New seeretary OF state.

Washington, Sept. 26. Secretary of
State Adee is now actually secretary
of state, the president having issued
special commission to him as secretary
of state ad interim, the first time since
the incumbency of Mr.. Hunter The
law provides that in the absence of the
secretary the first assistant secretary
shall act as secretary of state during
the absence of the secretary, but
makes no provision for such case as
existed when Secretary Day and First
Assistant Secretary Moore retired
simultaneously; therefore 1t was neces-
sary to issue IA special commission to
Mr.. Adee.

MUSIC AT THE EXPOSITION.
Famous limos Band Engaged to Play for
Six Weeks at Omaha.

Omaha, Sept. 26.-Innes' famous New
York City concert band has been en-
gagged to play at the Trans Mississippi
Exposition daily from September 25 to
October 81. This band is one of the
most successful musical organizations
in the country today. Frederick N.
lnnes, the conductor, first made
reputation as trombone player.
When he took up the trombone it was
known solely as an instrument of per-
eussion, and he astonished the world
by demonstrating it's adaptability to
solo playing, capable of finely express
ing all phases Of passion. In fact he
was the discoverer of trombone music,
the originator of the triple B fat
tuba which he uses. When he
organized his band he gave up from
bone playing, and now he persistently
refuses to play except an occasional
number at one of his own band con-
certs or in compliment to some distin-
guished gathering of friends. He had
just planted his flag on the mountain,
like Excelsior, and came down again
to begin climbing another ladder to
fame.

SOLDIERS FOR CUBA.
Twelve Thousand to be Sent Within the
Next Sixty Days.

Washington, Sept. 2s.-A compre-
hensive program for moving troops to
Cuba 'has been outlined by the war
department and its initial features have
been decided upon. This result is due
to directions given by the president on
September 10, TO the effect that the
details of troops be made for Cuba.
Acting on this Major General Miles
outlined plan for sending two drvi-
sions to Cuba, the first under command
of Major General Wade, to leave in
October, and the second division, un-
der Major General Fitzhugh Lee, to
leave in November. Each division will
embrace about 6 900 men, SO that the
plan is to have some $4,000 troops in
Cuba or on the way there within the
next sixty days. 1t is not contem-
plated, however, that any large num-
Der of this force should be assembled at
any one point in this country or in
Cuba, the desire being to keep them
scattered, as they can thereby be
handled to better advantage. From
the fact that they go to Cuba it does
not mean that they will proceed di-
rectly to Havana. On the contrary,
the outlook is that there will be verv
few troops at Havana, the bulk of them
being scattered through the western
end of the island as garrisons at small
towns, thus gradually putting into
effect the military occupation of the
island

General Wood is practically complete
and in good working order Major Nc
Cleary, formerly attorney general of

They are chosen by committee of so
prominent Cubans whom he believes
to be honest and conscientious.
This committee recommends men
whom its members think would be
efficient in the various offices to be
filed. The choice of men by the com
mittee must be unanimous and must
be made over the signatures of the en-
tire so members General Wood finds
that the plan works admirably Lieu
tenant Blount has been appointed to
codify the Cuban laws.
