VENEZUELA MAKES REPLY
President Castro's Official Answer
to Claims Made by German
Government.
VENEZUELAN RIGHTS NOT RESPECTED.
South American Republic Thinks
Seeking Compensation forDnmuges
to the Courts of Venezuela.
the Courts of Venezuela.

New York, Aug. 1s.-A memoran-
dun has been delivered to the Ger
man minister in Caracas. Venezuela,
and confdentially to the representa-
tives of al the friendly powers,
cables the Herald correspondent at
Willemstad, Curacao. This memo
randum was an answer to the note
transmitted last December by Am
bassador Won Holleben to the United
States government.
The German note was not officially
known to President Castro until the
present time. The kaiser's govern
ment in that note informed the
United States of its intention to oc-
cupy a Venezuelan port in order to
claims.
President Castro's official answer
to that note is regarded by MEM
bers of his government as strong
document. He contends that Ger
many has not respected Nenezuela's
right to legislate both for Vene-
zuelan citizens and for foreigners re-
| sluluS III NelleZueld.
Castro insists that the claims of
the Germans and other foreigners
for damages during the civil wars
should be presented to and decided
only by Venezuelan courts.
Germany maintains that satisfac-
! ton cannot be obtained in that way,
owing to the well-known and pc
culiar characteristics of Venezuelan
courts, which are President Castro's
instruments.
The kaiser's government contends
that the claims should be settled by
conferences between a German dip
lomatic agent and the Venezuelan
minister of foreign affairs, and in
case of disagreement, the matter
should be referred to The Hague in.
ternational court of arbitration.
President Castro's memorandum de.
clares that the German claims have
| been exaggerated, and contains a
list of references to autho critics on
international law to support the gov
| ernment's argument.
1t declares that Germany has not
made a legal argument, but simply
series of demands, to the validity
of which Venezuela objects.
In conclusion the Venezuelan mem.
oranduum says that the government
| presents to the German empire and
to the friendly powers it's protest
against the ideas, imputations and
| purposes of the German note of De.
cember II, and declares that this
protest is necessary.
1t asserts that Venezuela, as al
Independent nation, objects to TIL,
motive of Ambassador Holleben':
communication to the United States
government, and considers that the
note, in it's political aspect and gen
eral character, affects the integrit,
of the rights of the American hemi
sphere-an integrity which all Amer
lean republics must uphold, and fo1
the strengthening Of which two in
ternational congresses have me-
through the influence of the United
States.

MUNICIPAL
 ELECTIONS
Nebraska, Wherever Reported From,
 Went Republican.

Omaha, Neb.. April 1.-City elections were held in every town in Nebraska today with the exception of Omaha. Generally local issues predominated and the matte" oi national politics en- tered but slightly into the campaign. Nebraska has a local option law and the question of license or no license was the slogan in q number of the large: towns. including Lincoln. In many of the other tCwrs there was but one ticket in the field.
 The campaign in South Omaha was q three ccrnered fight between the demo- crats. republicans and citizens candi- dates. The republicans elected Frank Koutskey for mayor and the rest of the ticket will probably be republican, including all the six coUncilnen.
 In Lincoln the entire republican tick ct. with the exception of one counciI- man. was elected and the town declared in favor of a license.

 Senator Money spoke in the same vein as MT.

 The resolution provoked q smart de- bate which was participated in by Sen ators Bacon and Money, both democrat l. ic members of the committee on for eign relations, on one side, and by Sen arors Cul!om, Lodge, Hanna Allison, Nelson and others, republicans on the other side.
