very dun-'itlt. 'iu almost ImpofMble.
The revolutionist have, moreover,

suggested; but General Castro Is now
In a position to defend himself. Ho
will, nevertheless, hnve much to do
to emerge from the struggle victorious,
because the revolutionist In addition
to Motos' army, have about S0O0 men
nt Alta Grnela under the orders of
Domingo Miitiugus, Rolando and Pen
aloxa, General Luciano Mendosa, Rl
era and BolitKlnl are near BarnulRiucto

Caracas and La Gunyra. Ncvcrthe
lean, the government Ihe.i, commands

that It 1 not yet crushed.
A great battlj I expected lo tuke
place within four of five week either
at Alta Gruclu de Orltuco If Matos can
bring over his ammunition and ad
vance his army or between Aragulta
and Bantu Lucia, a valley which the
revolutionists will probably attempt
to puss In order to reach Caracas.
From a financial point of view Presi
dent Castro has regained his lost pres
tige through the arrival of the mil
lion bolivars (coins worth about 20
cents In silver brought to him by the
steamer Philadelphia.
This sum has enabled him to face
certain pressing engagements and to
prove to his adversaries that he has
found in the coining of silver, even
with 50 per cent profit, eertnln legal
resources which will avoid the neces
sity of having recourse to forecd loans.
