THE VENEZUELA MIDDLE.
Diplomatic Relations With France
Have Been Broken of.

Washington.--All diplomatic rela-
tions between Venezuela and France
are broken off, it is said at the state
department and, although it is stated
no formal or official information to

volve the early departure from Ven
ezuela of M. Taigny, the French rep
resentative there, and from France
of M. Maubourguet, the Venezuelan
agent at Paris. The officials here are
awaiting the turn of events with keen
interest, although it is expressly stat.

next step that France will take is yet
to be received. In the event that the
request is made by France it is stat
ed permission will be cabled to Min

IT always comes out that when
a dangerous character breaks
out in some community and does
some terrible deed that he is an
escaped convict, either from
some convict camp or the peni-
teHtiary. This leads to the con-
clusior that such authorities are
rather careless about retaining
notorious prisoners. Taken with
tie failures of conviction for
crimes of the ordinary criminals
the number that escape after
they have been sentenced, there
are few criminals that get JUS
tice at the hands iof the court.
This causes people to lose respect
for an authority that allows its
prisoners to escape and commit
other 'crimes. and people that
see such are easier excited to
to riotous acts.
