AIDED REVOLUTION.
Testimony of John Perry in the Suit of
 Nene1ueIa.

New York, Sept. 2s.-The Bermudez
 ed revolutionary troops in Venezuela during the Matos revolution in 1901; its steamer Viking carried revolution ary supplies and the company's acting superintendent on moro than one oc- casion gave the revolutionists food and supplies.
 Testimony to this effect was given today by John Perry, who was acting superintendent for the company in 1901, in the suit brought by the Vene- zuelan government to recover $11, 1,O0O.- 900 from the asphalt company because of the company's alleged participation in this revolution. Perry declared, however. that the revolutionary troops
 were transported only because similar transportation had been accorded the government troops; that the supplies and arms carried on the Viking were smuggled on board by individuals with
 the company's consent. and that his contributions of food and supplies to
 the revolutionists was entirely a per sonal act and was done to avoid the trouble a refusal would have caused Perry said he had been appointed acting superintendent to succeed Su- perintendent Jeffs, who had been sus- | pended TOT assisting the Matos ele-
 ment. He added that Jeffs had told him that whatever assistance he had given the revolutionists had been per
 sonal and had been done to avoid trouble.
 William J. Ewart, who had been the
 company's general manager at Cara
 cas. said that when he left for South
 America to take the position of gem eral manager of the company, General
 Francis V. Greene, then President of
 the General Asphalt Company. told him
 1t would be demanded of him that he
 keep clear of all political complica- l tions and that he should. as the com pany's representative, recognize the
 existing Venezuelan government. All
 other agents of the company. the wit
 ness said. had had similar instructions
 and so far as he knew they had been
 obeyed,
