^Thr Vrncxurliui Situation.

That the ncccaKlty Bhtiuld arise for European powers to make a boetlle dtanonmration up*ln.it a sorervlgn state on this hemisphere, os to wbufe polltleal de*tlnlin the United States has In the promulgation of the Monroe doctrine assumed to have a certain oversight. is a matter of no small concern : to this nation. It has been repeatedly ; declared by this govern moot that It did ' "not propose to shelter under the Monroe doctrine South American and Cen-

tral American nations from the' just effects of their own misdeeds or fullurea to fuUlll^lnteraatlanal obllgnOons. This was reaffirmcd Ly~ i“ri«ldent Ttooecvelt In his late message In -these words: Jit behooves each one to maintain order within its own borders and to discharge Its Just obligations to foreigners." Still the situation In Veneatn- , cla. Where Great Britain add Germany seek by- combined force of arms to collect apparently Just debts. Is one to * excite apprehension and call for the exhibition of wise statesmanship and diplomacy da the part of our state do- ; pertinent The English and German claims are based partly on the destruction of property belonging to citizens of Germany and Great Britain and partly on the failure of Venezuela to make proper provision for the payment of Its nation-

al debts.

The liabilities of Venezuela, incurred ; under the influence of President Casj tro, are stated by the London Mall ! with greater specification th^n we have seen elsewhere. The chief “battle horse'' seems to bo a loon of 610.000.- - 000 negotiated In 1S9C and bearing In-' tercst at 5 per cent. This Is apparently a strictly public and government obligation, with no question about “guarantee.'* Two-thirds of this loan Is due to Germans, the rest to Britons and Frenchmen. The interest Is four years in arrears. Then there Is a German railway built at a “cost" of 615,000.000, or at least that is what the Germans charged and the Venezuelans agreed ^ th pay, of which the London Times says that the railway built with it has received “much the same treatment . With the English ones.” Apparently the only way In which the Germans and Britons thought that^ they could collect thne claims was the seizure and retention of the customs receipts of the port of La Gnayra. whlop President Castro resisted .with such force as was within his power. As the customs' receipts of La Gusyra for the last six months have averaged only about 000.000 bolivars, worth 20 cents each of our money. It will take (be creditors a rather long Wipe to recover the full amount of j- iflfeh flalm. It is even doubtful whether tro ourreut receipt# of the collector of In GiVyra. even should be. contrary to his Instincts and traditions, honestly turn them all In, would meet the Current expenses of the warships sent to collect them. While the landing of marines by a European power on the territory of an American state and the seizure of customs for legitimate debt arc perhaps not In violation of the Monroe doctrine, dearly the United States

SpcakliiB^of the Incident, the prttl dent of.the New ‘York AttRoclatloa For Improving the Condition of the Poor

T»1" condition which exist* Is not s problem of chsritjc,- but one of buslmes. we have had fewer demands for Aid 1 ihix winter than ever before. The whole question Is. How can the people, who have money and are willing to pay for It, *et the coal? The poor are hot asking for help. They are earning their wages. They or® able to buy cool, but if they are not supplied they are apt to be attacked with slckacs*. and then they will help The situation It Is Impel

:hcy will nead ■t serious, and •thing of

The conditions existing In New Y'ork ore not exceptional, but prevail In a greater or less degree tn all the large cities which place main dependence for fuel on hard cool. Although six weeks have passed .since the mining of anthracite was resumed, with a promise of the operators that the output should be sufficient to wholly relieve the stringency and place on the markets all the fuel that everybody would need, there now aw>ears almost as much danger of a r“%ylnt6r cool famine as there was In The Tate autumn. If mining has been prosecuted ou a scale which the public has been led to believe, where U the cool? Why Is It not In the markets? With the mercury tn the neighborhood of the zero mark, the people want cool, nod want It badly. They hare the money and are willing to pay for It even at a price in excess of that promised by the cool producers. It might be pertinent for the arbitration commission In connect!os with the task it has already In hand or some other body of equally competent Jurisdiction to Institute an Inquiry why there should still exist a cool shortage amounting in many sections of the country to on actual cool famlntJilf^woeka after resumption of production tn promised abundance.

Football and Casualties. A summary of the casualties of the football season Just closed shows that there were fifteen deaths and 112 per sons seriously injured—oil this to make a collegiate holiday season. When nil Is sold that can be In favor of the manly qualities of the sport and.the impetus It has given to college athletics, which. It Is freely admitted, has been of great service in developing the physical side of the college student, the fact remains that the price paid for the benefits conferred Is too high. B may require blood to develop a healthful and vigorous youth and a Strenuous nation, but at least an effort should be made to reduce' the talc of blood to the lowest possible limit. No professional sport with such a record of deaths and kiJuries would be tolerated. The salvation of football hitherto has been that It Is an amateur game, where honor and not money la the reward. Bot with all the fine gualitltfi It possesses. It cannot endure with many more such records as have been made this year. Public opinion vfill rel-olt against the sacrifices It requires unless some means can be found of making It leas dangerous. For the sake of preserving the sport, if for no other reason, football cntlinslnsts mnst dev ise some radkal pefanua In the conduct of the game.

A financial institution of Cape May which ought to be encouraged by the public is the first National Bank, which established only eigjitqen months ago, but which has-growngradually and

healthfully, until to-day it has'deposits aggregating five times, the same of one

ago. It has passed the critical period through which every new financial institution goes after its launching. and now has has its balance upon it* creditilcle. It was modestly capitalized at 625,000,

plus and undivided profits. It is unlike a trust company, and is backed and supervised by the United States Treas-

ury Department. The last inspection by a national bank examiner was made

about three weeks ago, and he gave to his superiors at IJ ashington a splendid statement of the growing condition of the bank. It allpws three per centum interest on account* deposited os sav-

ing funds.

The capital of the bank is entirely local and m. the hands of people of our community, and the only bank here in such a condition. It was the first na-

onal bank organized in the county.
