New York Sun Special Service.

New York Sun Special Service. -
Washington, Aug. 9.-President; Cas-
tro, is storing up trouble for himself
and the United States will be the
trouble NAL er for this cratic chief ex-
ecutive. 1t all grows out of the asphalt
controversy, and the action Of the SUI
preme. court Of Venezuela, which under
clared forfeited the rights Of the New
York & Bermudez company.
The department of state today re-
ceived advices from Mr.. Hutchinson
the American charge q 'afaires at Car
acas, that the Venezuelan court had rem.
dered a final decree Monday in the Ham
ilton case. affirming in all points the
decision Of the lower courts. The as
phalt concession was originally granted
to Hamilton and was acquired from him
by the New, York & Bermudez com.
feited all the rights of the American
company. Venezuela had conducted its
case in a most high handed manner
and took from the company it's rights
claiming that the company had not car.
ried out it's contracts. This govern
ment has been displeased with the ac
ton of President Castro and shortly be-
fore Secretary Hays death sent a de-
mand to Venezuela that the rights OF
the Americans be protected.
vacation nothing viii be done coward
| enforcing this demand and in the mean
time an investigation will be conducted
by Special Commissioner Calhoun, who
sailed for Caracas two or three DAYS
ago for the purpose Of gathering more
information on which to base action
when President Roosevelt decides tc
call President Castro to account.

SHAW TO LET GO
TO CHASE SHADOW
@ecretary Of Treasury, Says Ru-
NOR, Has Given Resignation
= to the President.
New York Sun Special Service.

New York, Aug. 9.-From a source
which is not official, the announcement
is made today that L. NJ. Shaw, secre-
tary of the treasury, has placed his
resignation in the hands of President
Roosevelt, preparatory to the announce
ment that he will be a candidate for
the presidency on the republican ticket
in 1908. 1t is said that Mr.. Shaw $
successor has been selected. al
Recent developments give the weight
of truth to the report that Mr.. Shaw
has resigned, and the fact that he to-
day addressed the republicans at the
convention in Roanoke, Va, where a
boom already has been started for him
to succeed President Roosevelt, shows
that Mr.. Shaw has not taken unkindly
to the plans of his friends and leaders
of the republican party
That Secretary Shaw planned resign
ing from President Roosevelt IS cab
met has been whispered for some time.
1t started when Secretary Root was
quoted as saying that there would be
several changes in the cabinet before
the meeting of congress, and that Sec
rotary Shaw would be the first to 90.
One story has it that Mr.. Roosevelt,
if he has not selected Mr.. Shaw's sue
cessor, will appoint man from Iowa
or from one of the western states An;
other story says, Mr.. Roosevelt will
name an eastern man for the treasury
and a man from the west for another
place in the cabinet. : &l.

ries, was given the following informa-
ton:
Meeting Was Satisfactory.

. "You can say that this morning s
meeting was entirely satisfactory so far
as it went. We exchanged credentials,
but please do not write nonsense about
credentials. The pleni potentiaries and
the president have known from the out
set that the plenipotentiaries of both
governments came clothed with plenary
powers, and the anxiety on this sub
ject has never been shared by the en-
voys on either side.
"Our next meeting will be held to-
morrow morning. Provided all goes
well we will get down to business
then.'
"Has either side committed itself
about terms?' the envoy was asked.
"No; terms were, not discussed at
today's meeting.'
ENJOYS Well Satisfied.
While the enipotentiaries did not
get down to serious work, they felt
plished today. Extreme cordiality char.
acterized the session.
At this mornings me citing Baron Ko-
mura spoke Japanese, his secretary, Mr..
Honda, translating it into French, while
M. Witte spoke entirely in French.
The expression used by the pleni-
potentlaries that the credentials were
eAcnangeQ, does not tell the whole
story, as Baron Komura did not bring
down his credentials, so that M. Witte
only presented his own, which were
found entirely satisfactory, while Baron
Komura explained what his credentials
contained and promised to bring the
copy tomorrow. Baron Komura was
quite willing to send for them at once,
but M. Witte assured him there was no
reason to delay the meeting for this
reason, and said the original copy could
easily be brought tomorrow and that

Madame Belcher's Experience
A SOCIETY LEADER ESCAPE

In exclusive and aristocratic circles
OF one Of America s leading cities
moved refined, witty and most anna
Die lady whose society was much sought
after In spite of the fact that every
now and then she was, much to the
annoyance of her associates and greatly
to her own modification, obliged to
gulp up large quantity of gas that
was constantly accommodating in her
stomach.
Leading physicians on two continents
had failed to relieve her of fatulent
dyspepsia that was so pronounced that
one could not long be in her presence
without being aware of it.
Some one once spoke of her as
- Madam Belcher' and other inconsid-
crate people repeated the expression.
Reaching the lady's ear it so provoked,
distressed and mortified her that she
thereafter withdrew from society alto
gether.
At last she concluded to try Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets, the advertisements
of which she had often seen in the
papers but had not needed because she
thought them too cheap to amount to
much and not to be compared with a
five dollar prescription from a fashion
able doctor that would cost several dol
lars more to be filled at fashionable
drug store.
To her surprise and Joy. she found
that the tablets gave prompt and posi-
tive relief and few boxes made a per-
feet and permanent cure.
She is no longer madam Belcher,"
but has re-entered society and is one
Of its most sought-after and admired
representatives.
There are belchers in all walks of
life, people who cannot properly digest
their food, which stays in the stomach
and, decomposing. gives rise to gases
that distress and the belching of which
humiliates.
These cases can all be cured cheaply,
privately and satisfactorily All one has
to dc is to go to the nearest drug store
and buy Stuart s. Dyspepsia Tablets,
which only cost SO cents a box, take
them according to the printed diree.
tions, and they will do the rest. II
you have dyspepsia in any form %
stage; if you cannot digest a good
square meal three times a day and get
only strength and satisfaction out of it,
try Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets and you
will be pleased.
