Struggling Cubans.
The policy which all the Latin Americas
republics have adopted toward Cuba ia

correspondence recently exchanged be-
tween two OF the most important
One of the countries, which next 70 tbs
struggling Cubans with most potent assist

in movement against Spain
The reply declared that, while the coun-
try was willing TO accede to the proposition,
it appeared wise 20 permit the United States,
which was the nearest neighbOr OF Cuba
ana possessed the greatest interests in the
island. to act first.
It was explained. that the present at
titude OF the United states in regard
to affairs throughout the American con-
tfnent gave an additional reason for re-
lying upon proper action at the proper
time, and it was fitting under the circum-
stances to await their careful cOnsitlera-
tion OF the matter.
The frank statement of President Cres-
pos message two days ago TO the effect
that the Cuban struggle bad naturally
aroused the sympathies OF an free Ameri-
can States, was followed by the guarded
aIlusion TO the laws OF neutrality pre-
venting government action, which. with
Nenezuela's weI-known dependence upon
the United States. is understood to in
dicate sufficiently the attitude of thaE
country in the matter.

BALLINGToN BOOTH TALKS.
Formal Statement of the Commando
Covering the Present Controversy


Covering the Present Controversy.
Montclair, n. J., Feb. GA representa-
tive of the United Press. who called upon
Commander Booth at his home here this
afternoon, has the commanders authority
for saying the following:
Commander Booth is not organizing a
separate Salvation Army. II the Com
mander and Mrs. Booth head any movement
al all it will be probably one of their own
formation as prominent friends have said
that they have q large field before us for
usefulness.
1t has been said by the commissioners
atpresent in command that Commander and
Mrs. Booth have refused to obey orders.
This Commander and Mrs. Booth most en-
phatically and persistently deny. They
have said, as they wrote to the headquar-
tiers OF the Salvation Army in London, that
they could not take another command for
certain reasons well known TO General Booth,
and but for these reasons would have been
willing to have gone anywhere. More
over, they have not received any orders
beyond their peremptory dismissal.
They are not making any plans for the
future Just at present. Indeed, they ex-
press themselves as too worn and weary in
body and mind to undertake the reflection
of such an important problem.
Neither Commander nor Mrs. Booth have,
as has been alleged, consulted the commit
tee which was appointed at the mass meet
ing held at Carnegie Hall in New Y York with
respect to their future work. =
1t is expected that Commander and Mrs.
Booth will make a statement on Saturday
or Monday in reference to the method of
turning over the many properties and re-
spective banking accounts of the movement
to the new commissioner.

An Unpleasant Experience.

Yesterday afternoon Martin Mason
and George Grant got box of giant
powder at the r. II. M. store and
started for the stone quarry with it in
sleigh. They had gone but short
distance when they looked around and
saw that the box was in a blaze.
Grant and Mason left the sleigh in a
hurry and let the horses go on their
own hook. The team finally brought
up at the Hot Springs where Charley
Brossemer and John Garrecht stop
ped it. Brossemer danced around
lively when he saw the burning pow
der and Garrecht rushed into the
house after water to throw on the fire.
Brossemer would have none of that
and took the burning box, powder
and all in his hands and carried it out
into the sagebrush. Grant and Ma.
son followed the team at a safe dis
tance and when they reached the
Springs all danger was over. They
complimented Charley for his pres
ence Of mind and congratulated
themselves that they had not been
blown into kingdom come. They
drove the team back to town and
swore divers oaths that they would
never smoke again while handling
powder.
