There has been friction for some time
past between Holland and venezuela,
although that state OF affairs is the gen.
eral relation Of Castro and the world.
The particular pretext for the venezue-
Ian rulers animosity is the island OF
Curacao, a Dutch colony, situated a
short distance OIL the coast. The port
OF tho island, Willemstad, is the chief
calling place for all lines running to Ven
ezuela, and the colony Is therefore large
ly dependant upon that country for its
prosperity. Although the laws OF neu-
tratity are very strictly enforced in Gu
racao, and rigid measures are taken 10

plots against the Venezuelan govern
ment, Castro took occasion to seize two
Dutch sailing vessels last month, on the
charge that they were bringing aid TO
the Venezuelan malconteuts. The
schooners were later released, but only
after insults had been heaped upon the
representative of Holland in Caracas.
