CASTRO'S OBSTINACY
 BRINGS ABOUT CRISIS
HIS UNTIELDING ATTITUDE IN THE DISPUTE WITH
 FRANCE.

Precipitates Complete Severance of
 Diplomatic RclatiOns--Situation Re-
 garded Officially in Washington as
 Very Unpleasant With Possibilities
 of Serious COnsequences.--Hint of Pu-
 nitive Measures on the Part of French
 Government.
 Washington, Jan. 12 Although the present breach in the diplomatic rela- tions between France and Venezuela, which was announced at the state de- partment to-day, is technically charge able against the personality of M Taigny, the French charge at Caracas, the real issue, as 1t is understood here, is the attack by President Castro upon the properties and franchise of the French Cable company. The president asserts that the cable company had lent active assistance to the Mates rebellion. Therefore he began proceedings in the Venezuelan courts against the company on that score, and also complained that the company had violated the terms of it's concessions in not laying cer- tain coast lines of cable, especially in crossing the Island of Santo Domingo with land wires, subject to frequent in- terruption in times of rebellion on that island. The courts sustained the pres ident's view. and in fact practically took possession of the company's of fees at certain points, when the French government intervened. In the ab- sence of the regular minister M. Taig- ny presented written protest to the Venezuelan government. President Castro regarded this note as insulting to his government, and refused to have anything more to do with M. Taigny. But the French government refused to allow the dispute to be made person. al one, and declared that M. Taigny in his presentment had followed precise ly the instructions of his foreign off, flee.
 At this point MT. Russell, the Am erican minister at Caracas, intervened in the interest of peace, and after many patient exchanges 1t was believed that he had finally succeeded. But while he induced President Castro to with draw a note refusing to do business with NJ Taigny, which the French gov ernment regarded as offensive, he could not prevail upon President Castro to resume his official relations with the French charge. The climax came on New Years day, when the French government, supposing that a satis- factory settlement had been reached, received with the usual honors of the New Years day reception the Venezue- Ian minister at Paris, only to learn that President Castro had refused to do likewise for M. Taigny at Caracas. This omission touched the pride of the French government, which felt 1t had been made the victim of double dealing and deceit, which fact the French ann Ibassador in Washington was not slow to communicate to the state depart ment. Mir. Russell reported his failure to effect a settlement, thereby making himself unpopular in Caracas, and then came a notice from the French govern ment that diplomatic relations with Venezuela had been completely sever ed. There is hint of punitive meas ures on the part of France, and the situation is regarded officially as very unpleasant, with possibilities of serious consequences.

DARING ROBBERY IN BANK
SACHEL WITH SEVERAL THOUS-
 AND DOLLARS ATOLEN
Taken from Counter of Newark Insti- tuition While Man Who Had Just Drawn the Money Turned for Min ute to Speak to Friend--Empty Bag Found Later in Hallway.

AuhcE Ah u ItutAWuFs
 Newark, N. J.. Jan. 12-A daring robbery occurred to-day in the Nation al Banking company in this city when a satchel containing several thousand dollars disappeared from the bank counter, while the man who had just drawn the money turned for a minute to speak with a friend. The police have no clue,
 Laban Dennis, secretary of the George Brown & Co. stone works, went into the bank about noon to draw $3, 150, the amount of the weekly pay roll, which he deposited in satchel, which he had brought with him. AS he started to go out he met q friend and started to speak with him. He placed the satchel on the check shelf, and then turned to his friend, at the same time buttoning up his overcoat. Dennis then turned to pick up the satchel, when he found to his amaze ment that it was gone.
 It is the theory of the police that some one in the bank who had seen Dennis receive the money and count it waited until he turned his back and then walked hurriediy toward the door taking the bag as he went.
 Such proceeding would have taken a thief but an instant to get out in the street, as the door is close to the shelf where the bag lay.
 The empty bag was found this after noon by boy in hallway.

1t is said that Hall is the first lynch

events will prove that the fact that he
is an e~x-convict was an incident with
out significance. Other men are to be
tried who have borne good characters.
If the evidence is produced against
them, it is to be hoped that they will
be accorded no special consideration by
the Jury on that account. 1t must be
understood that lynching is among the
highest of crimes; that its punishment
is certain and as severe as the evil
dence will justify.
1t cannot be doubted hat many
lynchings have been inspired by the
belief that a mob was criminally priv
