Caracas, Feb. 23.-The last army

Rolando recently advanced to within
four hours march of Caracas. The
correspondent Of the Associated Press
yesterday visited the advance guard,
camped at Esperanza, and about rs
minutes march from the advance
post of the government forces. The
revolutionists presented a sad spec
tacle, being almost naked and prac-
tically without provisions. General
Rolando is still at Guarenas with
about 1900 men.
1t was reported yesterday among
the re~volutionists that they were pre-
pairing to attack the government
troops but no movement was made.

SHIPS HELD
GERMANY MAKES UNUSUAL DE-
MAND ON MR.. BOWEN.
Negotiations for Settlements With
France and Other Peace Pow.
ers Progressing.

Washington, Feb. 23.-The German
government, through it's representa-
tive, Baron Won S%ternberg, has made
a request of Mr. Bowen for the imme-
diate payment of the $4,000 which it
was stipulated in the protocol signed
on February 10, should be paid within
80 days from that date, a. a prelim-
mary to the raising of the blockade
against the Venezuelan ports and the
agreements to send the question of
preferential treatment of the blockad-
ing nations to The Hague for determ-
nation.
Mr.. Bowen promptly declined to &C
cede to the request, but informed
Baron Sternberg thatas provided In
the protocol, the money would be
paid to the German representatives at
Caracas 80 days from February 10,
which would be on March IL.
The reason that animated the Ger
man government in making the re-
quest is not disclosed here, nor is
Mr.. Bowen aware of it. The matter,
however, has. some significance, per-
haps, in view of the fact that ships
taken by the Germans during the
blockade have not yet been returned
to Venezuela.
During the day Minister Bowen had
calls from the French ambassador, M.
Jusserand; the Spanish minister,
Senior Ojeda, and the Belgian minis
ter, Baron Moncheur, in regard to the
protocols that are in preparation for
the settlement of the claims OF the
citizens of their countries against
Venezuela
Rough drafts of these instruments
are already on their way by mail tc
the European governments, but there
are certain provisions regarding them
about which the ENJOYS desired te
consult Mr.. Bowen.
The protocols are expected to reacf
their destinations the latter part o.
this week, pending which no ina
steps for their joint signature cal
