Venezuela SHOWS TEMPER
SEVERANCE OF DIPLOMATIC RE.
LATioNS 10 EXPECTED AT AL
MOST ANY HOUR.
Relations Long strained-South Amer
lean Republics Angry Protest over
British Occupation of Island Makes
Trouble Acute.

London, Sept. 23.-Dipomatic rcla-
tions between Great Britain and Vene.
zuela are on the verge of being sever
ed.
Any day, almost any hour, may
bring the announcement that the Brit
ish Minister at Caracas has received
his passport. with corresponding ac-
tative in London.
The cause of the crisis does not
seem 10 be altogether confined to any
particular incident, but consists in
various differences which eliminated
In Venezuela assuming such an angry
attitude regarding the hosting OF
British flag over PalOs (Goose) Island
as to leave Downing street fully i'm
pressed with the belief that the Nene-
zuelan Government intends to force
matters TO a crucial issue.
That a diplomatic rupture would re-
suit in hostiIitics is a contingency
thus far scarcely contemplated.
The present diplomatic relations are
so strained that, to quote a responsible
British official, il would make really
very little difference if the fact be-
came public property by the absence
OF the diplomatic representatives from
Caracas and London.
The view of the Foreign Office is
that affairs have reached stage
where it Is impossible to deal salts
factorily with Venezuela in any matter
which may come mp.
In proof of this contention the For
eign Office instances the report of the
United States Minister at Caracas, Her
bert w. Bowen. announcing that the
Venezuelan Government had protested
against the British flag being raised
over Palos (GOCsc) Island, over which
the Venezuelan Government claimed
sovereignty.
According to the British Govern
ments understanding, Goose Island
belongs TO Great Britain just as much
as Trinidad.
An exceptionally prominent official
said this evening:
"Thc chief grievance appears to he
the allegation that the British Govern
ment is aiding the revolutionary army.
at is needless to say that is perfect
~ baseless.
1--WE only wish the United States
would take over the whole country.
and then, perhaps, we could get some
peace"

rights in that narrow strip.
If the lesson has been lost else
where, it has had its effect, accord

American countries, and the Govern
ment is willing that there should be
thorough understanding among its
