bassy had been advised of the fall Of
Manila just before the cable communi-
cation broke. At o'clock this evening
Sir Julian Pauncefote declared that he
had absolutely no such information.
The Cuban authorities here expect to
receive early information direct from
the camp of General Gomez, brought
by Brigadier- General Nunez, who left
here about ten days ago and succeed
ed in landing a party and making his

Cubans would be strong against the

The understanding that Congress
would eliminate the tonnage law from
the war tariff bill gives much satisfac-
ton at the Embassies and Legations,
France and Germany. The Embassa-
dors from all these countries have re-
ceived instructions to urge the extreme
severity of this tonnage tax upon Brit
ish, French and German commerce COM
ing to American ports. 1t was stated
by one diplomat that. in the case of the
big ship Kaiser Wilhelm Der Crosse, the
tonnage tax would amount to 81 800 a
year, against So, 500 at present. 1t was
remarked in this connection that it was
rather strange to ask foreign Govern
ments to adopt neutrality DEGREES and
at the same time ask them to share in
paying the cost OF war.
The Japanese Minister was notified by
the Foreign Office at Toxic last night
that a decree of neutrality had been is
sued. He has so informed the State De-
partment. The dispatch does not give
the terms of the decree. It serves to
close japanese ports rather sooner than
was exoected.

TAYLOR was one of the most highly in
dorsed Of all the names put forward.
The President also took occasion to in
uufre of the delegation as to Taylor's
ability to furnish an organization of
immunes for the Cuban expeditionary
force. Their services he explained,
were urgently needed, and would prove
of great value on the island.
Colonel Garrett of Nashville, one of
the party from Tennessee that accom-
panied the Congressional delegation,
said he probably could raise a company
of immunes from Chattanooga and
Nashville. and would take steps to this
end at once.
The members of the Cabinet Were
early in arriving at the meeting. At

General Smith were the first to take

THE CABLE CUT.
to Get Amy Word From

LONDON, May Enquiries made at
the offices of the Eastern telegraph
Company show it to have been impos-

Manila since 10 O'Clock yesterday morn

cut. The officials of the company say
that according to their tests from
Hongkong the cable was cut fifty miles
from Manila They think a week or
even fortnight may elapse before it
can be reoaired, as there are no facili-
ties to reoair the cable. and in any
event it will be a difficult task to pick
up the cable in deep water.
