PATIENCE IS FINALLY EXHAUSTED
Venezuelan - Dictator Must Disavow
Offensive Attitude Toward Trench
Charge d Affairs at Caracas or Ne
gotations Will Be Broken Off.
NORTH CAROLINA CROP BULLETIN
A RIOT IN CHICAGO
N Paris, By Cable. The offensive atti
tude of Venezuela toward M. Taigny,
the French charge d'affaires at Car
acas, has aroused indignation in offi
cial quarters here. Although the Min
istry, has not yet taken definite action,
it is said in the highest quarters that
Premier Rouvier undoubtedly will de
mand that Venezuela disavow the of
fensive action and adopt a course con
formable with the "usual courtesies of
diplomatic intercourse. : The Venezue
lan authorities' are now seeking to
show that their action was directed
against M. Taigny personally, and not
against the French! governments but
officiels here do not accept the distinc
tion between M. Taighy's personal and
official capacity. , ; '
The semi-official Temps Friday
printed a leading article reflecting the
official sentiment on the. subject. It
said that M. Taigny has been ordered
to, insist on Venezuela's withdrawing
her positive refusal to deal with him.
If the withdrawal is made and Presi
dent Castro makes an apology, then the
negotiations will continue. If Venezue
la does not accede it will be, unwise to
Immediately break off diplomatic rela
tions by the withdrawal of M. Taigny,
since this would leave French inter
ests unprotected. The best course would
be for France and the .united States
to make a joint naval demonstration,
similar to that in which Great Britain,
Germany and Italy took part. The au
thorities here say that exchanges will
occur at Washington relative to the
mutual interest, involved Jn the, pend-:
ing controversies. : . "v ,
M. Jusserand, the, French ambassa
dor to the United States, will sail for

- The Observer's correspondent learns
from a very I" reliable source of an
out-oi-town capitalist who is very.
much interested in building a large
cotton mill at this place, if a good
site can be had and some stock taken
by A"axton people. This, we are con
fident can be arranged, as there hace
been several land owners who have
offered sites for, this purpose, gratis,
and this means a mill in the near
future. One of the locations men
tioned above is adjaeent to with the
Seaboard and Atlantic Coast Line
tracks, which would make shipping
easy over either line. We hope to re
port something definite on thissoon.
