ing the true earnings of the Octroi. and
Prince Ching, his successor. returned &c
the old order OF things. and peculation -

vENEzUELA's DEBT.

In enumerating the debts of the
South American republic the London
Mail OF a recent date gives the prin-
cipal item of the claims against that
country as S per cent government
loan Of $10,000,0OO made in 1896. 1t
is claimed that on this loan the In
terest has been allowed to lapse and
is now four years in arrears. Two
thirds Of this loan is held by Germans
and the remainder by Englishmen
and Frenchmen. Another item is a
railway constructed by German CAPT
tai at a cost of SIS 100000, on which
Venezuela guaranteed the interest. 1t
is stated that this guarantee has not
been made good. Other railroads
have been built by English capital on
the same terms. None of these have
received the interest guaranteed them
and in addition have not received the
pay for carrying the Venezuelan SOL
dfers and provisions at half price as
agreed upon. 1t is stated that on this
count alone the bill of the British is
about S2,O00,000. Other claims for
damages are also to be counted in.
That the majority of the claims are
just cannot be doubted. There is some
reason, however, for the belief that
President Castro has large portion
OF the loan of 1896 stored safely
away in the Bank of France. This
being the case there is considerable
pleasure felt in certain circles at the
attempt to make him disgorge these
amounts. 1t has been intimated that
the powers would seize the customs
houses that they might make good
their claims. However, this method
of getting satisfaction is liable to re.
suit in the administration of the We
nezuelan customs by the German and
British authorities for several years.
The total receipts for the past six
months at La Guayra, the most i'm.
portant port, amounted to only $780,
900. This will bring in perhaps about
$1,70O,000 per year, but this sum will
scarcely be sufficient to pay the cur
rent interest to say nothing of the
several years of defaulted interest,
which will have to be paid off.
