 SCORES AMERICA
(sneciaI from United Press !

St. Nairazo. France April 23-The steamer Versailles with Former Presi- dent Castro of Venezuela on board reached here at daylight and Castro was among the first to land. He was weak and had the assistance of his nurse. He will go direct to Paris The French government made no attempt to stop his landing. In fact he was treated in every way as a private in dividual.
 At the railway station here a num- Der of Dewspapermen tried to inter- view Castro. He was rather chary of them but in the few words that he gave them he declared that America by pursuing me. has struck a severe blow at the rights of Venezuelan citi- zens and at personal liberty in general Europe will soon repent of her treat ment of me.
 ''The authorities say I am a free man. This is not true, inasmuch as am not permitted to return to Fort De France. Why does France not re- spect the rights of liberty which she so boasTTully proclaims. If I had been free I would have returned to Vene- zuela, formed an army and recovered my power

Nickel Plate common was strong. showing an ad- vance of 23s points. Steel Common was LID half. Reading was an excep- tion to the general strength, losing it's slight opening gain.
 II am-The market continued strong all through the first hour although brokers, representing old time bear traders offered and sold stocks at ire .uuent intervals and tried to bring about a material reaction. This supply was easily absorbed and at the end of the first hour and a. half the market generally had all the gains established with sCme stocks showing advances.
 Government bonds unchanged; other bonds strong and active
 Noon.-In the last half of the fore neon the market ruled extremely quiet with fluctuations generally confined within d narrow range. Low priced issues were prominent with both issues of corn products attracting a great deal of attention.

FINK ASKED TO KEEP HIS HARBOR
 LINE PLEDGES
Voters of Twelfth District Are Signing
 Demand Upon Their Alderman.
His Attention Called to The Fact That Many Citizens of Twelfth Will be Especially Injured by Change of City Line.

Prominent Republican workers in the Twelfth district are circulating for signatures a paper which is termed "a joint communication to George H. Zink, Jr-, representing the Twelfth voting district, in the Common Coun- cil."
 In this communication the attention of Alderman Zir.k is directed to his pledges, which he is said to have made, that he would vote to maintain the city harbor line. A demand is made that he carry out these pledges in his votes as Alderman. The communica- tion follows:
 Dear Sir and Alderman-The un- dersigned, voters in the Twelfth voting district of the city of Bridge port, respectfully submit, that prior to your nomination as Alder man, you stated that you were in favor of maintaining the so-called
 city harbor lines. and you prom ised that you would vote and work against every proposition to move
 the city lines back to the govern
 ment lines.
 ''This pledge you have since. re- newed to committees of your con stituents who have visited you.
 "We now respectfully remind you of these pledges, and also that the Twelfth district is the home of
 many citizens identified with the oyster interests of the city. who will be specially injured if the har-
 bor is reduced in size by the re- location of the city lines at the government lines.
 There is now before the Common Council measure to discontinue the so-called city lines.
 we request you, uDder your pledge, not to vote for this meas
 ure, at least until some new city line is ready to be laid.
 We further request that you, in accordance with your promises. do cast your vote as Alderman at all times against any and every prop oSitiOn to make the said city lines coincident with the so-called gov ernment lineS.''
 The attention of the voters of the Twelfth. it is said. has been fixed up- on Alderman Zink for some time. It is claimed that his nomination was not given to him until his attitude toward the city line had been ascertained. His constituents were therefore much surprised at the lasst meeting of the council to find him voting with the 'grabbers'' against tabling the harbor line measures until the proposed new city line can be considered in a 1eis- urely way. It is alleged that a com mittee of Twelfth district voters called upon Alderman Zink prior to the vote. What took place is not known. But the members of the committee claim that the Alderman said to them that he would vote to table. and that he was not unmindful of his promises.

JURY TO JUDGE ] ]
 SANITY OF
 CAPT. HANS
Special from United Press.)

Especial from United Press)
 Flushing. April 23.-Captain Peter c. Hains may be placed on the witness stand and put through an examination that will allow the jury who will try him for his life, to judge his sanity. This is the idea of John F. Mcintyre, chief counsel for the defendant and is the result of the clash between Mo Intyre and Dr. L. Samuek Manson, alienist for the defense, who said yes terday that Hains is now suffering from acute mania Mcintyre vigor- ously asserts that his client was in sane when he shot and killed Annis and is insane now. To prove this he said this morning that after all the experts have answered the complianceS neces- sary he will put himself on the stand and give the jury practical demon Stration of the exact mental condition of the accused man so far as may be determined by his manner and answers to questions.
 The family of Captain Hains are op- posed to the scheme of Lawyer McIn- tyre and are expected to do all they can to prevent the placing of the Cap tain on exhibition in the court room.
 Mcintyre said that if the expert tes- tinony tended to show the captain sane he would place the captain be- fore the jury. If Justice Garretson re- fuses to have him sworn in view of the defense's contention that he is insane, Mcintyre says he will at least argue 
 to the jury without being sworn. If he finds that impossible he will then, he says. offer the captain as an ex- hibit and try to have him entered in evidence.
 It is the general opinion among those attending the trial that the declaration of Expert Manson yesterday was in accord with the wishes of General Hains who, it is thought, hopes to get his boy free without opening the gates of an insane asylum for him.
 The securing of Jurors Craft and Terhune, Nos. 6 and yesterday, has given grounds for the belief that the jury may be completely finished this week. When court opened this morn ing the examination of talesmen was begun again. About ninety men re- main of the second special panel
 After three jurors had been examin- ed Judge Garretson announced that he had ordered another special panel of talesnen summoned for Monday morn ing In addition to these, he said regular panel of forty men would re- port Monday morning for regular jury duty and they might be used for the HainS jury if necessary.
