MO Fernahjaz, war minister under
President AnlraGe. and Senor Lutow

day against President Castro near La
Victoria. The revOlutionists reached
Cagua, on the way to Villa de Cura
where their partisans had concentrated
from all the surrounding districts.
The movement, 1t is asserted, haO
long been premeditated and is in accord
with that Of General Matos, who IL
daily expected at Martinique. 1t is con.
sidered a strong blow at President
Castro, who, Immediately on learning
Of the uprising, dispatched troops from
Maracai by rail, but found the line de
stroyed at Cagua. Traffic on the Ger

phone and telegraph lines have beeL
cut.
Another uprising is reported to have
taken place near Valencia, and it IL
said that the entire country is ready tt
take up arms against the administra
ton of General Castro.
The government censorship is strict

consider the Mendoza movement an ex
tremely serious one and fear that other
uprisings will occur.
