CUBAN CUSTOMS.

Washington, October S.-Mr. Robert P.
Porter had consultation with Assistant
Secretaries Vanderlip and Howell this
morning and went over the special testi-
mony which he had taken as Cuban com
missioner in relation to the new tariff of
Cuba. The testimony shows beyond doubt
that the Santiago tariff will have to be
greatly modified before it can be put in
force for the whole island. The treasury
department will also take up the question
of the collection of custom duties in the
nswly acquired ports and be in readiness
to prosecute this work the moment the
ports come into possession of the United
States. Mr.. Porter reports that we shall
have no more difficulty in doing this than
in making the usual changes in custom
officials at home when the administration
changes.

STATE GRIEyEs FOR HIM.

Boston, October s.-The nominations of
the recent Republican state convention
were ratified by the Middlesex club at Its
dinner at Young's hotel this afternoon.
All the nominees except Attorney General
Knowlton were present as were Senator
Lodge, congressman Moody, Knox and
Mccall and other we'll known Republl-
cans. General Edgar r. Champlin of
Cambridge presided in the absence of
Hon. j. @. A. Bracket, the president Of
the club. After the cigars had been
lighted General Champlin called the club
to order and preceding his introduction of
Governor Wolcott, made vigorous speech,
almost wholly devoted to the question of
the policy of the nation in regard to ter
ritorial expansion, policy which he adj
vocated.
Governor Wolcott endorsed the platform
adopted at the convention on Thursday
and in speaking of the war said: "While
we tenderly mourn the suffering that this
war has entailed, we feel that seldom in
the history of the world have great and
noble results been obtained by SO small
an aggregate of suffering and OF DEATH"
The Governor spoke feelingly of the
death of Sherman Hoar. Senator Lodge

DoNs' DEMANDS.
Greater Than Uncle Sam is Likely to Con-
cede.

Paris, October s.-The United States
peace commissioners began their usual
three hours session at ten O'Clock this
morning. They are understood to have
taken into consideration direct suggestions
and counter-propositions from the Span
iards. of which the Americans now have
enough to engage their attention at the
daily session.
1t may be regarded as quite likely that
the Spaniards have already outlined their
apparent expectations, and that they are
beyond the line of possible aoquiescence
by the Americans The tlatter are now
acting along well-considered lines, con-
sistently and with a definite end in view.
They have to some degree disclosed Amer
loan expectation and determination. The
Spaniards, however, seem unable or
unwilling atithe outset to understand or
believe the Americans have at the outset
set forth their requirements, and that
they are destined to remain virtually I'M
changed by fnesse or counter diplomacy.
Wherefore, it is not unlikely that the
Americans, following the course of fair,
thorough consideration of all the original
or counter propositions, will, to the limit
Of fruitful possibility. accord patient
consideration of each thought projected
by the Spaniards. Thus it is fair to
conclude that the Americans daily ses-
sions during the recess intervals will be
fully engrossed.
While the Philippines have not yet been
reached in the deliberations. this question
is doubtless relatively not far distant, and
at that point is likely to come the full
stress of the diplomatic controversy.
Referring to the Philippine phase of
the negotiations, the Gaulois today
says:
"The question was somewhat touched
upon, though not discussed. yesterday,
but there was enough to indicate serious
difficulties when it does come up"
.. The American commission reconvened
for two-hours' session at q 80 p. m. to-
day.
President Faure, through the United
States am bassador, General Horace Por-
ter, today invited the American commits
sion to visit the Long Champs Course on
Sunday, in order to witness the race for
the prix municipal. The Americans,
through the ambassador, thanked the
President, but declined his invitation.

rable to the roasted as it was stronger and
fresher. The meat he considered good and
it was received on time except in one in
stance. Upon complaint of the second
New Jersey regiment, he investigated
meat which had been rejected by 1t.
Some of this meat was eaten by the
brigade officers and found to be whole
some. The next day the same regiment
rejected a consignment of corned beef. but
this also he found to be eatable. The men
were literally supplied with food and the
location of the camp was good. Still there
had been an increase of disease which he
attributed to the climate and to the
assembling of large body of men. He
also thought decaying fruit and the can-
teen beer mad bad an influence in produc-
ing disease.
Captain Baldridge said there had been
great deal of complaint from the second
New Jersey regiment. he attributed their
troubles partially to the fact that they
had an inexperienced man us oommissary
of subsistence. The company had also
made contract with an outside baker
which gave each company only Al Ia
loaves of bread each day. The full ration
would have given them more than twice
as many. Captain Baldridge said he had
no complaint to make of the officers of
this regiment, except that they were with
out experience. He instanced the fact
that when the regiment was ordered to
Pablo Beach with the exception of two
companies. the main body took all the
rations. leaving nothing to eat for those
left behind.

A CLAM BAKE LYMAN.

Out in the small town of Lyman last
Wednesday fine clam bake was served in
honor of several Shakers who had come
over from Alfred to spend the day. The
bake took place at the summer resi- dence
of DR.. II. Fl. Brock Of this city, and 1t
consisted of the regular "tixings" such
as CLAIMS, Holsters. vegetables and sea
weed, all of which was sent by express
from this city. Within twelve hours after
the CLANS had been dug they had been
taken to Lyman and served. 1t was
novel event, but one greatly enjoyed BY
the Lyman people and their friends.
