PEACEFUL BUT PROUD.
n Cubans War with Americans. Am-ri-
cans Can lie blamed.

New York. June 0--The Rev. Alfred
Dekarritt. who four months ago found.
ed a Congregational church In Havana,
has returned 10 this country for help in
aid Of his religious and educational work
In Cuba. Mr. Dekarritt spoke about
present conditions in Cuba and the pos
sibility Of an outbreak against the Amer.
leans.
III this occurs" he said. 1t will be
the fault Of the Americans The Cubans
are a peaceful people. but they are also
proud and sensitive, and many things
have been done recently 10 anger them.
The Cubans feel that they are being
treated rs though they had been con.
quered by rs. AT any rate the Wash.
ington authorities should do away with
the present military government II is
worse than unnecessary; II IL doing an
immense deal of harm. A great many
Of the American officers don't like the
Cuhans and don't scruple 10 let this be-
known. How can you expect the Gu
bans 10 like theml
General Brooke and General Lee are
liked and trusted but their influence
for good is nullided by the attitude Of
other officers.
The payment Of the Cuban troops
and requiring them 10 lay down their
arms was mistake. The disarming
was a great humiliation 10 the men. and
aud the first thing a great many Of them
did with their S75 each was 10 buy new
guns and machetes
There is a. yet no distinct idea in
the minds Of the majority Of these peo-
pie rs to what they really want, wheth.
er annexation or independence. But
they obtain their ideas OF the United
States government from the American
officers and these ideas are not fayora.

jury in the case of the State vs.. Henry
Delegal, charged with assault upon a
white woman, and whose arrest caused
the recent disturbances between the
whites and the blacks in this county,
was out from O'Clock yesterday even
ing until 9 o'clock this morning, when
Judge Seabrooke being informed that
there was no chance for a verdict, de-
clared mistrial. He appointed next
Wednesday as the day for another
hearing.
Col. Gerard, who has been here since
Tuesday night, with detachment Of
the Savannah Guards, left with them
and Henry Delegal to-day for Savan-
nah. This is probably the end OF the
disturbances in this county.

tarism as a duck does to water. One OF
his recent orders, which is highly COM
mended by the lingo press, is that no
information shall be given out about
tests of guns and high explosives. This
is to prevent foreign governments from
learning what we are doing in the art
Of war, so that we can surprise them
some day in battle by terrible ex-
plosive that they hadn't dreamed was
in existence. The trouble with this
secrecy business is that if you try to
conceal something the other fellows
will make strenuous efforts to find out
what you are up to, and so the natural
companion of secrecy is spy system,
and what the spy system leads to every
body can see in the Dreyfus case. How
long will it be before we have COR
rupt general staff suspicious of every
subordinate and Dreyfus case of our
own, if Roots policy of secrecy is ex-
tended and adhered to?
SOME INTERESTING FACTS
regarding the street railway system of
Hamburg, Germany, have been trans
mitted by the United States consul
there. The street car company pays
into the Hamburg treasury 81 per cent
of its gross income from passenger
fares in addition to keeping in order
the paving between the tracks and Ills
inches outside Rates of fare are fixed
by the board of public traffic. All lines
are divided into zones of LA miles,
and the fare is 2.38 cents for the first
two zones and thereafter 1.19 cents for
each two zones or fraction thereof.
Communication tickets are issued en-
titling the holder to ride for certain
specified periods over adj lines as many
times day as he wishes. Where the
holder uses the line more than three
times day these tickets afford a very
substantial reduction from the ordinary
rate of fare. The one fare one seat
rule is rigidly enforced by appropriate
penalties. School children are furnish
ed tickets costing 95-100 of cent for
each ride. Electricity is the motive
power and the overhed trolley system
is used.
FOR THE FIRST TWO MONTHS
of the present fiscal year the expendi-
lures of the government have exceeded
the revnues by $4,051, OH. At this rate
there will be deficit at the end of the
fiscal year of about $25,000,000. But
this calculation leaves out Of consider
alton the enormous sums which are
about to be expended in the subjuga-
ton of the Filipinos The cost of the
reinforcements for Otis will swell the
deficit to nearly double the sum just
mentioned. Notwithstanding a con-
tinually increasing revenue and the i'm
position of heavy war taxes bringing
the federal income up to double what
it used to be in Cleveland's time, the
administration is managing to spend it
all and more too, a large proportion Of
it going to maintain the warlike enter
prises of Root and Mckinley.
