SUFFRAGE lN CUBA.
Electoral Laws of. Nations
Studied For. Guidance.
MASSES BEING FITTED FOR CITIZENS
Cubans Disupprove the Present Man-
ner of anulnking—New Treasury
System V "ill Be Adopted July 1.
The Bonded Debt of l-lavana.
HAVANA, May 22.—Scnor Domingo
Mendez Capote, secretary of govern—
ment, has been devoting considerable
time to a. study of the electoral laws of
various nations with a View of formu-
lating plans for inauguration here. Uni—
versal suffrage is considered advisable
in some respects, but it would, have
many objectionable features. On the
other hand, Senor Capote thinks an ed-
ucational qualification would not prove
satisfactory unless sufficiently compre-
hensive to exclude those taught espe-
cially for elections. He says the Cuban
league is doing much in the way of pre—
paiing the voters to exercise the elec—
toral function. Day and night schools
are conducted in all the villages for
this purpose, the education being gra-
-tuit0us and the attendance being nu—
merous and enthusiastic. .
The great objection to a property
qualification is that a majority of tbo’se
in cities who formerly had property,
the Spaniards in particular and many
cap‘able Cubans, have been totally ruin-
cd during the 'last three years and
would not be justly treated were a
property qualification enforced. Senor
Capote is carefully considering the
problem and will submit his views to
Governor General Brooke about the
middle of next month, v hen he will ask
for the issuai. cc of 5110119. decree as he
will then have in readiness. The Cu-
bans for the most part, however, dis-
approve the present system of making
laws, contending that Senores Capote
and Lanuza. have too much influence
with the'military administration and
persuade General Brooke to sign de—
crees under a belief on his part that the
people desire them when as matter of
fact the secretaries considered nothing
except their own individual wishes.
Major Eugene F. Ladd, treasurer of
the customs funds, intends on July 1 to
begin a .new treasury system of dis-‘
bu‘rsements by checks, as in the United
States, thus introducing into the small-
er cities of the island modern money
transferrals. The North American Trust
company, acting as depository of the
revenues, will establish branches in the
principal cities and correspondents in
others to facilitate carrying out Major
Ladd's plan.
The special committee that has been
investigating the finances of Havana
reports that the bonded indebtedness of
$9,543,500 has been reduced $33,000 since
Jan. 1. The issues are made recallable
at any time.
Double Murder and Suicide.
BELLEFONTAINE, 0., May 22.—«Mrs.
Rachel Austin and her son William
were murdered in their home at Middle-
burg, this county, Saturday night, and
their bodies nearly cremated in the
house, which was set on fire, and Ernest
Austin, a younger son, lies at the point
of death in a neighbor's house from a
bullet wound in the breast. The latter
claims'that he was awakened by a rap
at the door. When he went down stairs,
he was met by a robber, who shot him,
killed his mother and brother and then
set fire to the house to cbnceal the
crime. Soon after making the state—
ment he became unconscious, and it is.
not believed he can recover: Notwith-
standing the story told by Austin, the
neighbors believe that he killed his
mother and brother and then shot him-
self. although there‘is no positive evi-
ence on that point.

makes .1. public Statement like the
following, all room for doubt disap-
pears and the most skeptical must be
convinced. Its pretty hard fOr our
readers to prove a statement made by
some stianger living in some tar-away
par t of the Union but the endorsement
of neighbors friends and citizens is
the best of proof; N0 bettci evidence
can be had.
Mrs. Alex. McLean, who lives at No.
18 Maple St. is well known to Nor walk
people, beinq the wife of the popular
manager ofa big New York Jobbeis
ding house. She was a sulferer for
years, and was under treatment with a
Brooklyn specialist who' claimed she
had chronic Bright’s Disease. She got
Dean’s Kidney Pills at Hale’ s Ding
store (now Glendenino 58; Co. ’5) and
began taking them. MrsMLcean says.
"I do not care to go into the details of
mycase, Doan’s Kidney Pills helped
me and I feel very much better. I
have great confidence in their merit.”
