Wlllemstadt, Aug. 3. Following ths
arrival here of the Dutch Cruiser Gel
derland from La Guayra, Venezuela, it
is reared that President Castro is pre

and news of an outbreak is hourly ex
pected. An officer of the cruiser reports
that he was refused permission to fand
a marine at La Guayra with mall bags i
and communications for the German
minister at Caracas, who is representing
the Dutch Interests.
At the latter place, according to re
ports received here, the talk of armed
resistance ,1s regarded as improbable,
the government claiming Dial It had
the fullest justification for the dis
missal of M. De Rues, the Dutch min
ister, and that the affair will be settled,
by diplomacy when all the facta are
known. This vlewr is not shared by th
officials here, and it is confidently be
lieved that Castro is planntng ftn wwr.
It is claimed by Venezuela that De
Rues wrote a letter with the deliberate
intention that it should be published, in
which he characterized the rule of
President Castro as dictatorial and
ruinous to tho country's interests. The
letter was-calculated to discourage any
one from coming to Venezuela to seek
employment until Castro changed his
policies.

The Stevenson home was purchased!
