DUTCHMEN START
RIOT IN VENEZUELA
Relations Between Castro and the
People of Dutch West Indies
Severely Strained.
Venezuelan Consul at Caracas Chased
Into German Conculate, and as
Result Troops Are Called Out
to Patrol the City.

Willemstad, Curacao.-The rela.
tons between Venezuela and the peo-
pie of Curacao, Dutch West Indies.
are strained to the breaking point.
Following a long series of what the
residents of Curacao regard as antag-
onistic actions on the part Of the
president, Mr. Castro, directed
against themselves and the Dutch
government, mobs gathered in force
at this capital Saturday night and
Sunday and expressed their resent
ment in an attack upon the home OF
Venezuelan, who had published
statements in Venezuelan papers de-
rogatory to the island, and later held
violent demonstrations in front OF the
residence of the Venezuelan consul;
surrounded the German consulate,
where he had taken refuge, and COM
PEELED the ordering out of armed
troops, so that the consul might be
protected from injury. The demon
stration before the residence of the
Venezuelan consul, Senior Lopez, &C.
cured late at night, and, although no
actual attack was made, it is stated
that two shots were fired from the
consul's house, no one, however, be-
ing injured.
Prior to this, about 10 o'clock at
night. a mob numbering about 1000
gathered in front Of the dwelling Of
a Venezuelan resident, who, it is al
legged, had insulted Curacao In the
Venezuelan papers, broke down the
doors with stones, and, selling the
man, compelled him to sign paper,
which set forth an elaborate excuse
for the publication of the statements
with which he was charged.
The leaders of the populace also
forced him to make a public apology
from the balcony Of his home, while
the crowd below hooted and groaned
in accompaniment. Furthermore,
members of the mans family were
compelled to play the Dutch national
hymn, while the people below shout.

Chicago.-A natural corner in
oats came to sudden end Saturday
when the price of July delivery
dropped cents per bushel on the
board of trade here. The severe
slump caused little excitement, how
ever, owing to the fact that trade in
that option had been very small for
some time past because of the con-
gested condition of the market. Like
lihood that the movement of the crop
will begin on a liberal scale within
the next few days was chiefly respon-
sio.e for the decline.

The Lace Dressers.

Lace dressing has been considered
necessarily unhealthful occupation on
account of the intense heat required to
be maintained in the room. In some
cases the temperature exceeds 100 de.
grees F. and much moisture is evapo-
rated from the wet fabric. The evil
dence brought forth at recent inves-
tigation in England, however, shows it
to be an exceedingly healthful pursuit.
New workers are often temporarily up
set at the beginning by the high tenn
perature, but no cases could be found
where health had broken down. On
the contrary, some ailments-colds, for
instance--were found less prevalent
among lace dressers than among the
workers in other branches Of the in
dustry. Time keepers books showed
few absences from illness. No special
tendency toward lung diseases could
be found, notwithstanding that most Of
the workers lived in poor and insani-
tary localities and led irregular lives
