COMPANY NOW HAS TWO boats.

Messrs. John Mulholland, Of New
York, J. l.. Murphy. of Atlanta, Go,
p. L. Mcbride. of Kansas City. and
J. NJ. Jackson, OF Fairview, ILL.,, are at
the Palmer House today. having come
to Paducah to purchase boat.
Before noon Mr.. Mulholland had
closed a deal with Capt. A. V. Pick
Ter for the towboat Jessie b.. and she
will be taken at once to Fairview,
Illinois, TO run between Fairview and
Golconda, H., for the Fairview
Transportation company. The con-
sIderation was private. The Jessie
B. has been doing harbor work about
here for some time past.
The little boat Is to be used In
towing barges between point on the
Ohio river near Fairview and Col
conda. The Illinois Central is now
preparing to build a line from Fair
lance of about a mile. The cars of
ore after being taken from the mine
will be loaded onto cars, taken to
the rivers edge over the new line be-
ing built, and there loaded onto
large barge the company owns
This barge will then be towed to
Golconda. a distance of ten or dozen
miles. and there unloaded on the IL
linois Central incline and be ready for
transportation over the company's
lines. The towing of these cars from
the mine to Golconda is what the
Jessie B. Is for. The company already
owns one small boat. the Ruth.
The Fairview mines are getting to
be quite large and important. They
are owned principally by Mr.. Null
holland, who will be remembered In
Paducah as the man who put up the
first money that established the Sea-
coast Mineral company here. He and
l.. C. Garrett had a misunderstanding
and the affairs of the concern were
taken into the courts. Mr.. Mulhol-
land finally forced the other crowd to
buy him out.
Mr.. Murphy. the man who is with
him, is the engineer who is building
the |. c. branch from the mine to the
river and Mr.. Jackson is the superin-
tendent of the mines at Fairview.
They will probably leave some time
today with their boat.

Castro Still Striding About
Seeking Whom He May Devour.

Willemstad, Island of Curacao.
April 12.-The presence in Curacao
of j. III. De Dous, Netherlands
charge at Caracas has revived ru-
mors of probable Dutch interference
in Venezuela to force Castro to re-
lease Dutch sailors who are said TO
be imprisoned unjustly at Puerto
Cabello and Maracaibo. Rous has
been In conference, with officers or
the Dutch warship Kortnaer, sta
toned here, and 1t Is reported that
within a month Dutch warships will
reach Curacao.
Repeated demands have been
made by Holland for the release OF
the sailors, and coerclye action was
recommended by the charge some
weeks ago. At that time II was said
the Dutch government was prevent
ed from taking any action because
of possible Interference of the United
state.
The Venezuelan army Is under
constant drill, and Il Is reported
that there Is much recruiting since
the delivery of the Hay note.
President Castro of Venezuela has
published an ediet announcing that
interest on the interior debt of Ven
ezuela for seven years has been can
oelled aud that scrip bearing inter
est at three per cent will be issued
to replace 6 per cent scrip which
now represents the Indebtedness.
Much of the Venezuelan Interior
debt, which amounts to about sl6,-
800, 900 is held by rrenehmen and
this edict will doubtless intensity
the strained relations between
France aud Venezuela as a result OF
the action against French cable.
