Nine. Bloch Acquitted in Paris

Court here to-day.
The tragedy was the outcome Of an at
tachment between Nine. Bloch's husband
and Mrs. Bridgeman, who was a daughter
of Henry Bernard, of Milwaukee. The
acouttal Of the defendant had been re-
garded as virtually a foregone conclusion
owing to the circumstances under which
the crime was committed.

short. The accused woman was con

fence for homicide. rcmarking that he

opinion that, as FAR "a his years Of OBJ

VENEZUELANS Do NOT
FEAR CASTRO'S COMING
Countrymen Think His Threats
of Vengeance Are No More
than Empty Boasts.
MAY BE EXCLUDED HERE
State Department is Consider
ing His Case with View to
Barring Him Out as an
Undesirable Alien.

The coming of General Cipriano Castro
stirred UP much interest in the Nenezue-
Ian colony yesterday, although the news
did not come as a complete surprise TO
those who have followed the movements
of the former President Of Venezuela.
To these persons it was known as long
ago as August that the general contem-
plated q visit to the United States, ana
that fact was printed exclusively in The
Tribune OF August 6. Also, more re-
Gently, The Tribune printed an interview
with General Castro, in Las Palmas,
Canary Islands. in which he declared that
his health was improved and before long
he would undertake to '1iquidate the af-
fronts OF his enemies.
The same purpose is attributed to Gen
eral Castro, now that he really Is on his
way 10 this country. as when he was
only planning his deferred trip. None Of
the Nenezuelans here now nor others
who know him and the situation IN his
country have any thought of HIS trying 20
regain power. at least by means of armed
conflict. His statement about getting
even" Is accepted much in the same light
as many Of his other boasts

Say Castro's Power Is Gone.

The local NeneZuelans who uphold the
government of President Juan Vicente
Gomez are not averse TO permitting Gen
eral Castro TO land in this country, for
they think that If perchance he should
have any revolutionary ideas his poliu-
cal impotence will he proved more quickly
than if he remained in Europe and
boosted there of his power and of the
fear of the Gomez government Of his re-
turn.
General Castro has been too closely

yesterday. Ito be able 20 organize any
movement without its being Immediately
known. Before his steamer sailed for
New York there was a cable dispatch on
the way over telling of his departure. He
is accompanied by body servant named

here he will be watched by Venezuelan
agents as we'll as by United States Secret
Service agents. so he will not have much
chance 10 COnSpire."

veteran of many battles comes t. make
his peace with the American government.

Her story of the conferences ana
agreements between Skelly Mas ana
Wolf and herself was amply corropo-
rated bv her colored maid, Sadie Green
and bv Sol Wolf himself. who waived
immunity when he went before the
grand jury as a witness.
This fact alone was enough to con-
firm the rumor that Wolf has already
decided 10 save himself by helping the

Criminal Courts Building yesterday In
the company of one of the District At
