CASTRO! HAVE YOU SEEN HIM?
The Willy Little Fellow Has Given
Uncle Sam the Slip.

Where is Castro? The question
may come to mean lot before q
great while. 1t was one of Secretary
Knox's triumphs to get the little
wasp out of Venezuela, and when he
had been located in Spain it was
thought the trouble with him was
over. But the news dispatches say
that he has sailed from Cadiz for Ha-
vana incognito, and the supposition
is that he is making his way back to
Venezuela for the purpose of stirring
up another revelation, Secretary
Knox, according to the understand
ing, has had secret agents watching
Castro all the time. If that is cor
rect the willy little fellow has given
the detectives the slip.

seven children with her when she
went, When the jury had heard all
of the evidence and counted all of
the children it returned a verdict of
one cent damages in favor Of the az
grieved husband; and ne seemed inn

Cease 10 Exist Today.

washington ID. c., Dec. 3O.-Th,
United States Circuit Courts. which
have constituted an important part
OF the federal judiciary system foi
nearly century past cease their ex-

courts, seventy-seven in number and
covering the entire country is one OF
the reforms provided for In the new
Judiciary code enacted by Congress on
March last, TO become effective Janu-
airy l. 1912. The existence of tho cir.

pensive. The circuit judges do not

WHY HE DECLINED
THE INVITATION
Roosevelt's Reasons for Not At
tending Peace Banquet
are Made Public
OPPOSES The NEW TREATIES
Considers Them Hostile to Honor
Of This Country
Letter is Published. Showing Why Col,
oneI viii Not Attend To-
nights Function.

New York. Dec. 3O.--Roosevelt's rea
sons for declining the invitation TO the
peace banquet tonight are given in a
secret letter made public today.
His objection is based on the sup
position that the pending arbitration
treaties would be endorsed. He objects
strongly to these treaties in their
present form, because he considers
them hostile to the honor and interests
of the American people. lie would con
slider the banquetters' support of these
treaties in their present condition as
IAN unworthy and, however unconsci-
ously. hypocritical move against the
interest of peace and against the honor
and interest of the United States and
civilization" However, il the banquet
tcrs supported these treaties with the
Root and Lodge amendments then
they would be supporting a sincere ef-
fort TO make things a little better,
Roosevelt names number of mat
ters he does not think should be ar
bltrated--including the Monroe doc
trine. Jewish passports, immigration OF
Asiatics and question of state bonds
If the banquetters do not believe these
matters should be- arbitrated. then to
desire to see the treaties ratified un-
amended would be to occupy an i'm
proper, and. from a national stand
point, dishonorable position"
Roosevelt was later appraised by
Millard J. Bloomer that the form OF
banquet invitation was amended so as
not TO include the ratification of Tho
proposed treaties. Bloomer thought
the banquet should be q demonstration
for broad and honest peace move
mcnt.
Roosevelt i'm replying approved this
as "in line with the traditional policy
of this country OF good will and fair
treatment for all mankind" However
Roosevelt says he had decided not ia
accept an Invitation Of any kind, 9TH
erwise he would accept this.
