Word comes from Washington that
De LONE, the Spanish minister, de-
pends on Mr.. T. B. Reed, who is the
Republican party in the house, to tide
the Spanish cause in Cuba over the
crisis that has been caused by the sen.
ate resolution. And a very funny sto.
ry is told to show why De LONE knows
what he is about.
1t seems that Mr.. Reed holds sine.
cure position, which pays well. When
Ex-Governor Russell, of Massachusetts,,
died recently, he was the insurance
referee for all the companies in the
United States on the question of re-
bate. Where one company takes a
risk and another company complains
that an agreement on rebate has been
violated, the question is submitted to
the referee for decision.
Now, when Ex-Governor Russell died
(so the story goes), a number of Bos'
ton financiers interested themselves in
securing the place for Reed. This
seems simple enough but simplicity is
sometimes nimble. The Boston fnan.
ciers, who proved themselves so friend
ly to Reed, have large interests in su,
gar plantations in Cuba. They mold

high price you are now paying makes
your insurance better or safer, or better
than it would be at less cost, we can't do

that you have been deceived.
