CASTRO HAS HOPES.
Again Sets Forth to Subdue the
Revolutionists.

Willemstad. Aug. 5.-President Castro
of Venezuela left Caracas on Sunday to
personally conduct the second and what
he believed will be the final campaign
against the revolutionists. He will pro-
coed to Charayave and Qua, little places
about a day and a half from the capital
He had with him 300 men and expected
to meet en- route $500 more men brought
back from La Victoria and Valencia.
In consequence of the delay of the rev.
olutionists in advancing, President Castro
has had time TO organize new armies and
today he Is nearly as strong In numbers
as are the revolutionists. He expects
reinforcements of 1900 men from the
Andes and Truiillo states. commanded
by General Baptista. The only advantage
the revoutIonists have at present comes
from the fact that they have in their
ranks the better military leaders.
Four million cartridges and O,GOMauser
rifles were received by President Castro
last Saturday. Half of these were de-
posted in Caracas and the ether half
was sent to Maracaibo on schooner.
This distribution of munitions of war Is
taken to be proof that If Castros forces
are beaten, in the expected engagement
with the revolutionists and # the presi-
dent escapes, he intends to prolong re-
sistence and purposes to transport the
beadouarters of the government to San
Crtstobal in the extreme western part OF
Venezuela, where he was torn. This
oDnarent decision on the part Of President
Castro has created deeling depression
in commercial and financial circles.

THE CUBAN LOAN
The Measure Has Not Been Dis
cussed in the House.

Havana, Aug. 5.-Ths Secretary of the
Cuban House of Representatives said to-
day that the bill authorizing the raising
of a loan to aid the sugar planters had
not even been discussed in the House,
much less passed by that body.
On Saturday the Senate Committee re-
ported the bill to the Senate, and 1t was
accepted in it's entirety as I basis OF dis
cussion. Yesterday the bill was brought
up in the Senate and discussed clause
by clause. nine of its thirteen clauses be-
ing approved. The remaining four clauses
are unimportant.
One clause of the bill deals with the
pledging of increased receipts from Gus
toms duties on certain articles. on which
the tariff is to be increased. Discussion
was resumed on the bill in the Senate
today A bill similar to the Senate bill
was presented in the House on Friday
and referred to a committee which has
not yet reported it.
The bill is like the Senate bill in that
II provides for two separate operations
for raising money, $5,O000o0 at once for
agricultural relief and $780, 900 later to
pay the army. 1t is claimed that this
bill has a majority in the House. f. u.
Pierra, in La Lucha, argues that the
Senate bill provides for a loan of $4OOO,Ooo,
but merely promises to raise the larger
loan, no provision for that loan being
made by the bill

Two of the inmates of the Soldier }
Home at Mountain Creek for disabled
Confederate Veterans are at an infirmary
in Montgomery for medical attention and
reatment.
The old soldiers were i'll when they were
received at the Home and it was thought
best to bring them to the city where they
could get the attention of physicians and
the benefit of careful nursing. ~
The veterans who are in Montgomery
are Mr.. Robertson of Gadsden, and Mr..
Davis of Baldwin County. At present
there are no hospital facilities at Noun

the cottages now in the course of con-
struction, are finished. The Camp has on
file a large number of applications from
various old soldiers in different parts OF
the State.
Captain ]. NJ. Falkner, who recently
visited the Home, says the old soldiers
are contented and happy under its shelf
ering roof.
Speaking of their life one of the veter-
ans who commanded a company in the
Confederate army said:
What impHesses me more than any
thing else and what appeals to me in the
strongest way, is the uniform courtesy
and kindness which the inmates show to
each other. The intercourse between
those who are here is marked by gen.
tleness and forbearance that il touch
in gand pathetic
The work at the Home has been delayed
by the non-arrival of lumber which Camp
Falkner had ordered for the new Home
The foundations for the new main build
ings have been finished and the logs

of age-no less than twenty-five boys and
girls.

enacted when they discovered that part
of the children had never been baptized.

once.
