CASTRO LOSES HIS TITLE
VenezueIa High Court Finds that He

CARACAS, Feb. n.-(Vla Willemstad,
Feb. Auto-piano Castro has lost his title
as president of Venezuela, the high federal
court having rendered decision that suf-
ficient evidence had been presented in the
suit brought against him by the attorney
general at the instance q Senor Alcantara,

LORD PIRRIE MADE KNIGHT
Famous Ship Builder Nominated for
Honor in Order of st.
Patrick.

LONDON, Feb. 2l-(Special. Lord Pr
rie, the famous Irish shipbuilder, who has
been nominated as a knight of ST. Patrick
succeeds the earl of Rosse In that honor
Quite aside from his new honor, Lord
Pirrie deserves attention He Is the head
OF the world famous firm of Harland &
Wolff, and might be called the master
mind of the modern merchant marine. Il
is mainly through his efforts that such
great ships as the Oceanic. the Adriatic
and other leviathans OF the deep have
come into existence. Nothing daunts him
in the ship building line. One Of his
friends recently SAID, 'If Pirrie could get
enough water TO float it he would under
take to build a ship 5000 miles long"
The personal story of Lord Pirrie is
fascinating. Though an Irishman, he was
born in Quebec in 1s47, the mere incident
of locality" having little to do with his
nativity. His family have long been resi-
dents in Ulster, At the age of is he was
sppIentieed TO the ship building firm OF
Hariand & Wolff, which. before he Joined
it. was not very pretentious affair. Young
Pirrie took such tremendous personal in
terest in the concern that he attracted the
attic ntion of the head OF the firm. and at
the age OF q became a partner through
sheer ability. Mr.. Harland was a man
not only OF ship building knowledge, but
of ideas, and his young partner caught
from him some Of the fire OF conquest" I"
as It were and resolved to make the nams
OF Harland q Wolff known on the seven
seas.
Pirrie forsaw that the age of big ships
was coming and each year ne induced the
firm to lay down bigger machinery and
to extend their yards so that greater and
greater ships could be built. recent
biographer boasted that after Pirrie Joined
the firm of Harland & Wolff advanced by
leaps and bounds. Until in few years
there was not a tree, or leaf or blade OF
grass on the whole OF Queens island,
near Belfast. where the shipyards are
situated.
It might be said with truth that Il is
solely to Lord Pirries efforts that the
modern great liner las arrived" He
made 1t his bl siness to travel for years
TO various ports, studying types OF ship
ping at first hand. and as the result of
his Investigations he revolutioniEed modern
traffic and became one OF the greatest
maritime authorities of the day.
The fifin of which he Is head pays out
in wages the huge sum of 100000 a week,
employing between 1000 and 1900 men.
In addition to his immense ship building
works Lord Firrie has expended his busl-
ness into general engineering and today
the Pirrie firm represents the largest ship
building and engineering combine" in the
world. Recently 1t absorbed the ALMOST
equally important firm OF John Brown &
Co Of Sheffield and clydebank.

1T is hard to say, but speaking for my

fighting with the United States
Count Kato declared that there could
be no dominant power in the vast waters
of the Pacific. 1--WE have no interests
there" he continued. that can clash with
the United States. We mean to have our
own sphere of influence in our own part
of the Pacific. but not to the detriment of
