Chicago, Oct. 2O.-The Record this

The expansion idea has spread SO
rapidly since the President came West

Democratic campaign managers have

Santiago de Cuba, Oct. 2o.-An Amer

land at Manzanillo. where are several
good iron mines. An agent of the syn

The inhabitants OF Santiago are suf-
fering severely from the failure of the
Ice works. which at present are broken
down and unable TO manufacture more
than enough for a favored few. Some
OF the principal cafes get none at all.
The Santiago Chamber Of Commerce
has petitioned for n reduction in the
duties on common salt. which at pres
ent are S1.10 per 100 kilos. The cham
ber contends that a duty of 80 cents
would be enough. DIR. Donaldson. the
collector Of the port. in his report to
General Wood on the subject, advises
compliance with the request as reason
able.
A few weeks ago there were many
