municated to his colleagues the views
of the European and American press
in regard to the new ministry. He
points out that the foreign newspapers
are almost unanimously of the opinion
that the program of Senior Segasta,
the new premier, has caused an i'm
portant change in the attitude of the
Washington cabinet, leading to the
belief that the Cuban question will
now enter upon more favorable
phase and demonstrating that the
steps taken by the ministry have had
an excellent effect in showing that
the government is choosing practical
means to solve the existing difficulties
The minister for the colonies, Senor
Moret, announced at the cabinet meet
ing that with view to proving the
sincerity of the governments promise
to grant autonomy to Cuba, he has
telegraphed to lor Montoro, leader
of the Autononist party, asking him
to nominate candidates for appoint
meDt for some of the important posts
under the Cuban administration.
A semi official statement, issued
after the cabinet NEE ting, says that
by employing native volun teers in
Cuba instead of European troops the
crease and the operations against the
insurgents would be conducted more
rapidly.

Lansing, Sept. 11.-Replying to an in
quiry from Superintendent a. j. Muir
ray, of the state public school, Attor-
ney-General Maynard gave an opinion
in which he holds that the attendant
from the state public school has no
legal authority to approve of homes
for children sent out by the school,
that duty being vested by law eXclu-
sively in the agent of the state public
school and the county agent of the
state board of corrections and charities.
The board of control of the school. it
is held, has no power to delegate the
performance Of this duty to any other
person.
1t is understood that Superintendent
Murray has disagreed with the board
upon the question and the opinion of
the Encouragement sustains the views
taken by the former.
