VENEZUELAN INJUSTICE.
Expulsion of a French Claimant
Castro Not DOCiLe.

Paris June So.-Advices have been received here
from Caracas giving particulars of the expulsion
from Venezuela of a Frenchman named de Viale-
rgo, a leading figure in the foreign colony at
Caracas, who. in accordance with the protocols
brought claim for 5000 damages against the
government for being imprisoned for two months
without any reason being alleged.
The official press by order of the government
published violent attacks on him and on an Amer
lean citizen named Ocott and the eve OF the
case going before the mixed tribunal de ViaIerigo
received order of expulsion. NJ. Wiener. the
French Minister at Caracas. saw President Castro
and induced him to suspend the decree. but the
President asked de Vialerigo TO withdraw his
claim. This request refused. and the decree OF
expulsion was then carried out.
This incident is said TO have created considerable
stir among the foreign colony in Caracas. It is
feared that 1t implies policy of intimidation OF
foreign claimants and that the Venezuelan gov
eminent is seeking TO avoid the consequences OF
the agreement signed in Washington. The benefits
that the Notwithstanding foreign countries be-
lieved TO have gained by signing the protocols
are considered 10 be seriously menaced.
1t has become very difficult TO treat with Presi-
General Matos. He refused TO listen the pro-
OF Minister Wiener, who supported by the
dean OF The diplomatic corps, who spoke In the
name OF his colleagues. asked the President re-
consider the decree of expulsion against NJ. de
Viaergo.

SPUR TO CUBAN SENATE
German Claims Mag Hasten Rdtiti-
cation of Treaties.

Havana, June 30.-The first public reference
on the subject of the German claims against
Cuba which were mentioned TO the Cuban con-
sui general at Hamburg by the German foreign
secretary. Baron Won Richthofen. and OF the
nature of which nothing is known here. was
made this afternoon in the Discussion. a
government organ. which. in editorial said:
II it Is true that Germany intends TO present
claims against Cuba the Senate should ask
itself whether 1t would not be advisable tnat
the final decision on the German cOnrnunlca-
tion should find us with our relations with tne
United States finally agreed TO, for although
this may be a simple question which, IN our
opinion has emphatic reply in the treaty
of Paris, 1t may be a new preteXt taken oJ
Germany TO find the ticklsh spot OF the Monroe
Doctrine.
The article advises the immediate approval
and PRONUNCIATION of the treaties with the
United States which founded on the Platt
amendment.
The opinion is gaining ground here that any
claims that Germany may have in contempla-
ton are not connected with the Spanish bonds
sold in Europe on account OF the Cuban war
debts, but are the claims Of German citizens
for damages sustained in the war. Under the
Treaty OF Paris the United States and spain
agreed to settle only the claims Of their own
citizens. Consequently. there is some apprehen-
sion that Europeans may seek to collect some
such claims against Cuba
While the article in the Discussion Is al
legged by some persons TO be merely an at
tempt to hasten the Senate's ratification OF the
American treaties, IL Is conceded that CuOd
will be in a stronger position to deal with
European claims after her relations with the
United States are established under the pend
afforded to her through the establishment Of
the United States naval stations
