FORMER PRESIDENT CASTRO
LANDS AT FORT DE FRANCE
Secures Apartments at Hotel lVanes-
Is Greatly Wrought Up.

Fort de France, April 7.-Cipriano
Castro the former president of Venez-
uela, has taken up his residence, tenn
pOrarily, at least, at this place. He
arrived here last night on the French
steamer Guadeloupe, which sailed from
Bordeaux on March 26, and he very
to the British governments refusal to
permit hiIu to disembark at Port Of
Spain. Trinidad.
AS the port authorities here had re-
cetved no communication from the
French government with regard to
Senor Castor they permitted him to
land without opposition, considering
him simply as private individual. He
was accompanied by his secretary, his
wife and the other members Of the
party continuing on their journey to
La Guaira. Castro has taken apart
ments at the Hotel 1vanes, to which
he withdrew Immediately and denied
himself to all visitors.
The former president was greatly
wrought up over the action of the
British government and when seen on
board the Guadeloupe soon after the
arrival of the vessel he expressed him
self as having been outraged by the
treatment accorded him by the gov
ernments concerned in his interdic-
tion.
Castro does not disguise the fear
that the unexpected intervention of
the United States and Great Britain
may let loose a veritable revolution at
Caracas.

PAYNE TARIFF BILL IN HOUSE.
Advocates of Free Crude Oil and It's
Products Win Signal Victory.

Washington, April This was a
bad day for the republican organiza-
tion Of the house. BY a coalition be-
tween some republican insurgents"
and the democrats, the ways and
means committee was bCwled over and
the advocates Of free crude oil and its
products won a signal victory when
an amendment by Mr.. Morris Of Ne
braska, placing the insignificant duty
of percentum ad valorem on those
articles was adopted by a substantial
majority.
A decision of the chairman that
amendments could not be offered to
the oil schedule other than by the one
covered by the special rule of last
Monday. and which provided for the
removal Of the countervailing duty on
crude petroleum and applying an ad
valorem duty of 25 per cent, was over
turned and not even fervid appeal
by the speaker in an endeavor to rally
the republican forces was sufficient to
stew the tide avowedly against the
Standard Oil company. BY a practi-
cally unanimous woe the counser-
Vailing duty went out as the commit
tee had recommended.
On all other propositions the com
mittee was sustained. The barley
schedule ran the gauntlet without
change. Tea and coffee were placed
Ot Nut Tree ilSL ana IQ6 dutY on 'Dar-
ytes increased from rs cents a ton to

A colloquy, at first humorous but
later developing into personalities, de-
veloped between Mr.. Stanley Of Ken
tuck and Mr.. Clark Of Florida, and
was terminated only upon an objection
by Mr.. Crumpacker of Indiana that it
was against the dignity of the house.
The bill was laid aside and at 5.04 D.
m the house adjourned.
Washington. April T. Onslaughts
upon the senate committee on finance
by prominent members Of congress
have become so vigorous since it be-
came known that the work of insert
ing rates In the bill soon to be report
ed has actually begun that there is
danger Of revision being decidedly Of
an upward trend. it is said, unless
deaf ears are turned to importunate in
terests.
In spite of these conditions. good
progress is being made and Senator
Aldrich, the chairman, said today that
he could predict that when the bill is
reported it will be seen that the re-
vision has been downward. especially
upon the necessaries of life.

Georgia Sampson, charged with the
killing of her husband, Henry Samp-
son, were called to the witness stand

give evidence on which the state is de-
pending to convict Mrs. Georgia Samp-
son of murder. The testimony of the
four members of the Sampson family
was listened to with interest by a
great throng that packed the court
room all day. A sad figure in the
court room was the widowed mother Of
Harry Sampson, Mrs. George Sampson
who will probably be called as a wit
ness tomorrow.
The defense scored several material
J points today through the testimony of
/ the members Of the Allyn family. 1t
was established notably, that shortly
before Harry Sampson staggered into
the Allyn dining room and fell dead
I Mrs. Sampson was seen on The second
floor of her home.
Through Mrs. ALVIN the states attor-
neys brought out the fact that Robert
Manson Of Niagara Falls had written
to Georgia inviting her and a friend,
Miss Mildred Cervoss, to spend few
days in Niagara Falls. Harry quarrel
ed with his wife over the letter. Mrs.
SIMPSONS lawyers state that Manson
had written asking AIRS. Sampson to
act as a chaperone.
A sensational bit Of testimony was
offered by John Ebert, a neighbor who
declared that Harry Sampson had
smokeless powder cartridges in his
possession on the day of the shooting.
