the publishers of newspaper pretty
hard, as the price of their product

CUBA MUST WAIT. x*
Official Statement as to the Protest
of Her independence.

The official statement given out by
Senator Platt, of Connecticut, Chair
man of the Committee on Relations
with Cuba, indicates clearly that Cuba
will not get independence for long
time.
Years must elapse before that gov
ornment is established, if ever, for
people of Cuba as children who must
be taught; a people who have had
very little opportunity to study the
principles, details, necessities or re-
sponsibilities of self-government.
1t is not believed in Washington
that Cuba will ever have absolute in
dependence. The Administration will
bring it about when the vote is taken
in Cuba for the election of members
OF it's first General Assembly, vote
will be registered simultaneously in
favor of annexation to the United
States. Should this fail, this Govern.
ment will have paved the way for a
practical protectorate over the island.
1t is even now being asserted that the
United States will dominate the for
eign policy of the Republic Of Cuba"
il it is ever established, and that no
treaties will be negotiated without
first having received the approval Of
this Government. Cuban treaties of
the future will not be permitted to
include the most favored nation
clause" which would permit other ma
tions to compete on an equal footing
with the United States. If there is
not annexation, the United States will
force a protectorate.

JULIAN RALPH's ATTACK.
He Declares the Beers Have No 1rav.
cry or Honor.

cry or f10uoT.
The most serious indictment of the
Beers methods Of warfare which has
just appeared in England comes from
Julian Ralph, the American war cor
respondent. in letter from Kimber-
ley, published in the London Daily
Mail. 1t is, in part. as follows:
''It is war steadily and stealthily
planned by the Queens Dutch SUBJ
jects and the Dutch republics for fully
twenty years. For between four and
six years they have been equipping
for it. They began purchasing arms
and planning defenses before the
Jamison raid. Let no one fool you
with the falsehood about that. Final.
ly, Kruger begged President Steyn to
declare war three weeks before Presi.
dent Steyn consented. Next rid your
mind of the notion that you are crush.
ing two farmer republics. There is
not farmer in the two countries, and
public in any way except misnaming.
"These people are herders Of cattle,
sheep and goats, like the Israelites
of old and the Aridis, Turks and Bal.
kan people of to-day. His (Boer's)
so-called farms are as nature made
them. merely reaches of veldt where.
on his cattle Craze. On each one he
has to put up home, but its sur.
roundings are almost invariably most
repellant and disorderly than any
houses l ever saw, except the cabins
of freed slaves in the United States.
Their camps and strongholds from
which we have routed them are the
filthiest places l have known men OF
any sort to live in, and have seen
red Indians, Chinese and Turkish
camps, and the camps of many sorts
of black men.
There has hardly been battle in
which the Beers have not abused
either the white flag or the Geneva
cross, or both.
"At many places they fired on our
ambulances. saw them do it at the
Modder river, and saw them fire on
our stretcher bearers in that battle
time and time again. When We enter.
ed Jacobsdal it looked like city OF
doctors. Every man in the street
wore the Red Cross bandage on his
arm. These were the men who had
just been shooting us from behind the
garden walls. There was nothing
novel or original about their seeking
the cowardly shelter of the doctors

EXODUS FROM CHICAGO.

Many Of its ForsmSst Citizens and
Corporations Going to New York.
The exodus Of wealthy Chicagoans
to New York continues at q rate which
promises to diminish rapidly the
ranks of the local 400" The past
two years have seen the departure of
q large number to make their homes
in the Eastern metropolis, and lately
they have gone at the rate of one a
week.
For instance, last week James B.
Breese, the broker, left to make
Gotham his residence. This week
Charles b. Mcdonald. the broker and
golf man. announced that he would
soon say good-by. Next week will see
the departure of Frederick X. Pulsi-
fer. one of the leading members of the
Board of Trade, to swell the list of ex-
Chicagoans in the East. One of Chi
cagO's best corporation lawyers will
follow him in the early summer.
Samuel NJ. Nickerson, late Presi-
dent of the First National Bank, has
bought home in New York, as has
also his son, Roland, popular young
clubman. H. H. Porter, President of
the Chicago and Eastern Illinois Rail-
way. shook the Chicago dust from his
shoes about two years ago and went
to New York. He gave as his reason
the excessive taxation and persecu-
tion against corporations.
It Is estimated that altogether the
city. by these and other removals of
persons and corporations, has lost
several million dollars.
