BREAK IS NOW COMPLETE
Our Relations With Venezuela
Wholly Severed.

New York, July 6.-The break In
diplomatic relations between the Unit
ed States and Venezuela, which result
ed In the withdrawal Of Jacob Sleeper,
the American charge d'affaires, from
the Venezuelan capital, is far more
complete than was at first generally
believed. The full text of diplomatic
notes which passed between Mr..
Sleeper and DR.. Jose de Jesus Paul,
the Venezuelan minister of foreign af-
fairs, subsequent to the withdrawal of
Mr.. Sleeper, indicates that not only
are the friendly relations interrupted,
but completely severed.
In his letter notifying the foreign
Minister of his intention to leave the
Venezuelan capital Mr. Sleeper wrote
that in view of the Venezuelan gov
ernment's persistent refusal to give
redress "for the governmental action
by which all American interests have
been destroyed or confis Gated" and in
view of the tone and character of the
communications received from the
Venezuelan government" he believed
that "the further presence in Caracas
of diplomatic representative of the
United States subserved no useful pur-
pose"
DR.. Paul's reply to this communica-
ton was made in the same tone which
characterized previous communica-
lions made to the American represen-
tative. 1t declared that President
Roosevelt had persisted in asking re-
dress for American interests and in
dividuals without any justice and
right and that Venezuela is not
blameable if it does not permit the
nation to be "wrested of it's rights"
A request for ''safe conduct" made in
Mr.. Sleeper's letter is refused on the
ground that as no state of war exists
the Venezuelan government did not
consider it necessary or fit to grant it.

PANIC OCCURS IN A STORE
Clerks and Shoppers Make 4 Wild
= Rush for the Exits When the
Alarm is Sounded,

Cleveland, O., July 4-Seven per
sons were killed, at least two others
were fatally injured and fully thirty
more were severely hurt as the result
of fire in S. S. Kresge's Five and
Ten Cent store on Ontario street. Fol-
lowing is list of the dead:
Emma Schumacher, fioorwalker;
Marie Wagner, clerk; Anna Trefall,
clerk; F'rieda Trefall, clerk: Elizabeth
Rels, clerk; Mary Hughes, shopper;
James L. Parker, four years old.
The fire followed an explosion of
fireworks on display In the store.
Opinions differ as to the exact cause
of the explosion. A woman who was at
the fireworks counter said the stock
was ignited by sparks from a device
which was being demonstrated to her
by clerk. Fire Chief Wallace and
the store manager were of the opinion
that the pieces were ignited by an arc
light.
Immediately following the explosion
an alarm Of fire was sounded and a
panic seized the hundreds of clerks
and shoppers. A mad rush was made
for the doors and windows. Many
jumped from the second and third
floor windows.
Hundreds of persons were near, or
in front of the store at the time of the
explosion. Terrified shoppers rushed
out Of the front door to the sidewalk,
women and girls appeared in the up
per windows, shouting and pleading
for help. Men upon the sidewalk told
them to wait until the firemen ar
rived with their ladders. Hysterical
with fright, some did not wait, but
hurled themselves to the sidewalk. In
this manner many were severely in
Jured. When one or two had thus
faced death, 1t stampeded the others
on the upper window lodges and they
too, followed.

rivals and are locating from ten to tif
teen miles south of Akron. They come

plies and seem to be of the sturdy and
