Mrs. II. D. Roseer was taken sud- j
denly ill yesterday with a severe at
tack of pneumonia. She was reported :
seriously this evening.
among h*-v r+emngere Senor Μ β toe,
who U <iow referred to as Gen. Matoe.
and 8€T s<r*l generals and other Impor
tant jpf sonnies of Venesuela who
joined Gnner-1 Matoe here. Besides
the leaders of the expedition, the Lib
ertadcr ha? on board 300 volunteers,
and It la understod that she wlil em
bark a cumber of other volunteers j
while on her way to the coast of Vcne-I
cuela.
The behavior of General Matos and;
hie adherents while they were at this!
port was most correct, and when they
left here they had the sympathy of the
whole populace.
General Matos is well known at Fort
de France, where hp has many friends.
The local newspapers have published
articles expressing hopes for the
prompt success of the expedition and
the downfall of President Castro,
whose attitude, the papers add, has
earned for him the enmity of the whole
world.
Previous to his departure from F >rt
de France. General Matos issued a m in-1
ifesto. calling on all his fellow-coau-:
trymen to take up arms.
While the Idbertador was at thU port j
her sides were strengthened by light !
armor and her gun positions w. re pro- ]
tected. Her armament is of the mod
ern type. The Ban High's armament
consista of several guns capable of Br-1
ing 300 shots per minute and four iO
ccntimetre rapid-fire guns. The officer;
is charge of the Ban High's guns is a j
European.
