End of Inquest Near ut Hand-AdjOurM-
mcnt May be Ordered.
New York, Feb. 26.--If the inquest into
| the death of Mrs Kate Adams is not
completed by Tuesday night Coroner
yBausch will demand that further hear
ing be adjourned until he can dispose of
some outstanding cases. The Adams in
quest has occupied the coroner's court
for the last two weeks and as con-
sequence all the coroners are far behind
in their work. Coroner Hart had con-
ference to-day with Coroner Bausch and
promised to order the adjournment.
Coroner Bausch gave as reasons for his
demands that there is no prisoner in the
Adams case and that therefore the in
terests of justice could not suffer by a
few days delay, while in several of the
cases on the coroner's calendar there are
prisoners on bail and in confinement
He says that justice demands that the
evidence against the prisoners should be
heard and determined without further
delay. Coroner Hart said to-day that
Assistant District Attorney Osborne told
him he expected to finish the Adams
case before the end of the ensuing week.
Cornish is to have another session on

ployes of the I<nickerbocker Athletic
club are to be called and then the police
OF the detective bureau ana the hand
writing experts will tell what they know
and what they suspect. 1t is announc-
ed, that contrary to precedent in the
coroner's court Mr., Osborne will make
a general summing up to the jury when
all the evidence is in.
District Attorney Gardiner tonight
said: There may be an arrest before
Saturday. One of the men who rented
letter boxes says he can make positive
Identification. Nicholas A. Hickman,
who rented a private letter box to a
person who used the naem of ''Hf C.
Barnet" will probably testify to-mor-
row. He is positive that he can iden-
tify his customer. Captain McCluskey
said to-day: II believe that before next

THE INDEPENDENCE OF CUBA
CUBANS SEE MOST PROMISING
AUGURIES OF 1T.
Tacon Theater In Havana-GOvernOr-
General Brooke, General Lee and Gem
eraI Gomez Present-American COM
manders Speak of independence.


Havana, Feb. 26-The banquet at the
Tacon theater last evening proved brill
liantly successful. Governor General
Brooke and General Lee spoke. Cubans
generally regard the occurrences at the
of Cuban independence since the peace
protocol was signed. The theater was
crowded to overfowing and more than
two hundred covers were laid for the
banquetters. Beside the governor gem
eral and General Lee, the company in
cluded General Ludlow, General Chaffee
other army and navy officers and many
prominent citizens and Havana officials.
General Andrade sat on the right of
General Gomez and Mayor LaCoste on
his left.
The boxes We're filled with people rep
resenting Havana's best society. AS
the American generals entered, trum-
peter blew once, whereupon a band
played "The Star Spangled Banner" ;"
When the Cuban comanders entered the
trumpet was sounded twice and the
band played the Cuban hymn. Among
the speakers were Senior Pedro Lloren-
to, Colonel Carlos Garcia Gualberto Go
mez, and DR.. Luna, secretary Of the de-
partment of justice. The tendency Of
all the speeches was toward independ-
ence for Cuba, with eulogy of General
Gomez. The spectators called vocifer-
ously for speech from General Lee. His
remarks and those of General Brooke
were translated for the benefit Of the
assembly by Senior Desvernines.
Both the American generals repeated
former statements Of the military ad-
ministration, chiefly along the line of as
surance that the United States intended
to establish a stable government in the
island and then to deliver it to the Gu
bans themselves These assurances
were vociferously applauded.
General Gomez did not speak owing
to hoarseness. General Andrade ex-
pressed thanks on his behalf, adding
that the banquet had done much to
bring the Cuban and American elements
to a clear understanding. General Co
mez withdrew from the theater about
midnight, the crowds in the street ap-
plauding him wildly. General Gomez
who is much in need of rest, said last
evening to a friend. This popularity
is killing me-"
This afternoon the prado and park
were crowded with merrymakers, it be-
ing the last carnival Sunday, people
wearing masks and throwing flowers ev-
erywhere. General Gomez in a four
horse drag with Miss Herra seated on
his right drove up and down the Prado
thrice and around the park followed by
crowds on foot and on horseback, and
was greeted with cheers. The drag was
covered with bright colored paper
streamers and the carnival license al
lowed the merrymakers to throw flowers
upon the general. Music and fireworks
attracted large crowds to the park this
evening. The presence of General
Gomez in Havana and his participation
in the carnival demonstrations has in
creased the open talk in favor of indie
pendent and for a brief continuance of
the military occupation.

A SHAMEFUL SITUATION.

After overrunning large
section of the Island of Luzcn,.
the American army finds itself
back in Manila Fighting desper.
ately to hold the defenses of
that city.
Commander John. D. Ford,
feet engineer of the Asiatis
squadron, who has. Just return
ed to this country, says: When
l. left Manila May 9 we held not
quite as much ground us was
ours during, the first part of Au-
gust last year, and our lines
were restricted to the suburbs
of Manila"
That the situation has become
still worse since Commander
Ford left will be seen by refer.
ence to the map printed in the
Post Dispatch, showing the
battle-ground where Lawton is
surrounded by Filliplnos. A
few months ago all the territory
along Manila Bay, from Cavite
TO the city of Manila, was in
American possession. Aguin-
aldo's army is intrenched there
now and Lawton is having a
hard fight to dislodge them.
Is the political blunder of
criminal aggression, to be fol-
flowed by military paralysis?
The island can be conquered if
men enough are employed.
But there seems to be no ener-
getic intelligence at Washing
ton ready TO take the response
bility of acknowledging that
the war is hopeless with a
smaN army. Military men in
sist that an army of $4,000 or
100000 must be sent out, but
the President seems to be afraid
to face the difficulty he himself
has created. Gen.. Miles might
put some life into the nerveless
gang, but he is lin politica
disgrace" and therefore his
talents are not available.
The situation, is shameful.
