Ideas Growing Among the CUbnRs.
Havana, Oct 25, $50 p. m.-Manuel San
gully the well-known author and orator
who was a distinguished soldier in the ten
years war, Will represent the Second,
Third and Fifth Corps of the Cuban army
at the Cuban assembly, convened to con-
slider the establishment of a permanent
Cuban government
His choice by these troops, including the
Holguin. Tunas, Bayamo Manzanino.
Camaguey, Matanzas and Havana divis-
ions, is highly significant as indicating
the sentiment of large number of Gu
Lans now under arms.
Sanguilly has made several speeches OF
late that have caused a profound sensa-
ton. in which he has urged. upon the
Cubans the imperative necessity of plac-
ing full confidence In the United States
government. and has censured those
who have shown distrust OF
the Americans, He has advo-
Gated the dlsbandment of the Cuban troops
and their return 20 the arts of peace,
dwelling long and earnestly upon the i'm
portance of the Cubans of securing the
confidence of the United States.
He even went so far as to declare that
If the Cuban revolutionary leaders should
assume a hostile attitude toward the Amer
leans he would enter the ranks of those
opposed to such a course. His selection at
this juncture, in view of such sentiments
indicates that rational judgment is max
ing headway in certain quarters.
The volunteers in Havana are gradually
being relieved of garrison duty, and are
now only doing sentry duty at the palace
of the captain general, the palace of the
military governor the custom house and
the Spanish Bank Other posts are COW

CHAIRMAN DLANCHARD's VIEW.
He Thinks the Cnuntry's Commerce
Depends on Uniformity OF Rates.

New York, Oct 25-George r. Blanch-
ard, chairman of the Joint Traffic Asso-
citation. said to a representative of the AS
ISOLATED Press to-day, discussing the de-
cision of the Supreme Court in the Joint
Traffic Association case: I'VE have al
ready asked Congress to pass pooling
law, and that remedy has been denied us.
Our position has long been that uniformity
of railroad rates is essential to CONNER
cial prosperity. If, for instance, there
were sixty different rates into New York,
the stability of New York's commerce
would be at an end. What we desire from
Congress is authority to contract among
ourselves for maintaining uniformity of
rates. / do not think there is any need
of providing by law a penalty for disre-
gard of uniform rates by railroad com
panes or their agents.
Mr.. Blanchard decided to refrain from
commenting upon the Supreme Court $
decision until he had seen a printed copy
of Il in its entirety.
A meeting of the managers of the Joint
Traffic Association was held here to-day
and adjourned without action, pending
the receipt of copy of the text Of the
Supreme Courts decision. The managers
will meet again tomorrow by which time
they hope to be fully acquainted with the
decision Of the court.
Chairman Depew has been asked to call
a meeting Of the presidents Of the road of
The association some day next week. The
presidents comprise the board Of control,
which has been the governing body OF
the Joint Traffic Association. This board
Is likely TO take decisive action as 10 the
future of the association.
Following the meeting of the managers
President Thomas d. Fowler of the New
York, Ontario and Western Railroad, said
THE rate question Is one OF vast import
ance to the people Of this county, but the
invio,ability of the United States Supreme
Court Is of great consequence. Had the
court reversed itself the dissatisfied and
suspicious portions of the community
would perhaps have jumped at the con-
clusion that corporation pressure had in
some manner been at work. The pooling
question, under the proper supervision Of
the interstate commerce commission, Is
now open for congressional action. A de-
cision favorable 70 the railroads In the
joint traffic case would have prevented
the considera ton OF such question.
do not believe that the recent decision Of
the Supreme Court will cause further
demoralization Of rates"

ed that such would be England's action"
