PRESIDENT CASTRO, OF Venezuela,
seems TO have contracted the Dom Paul
Kruger fever, but the indications point
to a brief crisis and convalescence in his
case. According to dispatches, he has
his eve on New Orleans and the Missis-
sippi valley. and should the United
States attempt to curb his bellicose at
titude toward France, in order to MAIN
tain the Monroe doctrine by keeping the
French out of the new world, the Vene-
zueIans will attack New Orleans and
invade the country. Castro has given
much trouble during recent years, and
his latest outburst is a serious men'nce
to the peace OF this hemisphere.

FonI PLAY suspected.

Paterson, n. j., March 17.-John
Bennett, of No. II Doremus street, was
found dead this morning in the Valley
of the Rocks on the banks of the Passaic
river, at the foot of Monument heights,
a precipice, 1875 feet high. There are
suspicious circumstances surrounding
his death and the detective force are
now at work on the case. The police
claim that the man flung himself from
the base of a statue commemorating the
soldiers of Passaic. county, who fought
in the civil war, which stands on the
top of Monument Heights overlooking
the city ofPaterson. This story is shat
tered by the fact that the body was
found in a deep mire and the only in
jury caused by the fall was dislocation
of one leg. The cause of death was a
blow over the left eve, which caused 4
fracture of the skull. Cornelius Cook,
a Waterman for the Passaic Water Com
pany, who found the body at 1920 a. m.
recalls sounds of angry voices, and his
story strengthens the belief that Bennett
was thrown from the cliff No money
or Jewels was found on the remains,
while friends assert that he had gold
watch. A woman seen liz the company
of several men, near whore the body was
found, is being looked for by the de-
tectiye force. The dead man was about
IS years old, and we'll known for many
years as an agent of a prominent insur-
ance company, He leaves widow and
i've children.

as the ship forged ahead before the stiff
breeze the bird was still on its back as

year-od sister Mary was assaulted aud
killed in an old blacksmith shop in
Howellville, Pa, Tuesday night, died
yesterday in the Chester county hos

expired the boy recovered consciousness.
and being questioned by the hospital
physicians, he said Mother told me
not to tell She said if | did I'd be
killed. There was a fight in the house.
Mary ran out and ! ran after her. A
man followed US" At this point the
boy stopped, and in answer to further
questioning muttered his first statement
that his mother told him not TO tell.
He died without throwing any more light
on the crime. With the child's in
coherent sentences as clew, the au-

visited the Deluca home at Howellville.
Although the dying lad did not say in
what house the fight occurred, the police
presume be meant his parents home.
District Attorney Lack says; "There
are three theories the authorities are
working on. 0Re is that the children
were killed by a fend who wanted to
wreak vengeance on the parents; the
second, that the children were slain be-
cause they had witnessed crime per-
petrated in the house, and the third,
that the little girl had been assaulted by

tack by the brother, killed him also to

Labrador Expeditions of DiIIon Wallace
 and Mrs Hubbard.

St. Johns, N. F., Nov. 7.-The mail boat Virginia arrived to-day from northern Labrador, bringing James Richards and Peter Stevens, members of Dillon Wallace's expedition to ex- plore the interior of Labrador. They left Wallace and Easton In September in the widest part of Labrador. When provisions were growing scarce Wallace and Easton decided to attempt to reach the Caribou county Before this the party had suffered greatly owing to the scarcity of game, being on short rations for a considerable period. Richards and Stevens gave Wallace and Easton every ounce of food they could spare and suffered terrible privations them selves in reaching the coast The mail boat brought no news of Mrs. Hubbard's expedition, which has not been heard of since it left the coast last June Re- liable authorities along the coast ex> press grave fear that both expeditions have perished, the season having been unusually poor for game, while snow fell on the uplands early in August. It is altogether unlikely that the expedi- tions can reach the coast later in this season. If they fail to do so they must almost certainly perish

MRS. CHADVICK''S LAST HOPE
HER APPLICATION FOR 4 NEW
 TRIAL DENIED.

Must Serve Ten Years in Ohio Prison
 Unless Supreme Court of United
 States Sets Aside Decision of Circuit
 Court of Appeals Handed Down Yes : terday--Judge Censures the Accused.
 Cincinnati, Nov. 7.--Mrs. Cassie IL Chadwick has lost her last hope for a new trial unless the supreme court of the United States shall allow re-hear- ing. The United States circuit court of appeals to-day refused her application for new trial. The opinion of the court was read by Judge Lurton.
 Mrs, Chadwick is in the jail at Cleve- land under sentence to the Ohio penf- tentiary for ten years, having been convicted of conspiring to defraud un- der the national banking law, the spe- ciffc case involving the Wrecking of the Citizens National bank at oberlin, O., whose president has died since the ex- posture of the matter The case was brought to the United States circuit court of appeals on a writ of error.
 In closing his decision the judge de- clared that Mrs. Chadwick ought to have known it was wrong to draw cheeks on a bank when she knew she had no money on deposit there and that the inference drawn by the jury in the trial court that she did the acts with intent to defraud was proper one. x

CRISIS IN RUSSIA IS
 NOW NEARING AN END
OFFICIAL ANNOUNCEMENT IS-
 SUED BY GOVERNMENT.

 Weeks Are No Longer Characteristic
 --Bright Hopes of Speedy Settle
 ment of DiflcuIties-Goyern and
 People Pray for Peace. St. Petersburg, Nov. 8-The follow ing official communication is published this morning:
 "As the diverse regions of Russia are becoming pacified it is evident that the acute crisis, precipitated. by the shock of the new system in collision with ex- piring tendencies, approaches an end. The tragic and deplorable events of the past week in many parts Of the empire may be regarded as the spontaneous reaction of the conservative clements of the population against the manifest ations, perhaps exaggerated, of the rad- ical clements
 ''0n the other hand, t is impossible to deny that in certain cases this reac- tion was favored by the agents of local administrations. s"
 "The government is far from ignoring or assembling this fact, even if by so doing 1t could support the ancient reg ime, while at the same tinne 1t expresses a firm resolution henceforth to march in the way of progress. Among the agents of the administration there exist enemies of the new system who are try ing to oppose by every possible means the realization of reforms.
 u The news from the Caucasus is par ticularly bad to-day. Fighting between Armenians, Tartars and Russians in the Daghostan, Kutais, Torek and Ku' ban districts assumed a rerocious char acter and every attempt of the troops to restore order resulted in the popu- lations turning upon the soldiers and fighting them wbth arms and bombs. Two companies of Cossacks are report ed to have been entirely wiped out. The entire trouble is of revolutionary character but it gives the people an opportunity to manifest their race hat reds, and the most horrible atrocities have been committed.
 According to merchant who has just arrived from Baku, the scenes wit messed there were beyond belief ana not only murder but torture in all forms have been perpetrated. An Ar rnenian girls fingers were cut off one by one and afterwards her arms and legs were amputated by Tartars and she was allowed to expire in untold agony.
