sent out yesterday. Thirty car loads
of cattle have been shipped to Den
yer during the last week, 10 of them

broad smiles. as sheep are now
bringing SS.25 per 100 on the Chi

(By Associated Press.)
Caracas, Venezuela, Mar. 2S.-W.
W. Russell, the American minister
to Venezuela, in a note dated March
21. advised DR.. Jose de Jesus Paul,
the Venezuelan foreign minister, that
three pouches of official mail, which
was brought into La Guaira on the
18th by the steamer Zulia from the
American cruiser Tacoma, had been
opened in the La Guaira postofiice.
DR.. Russell said that it was a very
serious thing to break the seals of
navy correspondence and asked for
an investigation.
DR.. Paul answered yesterday, en-
closing a report from the La Guaira
postmaster. He said that the open
ing of the mail pouches was acci-
dental, due to the fact that the seals
on the pouches were similar to 9TH
ers in use in the La Guaira postof-
fee. In addition, DR.. Paul said that
only a prejudiced mind could call
this occurrence very serious" as
not disturbed.
This incident, coupled with the re-
turn of the cruiser Tacoma to La
Guaira today, has caused the great
est excitement in Caracas.
The Ell Constitutional. President
Castro's organ, publishes an editor
ial entitled What Does Roosevelt
Want?" in which it declared that
Secretary Root, under the influence
of the president and inspired by the
Americans holding claims against
Venezuela, is following a premedi-
tated plan to create a conflict with
this republic. The paper says that
the United States purposes to raise
the flag of conquest in South Ameri-
ca and that the American govern
ment does not intend to recognize
the finality of the decision reached
by the Venezuelan courts and mixed
commissions.

eral Wells.
The DiaboIical Plan.
A hole was bored through the
floor about feet in diameter and
the entire room below the sleeping
room was wrecked by the explosion.
General Wells had a fine automatic
Colts revolver of the latest i'm
proved model under his pillow and
this was driven into the wood of the
bed and a great piece was held
tightly in the muzzle of the revol-
yer.
General Wells stated to cores
pondent of The Sentinel that he had
reached home close to L o'clock and
fell asleep at once. He knew no.
thing then until he was recovering
consciousness short time after the
explosion.
Many hundreds of people left for
the place of the outrage at once last
night. General Wells is as cool and
calm as If nothing had occurred. He
is man of great bravery and fear
less of anyone or anything. His was
a miraculous escape.
His family were all away and he
was practically the only tenant of
the house.
General Wells Is manager and al
so president of the great Smuggler-
Union property. He was the presi
dent of the mining company when
his general manager Arthur Collins
was shot to death, the most atroc-
ious crime ever perpetrated In the
San Juan region.
Motive for Crime.
A motive for the crime is that
General Wells knows too much about
Steve Adams. who Is to be tried here
for murder in May. and like Sheriff
Brown In Washington, who knew so
much about the Steunenberg mur-
der, it was intended to put him out

Queer Circumstance.

A queer circumstance in connec-
ton with the dynamiting of the
home of General Wells is that he
was sleeping in little room 1mmed-
lately above the room in which Ar
thur Collins was done to death by
being shot through the window of
the same house.
He was not sleeping on the porch,
as was stated at first, but in a small
alcove room which had been built
above an extension of the porch.
At Early Morning Hour.
The explosion must have taken
place at exactly 3 minutes after 2
O'Clock this morning, as the clock in
the room stopped at that time.
BY close investigation of the
premises this morning 1t was dis
covered the manner in which the
man or men made entry into the
room occupied by General Wells. A
ladder used around the building had
been procured and this was taken
and an entrance effected through
the window of the bath room on the
second floor.
