TO SETTLE TROUBLE
Venezuela DESTROYS Of Restoring Ami.
cable Relations With World

Paris, Jan. 13.-Jose de ]. Paul, the
special envoy of the Venezuelan gov.
ernment, arrived here this morning
from Bordeaux. and was warmly
greeted by score Of venezuelans.
Indeed his reception was more
sympathetic than that accorded to ex-
President Castro last month. In an
interview. Paul outlined the object
of his visit to Europe. Speaking of
the relations between Venezuela and
the United States, he said:
venezuela hopes and expects to
resume her old time connections and
proposes to settle satisfactorily all
questions pending hSwee1 the two
countries. The arrival OF the Ameri-
can commissioner, Mr.. Huchanna at
Caracas, is an important step in this
direction.
NJ. Paul. considered tho re.cstab-
lishment of Venezuelan consular
service at the French ports first i'm
portant sequence in the resumption
of diplomatic relations with France.
Speaking of the homo situation, he
declared that the downfall of Castro
was the result of a conflict between
the country's ambition to carry on
peaceful internal and foreign policies
and the policies of Castro, which were
rapidly jeoparding the independence
Of Venezuela.
What was the real cause of Cas-
tro'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
proposal OF 1894 whereby she had
undertaken to prohibit traffic in arms
and prevent filibustering expeditions
and revolutionary outbreaks. Having
thus abrogated the treaty, the pres
ence of Hollands warships would
have rendered us impotent to stop
tilibustering."
M. Paul added that Castro's par
tisans considered the policy Of the
government after the departure of the
president re-actionary and blow to
Castro but aroused public opinion de-
manded the adoption Of measures de-
signed to eradicate the evils, to which
Acting President Gomez was unable
to remain deaf. His efforts to in
augurate reform were answered by a
plot against his life by Castro's
friends, although Gomez was always
loyal to Castro. The discovery of the
plot and the course of events obliged
Gomez to liberate the political pris-
oners and authorize the return of the
exiles. ut was not" declared NJ.
Paul, vigorously, "a coup u etat but
only a much needed administrative
decree authorized by the laws of the
country"
What is Castro's present standing
In Venezuelan" was asked.
"It is that of a man." replied NJ.
Paul, opposed to his country's as
pirations and whose personal politics
are incompatible with those of the
Venezuelan people. Venezuelans are
weary Of one mans domination"
And if Castro returns to Venezue-
la," was suggested.
"Ah." responded NJ. Paul. slowly
and with smile, that is for the
people to decide"
NJ. Paul expects to open negotita-
tions with the French government
within the next few days.

by Ill health and brooding over the
death Of his wife, which occurred
nearly two years ago. Constantine
Wickman. waiter, ended his life in
a local undertaking parlor by firing
pistol bullet through his head.
Although but one shot was heard

other bullet in his body, it having
entered the left side of the chest and
ranged around his body to the right
side.

earlier attempt ON his life, and, after
firing the first shot, walked several
