Iron and Steel Men Are Already at

NEW YORK, July 19.-Santiago de Cuba
under the American flag means the i'm
mediate resumption and largely increased
future of the iron and steel trade with that
section of the island, says the Baltimore
correspondent of the Tribune.

cipo mines are largely held in Baltimore.

Cuban ores because Of their value in maxi
ing steel and of their cheapness.
When the mines were in operation from
three or four cargoes of ore came to Balti-
more each week and the monthly importa
tons ran from $4,000 to 10000 tons.
A general resumption of work on the plan

would simplify the problem of taking care
Of territory which is now under the Amer
