CASTRO AGAIN HELD UP
ON REACHING NEW YORK
Former Venezuelan President Must
Face Federal Inquiry Board.
'Red Tape" He Says.

NEW YORK, July 15.-Gen. Cipriano
Castro. former president of Venezuela,
who was admitted to the United States
in 1913, after being detained by the i'm
migration authorities for six weeks on
Ellis Island, again was denied admis-
sion to this country today when he ar
rived on the steamship vauban from
Port of Spain. Trinidad.
His detention was upon orders re-
ceived from Washington, it was learned
tonight. Gen. Castro was permitted to
remain aboard the vauban to await the
outcome of a hearing before a special
board of inquiry tomorrow.
Old Charges Revived.
Assistant Commissioner of Immigra-
ton Byron H. Uhl asserted that the
charges against Gen. Castro were the
moral turpitude. Mr. Uhl explained
that special board of inquiry in 1913
had ordered Gen. Castro excluded from
the country and that the then Secre-
tary of Commerce and Labor had ap-
proved this action. Gen. Castro, how
ever, sued out writ Of habeas corpus
in a federal court, and was permitted
Mr.. Uhl said. Gen. Castro, who had been
required to furnish bond, voluntarily
left the United States before the ap-
peal was heard by the higher court
Gen. Castro appeared greatly per-
turbed when informed by the immigra-
tion authorities upon his arrival here
that he would not be permitted to come
ashore. He denied that his visit was
of political nature.
Claims Reports Unfounded.
Reports that I have come to New
York for political reasons or for con-
ferences with Latin American leaders,"
said Gen. Castro, ARE absolutely un-
founded I have no political interests
whatsoever and happen to be in New
York simply because I could not go
dfrect from Trinidad to Porto Rico,
where my family now is. I intend to
take the first boat I can get"
Gen. Castro said that revolution in
Venezuela at this time could not sue
ceed for many reasons, despite the fact
that the condition of the country was
bad, both politically and financially. He
deprecated the possibility Of war be-
tween Venezuela and Colombia over
the boundary dispute, owing to the fact
that the difficulties were perfectly ne
gotiable."
Gen. Castro indicated that he thought
his present trouble merely red tape

as Probable Successor.
speeial pispatch to rhe Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
WINCHESTER, Va. July 15.-An-
nouncement of the appointment by Presi-
dent Wilson of Representative James
Hay. for twenty years member of Con-
gress from the seventh Virginia district.
and author Of the Hay army bill, to the
Court Of Claims bench was entirely unex-
pected in the district. but already there
is speculation as to his successor.
Mr.. Hay has represented the seventh
district for the past twenty years. and for
sixteen years has had no opposition. He
has risen in the House of Representatives
to the craftsmanship Of one of it's most
important committees-that of military
affairs He is the author Of the bill pass
standing army of the United States and
federalizing the National Guard and has
other important legislation to his credit.
Mr.. Hay has represented the seventh dis
trict with conspicuous ability and loyalty
to his constituents.
Judge Harrison as Successor.
The friends of Judge Thomas w Har-
rison of Winchester, leading member
Of the Virginia judiciary, are anxious to
present Judge Harrison's name as can
didate for Mr.. Hays seat in Congress.
providing Judge Harrison can be induced
to accept He is a graduate of the Uni
versity of Virginia and has been on the
/. 80 =. beacn aaoout nrteen years. He has
displayed marked fairness and high abil-
lty in the discharge Of his duties.
He has served in the Virginia state SEN
ate and as a member of the constitutional
convention and took a leading part in
framing the present constitution Of the
state. Judge Harrison possesses profound
knowledge of law and has rendered valu-
able service to the state in his long pub
lie career. 1t has been predicted that
ultimately he would become member Of
the supreme court of appeals of Virginia.
Acceptable to Whole District.
While Judge Harrison would accept the
nomination to Congress at great personal
sacrifice the democrats of the seventh
district feel he would be an able successor
to Mr.. Hay, a candidate acceptable to
the entire district and a man fitted in
every way to discharge the duties of the
Office. Judge Harrison is native Of
Leesburg. Loudoun county, and belongs
to family long prominent in public af-
fairs of the state and nation.

May Get Away August 10.

AS for the pending federal child labor
bill and the immigration bill, the
caucus directed that if it appears to be
impossible to dispose of those measures
by August 90, an attempt be made to
reach some kind of an agreement with
the republicans whereby they can be
voted upon next December. August 20
falls on Sunday. and it is the plan Of
the democrats to make their getaway
by Saturday. August 19. if possible.
The decision of the democrats to hur-
much depends upon the attitude of the
republicans of the Senate. The latter,
through their leaders, have said that
they do not intend to filibuster against
the measures which the democrats offer
for consideration. But many of the re-
publicans are insisting they be given
opportunity to discuss fully the meas
ureg which are to come up for consid-
ef1tt0n. There Is no rule which can be
ingo6e4 10 stop discussion and bring a
vote In the Senate. and from past rec
ordo when republican senators have in
aiSted upon discussing fully the bills
yp for consideration 1t appears that
the SenAte majority may find consider
able diniculty IN bringing the session
to . close by August 20, which is only
0ve weeks away.
That the republicans will seize upon
the failure Of the democrats to include
the child labor bill in their program
for this session and will make the most
Of It in the coming campaign seems
probable. Many Of the democratic SEN
ators are anxious to have the bill
passed, but a number of the southern
democrats are strongly opposed to the
measure. and II it was taken up the
majority might discover that some of
its own members were flibustering in
stead Of the republicans.
