TO HELP CUBAN TEACHERS
Harvard University Offers Six Weeks
Tuition Free.
One Thousand Can Be Accommodated
plan Originated in Havana
Harvard Club.

HAVANA, February IA cable dispatch
from Charles William Eliot, president of
Harvard University, to Alexis E. Frye, SUI
perintendent of schools, will probably have
the effect of doing more for Cuba's future
than anything vet accomplished. Some
weeks ago Mr.. Frye proposed plan to
Governor General Wood which had been
discussed at the Havana Harvard Club
namely, endeavoIing to obtain permission
for one thousand Cuban teachers to attend
the Harvard Summer School for Teachers
This morning Mr.. Frye received President
Eliot's reply, offering to provide. free of
charge, for one thousand Cubans during
SIX weeks of the summer. Mr.. Frye and
Mr.. Ernest Lee Conant notified General
Wood, who was greatly pleased, as he be-
Hcves that the advantages to be gained for
all concerned will be enormous and will
have great effect on the Cuban children
new attending the schools. The teachers
will be surrounded for a time by academic
influences and will be elbow to elbow with
American teachers, which cannot but have
an influence on the methods of teaching in
the island.
1t is believed that arrangements can lie
made to send the teachers to the United
States CT board of transports.
Mr.. Frye also CoItemplates that another
six weeks sliail be utilized in visiting every
city of Importance from Maine to Cali
fornia. He believes that the railroads will
render assistance ard. also, that probably
the municipalities will invite the teachers
to be their guests during their stay. lie
says that if il car be accomplished he will
consider one of the greatest problems of
the Cuban situation as settled.

ADVANCE GUARD IN TOWN
Milwaukee's Effort to Secure the Demo
cratic National Convention.
Delegation Two Hundred Strong to
Leave for Washington Monday
MIR. Mclean Interviewed.

The advance guard Of the big delegation
of Milwaukee business men which will in
wade Washington Monday in the interest of
securing the democratic national conven-
ton for the beer city is not allowing any
moss to cling to it's efforts.
Mr.. Wall, the national committeeman
from Wisconsin, said this afternoon that
fifteen states are already represented in
Washington by their respective committee
men or proxies. OF this number a large
majority. he declared, have personally ex-
pressed their preference for Milwaukee.
Ex-Governor George w. Peck and Mayor
Rose of Milwaukee by Encouragement
called on John r. Mclean at the latters
home this forenoon and were in conference
with him for nearly an hour. 1t is under
stood Mr.. Mclean, who is. said to have
vice presidential aspirations, will not force
the attention of the national committee to
the claims of Cincinnati meeting place
for the convention, and that in return the
friends of Milwaukee in the committee will
vote to have the democratic national head
quarters located in Columbus, McLeans
state.
Mr.. Mclean, 1t is said, was given to I'M
derstand that the committee might not look
favorably on the proposition to accord Ohio
all the honors at its disposal: hence Cincin-
natl will not be considered seriously in the
race.
A member of the national committee de-
clared emphatically to a Star reporter to-
day that if the convention goes to Mil
waukee the campaign will be directed from
Columbus.
The Milwaukee delegation, 200 strong, will
depart from that city tomorrow and will
arrive in Washington Monday evening.
The Rival Cities.
The democratic national committee Is to
meet at the Raleigh Hotel in this city the
22d Of this month. to decide upon the time
and place of holding the national conven-
ton. 1t Is very widely believed that the
sas City.
already in the city, consists of ex-Gov.
Peck of Wisconsin, Mayor David S. Rose CT
Milwaukee, National Committeeman Wall.
ex-Representative Somers and John z.
Hume.
The Kansas City delegation is not yet
here, but much work in behalf of that city
is being done by the Missourians in Con-
gress.
The Milwaukee people urge that they can
as any city in the country and the best
of reasons why it should go there.
Mayor Rose said to Star reporter today
that the railroad facilities are about what
they are in Chicago; the hotel accommoda
tons unsurpassed, and the climate at the
season of conventions as delightful as could
be found anywhere, while to accommodate
the convention they have the magnificent
Exposition Auditorium building, with a ca
pacity of accommodating 1000 people.
The Exposition Auditorium, he said, was
very convenient to a large number of fine
hotels. and the Geographic facilities for the
press would be all that could be wished for.

BONES OF JOHN PAUL JONES.
Their Resting Place Has Been An
prOximately Located.

The Secretary Of the Navy has received q
letter from Lieut.. VIM. s. Sims, naval at
tache at the United States embassy at
Paris, in regard to the prospects of recov-
ering the remains Of Commodore John Paul
Jones from their resting place in the
French capital. Lieut.. Sims says:
ut is the opinion Of the ambassador that
the remains Of John Paul Jones are def
nitely located in the area clearly indica ted
to be matter of conjecture as to whether
the actual remains of John Paul Jones
could be identified. This would depend on
whether or not he was buried in such a
manner that his remains would be pre-
served. and particularly whether his coffin
bore any inscription, and whether he was
buried In a uniform or with sword or
some emblem Of his former grade.
NJ de Ricaudy states in the report above
referred ITO. that the information given
therein Is taken from documents existing in
various archives and from authentic plans
of the city of Paris, and that no statement
has been made that is not supported by
documentary proof that in each case can be
produced II needed. In view of the repu-
locating Che body Of Turgot it Is . safe -, IN
conclude that the statements contained in
the report can' as ne says. be thoroughly
authenticated. a
by reason IL the occupation of M. de
Ricaudy, he mas not been able I'D to the
present time to give me any further details
concerning this subject, but in conversation
with him he acknowledges that. although
he Is absolutelytconvinced that the body of
John Paul Jones was buried in the area in
Dictated and has never been removed he
still considers ib'purely conjectural whether
or not it would be possible to identify the
remains, although he is reasonably sure
that he has established within a narrow
limit the site where the body was buried.
1t was by reason of this uncertainty of
Identifying the body that M. de Ricaudy
suggested the advisability of acquiring a
in this cemetery, and, after clearing it of
the inconsiderable structures which now
cover 1t, to make 1t small square and
naval hero.
An effort is being made to have Con-
gress authorize the purchase of the pron-
erty in Paris and the erection of monu-
ment there.
