HAITI WILL NOT
 sCEDE A COALING STATION

Port Au Prince, Hayti, May 1S-The cor respondent of the Associated Press had an interview today with M. Tanorede Auguste, who is the confidential adviser and person. al friend of Simon Sam, as to the cession of Mole St. Nicholas, or some other point as a coaling station. H A
 M. Auguste declared that negotiations to such an end were out of the question, as it was impossible for Hayt to cede any territory, the popular jealousy of foreign Gers being great and enduring.
 At the same time he said the sentiment of Hayti for America was friendly and that it ought to be possible to get the benefits of American good will. All the misfortunes of Hayti in her foreign rela- tions come from the European powers, and during the Hispano-American war the gov ernment must refuse to countenance even an encouragement between the concession aires of Gonavoa islands and the United States for an American coaling station, but when the war was over M. Auguste said there would be no objection to it.
 The government, he declared, was appre- hensive of dangerous complications based upon a charge of infringement of neutrali- ty. For some time there has been consid- erable tension in the Haytien cabinet over differences as to the monetary problem, but the crisis is now said to have passed.

CANNED SALMON
 CITY GOES UNDER Manager Smith Takes His Ball TosSers to Columbus. McCLOSKY WANTSA CHANGE He May Be Given the Franchise and the Club Will Continue Pensacola May Get
 Texas Team and
 Come In.

Despite the fact that Manager T. F. Smith of the Montgomery baseball team has thrown up the spouge and left with his men for Columbus O., it is more than probale that another team will be placed in the league and season continued with eight clubs.
 President Henry Powers wired Manager Leonard of the Augsta club at Montgomery that he is negotiating with John J. Mc- C1oskey, formerly of the Texas League, to take the Montgomery franchise. Me- Closkey is a great fayorite in Montgom- cry, having managed team in that city in 1891. It is also said that Pensacola is anxious to get into the league and that the Houston club of the Texas League will be transferred to that city, the Texas league being on it's last legs.
 Macon and Columbus, Ga., are also said to be anxious to come in and both are good ball towns.
 The Augusta team will remain in Mont gomery until tomorrow, when a league meeting will be held in that city and mat terS arranged.
 President Baugh, of the local associa- tion. received a rather blue telegram from Manager Leonard, of the Augusta team yesterday, which no doubt got much of it's indigo hue from the action of the Mont gomery team. While the team had no money the Augusta association proposes to hold its franchise, and the team will come to Birmingham for the three schedule games beginning Tuesday, and the local fans will no doubt put their shoulders to the wheel by giving their moral support and presence at the games in order to get things out of the rut in which they ap- pear to have fallen.
 The local management have no reason to complain, and are paying salaries regularly with something to the good.
 Even if the Augusta team drops out the league will be continued with six clubs.

4 COMFORT no MOTHERS.
Camp Cuba Librc an Ideal One--SoI-
diers All Satisfied.

JACKSONVILLE. FLA, June 22.-It
may be a comfort 10 some Iowa, Wis
ccnsin, New Jersey, Illinois, Virginia,
North Carolina, and Mississippi mothers
to know that their sons, serving here
in Camp Cuba Libre as members of the
Seventh Army Corps, United States Vol
unteers, seem likely to be less sick than
If they were at home. and are not in any
sense suffering hardship.
The Associated Press correspondent has
just interviewed at random fully two
score prvates, representing all the regi-
ments. No one complained. Then he
saw a number Of officers, who expressed
decided satisfaction at their surround
ings and supplies. Then, Chicf-Surgeon
Maus took the correspondent 10 the di-
vision hospitals pointing out, with graft
fcatiOn, that the inmates there numbered
less than / per cent. Of the total rank
and file. DR.. Maus, who is of the regular
army. and has no local prejudices, said
the camp is ideal, the water-supply per-
feet as to both quantity and quality, and
the climate actually salubrious The
Chief Surgeon has many plans for caring
for the sick, and Of these plans num-
Der are now in successful operation.
GENERAL LEE PLEASED.
General Lee is well pleased, not only
with the camp and its condition, but with
the discipline and morality Of the troops.
Prominent citizens point out that the
men at jacksonville have behaved in such
exemplary fashion that they have earned
the appreciation of all the residents. Not
q single case Of Drawing or insuboFdina-
ton is reported.
1t is well also TO note that prominent
civilian physicians, agents for the Red
Cross, and kindred organizations, join in
all the compliments bestowed by their
army confreres upon Camp Cuba Libre.
There is room for a fun corps of
twenty-seven regiments in the present
camp and available ground adjoining, and
the place is easily accessible by rail.
All the mea here seem anxious TO so
to the front, but this anxiety is natural
90 the American soldier, and is not fos-
tered by discomfort in their present habi-
tatiOn.

