New York, Jan. 29.-Testimony ad-
duced to support the contention of
the government that the Hin ore lands

Mesabi range on which royalties were

the steel corporation in 1907 were SIS

of Ven elan Government, but
That &C ~ Refralns From Being
Drawn lnto Controversy.
Washington, Jan. 29.--An explosion
is impending in congress over the
case of General Cipriano Castro, for.
mer president of Venezuela, whose
deportation is insisted upon by the
state department.
A resolution will be introduced in
the house soon calling on the secre-
tary OF state for all the information
In connection with the case. The
state department will be embarrassed
In making it's reply by the necessity
of transmitting some recent CORE.
spondence with Venezuela.
1t appears the department sought
to strengthen its hand by asking
Venezuela to make a formal request
for the dictator's deportation from
New York, but the Caracas govern
ment replied that the matter was one
of domestic concern to the United
States and that it had no opinion to
express. The authorities in Caracas
do no desire Castro's m~artyrdom in
rease as it might make friends of
his erstwhile enemies.
His Exclusion a Problem.
The administration thus must rely
on such evidence as it can get from
Castro. 1t had believed ii would be
possible to exclude him on the ground
that he vas physically i'll. But he is
in perfect health. Castro is a revolu.
zionist, but not an anarchist. He is
no a pauper or a polygamist.
Nor has Castro been convicted of
any crime. When examined by the
immigration officials to induce him
to admit he was responsible for the
murder of General Paroles he refused
to commit himself.
When the Wilson administration
begins 1t is probable the espionage
of Castro and former President Ze-
laya, who was ousted from power in
Nicaragua and forced to seek refuge
in Europe, will cease. The Demo
cratic policy undoubtedly will be to
let the governments of Latin America
work out their own salvation.
