The Herald feels that it owes Candi-
date Howell an apology. II turns out
that the gems" he was supposed TO
have turned out in his opening speech
at Wellsvnle were not the products OF
his massive brain at all. II certainly
was decidedly mean for the Tribune
to credit them TO him, or rather. TO
charge him with them.

The Herald notes with grief the de-
parture Of w. T. Owens of Garfield
from the Democratic midst. Mr.. Owens
assigns as his reason for switching the
alleged inconsistency of the Democrats
and the unwavering irmness of the Re-
publieans. Mr.. Owens evidently hasn't
read about the fiip-fops the Repubh-
cans have been turning on the ques-
tons of trusts and reciprocity with
Cuba. By the way, who is this man
Owens, anyway?

An incident in Caracas about year ago
caused some people TO say that IL showed
General CastrO's disposition TO evade the
payment of his just debts. Some Spanish
bullfghters visited the Venezuelan capital.
and Castro, offended by his staff, went one
Sunday to the bull ring. Outside the build
ing stood some three hundred men and
boys. who, because they had not the price
of admission, could not attend the PERFORM
ance. President Castro never loses
chance to enhance his popularity, and he
therefore secured the admission OF the
crowd. promising to pay the management
the next day. The crowd rushed in, yell
ing "Viva ell Presidente" Next day the
bill for admissions TO the bulfight was
presented. and was promptly repudiated
by Castro. who said the management had
merely done for "the government what
would be expected of them. That ended the
bullfghting in Caracas.
President Castro lives In a mansion
known Mirafiores, built by the late
President Crespo. He is married, but has
no children. His home life is modest The
executive chamber is also at Mirahores. 1t
is not an easy matter to obtain an audi
ence with the President. He is nervous,
irritable and excitable, and will not give
much time to visitors. He is also well
guarded at home. His career shows that
he is no coward. but he does not want to be
taken unawareS.

pairing lombard the Port.

LAGUAYRA, Venezuela, Dec. l6.-The ar
rival of the British cruiser Charybdis and
torpedo boat destroyer Quayl yesterday
caused bad scare among the population
of this place. The commander of the
fortress visited the American, French,
Spanish and Dutch consuls and asked them
in case the British landed marines to in
tervene TO prevent firing on the forts and
to delay any movement on the fort, as
he had received orders from the govern
ment to evacuate the place. The COM
mander added that If the conSulS refused
TO intervene and the forts were attacked
he would defend his post and could not
answer for the consequences to the town,
which Is without any defense now. with
the exception of few armed policemen.
AT o'clock, however. the CharydbiS and
Quayl left the place and the fears of the
populace subsidized What caused the most
excitement was that when the British ships
arrived here they took up a commanding
position, their guns covering the forts, and
remained stationary for few moments. as
If about to open fire. The Charybdis and
Quayl steamed away In the direction of
Curacao. The foreign consuls subsequently
called on the project. who assured them
there was no danger at present He added
that the commander of the fort had been
needlessly alarmed and had only succeeded

escorted, with his family, from the con-
sulate to the British cruiser Retribution by
marines from that vessel.

house he was received at the entrance of
that building by the administrator Of La

lutionary general to his living apartments
upstairs. After a short conference with

spirit of peace. We will work together

is a second Poland-the Poland of South
America" General HernandeZs remarks
were greeted with prolonged cheers. The
people showed the greatest enthusiasm and
seemed entirely to have forgotten the pres
ent extreme situation. After having de-
livered his speech lei Mocho' took a Spe-
cial train to Macuto, a summer resort not
far from Laguayra, where he was followed
by a large crowd who continually cheered
him. Later the revolutionary leader left
for Caracas.

day are the British cruiser Retribution, the
Italian cruiser Giovanni Bausan, the
American gunboat Marietta and the Span

partisans, who tried to unharness the horses
attached to his carriage and themselves

ever. the people desisted for this endeavor.
From the railroad station General Herman
dez drove TO Miraflores Palace the resi-

the President of the country. President
Castro then appeared upon balcony of
the palace and made address in reply

that they will assist President Castro to
