CASTRO LACKS CASH.
Deposed Dictator of Venezuela Shorr
of All His Splendor.

Paris, March 26.-In striking con
trast with his first visit to Paris, ex
President Castro, of Venezuela, ar.
rived here last night, bereft of his
suite of 20 followers, with crestfaller
manner and almost entirely unnoticec
by his fellow passengers from Co
logne, who regarded him with pity
rather that any other sentiment. With
few intimates the ex-dictator dined
at his hotel and then retired to an or
binary bedroom entirely lacking in
the luxury of his former quarters in
the same establishment.
The truth seems to be that he ia in
reduced circumstances, at least for the
moment, as his monthly income of
$50, 600, according to information Civ
en- by member of the household. is
temporarily tied up.
General Castro, with great irrita-
ton, particularly after he had been in
formed that the French Transatlantic
company would not land him at La
Guayra on account of protest of the
venezuelan government, shut the door
IN the face of reporters. His wife.
however, said he would make IN his
mind where to land after he got aboard
ship at Bordeaux.

TRAFFIC PACT IN
OREGON PRESAGED
Hartman and Hill are In Negotiation
In California.
Believed Big Railroad Magnates Favor
Dividing Oregon and Washington
Territory and Thus Save Great
Sums of Money in Construction
of New Lines.

| San Francisco, March 27.--That the
Hartman and Hill railroad forces are
getting together and that an agree
ment IN regard to Oregon affairs is inn
pending became apparent yesterday.
After E. Fl. Hartman and Lewis W..
Hill, president of the Great Northern,
had met at Paso Robes Thursday
night, they came on to San Francisco
together yesterday on Mr.. Hartman 8
private train and were in conference
most of the morning. After their ar
rival here they were met by G. II.
Mutt, general manager of the Nor hern
Pacific; j. r. o Brien, of the Oregon
Railroad a Navigation company and
Southern Pacific in Oregon; E. E. Cal
vim, vice president of the Southern Pa
cific, and William Il. Herrin, and ar
ranged in an informal talk, which oc-
cupied half an hour, for a conference
to take place today between Mr.. Hill,
Mr.. O'Brien and Mr. Mutt for the pur-
pose of discussing traffic affairs. Be-
You'd simply stating that such confer
ence would take place today, the Off
cials refused to give any information
as to what the probable result of the
conference would be, preferring not to
make public any of their plans until
after they have held their meeting.
The presence of Mr.. O'Brien and
Mr. Mutt implies clearly that the con-
ference will relate to points where the
Hartman and Hill lines come into
competition in Oregon and Washing
Ion. There is still time to make a |
Traffic arrangement in regard to bust
less between Portland and Pugetsound,
Tor construction of the Hartman ex-
'enslon northward from Portland has
lot progressed so far but that more
money would be saved by abandoning
ome of the work already done than by
completing the line.

Outbreak is Expected.


Outbreak is Expected.
Paris, March 26.--It is understood
in official circles that the Balkan stu
att IN on account of the irreconcilable
attitude of Austria-Hungary has no"
reached its most acute stage and that a
few days will decide between peace
or war. The efforts of Great Britain,
France and Russia to present formal
settlement of the difficulty acceptable
to Baron Won Aehrenthal, the Austrc-
Hungarian minister of foreign affairs,
having failed, ustria-Hungary is ex-
pected forthwith to deliver an ultima
tum at Belgrade.
After this, if Servia refuses to make
complete surrender, officials here think
that Austria Hungary will dispatch an
army across the frontier. The Eclair
today announces that the absent Off
GERS belonging to the French regiment
on the Eastern frontier have been re-
called. The minister of war says that
certain precautionary measures have
been taken on account of the tension
of the Balkan situation.
The government this afternoon was
officially advised that Russia had
agreed to accept without reserve the
of Bosnia and Herzegovina
by Austria Hungary. 1t is hoped that
this will remove Baron Aehrenthals'
objection to the Servian note formu-
lated by Great Britain, France and
Russia.
