VENEZUELAN REINFORCEHENTS

from Maracaibo under date of September %.

about fifteen hundred recruits from La Vela

Vincente Sanchez In command, left that place

whence they will probably move inland toward
the frontier. The foregoing covers the facts in
the case
Numberless rumors being industrously
circulated, but a careful weighing of all infor-
n alton from various sources leads TO the belief
that the forces of Davila, after their disastrous
defeat on September H. wandered to the
mountains pursued by Indians and Colombians.
Eventually Davila. with five companions sue
oeeded in reaching Fort San Carlos thirty miles
north of Maracabo. a Venezuelan base and po-
litcal prison. whence he asked that reinforce
ments be sent to rescue his command. reported
to be in distress and danger from the Indians
inhabiting Guajira. who. under the leadership
of their cacique. Juan Dolores, are fighting on
the side of the Colombian Government.
Clodomir and Juan Castillo. the Colombian
Liberal leaders. appear to be at Treinta. on the
Colombian side of Guajira, with followers esti-
mated TO number from five hundred TO two
thousand men. II is reported although without
Castillo and Davila's men, if rescued from their
predicament and the Sanchez expedition Will
attempt to unite cooperate in a movement
upon Rio Hacha, where Colombia appears 40
have about two thousand men under the lead
ership of Ayame. 1t is more conservatively
thought that Venezuela will not assume the as-
gressive.
Both the Venezuelan and Colombian govern
ments show tendency to place at the head or
their forces the revolutionary leaders of the
other country in order to give color of politi-
cal revolution TO the contacts between tneir re re-
spective troops For example. Venezuelan troops
under the leadership of Colombian Liberal are
operating against the Colombian Government
forces and the movement will be termed an in
ternal and not international disturbance
This greatly confuses the situation.
The Venezuelan disaster on september ii is
fully confirmed. Few prisoners were taken The
retreating Venezuelans were caught on both
sides of a river with the bridge broken. and the
Coombians overwhelmed them from three sides.
scattering the Venezuelans, who were am
pushed by the Indians.
Letters received here from Tachira are TO the
effect that General Uribe-Uribe is collecting and
manipulating his forces in a small way but no
action of Importance is being taken by him.
credible report received here is to the erect
that twelve hundred Colombian Conservative
troops are at a hamlet called Sinamaica. about
three days march from Maracaibo.
The Colombans may attempt to prevent the
union or concerted action between the Sanchez
Davila Castillo forces.
