BIG VESSEL IN POTOMAC.
Ocean Going Steamer Wihelmina Is
Due at Alexandria Tonight.

The steamship Wilhelmina OF the Bull
line of New York. the only ocean going
steamer to make regular visits up the
Potomac, is expected to arrive at Alex
andria tonight and will dock At the pier
of the Alexandria Chemical Company to
unload her cargo. About once in every
three months the Wilhelmina visits Alex
andria with a cargo OF about 5000 tons
of phosphate rock from Port Tampa,
Fla.
The Wilhelmina has been running from
the Florida port to the Virginia city for
several years. and since her advent in
the coasting trade the big schooners that
formerly brought the rock to Alexandria
have discontinued their visits up the
Potomac. The cargo brought here by
the steamship is large enough to last
the Alexandria fertiliZer-making plants
about ten or twelve weeks. A Potomtc
pilot left here Sunday to meet the steanI-
ship at the mouth of the river to navi-
gate her by the Potomac shoals and

Gomez Likely to Be President.

elect a permanent president. There is no
doubt that, if his health permits, Gen.
Gomez, now provisional president, will be
elected to that post. thus insuring a con-
tinuance of tranquility in the country.
1t is understood that the Spanish au-
thorities are keeping an eye on Castro 8

pose to return to Venezuela this govern
ment will be promptly notified.
Nobody In authority at the State De-
partment Is willing to express an opinion

return to Venezuela. There is reason to

CASTRO FORCED OUT
No Hundred Days" in Vene-
zueIa for Former Dictator.
AT CANARY ISLANDS NOW
Longing Eyes Peering Across Sees
Every Place Closed to Him for
Basis Of Operations.

The little coterles OF South and Cen
trail Americans In Washington-the small
nightly gatherings of the junior Latin
Americans, to whom the mere hint of
revolution is as breath in the nostrls-
were thrown into a state of violent agi-
tation by the news of Castro's arrival i'll
the Canaries.
His movements were compared by
young enthusiasts with those Of Napo-
leon on his return from Elba. and these
loyal ones predicted a general uprising
of the Nenezuelans to welcome their old
ruler
Older men. better acquainted with con-
ditions in Venezuela today smiled in
cred,flously- With shrug of the Shout
ders they predicted disappointment and
defeat for the old dictator. if he really
cherished the idea of overturning the
present government in Venezuela and es-
tablisling himself again as the head of
the state.
Castro's Chances Bad.
The reasons for that belief were set out
by one of the South Americans briefly
as follows:
Castro's finances are at low ebb 1t
is true that he has large properties in
Venezuela. but these are heavily. tncum-
bered, and it Is certain that the existing
government of the country would not
allow. him to realize upon them by pass
ing title to a would-be purchaser.
Then he must find a base of operation
for the organization of a revolution, the
Canartes being entirely too distant for
that purpose. He could not do SO at
Trinidad, thirty miles distant from the
Venezuelan coast. because the English
government would not permit it. Be-
sides. his very name is hated In the island,
which is still suffering from the effect of
the embargo he declared against 1t dur
ing the famous Matos rebellion.
The Dutch government is also relied
upon to prevent him from making
Curacao a base of operation. though the
island is we'll located for such a purpose.
He certainly would not be allowed to
operate in Cuba. because of the close I'M
derstanding between the government Of
that island and the State Department
here.
