WILLEMSTADT Curacao, Sept. 13.-
From every section of Venezuela troops
were sent last week in the direction of the
Colombian frontier and toward Maracaibo.
Mauser rifles, artillery and ammunition in
great quantity have been stored at Mara
caibo, and several new bridges have been
built near San Cristobal, near the frontier
of Colombia, to allow of the rapid concen-
tratiOn of troops. President Castro has
asked the President of each State in Vene-
zuela TO send two battalions within two
weeks.
a leading Venezulan citizen who is now
here, in an interview regarding these mill
tary movements in Venezuela, said he be-
lieved they were only precautionary meas
ures regarding Colombia, which, now the
country is free from revolution, has rein
forced recently its army on the Venezuelan
frontier. near Cucuta. Other Venezuelans
say Venezuelan war with Colombia is in
evitable in the near future, as consequence
of the sympathy President Castro extended
to the Colombian rebels during the recent
rebellion, and also because of the question
of navigation on the Orinoco. President
Castro's great idea, they say, Is war with
Colombia.
The relations between Venezuela and Co

President Castro lent active help to General
