASHINGTON, Dec. s.--The house
today paid a remarkable tribute to the
memory Of ex-Speaker Thomas b. Reed
His death created profound impress
sion, and there was universal desire
among the members that the house
should show signal wark OF respect
70 his memory. For the house TO take
action on the death Of former mem
Der had only three precedents in its
history. namely on the occasions Of the
death OF Benton, Blaine and Alexander
Stephens, when the house adopted reso-
lutions and adjourned out OF respect to
their memories, 1t was decided to
follow these precedents in the case Of
Mr.. Reed.
The chaplain at the opening of the
session, paid feeling reference to the
death Of the ex-speaker. No business
was transacted beyond the formal
reading OF two messages from the Presi
dent and an arrangement to postpone
the special order for today, the Lon
don dock bill, until tomorrow. MIR.
Sherman OF New York then, amid pro-
found silence. arose, and in few feel
ing remarks offered the resolutions.
When the reading of the resolutions
had been concluded, Speaker Hender-
son asked Ii there was any objection to
the present consideration. The silence
remained unbroken. The resolutions
were then unanimously adopted and ac-
cordIngly. at 1915, the speaker declar-
ed the house adjourned out Of respect
to the memory of Mr., Reed.
Following are the resolutions:
Resolved, That the following min
ute be spread upon the record Of the

when fleets have assembled there is
scarcely time TO deal with bankers

have been suggested long ago and
would have been welcomed by both
Germany and ourselves, However,
