Julio César Arana del Águila, (1864–1952) was a Peruvian entrepreneur and politician. A major figure in the rubber industry in the upper Amazon basin, he is probably best known in the English-speaking world through {{Interlanguage link multi|Walt Hardenburg|de|3=Walter Hardenburg}}'s 1909 articles in the British magazine Truth, accusing him of practices that amounted to a terroristic reign of slavery over the natives of the region. A company of which he was the general manager, the Peruvian Amazon Company, was investigated by a commission in 1910 on which Roger Casement served. He was appointed its liquidator in September 1911.[1] He later blamed the downfall on the British directors for ill supervision of the Peruvian staff,[2] of whom he was chief. Arana became a senator for the Department of Loreto from 1922–26 and, as a result of the Salomon-Lozano Treaty, signed in Lima in 1927, Peru transferred his properties in the Putumayo to Colombia. He died at age 88, penniless, in a small house in Magdalena del Mar, near Lima.[3] {{DEFAULTSORT:Arana, Julio Cesar}}References1. ^{{London Gazette|issue=28539|page=7306|date=6 October 1911}} {{peru-business-bio-stub}}{{Peru-politician-stub}}2. ^"The Peruvian Amazon Company: No Return to Shareholders", The Advertiser (Adelaide, SA : 1889 - 1931), Mar 20 1914. retr 2012 9 24 from http://trove.nla.gov.au 3. ^{{citation|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=IqaMEWNvsJQC&printsec=frontcover#v=onepage&q&f=false|title=1493: Uncovering the New World Columbus Created|pages=258–260|author=Charles C.
