VENEZUELAN BLOCKADE OFF.
Thousands Marched In the Streets. villa
~ Celebrating the Event.

j. Celebrating the Event.
La Guayra, venezucla.-The block.
ade of the allies was officially raised.
and the people wildly celebrated the
event. Thousands marched In the
streets. singing and holding high carni.
val. The cries in opposition to the a.
lies were frequent. but any reference
to the United States was received with
great enthusiasm.
The first information that the city
had of the end OF the blockade was
when an officer came ashore from the
British warship Tribune with the an
nouncament that the ship would leave
here for Trinidad In a few hours. The
newr spread like wlldfire. and before
the officer was ready to return to the
ship an immense crowd had gathered
around the spot where helanded When
lie was rowed away to the Tribune the
people cheered frantically. although
they refrained from making any hos

something might happen to prevent
the. lifting Of the blockade. When her
huh was seen sinking below the horl'
m. however. tine last doubt was dis
pelled. and the entire populace imme.
dlately gave itself over to rejoicing.
Bonfires were built In the streets to
make bright the night. and flags were
displcy ed from all the public buildings.
All business was suspended.

They therefore procured a boat,

boat. but fell short In the water. They
determined to try again. but did not
want to miss a second time. and so
they brought the boat to the very spot
where the first shot had fallen and
anchored II there.
Then they fired. and to their IN.
bounded JOY the shot went clean
through the vessel. Evidently Il never
occurred to them that they could have
