CASTRO NEARING

This Government VIII Back
Claims of Its Citizens
Against Venezuela.

Washington. June 29.-Shortly after
General Ciprfano Castro resumes the
presidency of Venezuels on July 5, he viii
find himself confronted by requests from
the United States for the settlement Of
American claims against his government.
For more than year Castro has not been
bothered by the United States. Mean
time Judge W. ]. Calhoun visited Ven
ezuela and investigated the American
claims and the state department has
been busily engaged in reviewing the
cases and putting them in condition to
be pressed
What seemed to be indifference on the
part Of the United States has been only
caution, and the state department will
take up its work where it is allowed to
rest after the sending of a note to Cas-
tro by Secretary of State Hay, which was
practically an ultimatum-
A request viii be made for arbitration
of American claims regardless of what
action the Venezuelan courts may have
taken or shall take in the future.
Representations covering practically all
the American claims against Venezuela
will doubtless be presented
