lTURBlDE.-Extract of letter to the
editors OF The American, dated Havana,
lcth August 1924.
Yesterday anchored in this por: the Bri.
fish brig Spring, Captain Quelch, 1.-THE
same that sailed from Southampton from
Soto la Marina, who reports that of the
Isle OF Wight, he received from on board
a steam boat. the Elk Emperor lturbide
and his family. consisting of l2 persons,
his wife, g sons, neices, chsplans and SER
vants-whom he landed on the 18th uIt.
at Soto la MarIna-So far is official TO this
government But il is further reported
that he was received with open arms by
the people on the coast, that he refused 10
be escorted by par: of the garrison OF Soto
Ia Marina in his journey into the inferior.
and that be had been invited by the most
influential men in The country to return as
the only man who could rescue it from the
misery and anarchy iD which it had been
placed, by the indiscretIon and timidiIy OF
set OF men who had no influence nor Gre
dit, and who were incapable of governing
IT'S also reported that there were four pro-
vinces chat declared in his favor as soon as
they heard of bis Eanding--and another ru-
mour is, that he was assassinated on the
fourth day after leaving the coast.-The
latter is not believed, and it is expected
that the first measure Of lturbide's restora-
ton will be, the annulling The non-inter-
course law, which prohibits all trade be-
tween that country, and Spain and her pos
