was high and much lumber piled near,

TAXES IN CUBA.
Con. Wood Is StrcnuousIy Urged to
Make Changes Relative to the
Sugar Industry.

Havana, March 26.--GOv. Gen. Wood
has recently had interviews with per-
sons of influence who Lave strenu-
uously urged the taxation of valua-
bic properties, rather than on each
bag of sugar, as it is manufactured.
Those who hold this view contend
that under the present system imped-
iments are throw in the way OF pro-
duction.
They point out that many valuable
estates have been lying idle and un-
productive for years, some even hav-
ing complete sugar plants. The own
ers. who are rich men, are living IN
Paris. Madrid and other European
cities, quite untaxed for their prop
erty in Cuba.
Gen. Wood feels that if these prop
critics are taxed their owners Will
he forced either to sell or to make
them productive.
