FINANCIAL BACKING
ALREADY ASSURED
Revolutionary Movement to Over
throw Castro.

Washington, Aug. 26.-With the full
sanction of the state department 0f
the American government and with
promise of effective assistance from
Holland a we'll organized revolution is
being planned to overthrow President
Castro of Venezuela.
The revolutionary movement, now
being financed in New York and else
where, will become operative directly
after the rainy season in Venezuela,
which is about the middle of October.
1t is expected within few months a
new Venezuelan ruler will replace
President Castro, an object which the
state department, Holland, Colombia
and the Venezuelan malcontents have
every confidence in accomplis hing.
Plans have already been begun for
inaugurating the revolution and finan-
cial backing is not lacking, as money
Ia pouring in from New York, as well
as from other sources. The amount
available to perfect the revolutionists'
rlans may run up into the millions.
The leader in the plan has been
bnsily engaged in mapping out his
campaign for weeks. His first step
was to consult the state department
and he learned from both Secretary
Root and Mr.. Bacon that while the
United States government could not
support a revolutionary movement at
the same time conditions in Venezu-
ella were such that no interference by
the United States need be anticipated.

the affidavit asking him to vacate the
bench. Judge Adams said the action
of the attorneys in preparing the atfi-
davit and filing 1t now is a contempt
of court and under the rules of the
law the affidavit does not present at
this time reasons which will justify
the court in refusing to preside at the
trial. He said he will discharge his
duty and refuse to vacate. The COM
monwealth attorney then moved for a
change of venue to another county.
Senator Bradley, on behalf of the de-
fense, stated to the court that the de-
fendant was unprepared to argue this
motion and the hearing was postponed

Truth and
Quality

appeal to the Well Informed in every
walk of life and are essential to permanent
success and creditable standing. Accor-
ingly, it is not claimed that Syrup of Figs
and Elixir of SIENNA is the only remedy of
known value, but one of many reasons
why it is the best of personal and family
laxatives is the fact that it cleanses,
sweetens and relieves the internal organs
on which it acts without any debilitating
after effects and without having to increase
the quantity from time to time.
1t acts pleasantly and naturally anc
truly as a laxative, and it's component
parts are known to and approved by
physicians, as it is free from all objection
able substances. To get its beneficial
effects always purchase the genuine
manufactured by the California Fig Syrul
Co., only, and for sale by all leading drug

BIG BROKERAGE
FIRM SUSPENDS
Failure of A. 0. Brown 4 Co.
Of New York Announced.
LIABILITIES ARE HEAVY

Concern at One Time Transacted the
Largest Business in the Country
and Had Branches in Many Cities.
Effect of the Suspension on the
Stock Market Not as Violent as
Had Been Expected.
New York, Aug. ga. o. Brown
& Co, one of the largest brokerage
houses in this city, announced their
suspension on the stock exchange.
The transactions of the firm in the
remarkable stock market of last Sat
urday have been under investigation
by the authorities of the stock eX-
change and it was announced that
transactions had been made for the
firms account under the rule which
provides that where a firm Is unable
to deliver stock sold to another broker
the purchaser may buy in the stock at
the expense of the firm failing to
make delivery.
At the height of the boom markets
of several years ago A. o. Brown &
Co. did an enormous business, said to
have been larger than any other bro
kerage house at one time. There were
five branch offices in this city and
many others throughout the country,
but after the panic of last fall many OF
the out of town branches were closed.
At the present time, however, the
firm had offices in Buffalo, Chicago,
Cleveland, Detroit, Erie, Utica, To-
ronto and Paterson, n. ]. The firm
was organized in 1902. Its members
are A. o. Brown, G. Lee Stout, E. f.
Buchanan, Samuel c. Brown and w.
Rhea Whitman. A representative OF
the firm of A. o. Brown & Co. gave
out this statement:
Affairs Badly Tangled.
"The affairs Of the firm are badly
tangled and it was felt necessary to
suspend In order to straighten them
out"
ID. w. Noel has been named as as
signee for A. o. Brown & Co. NO
statement of assets and liabilities is
available as yet, but it is presumed
that the figures will be very large, as
the firm is generally supposed to have
had a heavy interest in the market.
The effect of the suspension upon
the stock market was not so violent
as anticipated by those who knew
how large an amount of stocks A. O.
Brown 4 Co. owed to other firms.
nhe volume of trading increased rap
idly, but prices vacillated and there
was no general movement in either
direction. Houses to whom the sus-
pended frm had failed to deliver
stocks sold were left short of stocks
to fill their own contracts and the
buying in of such stocks to satisfy
their contracts ordinarily would cause
an advance in prices. In this case
there was apparently considerable
selling of stocks because of the un-
usual occurrences of the past few
days and the uncertainty as to what
might be involved in the suspension.

ADVERTISING
FOR POSTMASTER PRICE

Postmaster Price has a right to be
indignant over the highly colored re-
ports that were not only given pub
lication by local sheet noted for its
'yellowness' but circulated to other
papers by that sheet in still more
sensational form than ii employed in
its own columns, regarding the stray
bullet that found its way from the re-
volver of a hilarious Fourth of July
celebrator and passed through the
upper half of the highest sash in the
east window of the post office build
ing and far above the seat of the
postmaster.
The Denver papers had most lurid
headlines about the attempted
assassination of the postmaster. ="
Here is the first paragraph of the
story sent from the office of the local
morning paper TO the Denver News
and Republican:
What is believed to be deliber-
ate attempt to assassnate Edwin
Price, postmaster Of Grand junction,
and one of the most prominent men
on the western slope. was made at
1880 tonight when an unknown
party shot through window of his
private office in the Federal build
ing. The bullet crashed through a
partition within few inches of
where Mr.. Price had been sitting two
minutes before. The entire police
and sheriff's forces are working on
the case, but so far without a clue" :"
