will go to Cincinnati on Friday At s

Touching the question of annexation
Mr.. Bryan said:
THE party which was willing to op-
pose the gold standard because it was
wrong, ought to be great enough to
oppose an English colonial system be-
cause it is wrong. 1t is astonishing
that any man living in this age of the
world, living in the United States.
should uphold the doctrines of securing
land by conquest. Jefferson was against
it long years ago. Blaine was against
it in 1890. And a year ago last Decem-
ber the president of the United States
sent message to congress, and in that
message he said:
I speak not of forcible annexation.

SURPRISE FOR FUS|ON|STS
REPUBLICANS AND POPS Or

Democrats and Silver Republicans

Boise, Ida, Jan. 4.-The Idaho legis-

morning Governor Steunenberg's mes
sage will be transmitted, and then the
legislature will take up the task OF in
jecting life into Idaho's dead laws.
There was a genuine surprise in the
senate when that body was organized
by the gold Republicans and the Popu-
lists, leaving the Democrats and silver
Republicans out in the cold The Of
fees were equally divided, and the or
ganiZation was as follows:

Santiago de Cuba, Jan. 4.-Meetings
were held at all the political clubs last
night, and even the most conservative
people, those favoring the annexation
of Cuba to the United States, were
astounded at the orders from Havana
for the Capitalization of the customs
money there. The past forty-eighc
hours have completely altered the sit
uation of affairs here. The provinces
had settled down and was cOntented
with the order of things prevailing,
recognizing the benefits conferred. Now
there is a complete change, and there
is no exaggeratiOn in saying that the
situation is so critical that a spark
Will set up a blaze which would plunge
the province into inSurrectiOn. 1t is
generally admitted that if 1000 men
were suddenly discharged from the
public works, such action would prob
ably cause a revolt which it would be
hard to quell.
Major General John r. Brooke, the
governor general of Cuba, is apparent
ly ignoring General Leonard Wood, in
command here, and is cabling direct to
his subordinates. He has ordered the
acting. collector of customs to bank no
money, and the commanding general
of the province has ordered his officers
to close several minor offices. including
Bayamo, practically shutting off the
mail of the regiments there.
DR.. Castillo viii accompany General
Wood to Washington, representing the
British interests in Santiago, to lay
these matters before the president
General Woods work here is now more
thoroughly appreciated by the CubanS.

FOR BRYAN AND SILVER.
Unanimous Sentiment of Illinois
State Democratic Committee.

Springfield, Ills. Jan. 4.-The Demo-
cratic state central committee tonight
declared itself for the Chicago plat
form and for William J. Bryan. Mr.
Bryan was present. and made an ad-
dress, thanking the committee for the
personal compliment, and congratulate
ing the organization on its declaration
in favor of free and unlimited coinage.
The adoption of the resolutions en-
dorsing silver and Mr.. Bryan by an
unanimous vote was something of a
surprise, for it was expected several Of
the members of the committee with
leanings to the gold standard would
oppose any declaration in favor of the
platform of 1896.

who is generally regarded as a strong
anti-silver man, voted with the major
ity. and stated that he did so at the
request of Mr. Cable.
Aside from the declaration of party
policy, the meeting of the committee
was of interest because of the contest
concerning it's organization between
Mayor Harrison and Ex-Governor Alt
geld faction. The Harrison men elected
their candidate. DR.. Walter Watson of
Mount Vernon being chosen state chair

Customs Officers Merely Instructed to
Send Weekly Reports.
Washington, jan -4.-Regarding the
sensational reports from Santiago that
the whole province has been inflamed
by the recent order of the war depart
ment, concentrating all customs
money in Havana" thus threatening
d stoppage of all public improvements
and threatening to throw thousands of
CubanS out of employment, it may be
authoritatively stated that any excite
ment existing in Santiago is due to a
misapprehenSion of the war depart
ments order. 1t seems to have been
taken for granted that the order con-
templates sending all currency col
lected for custom dues to Havana, and
thus cutting off the governor of San
tiagO province from the employment OF
local labor. The fact is that the Off
GERS in charge of customs at the vari-
Gus ports of entry are merely ordered
to make weekly reports to the col
lector of customs of the island at the
chief port of all transactions at the
SUPPORT over which he may have ju-
riSdiction. with copies of entries of
merchandise duly certified"
The customs from all the ports of
the island are to be used for the con-
dition of the Cubans, not only in Ha-~
vana and Santiago, but elsewhere. Ex-
penditureS will be divided as equitably
as possible, so as to relieve distress
existing in various quarters. 1t would
be just as equitable, it is agreed, for
the port of New York to retain all the
custom funds collected there for ex-
penditure of the island Of Manhattan as
it would be for Havana or Santiago or
any other town in Cuba to gObble all of
the customs receipts for expenditure
within its own borders.
So far from the war department.
contemplating any curtailment of the
relief work in Cuba, an order already
has been issued to the governor gen.
eral, directing him to furnish work to
every able-bodied Cuban applying for
it at a fair rate of weekly wages,
measured by Cuban standards. The or
der suggests that the best lines of em-
ployment are in sanitary work, road
improvement and municipal work of
various sorts.
1t is intended to offer a chance for
remunerative work to all who are able
to take advantage of it, and to cut off
the gratuitOuS distribution of rationS
among the natives able to work for
what they eat. The employment con-
templated will not be offered, however,
to any resident of the island who re-
tains his allegiance to Spain