THE PHILIPPINES QUESTION.
Germany's Attitude - AnsIo-Ameri-
cnn Settlement.

LONDON, June 23.-The Berlin corre-
spondent of the Times, commenting on
the Philippines question, says:
"There would be storm of indignation
i'm the German press if the United States
were to become master Of the Philippines,
while Germany got nothing. In the view
of many German politicians, anything
would be better than that, and they would
even prefer to see the Intervention OF
several European Powers to protect the
life and property Of their subjects from
the rebels. followed by the acquisition OF
a naval station for each of them.
There is, in fact, strong inclination
to repeat the Chinese drama at Kiao-
Chau wherever an opportunity is afforded.
Relatively TO what Germany already pos
sesses, she has everything TO gain by
such a policy Of fair shares all around.
There can, however, be little doubt
that no European Power OF combination
of Powers, would venture TO prevent the
United States and Great Britain from
settling the future of the Philippines con-
Jointly or at least, under the protection
Of their conioint naval forces. Conti-
mental opi'ion would not only speedily
acknowledge the strength of an Anglo
American naval alliance, but would be
practically unanimous against incurring
the risk Of the commercial consequences
OF a breach with the United States"
UNCLE SANS PURPOSE.
LONDON, June 2.--The Washington
correspondent of the Daily Mail, on the
authority OF a prominent member of the
Cabinet, says:
THE government has not yet formu-
lated a definite policy as 10 the Philip
pines ana Porto Rico, but while indis-
posed TO retain the Philippines il Mil not
allow them again TO be subjected 70
Spanish rule. II the independence of the
Philippines proves a failure the island,
perhaps. might be sold preferably to
Great Britain. Porto Rico might be per-
manently retained, owing to its proximity
to the United States and its strategic
value.

the war had necessitated A vast amount
OF special preparation, and a large in

This leads TO the supposition that tn ?

THE MANILA SITUATION.
Occupation by Parts of Foreign
Crews Already N Fact.

LONDON. June 23.-The Daily News
publishes a statement, alleged to come
from a correspondent having access TO
good information, that the occupation CT
Manila by parts Of the crews of the for
eigh warships there Is an accomplished
fact, although 1t may probably be three
or four days before the official news ar
rives by way of Hongkong. The commu-
nication proceeds to say:
over a month ago Admiral Dewey
prepared TO lombard Manila. At this
juncture. however. new factor was add
ed to the situation. The German Consul,
acting on precise instructions, which had
just arrived by the German warship
Irene. strongly opposed the bombardment.
These instructions were clear and cate
gorical, and emanated directly from En-
peror Williams Cabinet.
1T was then that Admiral Dewey asked
for reinforcements. and supplied Agllinal-
do with arms, while Germany gathered
a naval force. The intention at Berlin
was, II not TO take possession Of Manila,
at least to cooperate in the landing, Ad-
miral Dewey's force not being sufficient
10 protect German interests. Captain
General Augusti had, on his part, inform
ed his government Of the situation, and
several interviews took place at Madrid
with the German Ambassador the result
being that II was decided that Captain
General August should appeal to the
foreign warships at Manila. excluding the
American. to protect the lives and pro-
perty OF the inhabitants against the in
surgents.
1T was an indirect way Of captivating
while sparing Spanish amour prOpre
There is no doubt Admiral Won Deide-
richs has taken command of the forces
landed, although he has not taken pos
session in behalf of Germany, but will
he, when the American reinforcements ar
rive, be willing 10 allow his forces to re-
embark? The whole question lies there"
