THE DRIFT IN CUBA.
MORE RADICALS CONVERTED TO AC-
CEPTANCE OF THE PLATT
AMENDMENT
IBY CABLE TO THE TRIBUNE.l
Copyright: 1901: BY The New-York Tribune. J


Havana. May 11.-Former Radical delegates
who opposed acceptance of the Platt amendment
continue to announce their conversion to 1t. The
latest convert is Jose Gomez Civil Governor Of
Havana Province. He was one OF its most vio-
lent opponents but now urges immediate ac-
ceptance. He justifes the clause giving naval
stations 10 the United States on geographical
grounds. and says that economic conditions also
demand close relations. He attributes his change
OF opinion to information Of the understanding
and purposes of the American Executive which
was given 20 the committee that visited Wash
ington.
Following the action of General Ruiz Rivera
In writing from Honduras urging the delegates
10 accept American requirements and proceed
with the establishment OF Cuban government.
General Gomez's conversion has further weak
ened the radicals. They are. however. planning
dilatory tactics To keep the convention from an
early decision. The supporters Of the amend
ment are seeking TO organize to secure
continuous sessions beginning on Monday and
exhaust the discussion before the end OF the
week. The chief embarrassment continues 10
be lack OF united action by the commercial in
fuences. which want TO insure reciprocity.
Some Of the sugar planters and merchants still
urge the convention 10 take final action till
December. They promise 20 support the dele
gates who indorse this policy The -NgFehaRts
Union has issued an address asisinG co-opeEatlon
in this economic movement, but II does not
counsel the convention TO delay.
The publication of the full report Of the COM
nnittee which visited Washington has had a good
effect in influencing public opinion in favor Of
the convention accepting the amendment. Com
ment is caused by a paragraph in the supple
mentary report in which Chairman Capote and
his associates say that they left Washington
with the impression that the President was
strongly supported in HIS policy regarding Cuba.
which seemed TO be considered by the generality
Of the American people as the American national
policy in whatever related TO Cuban problems.

AN Anoka dispatch to the Pioneer
Press says that "A lum herman who is a
good authority, states that the Indians
on the Mile Laos reservation are much
more sickly than they were twenty
years ago. He says they are dying
rapidly, and in his opinion the preva-
lent disease is tuberculosis, brought on
by the poor food they subsist on for
months at a time, and unsanitary liv-
ing. Practically, every Indian, old or
young, is suffering from a persistent,
hacking cough" From present appear
ances, however, it will take a long
time for that hacking cough to play
out the Mile Laos Indians. They will
be hacking there in the woods for some
time to come.

THE St. Paul Dispatch makes light
OF the bill introduced in congress by
Representative Grosvenor of Ohio to
COMPEL clothing manufacturers to tag
all cloth, showing whether it is all
wool, or part wool or cotton or shoddy.
This bill is the result of the united ef-
fort on the part of the wool growers
associations throughout the country,
as we'll as the National Live Stock asso-
citation which represents the interests
OF practically all the live stock inter-
ests of the country. It is claimed that
the manufacturers by using so much
shoddy in the manufacture of wooden
goods work great injury to the wool
producing interests of the country.
1t is further claimed that there is
imported from South America quail
ity of cotton that is used in the manu-.
facture of wooden goods that cannot be
detected from wool, as the fibre sc
much resembles the wool fibre. The
wool growers have no objection to the
manufacturers mixing all they wish
but they do object to their using LOT
Of; shoddy in wooden cloth and selling
the cloth for wool. There is no ques
ton but what the mixture of cotton
with wool in certain proportions makes
a very good piece of cloth for all those
who do not want the pure wool, but or
the other hand the markets are flooded
with lot of cheap shoddy clothing
that the unsuspecting buyer thinks is
all wool, and his shoddy clothes are
much more expensive than sall-woo
clothes would be in the long run. The
bill is not class legislation nor is it al
all unreasonable, as the public have
the right to know what they are buy
ing, and the demand of the wool pro-
ducing interests of the country thai
the manufacturers mark their goods
wool or shoddy or cotton, and that al
goods be inspected, is one that con
,gress should recognize $780,. >..x,

Securities company and the events

have been given to the public, and it
would indicate that Mr.. Hill has made
an open and frank explanation OF the
matter. Whatever construction the
public may place on Mr.. Hills state
ment it would certainly appear that he
courts the fullest investigation. This
much must be conceded, that he would
have nothing to gain by misrepresent-
ing facts at the present time. It would
seem that judgment on Mr.. Hill should

NOTWITHSTANDING the high price
of corn, which is now worth so much
that the average cattle feeder thinks
that there is no profit in fattening a
ssteer on corn at IS cents and better, a
prominent cattle feeder of Minnesota
has been making few inquiries and
has come to the conclusion that with
corn at IS cents there is fair profit in
taking a 1O00-pound steer at 49, 25 or 81
and feeding it 100 or 200 days to the
maturing point. He figures that the
1925 steer will fatten in 200 days on Is

THE UNION is pleased to know that
its anniversary number last week was
so well appreciated by it's readers and
the public in general. The edition
met with a hearty reception and went

at the present time about exhausted,
only few copies being left. The bust
ness men of Princeton took hold and
have sent the UNION broadcast over
the country, while those interested in
selling land in this section are sending
out the UNION to parties who are look
ing for the best snaps in land in the
country and which are to be found in
this section. The edition was issued in
more or less of a hurry, and had to be
sandwiched in with the regular work
on the UNION, and entailed consider
able extra labor. While lacking in
some minor details, the main features
of the paper will make it a good adver-
tisement for Princeton and the sur
rounding country. There was not a
line OF auxiliary matter in the whole
edition which was planned, executed
and issued from the UNION office.
