AMERICANS ARE ANXIOUS.
They Fear the Possible Effects o
the Orders of Gen. Wood.

SANTIAGO, Feb. 1S.-Gov. Gen. Wood 8
general orders specifying the preroga-
tives of military commanders and civil
governors are creating sensation here.
The press without exception, particularly
the violent local Cuban organs, comment
favoraibly upon them, saying they indi-
cate an honest intent on the part of the
intervening government to fulfill the
pledge to establish the independence Of
Cuba.
The Cubano Libero, which Is antagonis-
tic to the governor general says the
orders ARE merely a trick to continue the
American occupation The provision to
transfer the public works to the civil
governor on April 1 causes alarm among
many American employees, as they ex-
pect dismissal when the transfer Is made
The managers of American and foreign
business enterprises are also somewhat
concerned, as they have no confidence IN
the coming Cuban administration of pub
lie affairs The Spaniards, who control
the principal business undertakings here,
are particularly anxious. AS the public
works will for some time continue the
principal source Of business the Spaniards
expect little patronage under Cuban
administration. Civil Governor Satillo says
he will cooperate with the American au-
thorities, but Cuban politicians confident
ly expect recognition when the transfer Is
made.
The Cubano, discussing the labor ques-
ton, says today: 1T is too late now
for the purposes Of the present crop to
supply the labor deficiency by seeking
workmen in Europe. Puerto Rico, how
ever, must do something to remedy the
difficulty Many Puerto Ricans have left
their homes for Cuba. If there had been
an employment bureau here these people
could have been sent to various points

NEW CRIMES IN THE CALENDAR
Mans LawIess Ingenuity Is Giving tho
 Courts Addad Trouble.

Under the laws of the land as they exist at present the theft of lamp is larceny; 1t may be Roman lamp or 8 Greek lamp, an oil lamp or all electric lamp. Whether it constitutes grand
 larceny or petit larceny will in certain
 states of the union depend not upon It's age or newness, but upon its mar
 ket value. On the other hand there are a great number of modern crimes which could not have been committed n ancient days because the instru- ments for their perpetration did not exist. They are the outcome of mod ern civilization and they require new legislation. The tapping of a tele- graph wire is a modern form of high. way robbery. In the old days the method was to way1ay the courier on the road and to rob him of his purse or Of his message. The formula of the modern highwayman Is not Stand and deliver" but simply Deliver" And he may get a message from the light ming courier which may be wortA more to him than a well-filled purse. But there is nothing to be gained by indis- criminate tapping. It is some special message or. information that the thief Is looking for, possibly for It's effect on the stock market or on other busi. ness ventures, but the use of cipher codes renders the tapping of telegraph wires of little avail even in time of war, unless the code as we'll as the message has been stolen. For the tap- ping of power or light lines the mod ern highwayman comes in out of ;he rain. He can do his business better indoors by attacking the electric me- ter, confusing it's calculations and thus getting more current than he pays for. Such at least seems to be the imoiica- tian Of recent statutes.
