Effect of Castro's Return.

The United States government is watch
ing very closely every move that is being
made by former President Castro Of Ven
ezuela, who is now on his way from
Bordeaux to Port of Spain, Trinidad. He
sailed on the steamer Guadeloupe on the
18th instant with the idea of going to La
Guara, Venezuela. direct. At the ins tance
Of the French government the steamship
company declined to land him at that
port, accepting him as passenger con-
ditionally upon his going ashore at Port
of Spain.
II is generally expected that Castro's re-
turn 10 Venezuela will be the signal for
general uprising among his followers.
Even should the government be able to
prevent any important revolutionary
movement. his presence would undoubt-
edly lead to unrest and disturb conditions
that after many years of turmoil have
become peaceful. The United States hav-
ing resumed diplomatic relations with
Venezuela, after arranging for the set
iIement OF questions that have long been
IN dispute. naturally views unfavorably
any event likely to interfere with existing
peaceful conditions.
just what the United States can do to
prevent castro from carrying out his
plans is not clear. That Ii will make
itself factor in preserving the peace of
Venezuela is generally believed here.

France. having interests I'm Venezuela

"rnment. will naturally be in sympathy
with any proper action that the United
States may take to prevent revolution
10 advance the interests of Castro.
To Prevent Filibusterine.
Every effort will be made to prevent
the possibility of any filibustering. expedi-
tions from the United States to furnish
Castro's followers with arms and ammu-
nit act,.o ;-
man without country and it is possible
that he may make some move which will
make him legally a pirate. The special
service squadron of the United States,
now at Guantanamo. and other war ves-
sells on the Nicaraguan coast will provide
ample force to carry out any policy
tain orde: and to protect the interests OF
Americans in Venezuela.
II Is conceded that the United States
government has no right to prevent Cas-
tro from proceeding to Venezuela in any
peaceful manner he sees fit to adopt. In
view. however, of the temper of the
present government of Venezuela and
he further fact that Castro is under
indictment for capital offense, it Is
not believed that even that hot-headed
individual will have the temerity to en-
ter Venezuelan territory except under
the projection of a strong body of fol-
lowers. II is not understood here why
the Venezuelan government objected 10
his going To La Guaira on the French
steamship. as in that case it would have
been an easy matter to have arrested
him as soon az he landed and to have
incarcerated him in some isolated place
where he could do no harm. AS it is he
Is now at large and free to concoct
schemes for his restoration to power. Ii
is possible that the present plan is to
have him arrested at Port of Spain or

trial.

clause, and the bill was signed by
the governor before adjournment"
said c. A. Hale. "The features Of
present interest are:
Il. Spring shooting is prohibited.
go. The season opens September t..
"3. The limit of bag on chickens
is 10 a day.
"The law provides for a board of
control of five to be named by the
governor by April 1. The two chief
game wardens are selected BY the
board of control. They are paid 1 sal
airy of $500 a year and must devote
their time to the work. The regular
deputies are paid a salary for the
time they work, and are appointed by
the chief wardens of their respective
districts, subject to the approval Of
the board of control.
Good Feature Of Law.
"There are a number of good feat
ures in the new law, although num-
Der of good features were eliminated
from the original bill by some Of the
active members of the conference
committee. aQd time was too short to
have taken up'a fight on minority
report which would have resulted in
no legislation along these lines. This
seems to be the object of some of
those that were active in placing the
stumbling blocks and at the same
time pretending to be sportsmen.
81 know Governor Burke Is sufi-
ciently interested in game and fish
protection and propagation that he
will appoint a board of control con-
sisting of good representative, true,
sportsmen, and not the would-be class
and that under our present law our
game will receive the long needed
protection.
Fish Commissioner.
'The law also provides for a state
fish commissioner to be named by the
board Of control. House bill 213 be-
came a law which established a fish
hatchery on Fish lake. which is To-
Gated in the Turtle mountains, Rol-
