HYATT CUT THE RED TAPE.


New York. Sept. 2O.--When Stephen
Barton, chairman OF the Central Cuban
relief committee and chairman Of the
Red Cross executive committee, returned
from vacation to his Office in this city
he learned that during his absence Chas.
A. Scairel, the treasurer OF the American
National Red Cross, and Red Cross Agent
Hyatt at Key West had solved the knot,
ty problem Of supplying the Gubans with
Provisions-.a problem which has proved
too difficult for Miss Clara Barton and
which caused her to give up her work in
Cuba and return to the United States.
Miss Barton. it will be remembered,
was told she could not land a cargo of
supplies in Havana without first paying
a duty OF $4,000 to the Spanish author
titles. She refused to do this and return.
ed to Florida, bringing some Of her sup
plies with her. Leaving these to be dis.
tribated among the refugees, she went TO
her home in Washington and has been
there ever since.
Red Cross Agent Hyatt, however, was
not to be intimidated by the big demands
of the Spaniards, nor held in check by a
mere formal thing like a protocol. He
learned that the Cubans were starving
hster and faster. and he informed Mir.
Baritone officers that he could get the $50
tons OF supplies on the Nokomia into Gu.
ban ports il he had the authority to do
so. MIR. Barton being away, the matter
was referred to the treasurer, MIR. Sehirel.
MIR. Schirel thought it would be all right
to help the Cubans and told Hyatt to 20
ahead.
Agent Hyatt went ahead. In the name
OF the National Red Cross, and backed MP
by Sehirel, Mr.. Hyatt proceeded to carry
out MIR. MeKinley's policy Of humanity
for Cubans by sending goods into small
Cuban seaport towns. Unfortunately his
methods were OF a sort not wholly sane
toned by pubheists. Mr.. Hyatt had done
business in Havana and the smaller sea.
coast towns. He knew his ground aid he
went at this work in businesslike way.
He did not consult Miss Clara Barton or
anybody else except MIR. Schirel.

London, Sept. pa st. Petersburg
dispatch says the imperial authorities are
arranging for great purchases OF Ameri-
can wheat for distribution among the
sufferers in the district affected by the
bad harvests.
Reports from the district of Kazun.
where the distress is particularly acute,
show an alarming state OF affairs. The
cattle are being fed on fodder taken from
the matches OF cottages, and permission
has been given the peasants to gather
fagOts for fuel and dried leaves for fod-
der, in the woods.
Terrible as the situation now is, the
distress not only shows no signs OF abat-
ing. but will probably be more aecentu-
ated in the coming winter, when the
famine will have for its prey a popula-
ton already impoverished and exhausted
by previous years OF want and scarcity.

A. r. MAIN.
It Now Appears That He Belonged in St.
Stephen.


Several days ago it was reported that
man named A. r. Main, supposed to be-
long in this vicinity. had died suddenly
in Savannah, Ga. Since then the police
have been trying to identify the man.
Mrs. EIvira Traitor of Westbrook, was
inclined to think he was her brother, but
it turns out that the deceased belonged in
st. Stephen, N. B., and was not related
to Mrs Trafton,
Mr.. George a. Owen, OF the firm of
Owen, Strout & Co., yesterday fully fixed
the identity of the man. Mr.. Owen for
merIy worked ON the ST. Croix Courier
in st. Stephen, N. B. The editor at that
time was David Main. and his eldest son
was Arthur r. Main. The son has lived
in the South for years. When Mr. Owen
saw the account of the death of A. r.
Main insSavannah he supposed this to be
the man but he was not sure until yester-
day, when he received copy of the St.
Croix Courier. That paper states that the
deceased is Arthur r. Main, son OF the
late David Main of ST. Stephen, and says
That the body has been buried at Savan-
nah. This settles the identity of the man
beyond doubt and will relieve the mind
of Mrs. Trafton, who feared that it was
her brother.

MANHATTAN STEAMSHIP co.
Five Large Vessels Bought for Coastwiss
Business.

Within the next few weeks the Manhat-
tan Steamship company of Nos. and
II Broadway, New York, will have i've
large steamers, obtained from owners on
the great lakes. IN the coastwise trade.
Two of them, the a. Z. Runnells and the
Lloyd S. Porter, left Buffalo for the sea-
board Wednesday morning, and two more
ships will follow in few days. The In
surance valuation, after these boats have
been fitted up for the coastwise trade, will
be about 500. 900 each.
These are the only regular lake steam
ers to come from the lakes this year.
The published reports that the govern
ment does not intend to sell any of the
ships purchased and altered for govern
ment. use, explains the necessity of going
to the lakes for these vessels. This has
proved boon to the lake business,
freight rates being firmer and compe-
tition and rivalry lessened.
The steamships obtained by the Man
haitian Steamship company will be sent
to Philadelphia to be refitted, and will be
in service by the middle Of November.
The Manhattan company have sent out
a map showing where their steamers
will run. They start from New York
and ply to Portland, Rockland, Bangor.

NO PLACE TO GO.
Mayor Randall Grants Lodging to Soldiers
at Armory.

Yesterday afternoon twenty-seyen mem
bers of the First Regiment Maine Volun-
teers, called upon Mayor Randall at City
building. They said they belonged. to the
Portland battalion but that their homes
were in other parts Of the state and those
Of some of them out of the state. They
were given furlough Of thirty days, and
the furlough expired Thursday when they
should have reported at headquarters at

or sleep until the muster out next week.
They also said that there would be a

selves.
Mayor Randall issued orders for the men

The Bangor Commercial received the
following notice on Thursday, for publ
cation in order that the Bangor soldiers
may know when to come to Portland for
their muster out. The order appears to
be official though it was filed with the
Commercial by persons who did not wait
to be identified. The order follows:
Every enlisted man of A company will
report at the Armory in Portland on
Monday, October "a, BY first train, to be
mustered out Of the q. S. V. A.
By order of Captain Dow,
SERGT. r. B. ROBINSON.
The soldiers vera furnished with good
suppers by Councilman Barker, who saw

to make them comfortable. Janitor
Brown was also instrumental in making
