The Nationals Having Trouble in
Fulfilling Their Promises

HAVANA, July 7.-The opponents Of the
National party claim that that organization
will not be able to give more than 10 per
cent OF the positions it promised to its sup
porters prior TO the elections. owing 10 the
relative smallness of the number OF Offices
at its disposal. Chief of Police Cardenas
says that clamor is being raised for his dis
missal, as the Nationals desire TO get con-
rol OF the police, some OF the eolored lead
ers OF the party having promised positions
on the police force to negroes. Hitherto
negroes have not been permitted to serve
as policemen.
Other promises were also made. such as
arranging an eight-hOur day for wharf la
borers, with an advance in wages. As the
wharves are not administered by the mu-
nicipailty, this promise cannot be fulfilled
II is possible that a keen reaction will re-
suit against the party The members of

YARN sPINNERs' PROBLEM.
Southern Committee Discusses How

10 Do Away With NiddIemen.
PHILADELPHIA. July That inde-
pendent selling agencies fer the disposi-
tion Of cotton yarn will be established in
the near future has been agreed upon by
the committee Of the Southern Cotton
Spinners' Association. now meeting ic this
city. These agencies will be located in
Philadelphia New York. ant Boston. and
through them the cotton growers and yarn
manufacturers OF the South Will sell their
product direct to the cloth manufacturer.
thus saving a great margin now paid to
commission men When the committee
makes Hs report to the general ssso-
citation at Charlotte. y. c.. the time when
these agencies in the North viii be open
ed VIII be decided.
The problem that the committeeman dis
cussed yesterday al the Lafayette where
the sessions are being held, was how TO get
away from the commission men. Many OF
these brokers are heavy stockholders in the
Southern mills and control the output
With the general prosperity that the cOuu-
try has enjoyed for the last four years,
the financial independence Of the mill own
ers has increased. and il is believed that
they viii be able 10 cut loose from the
middlemen entirely and dictate the terms
upon which their yarn is TO be sold. This
Will have the effect probably Of reducing
the cost Of the finished cloth t. the retail
buyer
Several heavy brokers Of Philadelphia
and New York appeared before the com
mittee and expressed their views
upon the contemplated change New Eng
land mill owners also gave the Southern
ers the benefit Of their experience The
Northern spinners dispose OF their yarn
upon a different basis than the Southern
operators. a plan that nets them a greater
profit and frees them from the thralldom
of middlemen. Secretary Frank B. His
said that the practicability of the different
methods suggested to the committee would
be considered and plan evolved for pre-
sentatiyn to the general association.
Arnold B. Sanford. of Boston, President
OF the American Cotton Yarn Exchange,
and a large operator. detailed the method
of the Northern dealers for the delectat.on
Of the committeeman. Because of his
prominence in the yarn market and the
success attendant upon his ventures the
Southerners place great value upon the
suggestions made by Mr.. Sanford He ia
vors the selling direct Of the yarn to mills
and dispensing with the middlemaa's ser
vices. This afternoon the majority of the
visitors will go TO Atlantic City to stay
over Sunday before returning South.

And standing in silence unbroken,

tered mot much chance in that time
the Martha has gone to the bottom.
Four or five, there might be hope"
He began to wonder how he could
make the water last four or five days
instead Of two. The pain in his head
was intense. \ few hours and he must
give up to the fever. He knew, too,
that he had no chance of recovery.
He knew that Harry would give him

Two days. What were two days?
He would only be shortening his broth
er's life so much by living them. All,
what was the use?
A few minutes later pistol shot
rang out amid the sound of breaking
waves and the silence of the sands, and
Tom Dudley sank with moan upon
the beach.
The forced expression of cheerful
ness went out of Harry's face as his
brother left the hut. and he fell back
exhausted upon the bed.

self; only two days for both, but
were there but one to drink, four or
maybe five days with care. The Mar

be here in that time. But in two days
the owners will hardly have had time
to learn of her loss and send out an

He put some of the stuff on the blade

Then he staggered back again to the
