DUTCH WILL NOT'
INSIST ON WAR
Decide to Avoid Taking Of
fensive Unless Compelled
to Do So.
AWAIT DE REUS' RETURN
Cabinet at The Hague Maps Out
General Plan of Procedure Hos
tile Preparations in Naval
Dockyards Continue.
THE HAGUE. Aug. 19. After a nine
hours' session, during which the dispute
between The Netherlands and Venezuela
was canvassed exhaustively in all its
phases, the Cabinet dispersed shortly
after midnight last night, and Minister
of Foreign Affairs Van Swtnderen pro
ceeded to the royal chateau at Het To.
to acquaint Queen Wllhelmina with the
result of the council.
Tbe terms of The Netherlands answer
to the letter of President Castro, of Vene
zuela, were fully discussed, and It is un
derstood that the actuai trxt as well as
the broad linea at action, drawn up to
meet any possible eventualities, were
agreed upon.
In diplomatic circles here the view is
entertained tb,at the present difficulty be
tween Holland and Venezuela Is not of a
nature to be settled by arbitration, and
in explanation it is pointed out that the
dispute is not of a private commercial
character, like the difficulties that have
arisen between Venezuela, Germany and
America.
National Honor Wounded.
In these cases the governments in ques
tion sought satisfaction tor claims, but
Holland has no claim against Venezuela.
It is maintained that the present question
is rather one of sovereignty and national
honor, matters which are not so suscepti
ble of solution by arbitration.
The Netherlands government is inclined
for the present to adopt a waiting atti
tude, but it is ready to take energetic
steps whenever the developments from
the situation demand. It Is agreed to
push all necessary preparations in order
to be ready to support an ultimatum,
should it be decided to forward one to
President Castro. Work will be rushed
night and day at the naval dockyards to
complete the preparations needed by the
warships, so that they will be In readi
ness to reinforce the vessels now in the
Caribbean by the end of next month.
Seek Pacific Solution.
In the meanwhile every effort will be
made to find a pacific solution of the dis
pute, and especially in view of the fact
that Queen Wllhelmina is opposed to re
sorting to war until all other methods
and avenues have been tried. The Neth
erlands Cabinet, although it has outlined
tentatively a general plan of procedure,
has decided to await the arrival of M. de
Reus, the Minister, who was expelled by
President Castro, before coming to a def
inite conclusion, and it will not take the
offensive unless compelled to do so by
Venezuela.
In the event of warlike measures it Is
understood there will first be a naval
demonstration of La Guayra. Subsequent
action will depend upon the result of this
. course. M. de Reus is expected here
about August 24.
FRENCH INTERESTS NEGLECTED
Castro Forbids Brazilian Minister to
Care for Them.
CARACAS, Aug. 17 (Via Wlllemstad,
Aug. 19). A sensation has been caused In
diplomatic circles by the refusal of Pres
ident Castro to permit the Brazilian min
ister to take charge of French interests
in Venezuela, although Dr. Jose Paul,
the Venezuelan minister of foreign af
fairs, originally agreed to this arrange
ment. As a consequence of the attitude
of President Castro, the foreign minister
fcaa indited a second note to the effect
that the government now refuses to ac
cede to this arrangement because the dis
pute between Venezuela and France bears
v close relation to Venezuela's dispute
with the United States, end the proposed
arrangemeiu would therefore endanger
the continuance of friendly relations with
Brazil.
The French Interests are necessarily
being neglected and many month's in
stallments due to French claimants are
till uncollected. It Is very unlikely in
view of the present state of affairs that
President Castro will permit the repre
sentative of any foreign country to take
the French Interests In hand.
President Castro left today for a trip
to Barquisimeto, embarking on the Ven
ezuelan gunboat Cabello. The president
Invited the British minister to accompany
him. which Is believed to be significant In
View of the present crisis.
CREEL IS HIGHLY PLEASED
Praises United States for Guarding
y , . ; Mexican Border.
WASHINGTON. Aug. 19. Having
successfully accomplished the mission
which caused 'his hurried return to
this country from Mexico several
weeks ago. at the time of the revolu
tionists' activity on the Mexican bor
der, Senor Enrique C. Creel, the Mex
ican Ambassador, will leave next Fri
day for Chihuahua. Through the
prompt action of the United States
Government in sending troops to pa
trol the border, quiet has been corn
pletely restored, and Mexico is no
longer threatened by outlaws who
make this country their haven of ref
uge. Senor Creel was elected Governor of
the State of Chihuahua while serving
as Ambassador to this country, and
was permitted to hold both offices, al
though residing in Washington. " It
was while on his way to Chihuahua
after his election that the outbreak
occurred, and he was compelled to
hasten back to Washington to look
after the Interests of his .country.
"I am highly pleased with the re
sult of my mission." said Senor Creel
today to the Associated Press. "I am
very well satisned with the prompt
action of the United States in sending
troops to the border to assist my
country In restoring and preserving
order. I do not believe there will be
any further trouble."
Senor Creel said he possibly would
return to Washington late in the Fall.

PARKER LEAVES FOB SOUND
GREATLY ENJOYS TRIP UP CO
LUMBIA RIVER.
New York Jurist Also Visits Hood
River and Inspects . Apple
Lands In Valley.
After devoting two days to sightseeing
In Portland and vicinity. Interrupted only
by delivering political addresses at the
Helllg Tuesday night. Judge Alton B.
Parker and De Lancy Nicoll, ex-District
Attorney of New York, left last night for
points on Puget Sound. Yesterday was
spent in a ride up the Columbia River
and an Inspection of Hood River or
chards. "We have been amply repaid for this,
our Brst visit to Portland. Bald Judge
Parker last night. "In fact we have not
wasted a .minute since reaching your city.
We were greatly impressed with the
beauty of the Columbia River, and Ju
dicially have been comparing It with the
Hudson. It is difficult to make a com
parison of the two streams, since they
differ so widely, and it is for that reason
I would not undertake to say which Is the
more beautiful. But the Columbia cer
tainly Is one of the most scenic rivers I
have ever seen.
"We left the train at Hood River, and
while Mr. Nicoll got something to eat, I
accepted an invitation for an automobile
ride through some of the magnificent or
chards surrounding that place. I was
particularly Interested in an Inspection of
the apple orchards and the success with
which this fruit is grown in Oregon, for
I am an orchard 1st in a small way my
self. At home I have 25 acres of apple
trees, but I never could satisfy myself
as to why the trees did not grow as rap
Idly as they do In your state. It was not
until today that I learned the reason. I
knew It was not because of lack of care,
for I give my orchard my personal at
tention and spray just as thoroughly as
any other orchardlst. The secret of the
remarkable tree growth, to say nothing
of the productive qualities of your or
chards, I am convinced lies In the fact of
a longer growing season in this state than
we have In New York."
Upon returning from his . visit to the
apple orchards. Judge Parker was pre
sented with a supply of Hood River's
choicest apples, which he relished in lieu
of a hotel meal.

expulsion from his lodge on a charge of

partment of the Chicago, Milwaukee & St.
Paul Railway, and one time was a polit

of the order was announced here last
night
The charge against Mr. Hlnsey .was
made by Optlen Fethers, of Janesvllle,
Wis., when Fethers was supreme chan
cellor. Hlnsey was Indicted and charges
preferred against him in his lodge. He
fought the indictments, and they were
quashed, and all the subsequent civil suits
which were started he either won or they
were dismissed.-
Throughout It all he had one friend
John C. Burns, also of the Chicago. Mil
waukee & St. Paul Railway. Mr. Bums
worked constantly to have the whole af
fair Investigated. On the final rollcall, at
Boston, which resulted 99 to 80 in Hin
sey's favor, the end came. Hlnsey, after
a seven-year fight, was restored to all the
rights and privileges and his former good
standing as a true Knight of Pythias.
EVANS . REVISES ANECDOTE
Admiral Tells What He Said Con
cerning Spanish Gunnery.
NEW YORK. Aug. 19. A special dis
patch from Lake Mohonk brings the fol
lowing story of Admiral Evans. The other
day a friend asked him:
"Admiral. Is there any truth that after
the battle of Santiago you called out from
the bridge of the Iowa to a captain of
another battleship: 'Those Spaniards can't
fight a damned thing except waterT "
Admiral Evans laughed and replied:
"I will tell you what I realty said and
what the incident really was." he said.
"One drizzly day during the blockade we
stood in toward the harbor and shelled
the shore batteries. It was not as excit
ing as It might have been, for whether
we hit anything or not. I know the Span
lards did not quite come near us. After
the Bhelllng was over a press, boat lay
alongside of my ship and a newspaper
man asked if we had been hit. I shouted
back: 'They didn't touch us. 'n.e Span
iards didn't hit anything except water,
and they couldn't have hit that If there
wasn't so damned much of it.' "

MULE SHOWS HIS TRICKS
PET PRESENTED TO BRYAN
THROWS CORRESPONDENT.
Venturesome Writer Nurses Many
BruUes as Result of Adventure
With Minnesota's Gift.
FAIRVIEW, Lincoln. Tseb., Aug. 19.
The advent today of the trick mule which
was presented to William J. Bryan by the
Minnesota State Agricultural Society was
made memorable by an Incident which oc
curred during the afternoon. In which the
mule and an Eastern newspaper corre
spondent were the central figures. W hen
announcement was first made of the fact
that the animal had been presented, the
particular correspondent served notice
that he would' be the first to ride the
mule. Today the opportunity came, with
the result that the correspondent tonight
Is nursing a sore head and a badly
bruised leg. caused by being hurled Into
the air by the mule, which had been
trained to permit no one to ride him.
Mr Bryan witnessed the proceedings
and 'exhibited a" good deal of solicitude
for the injured newspaper writer. The
mule was taken back into the stable, and
there is every likelihood that he will not
be permitted to display any more of his
talents. , , . . .
When Mr. Bryan starts on hte ten days'
trip tomorrow night he will have complet
ed nearly all the set speeches he will
make during that time. He practically
denied himself to all -visitors, desiring to
utilize every available moment In com
pleting his work.

ROB RUSSIA OF MILLIONS
STAMP SWINDLERS DETECTED
IN IMMENSE FRAUD.
Leading Moscow Merchants Involved
in Renovation and Reselling
of Cancelled Stamps.
MOSCOW, Aug. 19. The' Moscow police
are only on the threshold of their investi
gation of fraudulent postage stamp busi
ness for which 30 persons were yesterday
reported as having been arrested. It Is
believed the operations, which consisted
in the systematic traffic in canceled
stamps, will develop Into one of the most
colossal swindles of recent times in Rus
sia. The figures already reported of
6.000.000 stamps cover only the sales at
Moscow for three months.
Two well-known merchants of Moscow
are among those arrested.
The business was so lucrative that a
rival organization recently entered the
field at Moscow and began to cut prices,
which led to the discovery of the swindle.
The canceled stamps were procured
through -members of an organization pos
ing as philatelists, then sent to a labora
tory In Warsaw for cleansing and sold
through accomplices in the postoffice or
direct to commercial houses by the wholesale.
