You need to use the wildcard in the includes attribute like this...
<fileset dir="." includes="**/Capital/*.txt"/>
I have tested that this works with the following...
<target name="touch">
<touch>
<fileset dir="." includes="**/Capital/*.txt"/>
</touch>
</target>
After running this target, all the files in **/Capital have an been touched.
