VENEZUELA MAY
HAVE REVOLUTION
Claim Filibustering Expeditions
Are Being Organized.
COLLECTING FUNDS IN GOTHAM
1t Is Reported that Headquarters of
Filibusters Are in Philadelphia.
Venezuela May Ask United States to
Make an Investigation.

Washington, March 13.-The state
department has not yet been Informed
of the reported organization in Phila-
delphia of a flibustering expedition
directed against VeneuzueIa.
1t has had reports from it's agents
in the West Indies of more or less
strength towards the beginning of a
revolution against President Castro's s
government, but these were all traced
to Venezuelan refugees driven out
OF their country by Castro, who had
taken up their residence In some of
the nearby West Indian isalnds await
ing an opportunity to re-enter Venez-
uela under cover of a revolutionary
uprising. The first intimation that this
movement had found any reflex in the
United States was the arrival in this
country several weeks ago of Senor
Andrea, who openly proclaimed him
self the agent of a revolutionary junta
having headquarters at WiIlemstadt
on the island of Curacao only forty
miles distant from the coast of Venez-
uela. The state department took no
notice of Senor Andreas utterances,
and although he is reported have said
he was coming to Washington to ask
the authOrOties to allow the revolution
lists free hand he never made his ap-
pearance here so far as is known. 1t
was presumed that he was engaged in
trying to collect funds in New York
and purchase arms his movements
became matter of great interest to
the Venezuelan representative here.
However, tn yhav made no complaint
to the state department, and the au-
thorities here point out that if evi-
dences of the organization OF fill
clustering expedition in Philadelphia,
where they have been discovered, it
is only necessary to lodge complaint
with the local district attorney and
produce proofs when the courts may
be depended upon to deal with the
case.

Emperor Nicholas has summoned q

by General Kuropatkin that a fresh

sumed by Japan may, after all, be sim.
ply sparring for position, which is
the prelude to peace.
So far as the public-here is con

of, the. sentiment being that if diplo
macy can now bring the warning pow
ers into negotiation, peace will follow
Many dtplomatists believe that terms
acceptable to both are only possible
on the basis not of ordinary peace
but more In the nature of alliance
which would distinctly define anC
guarantee the positions of the respec
tive powers in the Far East in the flu
ture. 1t is certain, however, that Rus
sia as yet has made no move. Here
confusion still reigns in the higher cir
cles and the emperor has not yet de
cided that he must yield.
Some OF the emperor's advisers in
sist that the government is irrevoca
bly, committed to the war, that ii
would be harder to stop than to go on
and that if the war is indefinitely pro
longed, the financial resources of ia
pan are sure to be exhausted before
Russia's, while Russia's prestige
abroad is trreparably gone if she
bends the knee. The situation Is moi
dissimilar to that which prevailed al
the end of the Crimean war, wher
Nicholas l took sudden decision tt
conclude peace on the best terms OBJ

situation of either alternative will
probably govedn the final decision.
The practical difficulties not only il
getting a new army to the front, but
in actually mobilizing it, are appreci

many officers reluctantly declare it az
idle to hope for victory under the pres

mobilization might set the country il

GERMANY MAPS
OUT NEW TREATY

BERLIN, June 10.-The German Gov
ernrnents draft of it's views on the pro-
posed commercial treaty with tho
tinted States IS in course of prepara-
ton for submission to Washington in
July. It IL based upon the reports of
the German Chambers of Commerce and
other cornmercial authorities. The
Duesseldorf Chamber. one of the most
Influential in the Rhenish Westphalian
manufacturing district, sent Prince Won
Bulow a memorial in which these fun
Jamental principles were laid down:
First-The' old Prassian treaty of
1928 must either be formally cancelled
or extended to the German empire with
binding force for the United States.
Seeond--If that treaty be Cancelled
it must be replaced by e treaty OF
comfy and navigation between the two
countries. Among other things, such a
treaty must regulate general navfga-
ton and commerce between them, de-
fine the rights of the citizens of one
country while stopping in the other and
prepare the way for an extension OF
copyright arrangements and the promo.
ton OF postal intercourse.
Third--A tariff treaty with the
United States must be sought in which
one concession shall be balanced by
another fully Approximately equal.
Section four calls Alteration to Sec
ton four of the Dingley law, permit
ting reciprocity concessions for only
two years, and expresses doubt as to
whether the United States Government
is in a position to make a treaty at all
without further legislation, and wheth-
or the United states Government could
get from Congress the right to con-
clude a treaty for a longer period than
Ave year. and then demands that in case
the treaty negotiations lead to no prac-
tical result that the general German
customs be applied to imports from the
United States.
Section five suggests that some alle-
Walton to the export business of each
country could be secured by the United
States continuing the lower rates OF
duties oil German goods In the list pro-
vided for by the Saratoga agreement,
to which Germany would answer with
equivalent computations, but not with
treaty rates throughout as conceded to
other countries.
Section six reads: Whatever ar
engagements are made must contain pro-
Visions FOR supplyine free OF cost infor-
nation about tariff matters, for the
publication of official lists OF goods
with regular supplements and for the
settlement Of tarin differences by arbi-
tration. The treaty must also provide
for contesting tariff differences through
diplomatic channels. and for the free
circulation Of samples OF goods. and
each country must pledge itself to ac-
cept the findings Of the scientific bodies
OF the other state as to the composition
Of food products"
