To Preserve the Status Quo.

Ii is generally believed in Caracas that
the warlike preparations of Holland with
the consequent danger to Great Britain
and Germany that any use of force would
finally result in a REIMBURSEMENT of the
payment of VeneZuela's foreign obliga-
tons. have brought these two nations to-

the status quo in Venezuela II is an
assured fact that Baron Won Seckendorf.

German English bonded indebtedness
which ties Germany and England togeth-

under Castro. the interest and amortiza-
ton are being punctually paid, and 10
per cent of all the customs receipts out

longer under the agreement now in

1t is feared that if Holland establishes

The Dispute With Holland.

The few diplomats remaining here can
not see how Holland can pretend to
demand anything from President Castro
to alleviate the condition of Curacao, UNI
less the Netherlands government first
makes all necessary amends for the af-
fronts offered to Venezuela. and even then
it is very doubtful if President Castro
can rightfully be prevented from making
his own laws as to commerce with the
neighboring islands of Curacao. 1t is
evident that the difficulty with Holland
is the easiest of all his disputes for Presi-
dent Castro to settle. II is also the least
dangerous. as there are no claims which
require arbitration or the payment OF
money. 1t is merely commercial ques-
ton of shipping with Curacao, which can
be settled by a stroke of the pen remov-
ing the present obstacles.
President Castro already has Germans
moral support in the present crisis, as
this nation has no dispute with Venezuela
and no old claims pending. II is be-
lieved that negotiations are under way
to secure the support of Great Britain,
also, but this is more difficult, as Gen
Castro would have to promise to settle
in a satisfactory way the several mat
tiers already pending between, Castros
government and English corporations. 1t
was to communicate with his government
on these matters that Sir Vincent Corbett
went to Trinidad.
