ACTION AGAINST VENEIUELA.
Premier Balfour Says British Govern-
ment Has No Other Choice.
LIVERPOOL. Feb. ill—Premier Bal-
four, in the course of a speech at a
luncheon given by the Conservative
Club here today declared that the Brit-
ish government had no choice but to
take action against Venezuela The
ministers had shown no undutI haste
no greed for money and no inhumani-
ty. The government of the United
States had been taken into confidence
of ills Majesty a government at every
stage of the proceedings. The Mon
Ioc doctrine had no enemies in this
icountry. it would be a great gain to
civilization if the United States would
.more actively concern itself with ur-
rangements to prevent me constantly
recurring dimcuitles between the Sun
opean powers and the South American
governments by getting the latter. to
observe the principles of international
courtesy.
The premier said further that there
was- no ground for Lord Roseberry' a
,criticism with respect to British rela-
tions with either the United States or
Ge rmany. Some arrangement with
the lattcrIfor point operations was the
most reasonable step possible for en
forcing their several claims. Mr. ilai
four ridiculed the suggestion that the
alliance with Germany over Venezue
in was settled at. the time of Emperor
William‘s visit to King Edward at
Sandrigham. He declared that the
whole story was a mare nest. inter-
; national animosltica. said the premier.
‘were a great source of international
weakness. Great Britain was suppos
ed to be greatly disliked on the conti-
nent but no country was stronger for
disliklng Great Britain or showrng ani
mosity. Nor would Great Britain be
strengthened by harboring animosity.
if the peace of Europe was to be pre-
served and the cause of civilization go
forward without fatal shocks it must be
by the increasing use of ctr—operation
between the European powers. The
IBalkau states are now giving anxiety
and the question could only be solved
by common action upon the part of thv
great civilized powers. European corr-
(iFl‘i was clumsy but it was better than
isolated action. Mr. Balfour implored
all those who had any command ovm
the sources of piibiic opinion to refrain
from indulging in the easy task of em

and creating jealousies. so easily form-
