Havana Kicks For Sunday Races.

Havana, Nov. 1.-THE local newspa-
pers object to the criticism made by
some American journals upon Sunday
racing in Havana. They point out
that, after mass on Sunday, all Latin
countries take holiday, and assert
that, if the Americans wish the
Cubans to popularize some sport
as substitute for bull fighting, Sun
days must be devoted to it, because
Saints days are kept strictly for relig-
ious observances and at other times
there is no great number of Cubans
wealthy enough to forsal1e business
for the sake of amusement.
The Discussion, which urges the
high American officers in the island to
continue to patronize noble sport, -
says:
"When 1000 people brave the pros
poets of rain such as was before us
On last racing day, among them the
very best people of Havana, their
course is sufficient proof that the atti-
tude of the American officers are
heartily endorsed by our representa-
| tive society"

money will be loaned for term of
twenty-five or fifty years, and will
draw interest at 1 per cent. In addi-
ton, the syndicate will be allowed to
control a certain percentage of the Gus
toms receipts of the different ports
It is believed by those interested
that this loan will haye the effect of
ending the numerous internal revolu-
tons which have threatened to disrupt
the country. There will be so much
American, English and German capital
involved in the country that the three
powers will necessarily be called upon
to protect their interests, and it is be-
ieved the presence of feet of foreign

tionists that the evils resulting there

FIGURING ON CuBRS FUTURE.
General Brooke VIII Not Be Governor
Long.


Washington, Nov. 13.-The presi-
dents desire is TO have Cuban self-gov-
eminent in operation at once so that
congress may be enabled to observe its
practical workings, and be aided there
by to frame laws for the permanent
government of the island. In any
event, the end of Brooches term as gov
ernor general is close at hand. The
department commanders will remain
for a while, to be ultimately super
seeded by civil governors, if the plan
works well, but the governor general
will go. Nor is there any prospect
that Brooke will exchange the govern
or generalship for the position of civil
governor. That officer, it is under
stood, will be either General Ludlow,
General Wood or General Wilson.
General Fitzhugh Lee is also advocated
for the post. After the appointment
of the civil governor portion of the
army will be withdrawn, but how
large a portion has not been decided
upon. If Cuba does get self-govern-
ment it will be mainly due to Secre-
tary Root. He has urged the substitu-
ton of civil for military government
ever since he entered the cabinet and
has been the prime mover in the cause
of self-government.
