$4,000 FOR CLEAR TITLE.
Land Buyers Assessed Heavily for
Deeds i'm Cuba.

HAVANA, March 3.-The fruit company
which recently purchased a million acres of
land at Nipe bay. paid $4,000 to have the
deeds recorded. titles examined and docu-
ments put in such a state that 1t was safe
to take over the property. A Cuban lawyer
this morning said: Similar cases to this
mainly prevents American capital from
coming to the island. A reliable judiciary
is needed and the sooner Governor General
Woods judiciary committee reports the
better for Cuba. Then action can be taken.
The delay, even in the highest courts, in
connection with the customs house cases
Injuries Cuba in the eyes of her best friends,
while IL enormous amounts are not paid to
perfect the title, every obstacle is placed
In the way and the probability is that you
will own land with an insecure title"
One of the lawyers for the defense in
the customs house fraud cases has pro-
tested TO Senior Estevez, secretary of jus
tice, that the indictment of the fiscal errs
in asking the punishment of some of the
accused, who, counsel claims, ought to be
relieved from prosecution under the de-
cree providing protection for those who
turned states evidence. The matter has
been referred to committee Of the
Audencia.
Governor General Wood says he has de-
cfded not to open any more schools at pres
ent. as the 200 schools already established
which are attended by 80, 900 pupils, prac-
tically meet all the requirements.

and had an interview with Acting Secre-
tary Meiklejohn relative TO the appear

objected very strongly TO his presence

Lee Not to Succeed Ludlow.

WASHINGTON, March SIT is said at
the War Department that there is no i'm
mediate intention of making any changes
in the military commands in Cuba. A
specific denial was made of the story that
General Fitzhugh Lee is to succeed General
Ludlow as military governor of the city of
Havana. General Ludlow's assignment as
president of the military war college is not
intended to interfere with his duties In
Havana, and far known he is likely
TO continue TO act in this capacity until
the War Department has formulated its
plans fer the withdrawal of a large por-
ton of the military forces in Cuba, in an

VICTOR EMnANUEps ECONOMIES.


From The London News.
Before King Victor left Rome he summoned all
the principal functionares of the royal household
and recommended them to be economical
possible. He gave orders that the horses in the
stables should not be replaced except in of
absolute necessity and that their number and that
of the carriages should be limited. King Humbert
had the litters changed four times day; King
Victor has ordered that ii shall be done only twice
The number of horses has been reduced TO sixty
All the others the King has made gifts of to his
cousins. The number of horses for the Kings
use, beyond those for the household is twenty-five
saddle horses and about hundred carriage horses
The whole service of the Quirinal is being re-
formed. The royal dinner table has been reduced
to modest proportions. The King has ordered
the necessary repairs at the palace in Turin to be
made. 1t is His Majesty's intention to settle the
and palaces, which are a heavy burden the
Civil List.
The sums saved by the intended economy will be
employed in favor of the Royal Cuirassiers the
palace police, works of public utility, and the in
crease Of pensions for ali those who by reason Of
age, health etc, dispensed from further ser
vice. The King has ordered the royal apartments
in the Park of Casata TO be prepared, which leads
to the belief that His Majesty will pass days
there during the maneuvres.
