HAVANA FINANCES.
Haskins Says the City Is Able to Garry
n $25,OOo,000 Debt.


Havana. Feb. 21.--The work in the
city finances, which Mr. Haskins. the
expect accountant, has been engaged
in, is drawing to a close. He will report
to General Ludlow, governor of the de-
partment of Havana, that the city is
able to bear $25,000000 debt. The pre-
sent six per cent. obligations, amount
ing to $12,500, 900. will be refunded and
the remainder of the new bond issue
will be used for improvements. 1t is
the existing debt alone which stands
in the way, and If refunded, which
Mr. Haskins thinks could be done
at per cent, the issue of
s25, 900, 900 would be favorably received
in New York at 5 per cent. There are
no legal obstacles in the way of an
immediate refundng, provided the city
council wishes to do so. General Lud-
low desires to have Havana severed
and paved under his immediate direc-
ton. He has had much experience and
takes much interest in municipal i'm
provements. He would prefer to lay
aside the Dady and Hawley projects.
The Havana council may repudiate
all the contracts of the other adminis-
tration and begin over again. letting
the holders of such contracts fight for
their claims in the courts.
Mr.. Haskins' expert opinion of the
bonding possibilities will no doubt be
accepted by General Ludlow and the
finance commission and will hurt the
Dady contract providing for a new six
per cent. $14,000,000 issue. on the basis
of 80, which would realize $12.60O000.
Senor Galvis. president of the Spanish
bank, has arranged with d syndicate

Poor Exhibition by Home Team and Auburn

Waterville. Me. June 4.-(SpeciaD.-
The Waterville High school boys
dropped their first game of the season,
Saturday morning TO the Edward Lit
tie school nine. The game was stretch
ed out longer than usual from the fact
that in the sixth inning the Watervile
bows seemed to be overcome by kind
of stage fright which the Auburn boys
lost no time in taking advantage of and
batted around. The game was by all
odds the most loosely played game the
Watervllle boys have put up. AS a
general thing, the High school boys
have put up a star game 50 far this
season Saturdays was an exception.
The loss of the game was not due SO
much to the loose work of any one par
ticular man, but each seemed to be UNI
able to gather in the balls that came
his way.
The batting by the visitors was in a
measure largely responsible for Water
ville's loosing the game. Not only did
they hit hard, but more than that, they
were able to place their hits wherever
they pleased McCorkell, in the fourth
inning was replaced by Haydn on ac-
count of the formers suffering from a
slight injury he had received.
on account of the Intercollegiate
meet, only eight innings were played.
