was given Syears in the penitentiary,

noon and had an interview with Prose
cutor Pomerene. The Messrs. Bender,
at the time of the robbery offered a re-
reward of $400 for the arrest and con-
viction of the burglars or any one Of
them. Henderson is in the penitentiary
and it is believed others who were en-
gagged in the affair are also in the same
place. The Bender brothers today in

they were ready to turn over the $4O0
and rendered the prosecutor draft.
The prosecutor stated to News-Dem-

SITUATION IN CUBA.
Views of Rev. Alfred de Barritt, a
Congregational Minister.
Says II an Outbreak Against Amer
leans should Occur II would ne
TEcIr Fnult-UnfrIendly AttI-
tude of American Officers.

Rev. Alfred de Barritt, who, four
months ago, founded a Congregational
church in the city of Havana, has re-
turned to this country for help in aid
of his religious and educational work
in Cuba.
Mr.. De Barritt spoke about present
conditions in Cuba and the possibility
of an outbreak against the Americans.
"If this occurs" he added, "it will be
bans are peaceful people, but they
are also proud and sensitive, and many
things have been done recently to anger
them. The Cubans feel that they are
being treated very much as though
they had been conquered by us. At
any rate, the Washington authorities
should do away with the present mill
tary government. 1t is worse than un-
necessary; it is doing an immense deal
of harm. A great many of the Ameri-
can officers don't like the Cubans, and
don't scruple to let this be known. How
can you expect the Cubans to like
them? Gen. Brooke and Gen. Lee are
liked and trusted, but their influence
for good is nullified by the attitude of
other officers.
"The payment of the Cuban troops
and requiring them to lay down their
arms was a mistake. The disarming
was great humiliation to the men
and the first thing a good many of
them did with their $75 each, was TO
buy new guns and machetes.
"There Is as yet no distinct idea in
the minds of the majority of the peo-
pie as to what they really want, whether
annexation or independence. But they
obtain their ideas of the United States
government from the American officers,
and these ideas are not favorable"

DoUBLE-DECKED TURRETs.
A Most Important Question That
Must BE Settled in Regard to the
Kentucky and Kearsarge.

The question of double-decked tur-
rets on the new battleships Kentucky
and Kearsarge will shortly be present
ed to the navy departme in forcible
form. The ships are now nearing COM
pletion and will probably be ready for
their trial trip at Newport News by No
vember. 1t is now realized that this
method of adding to the armament Of
ship is most unwise, as it not only i'm
perils the lives Of the officers and men
who must inhabit the turrerts, but may
contribute to the instability Of the
ships which carry this enormous load.
The officers who will be detailed on
the ships for the trials object to the
arrangement, although they have not
been on board, and the ships turrets
have not been put III place yet.
Capt. w. NJ. Folger, former chief of
ordnance, who will command the Kear-
sarge, will probably file a protest
against the system; he will, however,
await the results of the first expert
ments at sea with the double-decled
turrets. While at the navy department
recently he expressed himself to the
officials in such a way as to indicate his
purpose, and he was comforted with
sympathy for his complaint, which may
encourage him to ask to have the upper
turrets, containing eight-inch guns, re-
moved.
This may require many changes in
the armament, so as to make other dis
position of that caliber, which is the
most effective, in some respects, on
ships of war-mpch more serviceable
than the fve-inch guns which consti-
tute the remainder of the battery of
the Kentucky and Kearsarge, besides
the 13-inch guns. The work of chang
ing the double-decked turrets will be
costly, but it appears to be absolutely
necessary If the stability and efficiency
of the two battleships are to be con-
sidered:

line:
