MIST LOOK TO CANADA.

Halifax, N. S., May 3o.-The Halifax
Chronicle is In receipt of special cable
tonight from Kingston. Jamaica, which
states that owing to the menacing posi-
ton taken by the United States govern
ment in regard to tariff relations, the
West India islands are compelled to look
to Canada for relief from an embarrass-
ing commercial situation.
The first step in that direction was
taken by Jamaica today when the legis-
lature of the colony voted an appropria-
ton for the establishment of West
Indian trade agency at Ottawa.
The governor of the colony also an
nouced that negotiations would be
opened with the Canadian government
for the establishment of direct fast
steamship line between Jamaica and
Halifax. The legislature, it is assured,
will vote a substantial subsidy.

PAYING THE CUBANS.
That Rolls Were Padded Badly Is Evi-

Havana, May s0.-Early this morning
Lieut.. Col. Kendall. accompanied by
Paymaster Moses, his clerks, doctor and
a military escort, with nearly S200, 900,
left by special train for Santiago de Las
Vegas; but. owing to various delays,
the payment did not begin until this af-
ternoon.
The Alcslde gave the council chamber
for the purpose of distribution. Many
of the applicants, of whom there was a
large number, were without guns. 1t
was observed that large proportion were
from Marianao. from which point they
were prevented from coming yesterday to
Havana. One man, who had Mauser.
begged a ride on the special train carry
ing the pay car and was the first man to
be paid. Not a single officer would come
forward to identify an applicant, fact
causing con nsiderable annoyance and in
creasing the delay.
That the rolls are padded badly becomes
more and more evident each day, and
Col. Randi says that from what he can
learn every man, dead or alive, who has
ever served in the ranks of the insurgents
appears ON the lists.
The number paid this afternoon was
45, but there were several applicants
with arms entitled TO payment who will
receive it after Identification.
