Press of'the Island Comments
on American Rule.
OPPOSED T0 NEGRO COLONIZATION.
General Lualow Prohibits the Car-
rying of Firearlns—Nntional Party
of Independence Yto Organize
at an Early Date. . '
HAVANA, Aug. 4.—El Diario de la
Marina publishes a letter which says
that the condition of the young Cubans
has become very had. A large number
were deprived of their parents by the
war and have been left without support
01' guiding influence. Naturally, in many
cases, they fall a prey to vice, as Is
shown by the very large proportion of
young persons who figure as criminals in
the police dockets. The writer of the let-
. ter suggests the establishment of a home
for waits. This he would have connected
with suitabl tracts of land, where the
children coud be brought up out of
harm’s way and could be taught to till
the soil.
The Dcmocracia of Manzanillo says:
“The proposition, emanating from the
United States, to bring 3,000,000.1'1'negroes:
for Cuban colonization is beyond all right ‘
and reason. Naturally the United States
desires to get rid of what is an encum-
brance to the country, and it may be that
under this pressure there are those who
fancy it would be possible to make use
of these negroes in ‘Americauizing’ Cu-
ba. It looks as if the Americans had
launched themselves here at a time when
the Cubans are exhausted and unable to
resist.”
El Diario de la Marina, citing these
observations, asks Democracia what rem-
edy it has to propose.
The Patl'ia. while rejoicing at the sup-
pression of the Reconcentrado, deplores
the fact that any excuse has been given
to the intervening government for having
recourse to the military law and says
that the civil law should be extended to
protect individuals against such treat-
ment.
Discussing the question of an American
protcttoratc, the Discusion and the Pat-
ria say that Cuba is sufficiently protected
by tlu Monroe doctrine.
General Ludlow, military governor of
Havana, has just issued an order pro-
hibiting the carrying of firearms and carr-
celing all existing licenses to carry re-
volvers.
Surgeon Major Davis has directed that
all the decaying wharfs at Casa Blanca
be destroyed and that the Cafe Marina,
where two cases of yellow fever were
discovered, he put into good sanitary
condition.
The public grounds adjoining the San
Lazaro hospital have been sold at public
auction by the authority of Governor
General Brooke. They brought $20,000
in gold. The purchaser was Senor Ri-
vero.
La Lucha says:
“A meeting will soon be held here of
the elected representatives of the various
local committees of the National Party of
Independence, at which an endeavor will
be made to bring about at the earliest
possible date a general r'cpresentative
meeting of all parties like minded in the
island. At present the Cuban people
lack adequate means of expressing their
will. The government secretaries may
be said to be mere employees of General
Brooke, who has the power to dismiss
whom he chooses. In Gomez the Separa-
tist party did have a high representative,
but the assembly hurriedly dismissed
him. The Cuban National party alone
would not be the legal representative of
the Cuban people.”
Slight Fall I{ille11 Him.
CHICAGO, Aug. 4.—Thcre is grim
irony in the death of Robert Hamilton, a
Dunning poorhouse inmate, over whose
body an inquest has just been held. He
was emplchu in the construction of the
Masonic temple, when he slipped one
day and fell eight stories to the street.
He lived, though badly injured. A short
time afterward he went to the Dunning
poorhouse. He was employed in drawing
bodies to Cavalry cemetery. Returning
from the burial ground the wagon gave
a lurch in crossing a street car track and
the man who had fallen nearly 100 feet
and lived fell four feet and broke his
neck.
Snow Plow Causes Accident.
SCHENECTADY, N. Y., Aug. 4.—A
snow plow was the cause of quite a se-
rious accident in this city yesterday. The
plow was part of a west bourld freight
train, and as it was passing over the
State street crossing it picked up a track
of the trclley line and after whirling it
about lodged it in the wheels in such a
manner that it seemed a wreck. Freight
traffic was blocked for several hours, but
after awhile the snow plow was hauled
on the track and the other obstructions
were removed.

