Havana, Feb %. - The banquet at
the Tacon theater Saturday evening
proved a brilliantly successful affair.
Gov. Gen. Brooke and Maj. Gen. Lee
spoke. Cubans generally regard the oc-
currenceS at the function as the most
promising auguries of Cuban indie
pendence since the peace protocol was
signed. The theater was crowded to
overlooking with spectators, and more
than 200 covers were laid for the
banqueters. Besides the governor
general and Gen. Lee the company in
Guided Maj. Gen. Ludlow. Gen. Chat
fee, the governor generals chief of
staff; the staffs of Generals Lee and
Ludlow and other army and naval Of
fcers, together with many prominent
citizens and Havana officials. Gen.
Andrade sat on the right of Gen. Go
meZ and Mayor LacOste on his left.
The boxes were filled with people rep
resenting Havana's best society. AS
the American generals entered a
trumpeter blew once, whereupon con-
cealed band played 1.-THE Star Spangled
Banner" When the Cuban command
er entered the trumpeter sounded
twice and the band played the Cuban
hymn. Among the speakers were
Senior Pedro Llorento, Col. Carlos
Garcia, Culberto Gomez and Gen.
Lanusa, secretary of the department
of justice. The tendency of all the
speeches was toward independence
for Cuba with eulogy of Gen. Gomez
and assertions that he must never
more leave the island.
Gen. Gomez himself did not speak,
owing to the hoarseness from which
he is suffering. Gen. Lanusa ex-
pressed thanks on his behalf, adding
that the banquet had done much to
bring the American and Cuban ele-
ments to clear understanding and to
define the position, work and aims Of
the United States military administra-
ton in Cuba. Gen. Gomez withdrew
from the .theater about midnight,
crowds in the streets applauding him
wildly as he emerged and followed
his carriage for blocks. Gen. Gomez,
who is much in need of rest, said to q
friend: "This popularity is killing
me-"

The caIylegram from Admiral Dew
ey asking for the Oregon was received
with surprise by the officials here. No
one knew, or at least would admit
that he knew, the nature of the polit-
zeal reasons which the admiral says
demands the immediate presence Of
the peerless battleship.
The cabinet gave some attention to
Dewey's cable message relative to the
political Importance of sending the
Oregon at once to Manila. The con-
clusion reached was that too much i'm.
portance should not be attached to it;
that Dewey wants the big ship to in

an explanation of the reference to po-
litical reasons in the dispatch: ST

significance. You may state chat pos

1t is suggested from other naval
sources that Dewey wants the Oregon
to release a number of the smaller

The Americanization of Puerto Rico
is in an encouragingly progressive
state. The inhabitants seem to well
come and appreciate all measures de-
signed to further their social and civic
well-being. It is almost pathetically
suggestive that a people so long under
the domination of Spanish law, in
whose methods of Jurisprudence ha-
beas corpus had no place, and of whose
gracious meaning they were practically
ignorant, should request its application
throughout the island. Much to their
rejoicing, the system of direct taxa
ton is to be abolished. Under Spanish
rule, it's workins were bitterly oppres-
sive and the visit of the tax collector
was the prelude of cruelty and despoil-
ment.

The National Carbon Company was

The National Carbon Company was
organized during January under
the laws of New Jersey, with a capital
of s1O,OOO,0OO, $4,500,Oo0 of which is
in per cent non-cumulative pre-
ferred stock and $5,500,00o in common
stock. The corporation will absorb
the principal manufacturers of carbon
supplies, particularly electric light car
bons, carbon brushes for motors and
electrolytic carbons for all varieties OF
smelling purposes. Arthur ]. Eddy OF
Chicago, who was prominent in the or
ganization of the American Linseed
Company recently, is the promoter OF
the enterprise, and Chicago capital is
interested. These companies are said
to include the entire active carbon in
dustry of the United States and three
quarters of the carbon industry Of the
world. In addition to the United
States industries the new company will
own a half interest in the Ottawa Car
bon Company of Ottawa. Canada
which company controls the carbon In
dustry of Canada.

interviewed the duke, who confded
his hopes to him.
Prince Victor Napoleon is considered
here a much more serious pretender.
because less impatient, more dignifed
and absolutely silent. He also is
watched by French detectives. They
learned that he often drives an auto
mobile, and sometimes ventures
few miles into French territory. So
they got an automobile from Paris to
follow him in case of need. One nOta-
BILE feature Of the stay of the due d Or
leans is that although he went to the
royal palace of the court of Flanders,
he was neither received by the king
nor the kings brother. He only re-
ceived the visit Of the duke of Ven
dome, and it is believed that the king
directly advised him through the lat
ter to prolong his stay in Belgium as
little as possible.

Manila, Feb 26. - Owing to the
wholesale arrests Of all suspected Fill
ipinos yesterday and the clearances OF
the streets at o'clock last night the
threatened renewal Of the scenes OF
the previous night did not occur. With
the exception of a few shots fired in
the neighborhood of the penitentiary
the city was as quiet rs possible.
Outside Manila the natives were very
active. Near Caloocan the brigade
commanded by Gen. Harrison Grey
Otis had several lively skirmishes
with them, but at daylight the enemy
was driven back with severe loss.
The feeling in the city is much i'm
proved and business has generally
been resumed Excellent order is
maintained by Gen. Hughes police
force, which Is universally commend
ed. The Scandal has arrived with the
Twelfth infantry on board. The enc

larly active about Caloocan all day.
Special attention was paid to the
three-gun battery near the railroad
and the improvement Of the rebel
craftsmanship was very noticeable.

In common with many other trades,
the silk industry terminated a pros
porous year on December 81 last. Com
menting on the conditions governing
the trade, the Silk Association Of
America, through its secretary, has
this to say: Rising prices in the
raw-silk markets of the world have
produced a decided rise in the prices
of raw silk In this market during the
last thirty days. This naturally nee
essitates rise in all silk products, and
some of the branches Of the trade have
formally agreed In an advance of
prices. In this country at present
there are $1,000 power looms for broad
silk weaving and 5000 for ribbon
weaving. During the year there have
been a number of additional plants es-
tablished in this country by foreign
firms. and naturally there has been
some extension of facilities by our old
er manufacturers. While additional
facilities of manufacture Is crafty
ing omen, it also carries with it an APP
prehension of facilities unduly In
creased. 1t is hardly necessary to say
that overproduction is about as bad
as a sluggish market-in fact, 1t con-
duces to it.

London, Feb. % - The Copenhagen
correspondent of the Daily Mail says:
Well informed persons here assure me
that the health of Emperor Nicholas is
far from good and his condition causes
the greatest solicitude. His malady
appeared shortly after the issuance OF
the proposition for a disarmament,
and now has assumed serious turn.
His malady is of such character as
to forbid all intellectual exertion. His
participation in the government IS
merely formal, confined to signing doc
uments of whose contents he is ign0-

government decisions are arrived at
without the cars cooperation or

caused great anxiety to the Americans,
who do not conceal their belief that the
war will be a long and desperate one.

the foreign warships are disembark-
