VENEZUELAN BLOCKADE.
Official Proclamation Gazetted and Be-
comes Effective Today.
London, Dec. 20.—Tho olllclal procla
mation of the blockade of Venezuelan
Ports was gazetted this nlbrnlng, and
becomes effective today.
The text of the proclamation Is os
follows: -j
" Foreign Office, Dec. 20, 1002: *It
is hereby notified that its tho United
States of Venezuela have failed to
comply with the demands of his maj
esty’s government, a blockade by his
majesty’s naval forces of the ports of
LaGuayra, Cairenoyo Gaentz and Caru-
pano and the mouths of the Orinoco
is declared and such a blockade will
bo effectively maintained from and af
ter Dec. 20, subject to the allowance
Df the following days of grace:
"For vessels sailing before the date
of this notification from West Indian
ports nnd ports on the east coast of
the continent of America. 10 days f.r
steamers and 20 Cijc far sailing ves
sels.
'From all other ports 20 days for
steamers and 40 days for sailing ves
sels.
'For vessels lying In the ports now
declared to be blockaded, 15 days.
“Vessels which attempt the block
ade will render themselves liable to
all measures authorized by tho law of
nations and by the respective treat
ies between his majesty and the dlf-
ferent neutral powers.”
New York. Dec. 19.—Convinced tliai
something must be done to end the
coal famine, Mayor Low has Bent let
tors to officials of tho different coal
carrying roads asking for facts con
cernlng the situation. The mayoi
refused to enter Into details, but was
hopeful something- beneficial to the
public wouldi result from his action.
“I have written to the railroads in
an unofficial capacity?' said Mr. Low.
“I have been quietly investigating the
etato of affairs for some time, and I
thought It advisable to write to cer
tain persons for a few facts. In a
few days I shall know more about
tho true condition of the coal supply
In all parts of the city."
Itjs likely the mayor will head a
movement to supply tho city with coal,
If he finally decides the condition is
serious enough to warrant official in
terference. Ho had a conference on
the question with borough president
Cantor, who said that there was a
strong'llkelihood of action being tak
en In a few days.