dian ship canals was decidedly broken

ing carried through, exceeding the ton—
nage of the corlesponding month last

l‘he Manet Committee Entertainl the
Municipal Council.
NEW YORK, Aug. 4.——About 10
o’clock yesterday morning the members
of the board of aldermen and council
who had been summoned before the Ma-
zet legislative investigating committee by
Mr. Moss for 'the purpose of giving their
opinion as to the usefulness of the munic-
ipal council to Gr'eatel New York filed
into the supreme courtroom, in which
the hearing is now being conducted. The
morning session was given over to the
examination of rancis T. Lantry, (om'
missioner of cor ction; Alderman How-
ard T. Okie and Councilman Leich. Com-
missioner Lantry was examined as to
the methods adopted by the now famous
architectural firm of Horgan & Slat-
tery in their dealings with the depart-
ment of correction.
Nothing sensational was elicited.
though the interesting fact was brought
out that one of the witnesses objections
to the employment of Withers & Dick-
son, the architects, 1was that United
States Senator Hanna had written let-
ters recommending the iron company
which they represented. During the aft-
ernoon a number of the members of the
municipal council appeared before the
committee and explained their views up-
on questions relating to the city govern-
ment in general and their votes or failv
ures to vote for the bond issues in par-
'- ticular.
The Democrats and Republicans, Citi-
zens’ union men and men who received
the votes of the followers of Henry
George alike testified, and their views, be
it said. were as widely divergent as the
sections of the city 01' the different polit—
ical parties that they replesented. Some
favored a single house of municipal as—
sembly, others adv ocatcd the granting of
mole pow er to botll (ouncil and tne board
of aldermen, and still others thought
mattcls should be allow ed to remain as
they are eat the present time.
Because of engagements of members of
the committee an adjournmc- -1t was final-
ly taken until Tuesday hex .
Heirs'Clainr Two City Wards.
ALTOONA, Pa., Aug. -1.—Vv'rits oi
ejectment were served yesterday by Sher-
ifl" Hare on the owners of property at
Chestnut avenue arid Eleventh street,
comprising the site proposed for the fed-
eral building. The writs were sued out
by the attorneys of the Green heirs, who
claim as their property two wards of the
city, worth about $4,000,000. The eject-
meut proceedings instituted yesterday
will be follow ed by similar action against
other pr'opelty holders. The tract affect—
ed by the suits includes about 1', 000
houses. Many of them are occupied by
workingmen who are unable to contest
the claims of the Green heirs. Counsel
for the Greens have agreed to prosecute
only the wealthy residents. The effect of
the proceedings will be distressing to the
owners of the federal building site. who
have been or'dered to clear the ground ill
60 days.

SEATTLE, \Vash., Aug. 4.—According
to the statement of Philip Sheridan, for-
merly croun prosecutor at Dawson, the
United States has had surveyors at work
'the past two years locating the. Alaskan
boundary line. He said: “I came out
from Dawson with a man named James
Haines 01' Hayes, who for two years has
been at work on a survey extending from
the southern boundary of Alaska to the
Yukon 11.01, and I have every reason to
believe that this work was done under
the direction of the. United States gov-
ernment. I learned from him that he
has been engaged for two y'eals in mak—
ing a topographical sur'vm of the line in
question and that he (nine out on the
Yukon at Port Cudahv.’

ments of the United States and Haiti
have about agreed to submit to arbitra-
tion the three claims of an American cit-
izen for alleged indignities and loss sut-

Germans Try to Stop Our Products.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 3.—Agents of
the agricultural department who are in
Germany report increased activity on
the part of agitators, who are exerting
their influence to curtail to the minimum
the importation of American food prod-
ucts into that country.- While these re-
ports are not made public, it is known
that they represent that greater efforts
than ever before will be made to secure
from the next meeting of the reich'stag
a statute providing for an inspection by
agents of the German government of'all
American products which shall be so
strict as to entirely ignore the certificates
of American inspector's. The agitation is
conducted principally by the"Agrarians,
and it is stated that the press is being
used to quite an unwonted extent to cre-
ate public sentiment adverse to all Ameri-
can food articles. Especial attention is
given to our beef, and liberal use is made. -
