METHOD QUESTIONED.
Liberals Not Satisfied With Chamber.
lain's Tariff Educational Scheme.

London. July 23-The educational
campaign on the tariff question on
which Colonial Secretary Cham
herlain has vigorously launched
by means of leaflets and circulars
issued under his supervision though not
bearing his name, came in for serious
criticism in the House of Lords, this
afternoon. Earl Spencer, the Liberal
leader in that House, complained that
Mr.. Chamberlain was practically vio-
iating the government agreement
namely that the fiscal discussion should
be postponed until October. He saiG
the distribution of such literature look
ed on it's face as though the government
had taken up Mr.. Chamberlain's views
Earl Spencer added that if Mr.
Chamberlain remained in the cabinet
it would be almost impossible to dis
sociate his views from the policy OF
the government as a whole.
The Duke of Devonshire, lord presi-
dent of the council, and Conservative
leader n the House, retorted that while
he gathered from the remarks that the
premier ought to tell Mr. Chamberlain
to resign, he feared this was rather ar
Illogical procedure, since though the
government had by no means yet
adopted the views of the colonial secre.
tary, the governments investigation SC
far as 1t had proceeded, had convinced
the premier and his colleagues that Mr.

cal policy was well founded and thai
| changes ought to be effected.
Addressing the Primrose League at a

Premier Balfour warmly defended Co.
lonial Secretary Chamberlain against
unreasonable attacks because he had
given, as he had the right to
do, expressions to views of the
colonies on the fiscal question. No
man, Mr.. Balfour said, had a better
opportunity than Mr.. Chamberlain of
knowing their views.

SILENCE OF DEATH.
Over Ciudad Bolivar After
Capture by Regulars.
Gomez Says: Resistance at Capitol
Was Worthy Of Better Cause"
Each Yard of Rampant Covered With
Dead and Dying.

Soledad, Vez., July 21.-(9 A. NJ. by
boat from Ciudad Bolivar)-Ciudad
Bolivar was captured, at II o'clock last
night, after So hours of a desperate
struggle and horrible carnage during
which great courage was shown on
both sides. The jail and the capitol
were the centers of the most severe
fighting and many men were killed or
wounded there. When those places
were captured only a block behind the
capitol remained to be taken. At mid
night the fusilade ceased and the ST.
lence of death reigned all the rest of
the night over Ciudad Bolivar. No liv-
ing persons were then to be seen in the
streets.
At o'clock in the morning the cor
respondent of The Associated Press fol-
lowed Gen. Rivas, the commander of
the government troops, who met Gen.
Gomez. the Venezuelan commander-in-
chief, near the capitol and confirmed the
announcemnt that the capitol, the Jail
and all the rest Of the city were in the
hands Of the government soldiers.
Gen. Gomez informed the correspond
ent that the resistance at the capitol
had been of nature worthy of a better
cause, that each yard of rampant was
covered with dead, and that General
Nicolas Rolando, the last representa-
tive of the revolution, and his two lieu
tenants, Generals Pablo and Guisman,
and Gen. Francisco Vasquez had been
taken prisoners.
No adequate idea can be cabled of the
scene which Ciudad Bolivar presents.
1t appears to have been swept by a cy-
clone, accompanied by conf1agration.
