vitality Necessary to American In
teresta That an Army Beorgan-

Iy Passed.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 1.-THE secre-
tary of war has cabled instructions to
Maj. Gen. Macarthur at Manila to be-
gin the work of returning the volun-
teer troops from the Philippines in or
der to permit of their discharge in this
country by the Both of June next. This
action has been taken in anticipation of
the authorization by congress of the en-
hstment of regular regiments to replace
the recalled troops. Plans for the Or
ganizatiOn of the proposed new regi-
ments have been perfected at the war
department and complete arrangements
made TO" their speedy recruitment and
equipment. Action in this matter
awaits only the approval of congress. 1t
is hoped by the secretary of war and the
military authorities that the bill for the
reorganization of the army now before
the senate will become a law before con-
greSS takes a recess for the holidays on
the 21st inst. The officials make no Sc
cret Of their great concern over the eX-
listing Situa ton and say that the failure
of congress to take immediate action
for its relief undoubtedly will result in
cOnsidera bic embarrassment to the gov
eminent and seriously retard the execu-
ton of the administrations policy for
the establishment of an efficient and
stable government in the archipelago.
The opinion is expressed al the war
department that there is no prospect of
general re-enlistment on the part of the
volunteers in the Philippines.
MEN WON'T RE-ENLIST.
The records of the department all tend
to show that only a small percentage
of the state troops are likely to serve
beyond their present term of enlistment.
Officers serving with volunteer regiments
in the Philippines have been sounded on
that point and have reported general
Discrimination on the part of the volun-
teers to prolong their foreign service.
1t is recalled that a similar state of af
fairs existed among the state volunteers
recruited during the Spanish war. There
were about 5000 of these volunteers in
the Philippines when the volunteer regi-
ments were mustered out at the close of
the Spanish war, and of that number
only 1,450 men re-enlisted for service in
the Philippines in the present volunteer
army, Notwithstanding the liberal in-
ducements offered by the government to
that end, including travel pay allow
ance to the amount of 800 to each
man who re-enlisted. The plans of the
war department for bringing home the

The marvellous improvement after a

CUBAN ELECTIONS.
NATroNAl,srs WIN IN HAVANA
Apparently Little Interest Taken and
small Vote Cast-No Disorders Re-

! Havana, June l1.-General Alexandra
Rodriguez. Nationalist was yesterday
elected mayor of Havana. polling 13.-
01S votes against 6,u;i cast for Senor
Estrada Mora. Independent The total
vote fell about 4. 500 below the registra-
ton.
The National party elected its entire
ticket, eighteen councilmen. the treas
urer. one correctional judge and three
municipal judges. The other correc-
tional judgship fell TO an Independent
candidate, as did also the fourth inuni-
cipal judgeship. of the six other coun-
cilmen. four are Republicans and two
Nationalists. who ran Independently.
Reports from every part of the island
go to show that perfect order prevail
ed at the polls. Not \ shot was fired
nor was there any sign of disturbance
anywhere.
To an American observer of the elec-
ton here it seemed as if the people re-
garded the whole matter with absolute
indiG erence- There was not even q
crowd in waiting 10 hear the result de-
clared Not cheer was raised. nor
were there any of the ordinary indica-
tons of election excitement. although
a demonstration in honor Of the sue
ceSsful candidate will take place to-
night.
The victory of the Natiopalists is
chiefly due to the fact that they Were
first in the field. and had the benefit
of well disciplined organization. But
as they only claimed to have about 16.-
60 members, ii is obvious that 4 large
portion Of the voting population Of
Havana. perhaps 10000. was not at
tracted to the ranks of the party dur
ing the year and half prior to the
election. This is chiefly the result of
a lack of confidence in the party lead
erS.
Another fact demonstrated by the
election is the inability Of the Repub-
lican leaders. headed by Juan Gualber-
TO Gomez and Domingo Capote. with
their organization and paper La Dis
cussion, TO cut an important figure in
the politics of Havana The Repub-
lican leaders have failed all along the
line to justify their numerous preten-
sions-
Senor Mora contends that he polled
n majority of the voters in the better
class districts. and he attributes the
triumph of the Nationalists to fraud
and the Votes of the mob
Impartial judges attribute the out
come TO the hard work done by the Ma
tionalist leaders. General Rodriguez
declines TO outline his plans. preferring
to wait until the Havana charter has
been made public, with its definition
of his powers.
Although the cry of the Nationalists
was that the people should choose the
revolutionary leaders, because the work
of the revolution was not complete and
in order to prove to the intervening
government that the people of Cuba
considered it incomplete, nevertheless
many Of the leading councilmen elect
ed and two of those who were most
anxious TO secure the mayOralty are
not in any sense revolutionists. The
people also are asking where the pa
cificos are to come in.
