The state department of educa-

through the state advising them
to draw on the stute treasurer at
the rate of 35 cents per capita of

tai distribution for the month of
December amounting to about
100000. The payments for the
corresponding month one year
previous amounted to $103,308,
which was 10 cents per capita on

Through Chlcago.G Galveston Line.

The Rockefellers have secured,
by participation in the syndicate
which acquired the Chicago and
Alton railroad, a through line for
the Missouri, Kansas and Texas
railroad from Chicago to Calves
ton. The Missouri, Kansas and
Texas railroad has been con-
trolled by the Standard Oil COM
pany for several years. Now that
times are better the road has not
responded to its owners desires
because it was cut from through
grain traffic from the lakes. The
Rockefellers were to build the
St. Louis Short line, which was
to use the St. Louis, Peoria and
Northern for its St. Louis con-
nection and the Chicago terminal
transfer line to Chicago. They
decided, however, to share in the
purchase of the Chicago and AL
ton, which involved less expendi-
ture of money than the building
of the st. Louis line. The new
line will be 1407.42 miles long
between Chicago and Galveston.
1t is understood that the price
paid was S175 per share or about
$1,000, 900, and for the So, 100000
of preferred stock $195 per share,
or about $7,O00,O00. The Mis-
souri,, Kansas and Texas will en-
ter into trackage contract with
the Chicago and Alton for the
running of through freight and
passenger trains.

Over the Island of CG6a is Now
Sercnely Floating.
CEREMONY or Transfer SIMPLE
Jan. I Was the Date, Salon Of Palace at
Havana the Place and Many Military
Men the Participants.
Americans in Charge.

The sovereignty of Spain over
Cuba passed into the hands of
the United States at noon on the
LIST. The form of the transfer
was simple, consisting only of an
exchange of speeches in the salon
of the palace, the hauling down
of the Spanish flag and the rails
ing in its stead of the United
States flag on the flagstaff of the
palace roof. Salutes were fired
from the heavy guns of the forts
and warships before and after the
change of flags. Maj. Gen. D..
r. Brooke, governor of Cuba;
Maj. Gen. Ludlow, Maj. Gen.
Chaffee and Maj. Gen. Lee ac-
companied by their stats arrived
at the palace and proceeded to
the salon, where Capt. Gen. Cas-
tellauos joined them. Promptly
at noon the captain general hand
ed the manuscript of his speech
to Interpreter Hart and addressing
himself to Gen. Wade said:
"Gentlemen: In compliance with
the treaty of Paris, the agree
ment of the military commission
ers of the island and the orders
of my king, at this moment of
noon of Jan. l, 1899, there ceases
in Cuba Spanish sovereignty and
begins that of the United States.
In consequence, declare you in
command of the island, with the
obJect that you may exercise it,
declaring to you that l will be the
first in respecting it. Peace hav-
ing been established between our
respective governments, | prom
Use to give all due respect to the
United States government, and !
hope that the good relations al
ready existing between our armies
will continue until the termina-
ton of the evacuation of those
under my orders in this terri
tory" After the translation
Gen. Wade said to Gen. Brooke;
81 transfer this command to
you" The latter said: 81 ac-
cept this great trust in behalf of
the government and the presi-
dent of the United States, and
addressing Capt. Gen. Castella-
nos) | wish you and the gentle
men with you pleasant return
to your native land. May pros
perity attend you and all who are
with you" After the ceremonies
Gen. Brooke held reception at
the palace, attended by thous-
