Castro called the British governments action
q violation of the rights Of man. He Is also
furiously angry with the American government
and the French Steamship Company, the latter
having refused let him continue on board

out Of the harbor by the cruiser Montana

showed much emotion. Then, turning to the
agent Of the steamship company. he thanked
him warmly for the attention which he had re-
ceived at the hands Of the officers of the Guade-

not able to continue the voyage.
