LIVELY SKIRMISH
is LOOKED FOR
Fight for Minority Leadership in
Next House.
BANKHEAD OF ALABAMA
Friends Will Push His Claims in Oppo-
sition to Those of Dearmond and
Richardson : Much De-
pends on Bailey
BANKHEAD OF ALABAMA

Chicago, November 1O-A lively skirmish
for minority leadership in the house of rep
resentatives of the next congress is looked
for when members of the executive COM
mittee of the democratic national commit
tee together with leading democrats of the
western and central states, meet in Chica-
go November 20 to discuss the leadership
and plans for the presidential campaign.
Friends of Congressman d. A. DeArmond,
of Missouri, will be here in large numbers
to urge the selection of their favorite, and
the claims of James d. Richardson, of
Tennessee, and Congressman Bankhead, of
Alabama, will also be urged.
Much depends upon the action of Con-
gressman Bailey, of Texas, the present
minority leader. Doubt has been expressed
as to whether Congressman Bailey, in view
of his contest for the senatorship in Texas
will care to assume the leadership. Mama
ger Sam d. Cook, of the democratic ways
and means committee, has invited Con-
gresham Bailey to be present at the meet
ing November 20, and the latter's position IS
expected to be defined at that time. The
Chicago meeting will be followed by eau
Gus at Washington, and should Mr.. Bailey
decide to resign the leadership in the house,
the Washington meeting will decide upon
whose shoulders the Texans mantle shall
fall In the meantime friends of the ether
candidates preparing to vigorously
press their claims.

Bond Purchases Discussed

Washington, November 10.-The question
of the purchase of United States bonds by
the government was under discussion for
nearly an hour ait today's cabinet meeting
Secretary Gage explained the situation
fully, and 1t now appears to be settled thar
no purchases will be made for the present
at least Although the secretary has not
expressed his views on the subject for pub
leation it is known that he, with other
treasury officials, is considering the ques-
tioa of refunding the and per cents in
long term bonds bearing per cent. interest.
This action would neeessitate congressional
authorization, but whe the secretary
will recommend such legislation is not
known. The decision to extend the United
States domestic postal system to the Phil
ippines gives that archipelago the same do
mestic rates, classification and conditions
as apply here.

Civil Supremacy

General Wood, If he should be made the
head of the government in Cuba, would be,
as I understand the scheme, domiciled as
civil governor, but he would not he divest-
ed either of his military rank or of military
authority or power. a military force would
remain in the island, and would be neces-
sarily-or at least almost certainly-subJect
to the supreme head, the civil governor
1t has been our constant aim and practice
to subordinate the military to the civil as
much as possible
II should not think That our government
contemplated any extensive work upon the
fortifcations of Cuba The first ahing for
us to do is to create in Cuba something
worth an enemys taking. Let us have
schools there before we have fortihcations.
There Is not DIN Cuba school house worthy
of the name-nothing but the most dilapi-
dated and miserable novels called by the
name of school house. In Havana alone |
want So, 600 900 for school houses. An ef-
fective educational system cannot be es-
tabhshed there until the Physical founda-
tion in proper school houses is laid. As to
harbor improvements, it is not unlikely
that the government may undertake some
thing"

HOBART BETTER
The Vice-President's Condition Con-
tinues to Improve

Paterson, N. j., November 10.-There was
another change for the better in Vice Pres
ident Hobart's condition today. He was
able to sit up in a chair in his room, and
picked up a newspaper and examined 1t,
eventually turning to Mrs. Hobart and ask
ing her to read to him. The patient was
evidently stronger today, and took more
nourishment than at any time since his bad
attack of nearly two weeks ago.
Despite the statements of attending ply
sicians, the family still have hopes of his
ultimate recovery. They were much en-
couraged today by the fact that he was
able to sit up such long period of time,
and by the way in which he apparently rel
ished his food.

BEING VERY STRICTLY CENSORED
British Public Must be Content With Brief SteeObped Reports
Which Are Allowed to Filter Through from Capebwn

to have this work which has been hanging
fire so long pushed through as soon as
possible.
1.-The first step toward the establishment
of civil government in Cuba is the compile
tion of the census and that 1t is now ex-
uected, will be finished by the end of the
month.
"The presidents desire is to have Cuban
self-goverment in operation at once so
that congress may be enabled to observe
its practical workings and be aided thereby
to frame laws for the permanent govern
ment of the island.
1.-THE civil governor, who will replace GEN
eral Brooke 1t Is understood, will be either
General Ludlow, General Wood or General
Wilson. Several of the Havana papers are
demanding the appointment of Mr.. Rath-
bone and his appointment would give satis-
faction to the Cubans, but 1t seems likely
that the appointed will be one of the de-
partment commanders General Lee is also
advocated for the post.
'If Cuba does get self-government, 1t will
be mainly due to Secretary Root He has
urged the substitution of civil for military
government ever since he entered the cabi-
net and has been the prime mover in the
cause of self-government.
"When the case of Puerto Rico comes to
be considered, 1t is believed the appoint
ment will go to Governor General Davis"
