The Worcester spy. [volume] (Worcester, Mass.) 1898-1904, 1899-11-13

Washington, D. c., Nov. 1.-THE gov
ernorships of Cuba and Porto Rico are
giving the administration considerable
thought. The military men of rank in
Cuba are, 1t is said, all so opposed to
having Gen. Leonard Wood, who is only
major in the regular army, made gov
ernor over them that the president may
fall back upon his second choice, who
is understood to be Assistant Secretary
Meiklejohn of the war department, the
official superior of all the generals.
President Mckinley would also like to
have q Massachusetts man for COVER
nor of Porto Rico, his first choice for
that place being Charles II. Allen, as
sistant secretary Of the navy. The pres
ident thinks very highly of Mr.. Allen,
and has had him in mind as the man to
succeed Secretary Long if the latter
should leave the cabinet, but the presi-
dent regards the problem of Porto Rico
as calling for man of cabinet size, and
has picked Mr.. Allen out as just the
man for the first civil governor of
Porto Rico because of his administra-
tive qualities, his fine judgment and
his courage and independence.
1t is stated that no formal offer of
the place has been made to Mr. Allen,
and it is regarded as doubtful If he
would consider such an offer favorably,
even though it would come in most
fiatte1ng terms, for he is well placed
in his present office and has probably
no desire to live in Porto Rico or any
where outside of the United States.
Mr.. Allen was asked if he would ac-
cept, but he declined to discuss it in
any way. He said simply that the
place had not been rendered to him,
and in view of the fact that no offer
had been made, he could not talk about
The Worcester spy. [volume] (Worcester, Mass.) 1898-1904, 1899-11-13

the subject. 1t is learned, however,
that Mr.. Allen has no desire to leave
the navy department, and will not go
to Porto Rico unless the president puts
1t IN such way that it would be al
most impossible for him to refuse.
Between Mr.. Allen and the president
there has extended a long intimacy. Mr.
Allen was member of the house
which passed the Mckinley bill, and he
gave Nj. Mckinley much assistance in
the preparation of the features of that
famous measure. There was a small
group of members in that congress who
regarded Mr.. Mckinley as their natural
leader Mr. Allen was member of that
coterie. He was Mr.. McKinley's fire.
quent companion in his walks about
the city, and they were much together.
Since Mr.. Mckinley has come back to
Washington as president and Mr.. Allen
as assistant secretary of the navy, the
president has been much impressed
with the great ability Mr.. Allen has
shown in the management of the affairs
of his department. Mr.. Aliens sound
judgment his level head and his capa-
city for doing great deal of work
without making any parade about it,
have convinced the president that he
is an extremely valuable man to have
in the government service.
In addition to these qualities, he pos
sesses tact and a"happy faculty of
making friends. All these things seem
to make him just the man to take
charge of the difficult problems with
which the civil governor of Porto
Rico will have to grapple. and it is
easy enough to understand why the
president should be anxious to have
him accept the appointment If Mr.. AL
len copsults his personal preferences, he
will not leave Washington; if he feels
that patriotism demands the sacrifice,
he will go to Porto Rico.

speed and interior appointment that
each line makes a scale to suit itself.
Emil Boas, manager in this country Of
the Hamburg interests, when
seen in the Broadway office, New York
Saturday, said:
WON'T BE A RATE WAR.
ut is certain that the minimum rate
for a single passage on any of our first
class steamships-the express steam
ships-will not be below 800. We had
at the beginning Of the 1899 season a
rate of $55 That was caused by the rate
war We shall not have that rate next
year The lowest rate will go back to
it's old figure of 800. suppose the rate
on single screw liners-that is, certain
of the single screw vessels-will be $75
but this it is impossible to say with
certainty just now.
Subject to advance means the adj
vance Of the minimum rates, and it does
not refer to any advance in higher
priced berths- For example, in our
steamships we will~charge from $100 to
1915 on our express steamships next
year This refers to single berths. We
have rooms that will go as high as $3.50
for a single passage-deck cabins that
go even higher"
The rates on the first class vessels do
not include vessels like the Deutsch-
land, when she appears, nor probably
the Oceanic nor Kaiser Wilhelm der
Crosse and vessels of their class.
Practically the same information was
vouchsafed at the White Star, the North
German Lloyds, the Anchor and other
lines.

THE SOCIETIES ASSEMBLED
for the parade in the yard of St.
Johns parochial school for boys, and
the order to march was given shortly
after the conclusion of the mass. Capt.
jeremiah j. Moynihan was in com
mand with the following staff: Rev.
NJ. T. O'Brien, Matthew B. Lamb,
Lieut.. James E. McGourty, Francis p.
McKeon, Thomas C. Carrigan and

The route of the parade was up Tenn

There was no attempt at elaboration
of ceremonial in the laying of the cor

impressive and striking scene, for the
bishop wore the robes of his order He

in the same manner that it has been
done from time immemorial.
Mgr. Griffin made a short address of
congratulation. He thanked the bish-

one that in any way contributed to the
success of the undertaking.

Worcester people who are intending

is no rate war to fear next year, and the
conference held in London Friday is ex-

among all the transatlantic lines fixing
q scale OF minimum rates. 1t has nothing
whatever to do with the rates for state
rooms other than the few that are de-

not even mean that these shall go for
the minimum rate but it does mean that
every line in the agreement will not

agreed upon.

General Butlar on the Cubans.

Major General M. C. Butler, one
of the members of the evacuation
commission appointed by the
president to 60 to Cuba and arrange
the terms for the embarkation of
the Spanish soldiers from the Is
land, was there for o number Of
weeks and was intimately thrown
with the leading .Cubans of the
Island. He devoted himself to q
careful study of the conditions of
country and its people, and seems
to have received good Impressions,
as we'll as to have made favorable
impression upon them. A prom
inent Cucan attorney, the personal
representative in Havana of.General
Gomez, Honorable Fernando M.
Vidal, addressed letter to General
Butler asking an expression Of
opinion from him concerning the
character of the people of Cuba,
their future prospects, and whether
or not i nhis opinion they are
capable of self government. Gen
eral Buffers letter is written in
the kindliest spirit and was
evidently we'll considered and au-
lucrative. The following
paragraphs may be taken as the
key to his reply:
