CONDITIONS IN POLAND.

According to reliable information
reaching Warsaw yesteaday, the Poland
peasant revolt, in view of the fact that
the peasants number 1000, 600 out of a
total population of 10000, 600, will, il
it spreads, result in disorder far greater
than ANYTHING that has arisen during the
present agitation.
The peasants hitherto have not figured
to any great extent in this agitation,
which is confined to the 2, 900, 600 work
men in the cities and towns. The social
lists recently sent emissaries into the
country districts for the purpose OF stir
ring up The villages. According to re-
ports they met with speedy success. AS
rs per cent. Of the peasants are unable to
read, they are easily led away by social

The movement began at Pruszka and
extended at once to PiOtzk. 1t 6rst
reached serious dimensions in the distric;
of Siedlee, where a majority OF the Greek
Catholics or Uuiats reside. These, being
exceedingly emb.ttered by religious per-
secution, quickly joined in the agitation,
and approached the landed proprietors
with demand for an increa OF 90 per
cent. in their wages. Their demands
being refused, they promptly struck. In
many instances the peasant strikers re-
sorted 10 violence. Disturbances have

DECISION AGAINST GENERAL
BROOKE.

In the recent suit brought by Maria
Francisco O'Reilly, Countess OF Buena
Vista, Cuba. against Maj. Gen. John E.
Brooke, u. S. A., for $3.50, 900 damages
for having, while governor general OF
Cuba, deprived her of the hereditary
right to slaughter all cattle for the city
of Havana, Judge Holt, OF the United
States District Court, in New York, yes
terday overrued demurred filed by
Charles w. Russell, as special assistant
attorney general, representing Gen.
Brooke, claiming that the facts alleged
in the complaint did not constitute a
cause for action.
Judge Holt, in overruling the denur-
rer, said that the act Of Gen. Brooke "was
confiscation of the plaintiffs property,
and was wholly unlawful, tortuous-and
unauthorized upon the part of the de-
fendant, and that il was in contrayention
of the Spanish laws of 1859, and of the
subsequent decree of the Spanish crown
in 1878"
Judge Holt, in his opinion, says that
the slaughtering right was purchased
from the Spanish crown in 1928 by an
ancestor of the plaintiff, who thereby be-
came hereditary aiguacil mayor, or high
sheriff, of Havana, with the perpetual
privilege of slaughtering all the cattle
killed in the city of Havana, and that
this property right remained until the
Spanish war.
In Nav. 1899, the Island of Cuba
was under the military jurisdiction OF
the United States, under the treaty OF
Paris. made on December 10, 1898, the
opinion states, and quotes provision OF
the treaty which reads: "The relin-
quishment of Spanish sovereignty shall
not be held to impair the property rights
which by law belong to the peaceable
possession OF property of all kinds OF
private individuals of whatsoever ma
tionality such individuals may be. "
On May 90 1899, Brig. Gen William
Ludlow, governor of Havana, issued an
order by which he declared the hereditary
grant Of the O'Reilly family terminated,
and null and void, aud transferred the
right of slaughtering all the cattle, with
its attendant profits, to the city OF Ha-
yana. The plaintiff, then, the opinion
states, appealed for redress to Gen.
Brooke, as governor general OF the
island, who, on August II, 1899, at
6rmed the order OF Gen. Ludlow abolish
ing the Office of alguacil mayor, with its
special privileges.
Counsel for Gen. Brooke claimed the
act of his client was purely a govern
mental act, and that he was exempt,
therefore, from q private suit for
damages for governmental act. On
his point Judge Holt said:
III think under the decisions that the
defendant is not exempt from personal
liability in this action on the ground
contended by his counsel that his order
was an exercise of sovereign power.
His act was not an act done by a mill
tary commander in time OF war. The
annulment by Gen. Brooke OF the
plaintiffs right to carry on the slsught'
ering business, and its transfer to the
CITY of Havana, was not in its nature
military act, but was essentially an ac
done in the course of civil admins

THE INCORRIGlBLE CASTRO
May Yet Succeed in Getting Uncle Sam
Into Trouble.

The French cable complications In
Venezuela have reached q crisis and Min
lister Bowen has informed the State De-
partment that the French minister at
Caracas, by instructions of his govern
ment, has notified the Venezuelan gov
eminent that there must be no further
proceedings on its part toward the can
collation. of the company's franchise or
interference with its property. Further,
Mr.. Bowen reports that two French
warships have been ordered post haste
to Venezuela TO act in accordance with
the instructions of the French minister.
Apparently, in the opinion of the Chi
cagO Daily News. this country will be
most fortunate if the incorrigible Castro
does not succeed soon in creating an in
ternational situation even more embar
RAISING than that which eliminated in
the AnglO-German blockade of EeneZue-
Ian ports. The latest developments at
Caracas suggest that if he is not actu-
ally seeking complications with foreign
powers he is not restrained by any fear
Of them. Through his control of the
Venezuelan courts, which are absolutely
subservient to his will. he seems to have
succeeded in putting the American as
phalt company out of business and con-
fiscating its property. Following the same
high-handed policy he is now proceeding
against property interests belonging to
citizens of European nations.
To appreciate the broad possibilities of
the situation which may result from
those repeated attacks on foreign prop
erty, it should be remembered that the
granting of concessions to foreign firms
is one of the most characteristic fea-
lures of Venezuelan industry. Like the
asphalt lakes, many of the mines are
worked by these concessionnaires. An
American company operates the coun-
try's telephone service. a German COM
pany is exploiting it's sulphur deposits.
The French Cable company has con-
tract giving it terminal facilities and
the use of overland telegraph lines, the
contract providing that all disputes shall
be settled ''by the courts of the republic
and shall in no case give rise to interna-
tiOnal claims"
The French company's contract and
the concession of an Italian coal mining
company have now been annulled by the
order of Castro, who threatens to seize
the properties of these concerns. That
this is no new proceeding may be gath
cred from the fact that last February
he annulled nearly 800 concessions ''for
lack of fulfillment of the legal Drovis-
ions" The Daily News says that so long
as large part of Tenezuela's industrial
enterprise is of this character the posi-
bilities for international complications
~, g.
tend to emphasize the argument that if
the United States is to maintain the
Monroe doctrine it must adopt some
fixed, practical policy upon which to pro-
coed when foreign property interests are
injured by the acts of any irresponsible
government ON this hemisphere.
