Caracas, Saturday. Sept 5.--The
sudden departure for Trinidad this
week Of Sir Vincent Corbett, the Brit
isll minister, resident at Caracas, is
an event to which the greatest impor-
tance has been attached in this capitol
because it Immediately followed O.
meeting between President Castro and
this diplomat at Barquisima, two
weeks ago
Although Sir Vincent had the very
unusual distinction of being invited
by General Castro to accompany him
on his gunboat, Restaurador, the min
lister did not accept. but followed
closely after i'm a little steamer be-
longing to the Bolivar Railroad Co.
an English, corporation which owns the
railroad between the Port Of Tuccas
and the interior city of Barquismeto.
Compel Castro to Pay up.
1t is generally believed in Caracas
that the warlike preparations Of Hol-
land, with consequent danger to Great
Britain and Germany, that any use of
force would finally result in a read
justment of the payment of Venezue-
las foreign obligations, has brought
these two nations together in common
interest to preserve the statut quo in
Venezuela.
It Is an assured fact that Baron Won
Seckendorf, German minister, who has
charge of the Dutch interests, will do
everything possible to avoid the ne
cessity of Holland making use of war
ships, which are hurriedly being sent
out to the Venezuelan waters. 1t is
fha navment of S25 900 0D0 OO0 of fha
