MAY APPEAL CASTRO CASE.
Secretary Nagel Disposed to Contest
the Release of Venezuelan.

Secretary Nagel last night indicated he
probably would appeal from Judge
Wards decision overriding the Secre-
tary's order for the deportation of Clip
riano Castro. He has ten days in which
to decide. Officials here maintained that
1t was within the Secretary's power to
issue warrant for the arrest Of the
Venezuelan and deport him as being
Illegally in the United States. Mr.. Nasel
was disposed to resort to appeal pro-
ceedings, however.
The Department Of Justice has began
an investigation Of reports that q fiilibus-
terins expedition against Venezuela was
being organized In the United States in
the interest of Castro. Rumors that q
schooner. said to be the Nina Swim.
which changed hands recently at Glouces-
ter Mass, and Is now on her way to
New Orleans, would be equipped with
munitions of war upon her arrival there
were called to the attention of the De-
partment OF Justice by the State De-
partment. Agents will watch for her ar
rival.

TO SETTLE LAKE TITLE.

Congress 70 1s Called Upon to De-
tsrmins contrevsrtsd Lake Bed Issue.
Special to Times-Republican.
Des Moines. June 30-Congress has
been asked to settle the controverted
lake bed issue in Iowa. The senators
have been asked to secure passage Of
q bill definitely giving to the state Of
Iowa the remaining lakes Of the state.
The supreme court In deciding the
Goose lake case really side stepped the
main question. It did not decide
whether the state or the federal gov
eminent had title to the lake bed, but
did decide that the state had sufficient
interest in the lake to prevent private
parties from draining the lake. The
same principle applies to every me-
andered lake Of the state.
Last week the state executive coun-
ell was asked to take steps. under the
decision referred to, to have Goose lake
drained at state expense ard sold. But
a serious trouble comes up when lake
is included In . drainage district and
there 10 question as to the title Of the
state to the lake bed. There seems to
be no way to settle It except by the
passage Of . special act by congress.
and the attorney general and other
state officials have put It up to the
senator's and members Of congress to
pass such . bill
