CUBANS CHEAT ON RATI0NS
Cuban Assembly Liable tOIDie From
Lack of Attention

Havana March s.-For the month OF
March the various provinces, excepting
the province of Santiago, have made re-
QUESTION for two million rations. This,
instead of diminishing the Tequislton, mas
doubled since that of January l. This
is due partly 10 the fact that the Cubans
use every possible opportunity of getting
rations under false pretenses, and partly
TO the fact that American distributors
are unable 10 discriminate properly be-
tween imposters and the really necessi-
tous. The reqHisition for the province OF
avana for March is $4,000 rations. Major
General Ludlow has given the stristest
orders that the distributors in Havana
shall so far as possible, give only 10
persons really i'll. utterly unable TO work
and that applicans who are proven gull
" of misrepresenting their condition shall
be severely punished. The supply ship
Comal with a million rations, Will pro-
coed TO Matanzas and Nuevitas TO uniood
them.
The Cuban military assembly held a
third secret session this afternoon,
guard being placed around the house
where the meeting wA held. and the
public being vigorously excluded from the
precincts. The assumption is that the
mysterious s12.OOOO0O proposal fathered by
Senior Fares is still under discussion
General Maxine Gomez ignores the as
seubIv. With the disarming Of the army
/ the assembly's functions will disappear
II is rumored today that the members
are considering an early dissolution
An unconfrmed report is in circulation
Of riotous disturbances by Cubans at Pu-
/ erto Principe.
La Discussion publishes an alleged IN
| rerview with Major General Wilson MIL
/ tarv governor Of Matanzas, which repre-
/ sents him as saying TO the Cuban general
/ Pedro Betancourt that he expects 10
! leave Cuba soon. and that therefore the
/ work of appointing new civil administTa-
/ tors for the province must be fastened

winter months the indicated total IS ap-
proximately us, 900. This includes an adj
dition of $1,000 to the current returns and
estimates, which a careful revision and
fuller returns appear to justify. This to-
tai is 1,2S5, 900 in excess of last year, When
the record was $4,000. 1t is however,
over 100000 short of the first of January
estimates, or per cent smaller number
for the two months than the calculations
suggested
RANGE LIVESTOCK LOSSES.
The secretary of the National Live
stock association, today issued a bulletin
concerning livestock losses during last
winter. 1t says: with the exception Of
Montana, reports have been received from
leading stockmen, and are regarded as
accurate as far as they go. In ldaho'
Wyoming, Colorado, northern and west
ern Texas, New Mexico, Oklahoma and
Indian Territory, the winter has been the
worst known in ten years or more For
tunateIy, the great cold made the storms
dry, and there was enough wind and sun
to keep a fair proportion Of the ranges
uncovered. Oregon, Washington and
Arizona suffered very little and will have
only nominal losses. California is still
suffering from drought and the outlook
there is bad. The losses in Wyoming,
Colorado and the Dakotas as yet have not
averaged 4 per cent. In northern and
western Texas and northeastern New
Mexico, and through southern Oklahoma
and Indian Territory the heaviest losses
have been with cattle being moved north
from the south. Where the cattle went
mortality has been heavy, reaching IN
some sections as high as 20 per cent TAX
ing the range section as whole, to the
present time, the losses will average 4
pei. cent. With the most favorable con-
ditions that can be expected, an addition
al loss of per cent may be looked for
before spring. and should the weather
continue bad through March, a very
large loss viii certainly result.
In Utah, Wyoming and some parts Of
Oregon, heavy sheep losses are reported.
1t is feared that there will also be heavy
sheep losses in Montana. Wyoming re-
ports some instances Of losses reaching
as high as 80 per cent. and some claim
that if March furnishes as much bad
weather the sheep loss in that state may
reach . per cent. In eastern Utah the
conditions appear to be almost as bad.
In several instances the reports give the
average for this section as being 20 per
cent. These two states are the greatest
sufferers of any reported
in New Mexico, Colorado, Kansas and
Nebraska the reports are not SO discour-
aging, but in sections Of these states
wher the range is depended upon exclus-
lively. the losses have been heavier than
| usual

washington, March 6.-The war depart
ment is now making arrangements for
shipping 10 Cuba the 10000 asked for
by General Brooke for paying of The
Cuban army. Definite arrangements
have not yet been completed. but the
money will be shipped the latter part

accompany it. turning it over to General
Brooke's possession and probably attend

The Associated Press is authorized TO
state that under no conditions Will the
government Of the United States consent
TO recognize in any manner auw fnan-
cial obligations issued by the so-calIed
assembly of the Cuban army, now in ses-
sion near avana. Should this body see
fit 10 authorize the issue of any bonds
for any purpose. the government OF the
United States will not be led into guar
anteeing them and they must stand on
their own resources in that matter.
New York, March 6.-A special from
Washington says: Paymaster General
Carey has perfected arrangements for
going to Cuba next week 10 pay of the
Cuban army. General Carey Will take
the entire appropriation Of 100000 10
