Venezuela Torn by Clash of Aspiring
!. Rulers; Hernandez for Better Class
Castro is Again .
After Presidency
Gomez, His Successor. But Mttlc Nor,
Cautious Than Was Former
Executive Of Nation.

Caracas. Venezuela, Sept. S.-An.
other revolution is. sweeping over this
unfortunate republic. and the three
ngures who loom largest and have
most to lose or gain are Cipriano Cas-
tro. Gen. Jose Manuel Hernandez and
President Gomez.
Castro Is the dictator who was driv-
en- out Of Venezuela several years ago.
SO thrifty was he during his short
when he left hurriedly for Europe
he took with him several millions in
cold cash. He lived pleasantly as an
exile in France: but Castro is a ner-
vous little person with the spirit Of
battle In his blood. So he is now at
the head Of desperate band of
rebels who hope to dislodge President
Gomez and loot the country.
Gomez is the man who seized the
rAins Of government when Castro was
depossi.. He has run things a little
more cautiously than sliis predecessor,
but he has continued the system Of
political privilege and monopoly. The
entire country is burdened with taxes
and high prices. Gomez is apparent
~ quite as unpopular as was Castro.
Hernandez represents the better
class of Venezuelans, who wish to see
an orderly and honest government es-
ent an exile in Porto Rico. but he is
the acknowledged leader Of a large
and growing party in Venezuela.
Though he may sometimes have been
guilty Of errors Of. policy and judg-
ment. his honesty is accepted beyond
dispute. He has never sold out.
though a general in venezuela can al
ways get a good price for his army.
The men who were with him twenty
years, ago are with him today.
\ A membe- Of the laboring classes
by birth. Hernandez has stuck with
them throughout his lifetime. He be-
came a revolutionist in 1870. when he
was seventeen years. old. and the
country was In rebellion against the
rule Of President Blanche. He has
continued rebelling ever since. but he
has not been rebel without cause.
The government of Venezuela has
been run constantly for personal
profit.
Hernandez was elected president
himself once. hut the party in power
did him out Of 1t before the returns
were more than half in. He rebelled.
OF course. but that was all the good

and property. according to the report

Plata where It is due tomorrow.
Puerto Plata has been in the hands
Of Dominican rebels ever since the
latest revolution started with the an
nouncement of the governor that the
state had seeded from allegiance to
the control Of the government.
The present danger to Americans
and property comes from the attempt
Of the Dominican government to force
the rebel stronghold to capitulate.
Until the receipt Of today's dis
patches: the state department officials
had not thought the flareup serious.
It is supposed the leader Of the up
rising is Hector Velasquez, one time
provisional president of the republic.
American interests in Puerto Plata
are small. though number Of Porto
Ricans recently entered the business
community there.

OUTLINE POLICY
Of LEGISLATION
Twelve Month Activity of
Congress Is Quite Well
Understood.

Washington, Sept. s.-The program
Of antitrust railroad currency legis-
lation that congress faces for the en-
" we'll outlined during the last week.
President Wilson and the democratic
ledaers in congress apparently have
agre ed upon a plan that will bring
all of the most important reform
contemplated by the Wilson adminis-
tration within the period between
now and the end Of the next regular
Session of congress.
The tariff bill will be In the hands
houee and senate before the end OF
this week. The currency legislation
already has forged to the front, and
promises to dominate congressional
activity within a few days. The pros.
poets tor immediate currency legisla-
tor in the senate have not improved
during the last week, but supporters
Of the administration bill hold to the
hope that by the time the measure
has passed the house. the senate cont
mittee On banking and currency viii
be ready to act.
Trust Legislation First.
In the meantime senate leaders are
announcing that antitrust legisla-
nlents to the railroad laws are to be
among the first and most important
subjects taken up at the regular ses-
SION of congress next December. Twice
within the last week Senator Sim
mons. in charge of the tariff bill in
the senate has headed off attempts to
put trust or railroad rate amendments
on the bill. by the announcement that
these subjects would receive promp:
and effective consideration when the
winter session begins.
President Wilson's IDEAS of anti
trust legislation have been well known
since his administration as governor
Of New JeTsey. He has a general cut
line of what he desires in the way
Of trust control legislation. most Of
1t being embraced in series .,s
seven laws enacted in New Jersey.
This plan undoubtedly will undergo
elaboration in congress: and the in
1uence of republicans as we'll as
democrats will be felt in the reforms

so that railroads would be forbidden
to give special rates to importers.
