Document Discusses Numerous and
Important Topics.
Ii Is UNUSUALLY LONG.
Members Of the Cabinet Say the Mes
sage II "a Strong and Able
state Paper.

Washington. Nov 2s.--The Presidents
annual message Is practically compet-
ed and ready for transmission to Con-
gress when IL assemblies next week.
The message will be unusually long on
account Of the numerous and important
topics 1t discusses.
The portions Of the message treating
Of different topics have been sent to the
public printer as they have been fin
ished and proofs have been submitted
for revision. 1t Is not certain that the
message Will b. sent 20 Congress next
Monday IL is customary to send Il on
the day OF the assembling Of Congress,
but as the death OF the Vice. President
makes Il certain that the Senate at
least Will adjourn Immediately out OF
respect TO his memory Il Is not un-
likely that the message viii be With
held until Tuesday. I'm the House the
adjournment will only be delayed until
that body is organized when upon the
announcement OF the death OF the Vice
President II also VIII adjourn.
The cabinet meeting today was devot-
ed almost exclusively 20 the considera-
ton OF the Presidents message. a
large portion Of the message was read
by the President, after which the mem
bers entered into long discussion Of
the policies and recommendations II
contained. II met with general approx
al, and after the meeting adjourned
several Of the members expressed the
opinion that II was unusually strong
and able document.
The protests which the cable reports
from Cuba says some OF the Cuhans are
making against the reported establish
ment Of a civil government In cuba
were incidentally brought TO the atten-
ton Of the cabinet by Secretary Root.
None Of these protests, however have
been officially received here.
Secretary Root said IN answer to a
question on this subject, that there was
no immediate intention of establish
Ing a civil government In Cuba. This
however must only be taken to mean
that no decision has yet been reached
concerning the appointment of a civil
governor which has been under cOnsid-
GRAFTON for some time but II can be
stated upon high authority that the al
legged fermentation now going on In
cuba against the establishment of a
civil government may result in allowing
the present military government TO
continue longer than II otherwise would.
The administration does not seek TO
force upon the Cubans a civil govern
ment that would BE- offensive 20 the ma
Jorlty OF the inhabitants Of the island.
