OF PEACE In CUBA
Plans Under Discussion for the So

Army Problem.

Havana. Dec 23-Army officers here
are not entirely sanguine that peace has
been absolutely secured IN this island.
Cubans are restless, numbers of them
discontented and many used to life
and fighting in the fields for so many
years that they do not care to return TO
peaceful pursuits. Officers generally be-
lieve that a heavy force viii be needed
to force the quiet that was expected
when the Spanish arms were subcued.
Cuban leaders have not forgotten heir
ambitions and believe that the time :;
now ripe for their fulfllment.
Gen Butler believes that for the pur-
pose of carrying out the work of settling
Cuba there should be a garrison of at
this force at command all outbreaks
against Americ IN authority could prompt
IL be crushed There may, be no need
TO use the troops, but the moral effect
of their presence would be sufficient to
allay tendency among Cubans to pro-
claim against the authority OF the
American Government.
There has been much discussion here Of
late between army officers and prominent
citizens concerning the format:oc OF Gu
ban regiments TO be officered by Ameri-
cans and utilized for garrison duty until
the eventful fate of the island is iecid-
ed
Should such plan be adopted 1t would

BALTIMoRE'S MAYOR
OFFERED A BRIBE

Baltimore. Md, Dec. 23.-When Mayor
William T. Malster announced himself as
a candidate for reelection at a meeting
of the Columbian Club on Tuesday night
he also made the statement that he had
been offered s25o0O0 to get out of the
fight-s20O 600 in stock and $50 900 in cash.
Mr.. Malster refused to say whence the
offer came but it is limited that it
came from a corporation which has been
taking a lively interest in Maryland poll
tics lately, fighting Mr. German at every
step. The mayor said he scorned the
proposition, adding that he would not sell
out the humblest of his supporters, be
the offer what it may.
The matter has created a sensation in
this city. The Columbian Club is a
strong Republican organization, made up
of Masters followers. The statement was
in the city was represented. The Re-
publicans of Baltimore are divided into
two factions, one of which is the Column
bian Club, and the other being the Union
League Club, otherwise known as the "or-
ganization contingent" The latter has the
backing of Senators Wellington and Nc
Comas and the Baltimore and Ohio Rail
road. The president of the club is Will
lam F. Stone, collector of port.

of Tuesday night was Stephen r. Mason

his appeals and arguments are absolutely
Ineffective in cases where the governor

prominent machine leaders declare, has
not succumbed. On the contrary, he pro-
poses to fight for what he considers his
rights. Between now and January ] he
will have conferences with as many Re

possible This is thought to indicate that
gentlemen who are nominated to office
against the advice of Senator Platt will
not be confirmed. The old incumbents
will hold over.
State Chairman b. B. Oden came 10
the city yesterday from Newburg and saw
Col Roosevelt for a few moments, when
the latter called at State headquarters to
go over his mail.
AT that interview it was intimated 10
