Berlin, Germany, Dec. 22.--Cipri-
ano Castro, the deposed President OF
Venezuela, is in a furious rage today.
He received by cable a copy Of the
proclamation of Acting President
Gomez announcing Castro's over
throw and warning his that his prop
erty has been conflsticated and that
is he attempts to return to the coun-
try he will be arrested and charged
with the embezzlement Of public
funds The proclamation is signed
by eighty prominent citizens.
The news that his countrymen had
finally risen against him has trans
formed Castro into wild man. He
raved so loudly that he frightened
patients in remote parts OF DR.. Is
rael's sanitarium and declared his in
tention to hire German expert to lay
out plan of campaign against the
rebels.
He swore he would file out a large
army and return at its head to face
the situation and crush the sedition.
He said ne was ready to sacrafice the
greater part of his private fortune to
dc this.
His warlike intentions are discred-
tied here 1t is believed here that he
does not intend to return to Vene-
zuela under any circumstances He
has great sums of money deposited
here.
Castro says the United States has
connived with Holland to bring about
his downfall.

| That there is every reason to beliey.
a satisfactory trade can be made with
the Judds for the wooden mill machin-
cry was declared this afternoon by T.
c. Taylor Last evening a reply was
received from E. Y. Judd and in the
same he offered to sell the mill ma
chinery for $4,000 cash, provided he
be given $4,000 worth of stock in the
company.
The matter of disposing of the mill
machinery has been left with F. E.
Judd of this city and as the different
parties to the trade are not differing
widely it is very probable that the
trade will soon be consummated.
This afternoon Mr.. Taylor wrote to
j, 2. O'Brien, general manager of the
q. X. d \. company, offering to pur-
chase the land on east Webb street.
where it is desired to locate the mill.
Already the local men have gone over
this proposition to some extent with
the railroad people. When Messrs.
Campbell, Buckley and Bollons were
here few days ago they were shown
over the property and expressed a
Willingness to assist in getting the
property for the Pendleton mill
Aside from the questions of secur.
ing the mill site another proposition
of Importance in connection with the
movement to retain the mill is the rate
that can be secured on electrical pow
er. Up to. this time no terms have
been agreed upon between the mill
people and the electrical company. But
it is hoped to secure a suitable rate
from DR.. F. w. Vincent, local mana
ger for the Northwestern gas & cleo
trio company.
Roy T. Bisoph left this afternoon
for Salem to spend Christmas at his
home. However his departure will
not delay the negotiations for the
mill.

Washington, Wee. 23.-Justice
Wright of the supreme court Of the
District of Columbia, today found
President Gompers and Secretary
Morrison Of the American Federation
of Labor, and John Mitchell, former
president OF the miners, guilty, hav-
ing "fagrantly violated" an injunc-
tion granted by Justice Gould to the
Buck Stove & Range company. Pun
ishment was fixed as follows: Comp
ers, one year in jail Mitchell, nine
months, and Morrison, six months.
The case Is the development of one
the bitterest fights in the history Of
the federation. At the head of the
fight was James Van Cleave, who Is
the most prominent enemy of organ
lied labor
The case grew out of the publica-
ton I'm the Federationist the official
organ of the labor organizations, OF
statements, CHASING the Buck COM
pany as unfair" and urging sympa-
thzers with labor not TO trade with
the company.
Gompers Admits Guilt.
In reading his annual report to the
federation Gompers said he violated
the terms of the injunction and assert
cd he did not see how he could do
otherwise.
Frank Morrison. secretary of the
federation since 1897, also subscribed
TO the statements made by Gompers.
His report was also adopted by the
recent convention, in Denver, which
reelected Gompers.
Van Cleave led the fight in the Chi
cago and Denver national conventions
against the anti-injunction planks
proposed for the platforms of both
parties.

+ + + ++++++*++++s 4

Approximately 25 mills tax will be
levied on property within the city Of
Pendleton and lying in the Pendleton
school district if the estimates made
by the city, county and school finan-
ciers are not radically changed. It
is estimated that a levy of that size
will be quite necessary to make up
the various sums needed by the re-
spective branches of government they
represent.
The levy will probably be divided
thus
City tax, IL mills.
County tax. 1O5 mills. 80
School tax. mills.
The first of the levies will be de-
termined this afternoon at a meeting
Of the taxpayers of the school district
held in the court house at O'Clock.
1t will be necessary to raise about
$4,000, the sum needed last year to
finance the city schools during the
coming season. The increase In the
number of mills levied is made to Sc
cure the same amount of money as
based upon the smaller valuation in
the district this year under the new
plan of assessment.
The increase in the city levy. to IL
mills from 2.5 mills, is made neces-
sary through the reduction of values
in assessment, in part, and also
through the abolishment of saloons
which has cut the city out of some
$4,000 per annum in licenses from
liquor sellers.
The tax during the coming season
will be levied to raise about $4,000
more than during last year, or $3.50,
600. The biggest portion of the in.
crease however is in the state tax
which is $4,000 heavier than last year
or $4,000. The other difference in
the levy which amounted to six mills
last season is due to the lowered val
lation of property over the county.
The city's levy will probably be
made this evening, or on Wednesday
evening next and will be based upan
, valuation of sS,665.122 in the city.
Other towns in the county will also
make their levies within the next
week so as to have them before the
county commissioners, the first of the
ear. The levies will be based upon
he following valuations.

Washington. d c.. Dec. 2S.-
Wrlght's opinion is long and charac-
terIed by such utterances with ref
ercnce to the defendants respect for
the courts as follows: Rampant, in
solent defiance, unrefined insult,
coarse affront, vulgar indignity."
Gompers has frequently said he
would rather go to Jail than keep ST.
lent on what he considered an inva-
sion of the rights of the unions.
The justice announced that he
would fix such penalty that would
defer others from following the ex-
amples in outawry. He said he
would endeavor in his opinion to vim
dicate the orderly power of the judi
cial tribunals and establish the su-
premacy of the law.
