DISTRIBUTING CUBAN FUNDS.
Gen. Wood Comforting With War De-
partment officials.

General Wood was again at the War De-
partment yesterday. in consultation with the
officials respecting matters of Cuban policy.
So far the question of the distribution of
customs receipts and other financial mat
ters have been discussed only in a super
fetal manner.
But it is fully expected that before Gen.
Woods departure permanent policy will
be adopted in this matter.
1t is beyond question that Gen. Wood $
visit has done much to elevate the Cubans
themselves In the estimation of the govern
ment here.
He has shown from his own personal ex-
periences that they have been very much
misrepresented as TO their capacity for self
government, and the remarkable success
which has attended the plan so carefully
developed by him, of allowing the best ele-
ment among the CubanS the largest Oppor-
tunity to administer the affairs of their
own municipalities and provinces, has made
a deep impression upon the official mind
here.
OF course conditions may not be alike in
all of the Cuban provinces, but as the prov
ince of Santiago emerged from the war in
probably worse shape than any OF the
others it is regarded as entirely probable
that system which has worked so well un-
der adverse conditions there would be quite
as successful in the other provinces, where
the conditions are believed to be more ia
yorable.
1t is gathered from the brief official re-
ports of General Ludlow at Havana that he
has himself begun to put in operation plans
for the government of the city of Havana,
based ON this same theory of allowing the
Cubans an opportunity to demonstrate their
ability to manage their own affairs, and the
War Department is watching the result
with great interest and with every dispo-
sition to give General Ludlow all the as
sistance possible in the experiment he is
now conducting.

RELICS OF BUDDHA.
A Remarkable Find on the NepRul
Frontier of India.

From the London Standard.
The King of Siam is sending an envoy
to India to receive the relics of Buddha
discovered some time ago on the Nepaul
frontier, which were offered to his majesty
by the Indian government. The king, who
gratefully accepted the offer, has agreed
to distribute portions of the relics among
the Buddhists of Burma and Ceylon from
Bangkok.
1t will probably be remembered that in
January last well-preserved stupa was
opened at the village of Pipra-Hwa on the
Nepaul frontier in the Basti district of the
northwest provinces. This village was in
the Birdpur grant, a large property owned
by William c. Peppe and his brother. In
side the building was found a large stone
Golfer crystal and steatite vases, bone and
ash relics, fragments of lime, plaster and
wooden vessels, and large quantity of
jewels and ornaments placed in two vases
in honor of the relics. A careful list was
at once made of all the articles, and Mr..
Peppe generously offered to place them at
the disposal of the government.
The special interest of the discovery lies
in the fact that the relics in honor of
which the stIpa was erected appear to be
those of Guatama Buddha Sakya MUM
himself, and may be the actual share of
the relics taken by the Sakyas of Kapila-
vastir at the time of the cremation of
of the urps proves that the builders of the
stupa believed the relics to be those of
Gautama Buddha himself 1t runs: This
relic receptacle of the blessed Sakya
Buddha is dedicated by the renowned
brethren with their sisters and their sons
wives The characters of the record.
Prof. Buhrer points out do not mark me-
dial long vowels, and appear to be older
than those of the Asoka inscription
The relics, being a matter of such in
tense interest to the Buddhist world were
offered by the Indian government to the
King of Siam. who is the only existing
Buddhist monarch. with a proviso that be
would not object to offer a portion of the
relics TO the Buddhists of Burma and Cey-
Ion, and Ii was suggested that his majesty
should send deputation to receive the
sacred relics with due ceremonial.
No relics of Buddha authenticated by a
direct inscription have before been found
in modern times, the relics are as ra re
as they are unique, and by all Buddhists
viii be regarded as most sacred and holy
objects of devotion. Their presentation to
the King OF Siam. the recognized head of
the religion, is therefore highly proper
The accessories which were discovered will
IL Is understood, be distributed among the
Imperial Museum at Calcutta the Luck
now Provincial Museum and perhaps the
British Museum. Mr.. Peppe retaining a rea-
use The stone Golfer above referred to is
over four feet In length and two feet in
height. 1t is made out of solid block
of sandstone and weighs about sixteen
hundredweight, 1t Is understood that the
acknowledgements of the government have
been conveyed to Mr.. Peppe for his pubIIc-
spirited action in the matter.

McGraw Expects to Manage the
Baltimores.
CURRENT SPORTING NOTES

Johnny McGraw, the well-known third
baseman of the Baltimore club, attended
the Sharkey-McCoy fight and occupied a
box in company with the ex-champion, Cor
bett. In conversation with the latter, the
ex champion told McGraw that his broth
err Joe Corbett, the base ball pitcher, had
not played ball with Manager Hanion last
season on his advice, and that Joe would
never again play for the Baltimore man
ager. This statement Is important, as Man.
ager Hanlon has been counting on CorDett
coming back into the game the coming sea-
son and helping the Brooklyn club to win
the championship. If Manager Hanlon
takes this statement as conclusive, Joe
Corbett will doubtless be on the market
for trade, and Chicago or Louisville may
land him
McGraw expects to finance and manage
the Baltimore club this year, and should
he be abe to land Joe Corbett with his
club the reconstructed Orioles cannot be
sneeZed at next season. With McGraW on
third, Joe Kelley on first and Joe Corbett
in the box, with Robinson to receive hlIn'
the team certainly has a nucleus OF the
greatest promise From present indica-
tons McGraw is only waiting for the
Brooklyn end of the Baltimore deal TO De
closed up, so that he can take hoid ana
reconstruct the Orioles. The money neces-
sary to buy out Hanlon and Vonderhorst
has already been posted, and revival Oh
base ball enthusiasm may come under NC
Graw's leadership.

one of the Americans said ''to have had an
exchange of views and a personal expert
ence social Nearly all those present had
some observations to make in behalf of
the contention of their respective sides, the
Canadians wanting the 81 tax per thousand
feet now imposed by the Dingley tariff bill,
removed and lumber admitted free, and
the Americans refusing to make any con-
eessions Mr.. Charlton and Mr.. VIM. C.
Edwards made the principal statements for
the Canadians and Representative Tawney
that for the Americans.
After the conference closed the Amer

decided to make no representations in the

resentative Tawney was requested and will
act in the interest of the home manufac-
turers In any question pertaining to ium-
Der that may come up in that connection
1t Is evident that the Canadians are not
q little disappointed at the outcome of the
conference. Most of the visitors left for
