union are to have unlimited power TO

the union, and can demand TO be reim
bursed i'm gold by the country issuing
the coin, after six or twelve months

that Secretary of State Foster has sent

Havana warning them that the United
States is strongly opposed to their plan
of farming out the Cuban custom house.
The action of our government may oc-
casion an interesting and important con

out the Cuban custom house at a good
figure without a struggle The profits
to be obtained by such an arrangement
