extort fair treatment, they appealed
to the commission; and the railroad
case was SO weak that they yielded
without making a defense.
II is to meet such extreme and rank
cases as this that the President wants
the commission empowered to revoke
an unreasonable rate and fix new

constantly urged BY opponents of the

Mayor Weaver not only succeeded in
making it clear that he was going TO

firmly the impression that his course

As result CONSERVATION reigns in the

the hero Of the hour
The mayor has net indicated that ne

Castro Is Firm.

On the receipt by the government Of
the news Of Judge CaIhouns appoint
nent to special mission to Venezuela
President Castro took the firmest posi-
BILE stand.
The government newspapers echoed
The official policy toward the appointee
IN an editorial which ridicuIed the idea
OF there being any American claims to
adfudicate. with the possible exception
OF the asphalt case, when is still IN the
courts and therefore not yet open to
discussion.
At just this time the American chal ge
d 'ahaires presented to the minister of
foreign affairs a copy of the rotest
from the United States Government to
the German ambassador AT Washington
against the new debt arrangement he
tween Venezuela and the British and
German boGdhOideTS
This was adversely criticised in gov
ernment circles. coming as 1t did. af-
ter the financial contract had been ac-
cepted by congress. and the government
made the immediate move OF paying half
q million dollars, corresponding to the
first half year, placing that amount 70
the order Of the British and German ie-
cations.
Payment Important
The importance of the payment just
at this time is evident as it is the con-

the part Of General Castro and of Cen

rope. The official press said:
Nobody will have any right. from to-
day on. to interfere IN our internal af-
fairs, because the fulhllment of every
financial obligation by the government
has gone hand in hand with a severe
and serene independence in the orbit of
our courts
Following this the paper published Mr..
Fowen's statement to the press. AS
President Castro dIsiikes Mr. L.oomfs

this was done partially to offset the ef-
feet OF President RooseveIt's letter to
Secretary Taft, dismissing Mr. Bowen

bring out this statement made by Sec

nunlcation of January 10:
