day to 20 per cent and very large
sums were lent attha t rate. AS a
consequence there was liquidation or

the outpouring of liquidation there
was buying of an impressive and
substantial character, so that the

The substantial recovery in the
market was due TO the good effect OF
the relief afforded to the money
market by the break in sterling ex-
change. The late rush in the money
rate up TO 25 per cent was not re-

BIG STICK TO BE SHAKEN.
Senators Hear UItimatum Has Beer
Sent to Venezuela.

WASHINGTON, March 14.-While
the state department will not give any
currency to the rumor, several United
States senators seem to have good in
feet that this government practically
has sent an ultimatum to Venezuela,
couched, of course, in police language,
but nevertheless pertinent, inasmuch
as the southern republic has been in
formed it must forthwith meet it's obli-
cations, not only to foreign nations,
but to settle for once and all the as
phalt cases in which American citi-
zens are interested.
A great battleship squadron and
cruiser division has been gathered in
the south. Nearly all the battleships
are within two days sail of Venezuela.
They are now in Cuban waters and
number the Kearsarge, Alabama, Illi-
nois, Iowa, Kentucky, Maine, Massa-
chusetts and Missouri, in command of
Rear Admiral Barker. Attached to his
squadron is a cruiser division in COM
mand of Captain Harrison Colby, COM
prising the Olympia, Brooklyn, Cleve-
land and Des Moines.
In addition there is the Caribbean
squadron of cruisers in command of
Rear Admiral Sigsbee. He mas the
Newark, Castine, Chattanooga, Denver,
Detroit, Dixie, Newport and Tacoma.
If any necessity should arise the coast
squadron under Rear Admiral Sands,
comprising four warships, is near
Guantanamo, Cuba, ready for any
emergency that may arise in the pres
ent complication.
1t is not definitely known here just
what form the protest by our govern
ment is to take. but there seems to be
no doubt that every care has been
taken to have it effective and prevent
any similar trouble in the future.
Many senators expressed themselves
as heartily in favor of the "big stock"
so called in this case.
