WAR IN VENEZUELA IS NEAR
ARMY OF HERNANDEZ READY TO
ATTACK CASTRO.
Troops Recruited in Colombia by Reb
els for Invasion, Prepared
to Strike.

New York, Sept. 11.-Venezuela
again is threatened with civil strife
The man ready to lead the fight
against President Castro is his en-
envy of long standing, Gen. Jose Man
uel Hernandez Gel Mocho), formerly
Venezuelan minister at Washington
leader of the conservative party and
veteran campaigner.
The news was received in New
York that already the general is neal
the western frontier of Venezuela in
Colombian territory, preparing tc
strike the first blow in an armed con
fiict that he hopes will depose Presi
presidency at Caracas.
1t was only few months ago thai
Gen. Hernandez left New York ant
sailed for Barranquilla, Colombia
When he went he gave out that he
was in i'll health, and was going tt
Colombia to rusticate. 1t was MOI
long, however, before news came tt
his friends in this city that he was
on his way up the Magdelena river
bound for Bogota.
1t was Immediately surmised, and
as later developments prove, correct
ly, that his mission was to confer with
President Reyes, of Colombia, who
also is not on friendly terms with
President castro.
Gen. Reyes, however, would mo-
give to Ell Mocho the material sup
port which he asked for the insurrec
ton, although it is understood thai
he granted to Gen. Hernandez permls
sion to organize his movement OF
Colombian soil. In this he is now
actively engaged. Hernandez is il
Santiago, not far from the Venezue
Ian border, at Los Andes, the native
state of President Castro.
Hernandez also has enlisted the co
operation of Gen. Mantilla, another Of
Castro's enemies, and the popularity
of these two men, combined with the
general opposition to Castro, it is
believed, will give the instruction g
good foothold.

Of Food
the Cause OF
Dyspepsia

If your teeth are mt, chew, thew,
chew, until the food is liquid and
insists on being swallowed.
If teeth are faulty, soften Grape,
Nuts with hot milk or cream, or
allow to stand minute soaking in
cold cream.
There's a reason," as follows:
Grape-Nuts food is in the form
of hard and brittle granules,
intended to be ground up by the
teeth; that work not only preserves
the teeth but brings down the saliva
from the gums so necessary in the
primary work of digestion.
Many people say (and it is true)
that when they eat Grape-Nuts they
seem able to digest not only that
food but other kinds which formerly
made trouble when eaten without
Grape-Nuts.

Alfred Belts beQuest of 100000

graph and telephone lines in Africa Is
hailed everywhere as being as good q
legacy as he could have left the conti-

spite of the wars, explorations and ex-
ploitations of recent years, Africa is

ticeable that the great African million
aires like Cecil Rhodes and Alfred
Belt believed in the future of Africa
They did not regard it simply as
place to make money in, get away

talked and dreamed of the coming
Africa, worked for it while alive and
remembered it in their wills. They
believed themselves to be not merely
extractors of millions from African
soil, but raise and sustain in their
successors a belief in and willing
ness to work for the Africa of the fu-
ture. The South African millionaires
have come in for considerable
amount of criticism, ridicule and
abuse, some of which, 1t must be con-
fessed, was not wholly undeserved.
But, says the New York Press, to be-
lieve in the future of continent and
to work for that future is no small
thing. When the march of time and
events shall have scattered into OBJ
livion the millions of Rhodes and Belt,
their names will still have claim to
remembrance because they dreamed

dreamers, wilt live through many long
years because they saw the vision OF

Troops Supposed to Be Surrounded in
Pinar del Rio Manage to Form
Junction with Men Sent to Their
Relief.

Havana, Sept 10.-Government,
military and railroad officials and the

Sunday evening by men who had ar
rived here from Paso Real with stor-
les that the armored train which left
Havana Friday had met with various
obstacles and it's 800 men, machine
guns, horses and equipment captured.
Story Was Confirmed.
AS these tales were confirmed by
the Western railroads first telegraph
ic advices from Paso Real they were
believed to be true until authentic re.
ports of actual occurrences were wired
by those who had returned to Paso
Real from the scene.
The real facts of the case are that
Col Avalos, who was believed to be
surrounded in Pinar Del Rio city, and
the armored train made junction

ming from Paso Real to 1-3 miles
east of Consolation del Sur, at which
point the rails had been removed, and
replaced locomotive and three cars
which had been thrown from the
track. The insurgents attacked but
were driven off by the two machine
guns handled by the American, Capt.
Webster.
Reports received by the government
say that 200 insurrectionists were
killed in the encounter near Consola
cion del Sur, but these figures are not
considered TO be authentic.
A fight is reported to have taken
place at Guanajay, in Santa Clara
province. There were fierce machete
charges and the rebels retired Sew
eral of them were wounded and five
were captured.
Government Forces Unite.
A large portion of Col. Avalos' force
had come eastward from Pinar de-
Rio for the purpose of making a juno
ton with the machine gun corps. Al
Consolation Del Sur their advance
was disputed by a large band of in
surgents and lively fight ensued
The insurgents were driven off and
several of them were killed or wound
ed. Avalos and his men continued
their journey eastward and made a
junction first with the cavalry force
of Capt. Ravenna, which is securing
ahead, and finally with the disabled
troop train.

Compliments Charge Freight Rates
Favor Their Big Rival.

indianapolis, Ind, Sept. 1.-THE
fight of independent oil companies of
Indiana begun some time ago through
the Indiana state railroad commits
sioner against the Standard Oil com
pany, assumed more substantial pro-
portions Monday, when three indie
pendent concerns filed petitions
against Al railroad corporations whose
lines traverse Indiana.
The three complaining concerns are
the National Refining company, of In
dianapolis; the Tiona Refining com
pany, of Indianapolis, and the Evans
vile Oil company, of Evansville. Each
Of these companies deals extensively
in petroleum and is a heavy shipper.
They are brought directly into COM
petition with the Standard Oil COM
pany.
The petitions were forwarded to the
commission from Cleveland, where
they were prepared.
The principal charge made by the
petitioners is unjust discrimination"
on the part of the railroads named in
favor of the Standard Oil company. 1t
is declared that the present fourth
class freight rate in force in Indiana
the rate which petitioners are COM
PEELED to PAYS much in excess of
rates prevailing in other states for
similar services. This rate, it is
averred, operates against petitioners,
the public, and is not necessary in or
der to yield profit to the carriers"
The petitioners insist that lower
rates on petroleum have tendency to
increase competition, will result in
larger quantities of oil being moved
by railroads, will discourage and large
ly discontinue the practice of distrib-
uting by team and wagon and will in
crease the revenue of the railroad
companies.

MAINE Democrats

REPUBLICANS ELECT GOVERNOR
AND coNGREssMEN BY RE-
DUcED pLURALITIES.
Charles E. Littlefield Wins After Hard
Fight in Which Samuel Gompers
Sought to Defeat Him for Opposi-
ton to Labor Bills.

Portland, Me-, Sept. 11.-Gov. Will
liam 7. Cobb, of Rockland, Republi-
can, standing on platform devoted
almost exclusively to continuance of
the prohibitory law of the state, was
reelected Monday by plurality of
less than 5000, but with few eXcep-
lions the smallest margin of votes
the state of Maine.
Cyrus w. Davis, of Waterville, the
Democratic candidate for governor,
polled one of the largest votes in the
history of the party in this state. His
issue in the campaign was the resub-
mission of the liquor question which
was incorporated in the state legis-
lature four years ago.
LittlefieId Wins.
More interesting from a certain
standpoint was the reelection of Con-
gresham Charles E. Littlefield, Re-
publican, in the Second district by a
greatly reduced plurality. Congress
man Littlefield's candidacy was the
subject of bitter opposition on the part
of Samuel Gompers, president of the
American Federation of Labor, who
asked for his defeat on the grounds
that he had voted against certain Ia
Dor measures at the last session of
congress.
The issue between Gompers and
Littlefield was taken up by the Repub-
lican congressional committee and for
three weeks the district has been the
scene of a hard fight in which Secre-
tary of War William H. Taft, Senator
Lodge and Senator Beveridge and
several congressman were pitted
against the head of the Federation of
Labor.
Plurality Is Reduced.
Mr.. Littlefield's plurality was esti-
mated at about 1000. Congressman
Edwin G. Burleigh, of Augusta, Repub-
lican, was reelected in the Third dis
trict by an estimated plurality Of O.
600 and Congressman Llewellyn Pow
ers, of Houlton, Republican, in the
Fourth district, by a plurality esti-
mated at 1000. The reelection of
Congressman Ames L. Allen, of AL
fred, in the First district, is claimed
by the Republican leaders.
