The" Caracas newspaper “Ell Universal” has been temporarily suppressed. • The trouble started when a parade of 400 students marched shouting “Down with the tyrant Gomez!” The President's brother, Eusticin© Gomez, seized control of the army and police and dispersed the meetings with machine guns. The French Minister, who attempted to mediate, was ordered to leave the country.
