LANDING AT CURACAO.
VENEZUELAN FUIGTIVES, (United Press Association—Copyright.) THE HAGUE, December 26. The authorities are considering reinforcing the garrison on the Island of Curacoa in consequence of the landing of 95 members of the family of the Venezuelan dictator, General Gomez. They recall that 500 Venezuelans seized the capital, Wlilemstad in 1930, when two Dutch destroyers were sent to dislodge them. A message received on Thursday reported that civil war had broken out in Venezuela after the death of the Dicta-tor-President, General Juan Vincente Gomez, last week.
