apprehensive Of their future conouct, ana

The nomination Of Gen. Leonard wood
to be mnjor-gensral, 10 undoubtedly pre-
llminAry to his appointment to the mill
tary governorsbip Of Cuba. A while age
1t was said that the President was going
to terminate the military government
a-d appoint Wood civil governor. but
this plan has apparently been abandoned,
1t difficulties proving many and its advan-
tages not sufficiently numerous to OBJECT
the public sentiment In Cuba. which Is
ssid TO be in favor Of continuing the MILL
iay regime rather than Substituting
,iviI governments, holding that the latter
will tend to a postponemsnt Of the indie
pendence of the island.

The claims of the corporations con-
cernsd by the cutting on Of the flow OF
water In the Presumpscot river on Satur-
Cay night, are given In outline elsewhere.
The counsel for the Warren company
strsnuously denies that there was any
malice against the Portland Electric
Light Company In the shuttiig of Of the
water on Saturday night, claiming that
the thing has been done for great many
years past when the water in the river
wss Low forlthe purpose of Outstanding 1t
for week days when the mills are run
ming. The right Of the company to do
this IL asserted by the counsel for the
Warrsns and strsnuously denied BY the
counsel for the Sebago Power Company
and the Portland Elsotrio Light Com
pany. and II Is evident that to settle the
question appeal must be taken to the
courts. The matter may prove an intri-
cate one and much time elapse before a
decision ID arrived ct. It would be folly
for US to express any opinion - to the
legal merits Of this case, but looking ct
the matter purely from the standpoint Of
equity It would seem to have been only
fair on the part Of the Warren company
II 1t contemplated an act which was Ger
tain to plunge lsrge part Of the city Of
Portland into darkness at midnight to
nave notified the city Of its intention 90
as to enable 1t to have taken some meas
ures to meet such q contingency. In
emitting to do that 1t seems to rs that
the company did not act as oonsidsratsly
and fairly as 1t ought TO have done under
the circumstances.
In considering this question IL must
be borne In mind that the Warrsns are
engaged In electric lighting, the DserinR
district being lighted by them. and that
their power comes from the same river
as the Portland electric Light company's.
Their lights ran through Saturday night.
The shutting o a Of the water was 90 reg
ulated that their own electric light plant
did not suffer.
