PARIS. April 23. Ciprlano Castro ar
rived here this evening. He walked out
of the nation supported by two attend
ants, and it was evident that he made
m ay with difficulty. He entered an
ordinary taxicab and went to a modest
hotel In the Place Concordo, where he
hired a sinule room.
Castro continued his denunciation of the
Vnited States. He spoke bitterly of the
Venezuelans for what he termed helr

his life to defend their "dignity, honor
and Interests."
of Courts and International Arbitration;"
Particular reference was made to the
Drago doctrine. Mr. Root contend
ing: that the submission to Interna
tional tribunals implies no impeach
ment of sovereignty.
Mr. Root admitted that where there
has been a denial of Justice In National
courts their decisions are not to be held
conclusive and arbitration and other fur
ther action may be called for.
This was followed by a discussion of
the topic, "Arbitration as a Judicial
Remedy." among those taking part in
the discussion being ex-Secretary of
State John W. Foster. who deal:
with English and American cases of
arbitration, as did also Prof.- B. W.
Amar of the New York University Law
School. Wayne MacVeagrh spoke on the
work at The Hague In matters of ar
bitration, while Senor Luis Anderson,
late special envoy from Costa Rica to
the United States, covered Latin-American
cases.
President Taft, who is one of the
vice-presidents of the society, will re
ceive the members at the White House
tomorrow afternoon and the conference
will close with a banquet tomorro-r
night.
Air. roster declared there never was a
good war or a bad peace. In conclusion
he cited the immense cost of arbitration
proceedings, indicating that the Bering
Sea case had cost $230,000 and the Alaskan
boundary dispute J100.000. These Indicated
to his mind the difficulties which te
smaller powers were confronted with In
the submission of any case to arbitration.

ST. NAZAIRE, April 23. The steam
ship Versailles, with Ciprlano Castro,
the deposed President of Venezuela,
aboard, arrived here at daylight. Be
fore Senor Castro left his cabin he
sent for a newspaper correspondent
and. sitting up in bed with a nightcap
on his head, deliverer a long and ram
bling harangue. His remarks were di
rected principally against the United
States for "playing into the hands of
his enemies in Venezuela and sending
warships to follow his movements."
He declared Venezuela was lost if
the people submitted like slaves to for
eign meddling.
When asked regarding his future
plans, the deposed President said he
had made none, as he considered him
self a prisoner of war. When informed
that the French Government gave him
full liberty, he replied:
"But I am not free if I desire to
return to Fort de France and cannot.
France should respect the rights of man
proclaimed a century ago."
In spite of his assertion that he
did not know what he was going to
do. it became clear that Castro had
planned to go to Paris. His baggage
was taken ashore and placed on a train
and he left at once for the Capital.
Passengers on the Versailles said
that when Castro was brought on board
the steamer at Fort de. France he de
clared that if he had been allowed to
make his way to Venezuela he soon
would have raised an army to over
throw his enemies.
As the. train was leaving for Paris,
Castro addressed the assembled news
paper men as follows:
"I was expelled from Martinique under
pressure exerted by the United States.
Kurope soon will repent of the action
taken against me. The United States
already has taken Cuba and Panama, and
the American Government has now com
mitted its first act against the sov
ereignty of Venezuela."

To Halation Between th- Jurisdiction
FLUSHING, N. Y.. April 23. After five
days' grinding work, resulting in securing
only seven men in the jury box, the trial
of Captain Peter C. Hains. Jr., charged
witn the murdering of William E. Annls
was adjourned until Monday.
Thus far 348 talesmen have been ex.
amined and a new panel of 150 has. been
drawn for Monday. The indications are
that the trial will be finished without
the appointment of a lunacy commission.
Neither side, according to declarations
made by each, will take the initiative in
applying for such a commission.
So convinced. Is John F. Mclntyre, chluf
counsel lor the defense, of hie client'?

he would place Captain Hams on the
stand to let the Jurors judge for them
selves his mental condition. Captain
Hains has maintained a stolid indifference
to the proceedings throughout the week
and has spoken to no one in cou-.t, not
even his father or brother.
The prisoner's lawyers declare hs has
no intelligent comprehension of the na

playing such an important part, and At

guilty tonight of murder in the first
degree by means of poison sent through

defense. He maintained that Boas sent
the powder to himself from San Jose,
wnere he formerly lived. This also
had been the theory of the police until
suspicion pointed to Wilson.
The principal witness for the prose
cution was Theodore Kytka, the hand
writing expert, who, after a careful ex
amlnatlon and comparison of sneclmens
of Wilson's handwriting and that of a
note wnicn accompanied the poison, de
clared tney were rrora the same hand.
Today on the stand Kytka declared
that the Ink with which the poison
rote was written was exactly the same
as that provided for guests at the hotel
where Wilson lived at the time of the
tragedy.
In the fatal letter Wilson recom
mended the powder which he inclosed
as highly efficacious in disorders such
as troubled Boas, and signed the ficti
tious name of a physician.

LOS ANGELES, Cal.. April 23. (Spe

that ever tempted the bravest machine

he will procure the resignations of or re

In the past 48 hours he has sent for mem

It Is admitted bv the TWflVftr and Vita

Alexander was seated in the Mayor's
chair. The recall faction has been unable
to pay political obligations to the sup
porters of the movement. The Civil Serv

removals for political cause, and it is the
plan of the recall bosses to get a new
commission, that new appointees may be
made.
