Mr.. Gould,s New Venture.

Kelsey Burr Gould has taken an in
terest in the business of w. p. Turner
& Co., on the Park at Bank street of
this city. The business will be run
under the name of Turner" with
Mr.. Gould in charge of the store as
manager Mr.. Gould is interesting
and original in his personality and is
very enthusiastic in his work. He has
shown his business capacity in many
ways and has taken his place among
the older and more conservative bust
ness men of Morristown although he
works along different lines. Starting
some two years ago in small Office on
South street he organized and built up
the business of The Valet so that now
it occupies whole building on De
Hart street and is doing a furnishing
business. Since he sold his interest in
that business his friends have been in
terested to know what She would take
up next. From a quiet spot on De-
Hart street he moves to the most
desirable location in town and to a
business where he will have lots Of
chance to show his ability and good
taste. The people of Morristown take
an active interest in the young bust
ness men who are progressive and
working hard for success along the
lines of strict integrity and honesty.
Mr.Gould puts character in his work,
as shown by the policy he has out
lined to the writer. He says, ~ want
the people of Morristown to get in the
habit of dropping in and consulting
me regarding the very latest things in
mems wear. will keep strictly up to
date and my advice will be worth hav-
ing. / do not want anyone to feel
that they have to buy because they
come in to see me. 1t does the bust
ness good to have people come in
whether they buy or not. 1t has al
ways been an absolute form with the
up-to-date merchant princes of New
York to expect customers to buy every
time they come in the store. Twill be
glad to see any one any time and my
advice will be worth the trouble of
coming in. Then, when they do buy,
only the very latest styles will be sold
to customer. This is a positive rule
that | will strictly adhere to. If a
customer prefers an old style he will
will be told there is something later as
far as style is concerned. / do not
want the people who do business with
me to feel that they have something
that has been in stock two or three
years sold to them. They may feel
sure it is new goods and in style.
Then when they do buy, if for any
reason they do not like their purchase,
| urgently request them to always re-
turn it. / must, if it is possible
thing, have satisfied customers. Then
if there is anything a Customer wants
that they find it difficult to secure or
any line of goods they desire, will get
them for them, even if it costs me
more than the amount of the sale.
Morristown is not a large place, but
the people know what they want and
/ can get it for them. "
These are just few starters, said
Mr.. Gould, but even these few with
courtesy, strict reliability and up-to-
dateness ought to win out.
All Mr.. Gould's friends wish him
success in his new field. 4O98

with regard to this matter to-day. the Presi-

The course pursued by the allied powers in
maintaining the blockade of La Guayra has
caused astonishment among the foreign resi-
dents of this city. When the Dutch steamer
Prns Wilem V arrived off La Guayra TO take
on board the European mails, the authorities
at La Guayra sent the mail out in small boat.
This boat vas stopped by the British cruiser
on blockade and the mail bags were taken on
board the warship. The postal clerks who were
in the small boat say the mail bags. notwith-
standing their protests were opened on board
the cruiser.
La Guayra Jan. 4.-The Dutch consul here
saw the captain of the British cruiser Tribune
yesterday, and secured permission for steamer
of the Dutch line to call off La Guayra on jan
,uary and take on board DR.. Van Leyden, the
Dutch Minister to Venezuela, who is in i'll
health.
Half the clerks employed in the custom house
here and all the members of the coast guard
service at La Guayra have been discharged
This means cutting off the revenue of sixty or
more families The La Guayra custom house
will be closed tomorrow. About eight hundred
stevedores are at present without employment,
and rioting is feared The government will
doubtless have to employ urgent measures to
maintain quiet.
The captain of the Tribune has sent a mes
sage to the prefect Of this port commencing the
behavior of the Venezuelan authorities up to
the present time but saying he would hold him
(the prefect) responsible for any injury to the
persons or property of British, German and
italian subjects.

GERMAN VIEWS OF THE DOCTRINE.
Criticism of the American Policy by Berlin
Writers.

Berlin. Jan. 4-The government is without in
formation regarding the landing of German ma
rines at Porto Cabello. Venezuela. The Foreign
Office says that If such landing occurred 1t must
certainly have been transient and regards the
reported seizure of the custom house at Porto
Cabelo by German marines canard.
Several newspapers to-day. In their yearly po-
liticaI reviews, devote much attention TO Ven
ezuela and the Monroe Doctrine. The "Vos-
sische Zeitung'' Independent LiberaD regards
Gernlany's proceedings against Venezuela as
entirely within the limits of international law.
Whoever has claim against another, says
this journal tries to collect 1t, whether they be
private individuals nations. If anybody dis
putes our right to compel payment of the Ven
ezuean claims must ask that person If he be
willing to pay the debt himself or give guar
antees therefor. Then the matter speedily could
be settled: but If this other person unwilling
to give such guarantees. his objections 10 not

trouble between Germany and Venezuela in a

of our claims but theJyhited States is unwili-

course that is deemed expedient."
The "vossische Zeitung'' refers to what it

can press. which declares that Germany has no
right under the Monroe Doctrine to take forcible
action in Venezuela, and that Germany has not
even recognized the Monroe Doctrine. THE lat

thereon.
