Wlllemstad, Curaco, July 27.
The Dutch cruiser Ooldorland ar
rived here today bearing Minister
He Rues, who wan expelled from
Venezuela. The cruiser received
orders to return at dbce to ; Vene
tuela to protect the Dutch Interest!
and be prepared for any emergency.
De Rues will remain here pending
ordera from the government.
Amsterdam, July 27. In retaliation
for the summary expulsion of Minister
de Rues, It 1b officially announced to
day that all Dutch warships In Amster
dam waters have been ordered to make
a demonstration against Venezuela.
Unless President Castro makes an
immediate apology to tlils country It Is
probable that the Dutch ships will
bombard IR Gtiayra. ' Puerto' Cabcllo
and the other principal coast towns of
Venezuela.
The opinion Is expressed freely nere
that Castro at last lias exceeded all
bounds In his International Insults ami
that nothing but an actual attack upon
Venezuela will bring; him to n proper
recognition of the rights of other na
tions. Reports from the Island of Curacao
of the revolt of the Dutch and the na
tives against the Venezuelan consul
and all things Venezuelan have -Increased
greatly the belief that tin- sit
uation is critical and that summary
action Is necessary.
The Venezuelan consul, Senor Lopez,
guarded bv soldiers who surround his
nome today to prevent a repetition of
the attacks of Saturday night and Sun
day, when the natives " engaged in a
furious outbreak occasioned by their
hatred for President Castro and the
Venezuelan government In general.
The residents of this island believe
that Castro has been leading up to an
''actual attack upon the Dutch posses
sions ana nave become so. incensed mat
thev will not listen to counsel of the
leaders, who urge against public dem
onstration, promising that the home
fovernment will teke the necessary ac
lon to hold Castro In check.

Washington. July 27. The announce
ment that the Netherlands has decldd
to make a hostile demonstration against
Venezuela was received with much In
terest and a certain amount of satisfac
tion at tn state department today.
The department realized that some
thing had to be done to prove to Presi
dent Castro that he Is not .above the In
ternational law. The action of the
Netherlands, It Is believed. Is as good a
way of bringing the Venezuelan to a
realization of the certain outcome of a

could be proposed.

Kellaher's eligibility is a matter of
concern not only to the councilman's
friends bul to the company and city ns
well. So far as known there Is onlv
one case of similar nature that has
ever been tnken to the supreme court of
any state. This was the case of Indi
ana against Kirk.
Test Case in Indiana.
It is almost Identical with that of
Kellaher and to add interest to the
matter the constitution of Indiana re
spectlng one man holding two lucrative
ornces at the same time is almost
identical in wording as the Oregon
constitution.
The supreme court of Indiana in this
case held that the position or council
man in this sense was not considered
lucrative and ruled In favor of Kirk.
