CtBANs FIRST WANT FREEDoM.
ffesident CapOte Thinks Annexation
Would Soon Follow

The New York Herald's special CORES
pendent at Havana sends the following
uhder GATE of Thursday: Domingo Mendez
Capot5, late vice president of the Cuban
republic, and now president Of the execu-
i've commission representing the general
assembly OF the army, expressed to me this
morning his belief that the future of Cuba
would inevitably be annexation to the
United States. This, he said, was the nat
ural outcome of recent events, but he de-
nlsd that Cuban leaders have that aspira-
ten.
The provisional government has been dis
solved, he said in reply to a question
and the sole Cuban authority now existing
Is The general assembly of the army. That
assembly has elected my colleagues and
myself to carry on the general business
during Its adjournment, and principally to
tahe measures preparatory to disbanding
the army.
The object of this commission is two
fold The first and most important will be
an endeavor to raise a sum to pay off our
troops. either wholly or in part | NAV saw
the United states government will be asked
10 1acultate us in raising this sum- We
VIII ehdeaVor to obtain sufficient to pay the
army in full If that is impossible we will
distribute the sum obtained pro rata and
give note for the balance
The second object of the commission is
political one, about which the only state
ment can make is that it is to obtain an
expression on the plans of the United
States government with a view to hearty
cooperation in carrying them out; also to
put before the government the views of
Cuban leaders.
Il may state emphatically the commits
sion has not been authorized to accede to
any scheme of annexation anything save
our complete independence. The desire for
independence has never been stronger
among the Cuban people than at present
Our feeling in this respect is mistaken and
the country believe is with US. If a general
pieblscite were taken today | believe 80 per
cent of the people of Cuba would vote for
independence
AT the same time recognize that an
neXaton TO the United States is inevitable
We believe it will come naturally, that it
will be by the almost unanimous wish of
the people, and that the time will not be
long before this wish is expressed, but we
desire first to see established that for
which We have fought and for which so
many of our bravest and best have given
their lives-the republic of Cuba
I'VE believe the United States is going
to help us realize this wish. We have faith
do everything in our power to carry out
their views. Whatever reports to the CON
trary may be circulated, the Cuban leaders
are in hearty accord with the United States,
and are willing To accede to whatever may
be proposed by the American government
I'VE recognize our Indebtedness to the
American people, and are quite willing to
leave our cause in their hands, feeling sure
that the course they will adopt toward US
will be that directed by honor, justice and
right"

PlOws In Russia.

Although many agricultural implements
Of American manufacture find large sale
In Russia, the plow is not one of them,
and report just received by the Philadel-
phia Commercial Museum from Odessa,
Russia, gives a few reasons why American
plows have not, up to the present time
been successfully introduced into that
country. The report comes from a very
reliable source and indicates that American
plows of the patterns used by the farmers
Of the United States though Of splendid
workmanship and finish, are not adapted
in patterns and price to compete with
those Of Russian and German make Dur
ing the last few years Russian plow manu-
facturers have made great progress in their
line of business, and importations from the
foreign countries formerly supplying the
trade have fallen OFF, but the report holds
out the inducement that American plows
adapted in pattern and price to the pecu-
iiarfties of the Russian trade. may yet find

THANKSGIVING IN LONDON.
American Society Gives n Banquet ut
Hotel Cecil.

A dispatch from London last night says:
The Thanksgiving banquet of the American
Society in London, which was held at the
Hotel Cecil this evening, was a El1rifca-
ton of Ang. o-American friendship. Three
hundred Americans and Their English
guests sat at 4 table under the en;wined
flags of the two nations. Two notable
speeches were made. one by MIR. Henry
White, the American charge daffaires, and
the other by Sir Edwin Arnold, who was
supposed 10 be rearly at the point Of death
from paralysis. but who dragged himself
into the banquet hall. against the orders of
his physicians, leaning on the arm of his
japanese wife and supported by cane.
Mr. White. responding to the toast,
Thanksgiving Day. referred 10 the change
which had come owe: the feelings Of the
two nations with respect 60 each other "as
based upon no alliance at present, ,'or, L
hope, to come, but upon unity II feeling"
1t would be difficult, he sad, to foretell
the consequences shou the two countries
ever decide upon joint action in any part
of the world. 1t would he a combination
difficult to defeat and tending to the add
vancement of the human race.
The Earl of Hasbury, the lord chan
cellor eXtolled Anglo-American friendship.
which, he said. not vain tinsel. but
what the race believed was duty TO be
done
These two nations he declared. had de-
SlTOytI lnS luSd lHdA IL WIS TlSEl LOT one
man to make another his property. The
American people, at the risk OF tearing
asunder the great empire they had found
ed, had determined that every man under
the stars and stripes should be free The
two nations, together. might defy the
world Their al lance might be an idea and
a dream, but it was a noble idea and
splendid dream.
Sir Edwin Arnold concluded the speech
making with an address. the manner Of
which was so eloquent that II could not
be reproduced. No man, he said, could
visit America and not express the graft
tude. attachment and hopes that Tiled his
heart. He concluded:
Your guests salute you Only one who
has known Holmes. Emerson, LonCfellow
and Whitman can tell how. secretly and
shyly, Englishmen love America"

opens that golden gate lives hence
forth in a sweeter and better atmos-
phere. Do but be true to higher in
stincts; do but cultivate candor and
simplicity and fidelity, and have every
hope for you. But let it never pass
from your thoughts how much depends
upon you now if you would secure not
only love but respect. Every married
man and woman passes through a
transition after they come to know
each other thoroughly, and ever after
they are patient with each others
faults and try to keep the fairest face
on all things-try to make the best of
all things-they will find a new bond
of union in this mutual hopefulness
which is the truest Office of love. But
if, when, they find out that they are
each not angels, not altogether per-
feet, they become Indifferent and neg
lectful, then alas for both! Beware
of this. The sum of human happiness
is made up of numberless little things.
1t is not the great things pres
ents, great occasions or great demon
strations of any kind which will make
you happy, but the many nameless
courtesies and surprises of affection,
the neat looks and kind words and gen.
tie ways and profund respect of true
love-it is these little things which,
falling drop by drop like spring show
ers upon the frozen earth, melt away
all that is cold and hard in our natures,
andmake them bud and bloom with full
lluxuriance.-Rev. N. A. Staples, in De-
t troit Free Press.
