ness had entailed lung trouble King
Manuel. attired in the uniform of a

1t was noted generally that the king
was very pale.
1t is said that the duke of Oporto,
the kings uncle and heir apparent to
the Portuguese throne, has declared
nothing could induce him to assume
the crown. Under such circumstances
as there is no other descendant of the
royal family in direct line OF success
sion, the monarchical form of govern

Diplomat Will Have Charge OF
Negotiations for Settlement

Declares Real Cause of Castro's
Fall Due to Imninence of
Revolution

PARIS, Jan. 1o.-Jose de j. Paul,
special envoy of. Venezuela. arrived
here this evening from Bordeaux and
was warmly greeted by a score of
Venezuelans.
M Paul considered the re-establish-
ment of the Venezuelan consular .serv-
ice at the French ports of the most
important sequel in the resumption of
diplomatic relations with France He
declared Castro's downfall was the re-
suit OF conflict between the country s
ambition to carry on peaceful internal
and Foreign policies and the policies
OF Castro, which were rapidly leopard
lzing Venezuelan independence.
What was the real cause of Castro's
fall? NJ Paul was asked.
1t was brought about" replied the
envoy, by the necessity of averting a
revolution 1t must be remembered
that Holland practically abrogated the
protocol of 1894, whereby she had un-
dertaken to prohibit traffic in arms and
prevent filibustering expeditions and
revolutionary outbreaks. Having thus
abrogated the treaty, the presence of
HoIlands warships would have rem
dered us impotent to stop fIibuster-
ing"
"Castro's present standing in Vene-
zuela, NJ Paul said, "is that of a man
opposed to his country's aspirations.
Venezuelans are weary of one mans
domination
NJ Paul expects to open negotiations
with the French government within a
few days.
