WILL CUBA BE SOLD?
Five Commissioners of Spain to Consider the
Question:


Question.
HAVANA June 9.-The five commissioners
nominated at Madrid by Mr. Cos Gayon, Minis
ter of Finance and Mr. Teiada de Valdosera,
Minister of the Colonies, have arrived here
They naturally have not stated what is the
real object of their mission but it is no secret to
any one in Havana. 1t is known that the Mad
rid government sent these commissioners IN
haste as soon as they received official notice of
the resignation of Captain. general Castillo, in
which he drew a vivid but disquieting picture of
the financial and political situation of this island
He added in that notification that his age and
his shattered health would not permit him to en-
tertain the hope of successfully coping with a
condition of affairs which was desperate from
every point of view.
The five commissioners are directed to inquire
into and report promptly to the Cabinet at
Madrid, to whether it is expedient to accept
the resignation of the captain general. and
whether it is prudent to reduce the regular vol
unteer corps of CHba in order to reduce to 2S,-
GOO 600 pesos the budget for the expenses of the
island, as it is desired to do in Madrid and
further, if the volunteers refuse to submit to
any reduction in their force to report what is
the minimum amount for which Cuba could be
ceded to the United States. The commission of
five is also charged secretly by the suspicious
government of Madrid to discover whether it is
true that Aguero was summoned hither las it is
considered remarkable that he had been able to
land so easily by the principal chiefs of the
peninsular party, who wanted to have it believed
that serious insurrection was in progress. in
order to prevent the government at Madrid from
diminishing thR budget of the island, upon
which these politicians live. They are. there
fore, naturally opposed to any reduction of ex-
penses, and to annexation to the United States
Two of these five commissioners did not hesi-
tate to declare, five days after they landed and
had begun to study the general situation that if
this had been the plan of these funtionanes and
peninsular politicians they had been caught in
their own net, as the revolt begun by Aguero has
extended seriously that its direction has passed
into the hands of the revolutionary chiefs, who
have lite disposti n, even if Aguero wished it.
to receive money to stop the fight and to return
to the United States. Up to this time only one
of the commissioners has talked at all. and he
only to few of his friends. He said that
longer possession of Cuba by Spain would be
ruinous to the latter, and that it would be better
to sell the island, and that that would be the
only way out of the complicated situation.
It is not known whether the report which is
to be sent to Madrid by this commission must
have the signature of each of the five commits
sioners or whether each one will be allowed sep
arately to present his views.

TUESDAY, Partly cloudy, cooler
wedther and rain.

The "victim of misplaced conf
dence" in alluring representations,
who has been enticed into buying
an unparalleled bargain" in Cloth
ing, suddenly experiences a disa-
greeable emotion when he chances
to meet an acquaintance sporting
one of the same ''bargains," bought
at the same place, and, on
comparing notes." discovers that
he has paid too much for the
le"-that his acquaintance's
"bargain'' was purchased for con-
siderably less money than his own.
Such disclosures are inevitable
among the customers of establish
ments that do business on the prin-
ciple of asking all they think a
buyer will pay, and taking all they
can-get. None but experts are safe
in trading at places where the price
of an article is graduated according
to the buyers knowledge of its real
worth. 1t doesn't pay to employ
deceptions in business; they serve
but temporary purpose, and soon
must result In embarrassing compIl-
cations. One deception necessitates
another, until finally the structure
grows top heavy, and tumbles down
"a conspicuous ruin.
