Well it does, but it does not do what you want. Did you
realise that your tabular{...} specifies eight columns of
which your actual tabular uses only the first four?
Incidentally They do not like you using [h] after table.
If you really want it here you do not need to use table at all
as you can get the captioning with another package (like ccaption
or caption2 I think)
