For some years the cases OF Ameri-
cans arrested in Mexico upon technical
charges have given the Department OF
State considerable work to do, as it is
the inyariable practice OF this govern
ment to demand that Americans so ar
rested shall be given fair trial. Many
of those arrested have been employees
Of the Mexican Central Railway, as
under Mexican law every railway en-
ploye upon train which by reason OF
accident kills person is technically
guilty of murder. A paroled American
prisoner recently in Washington said
there were fifty odd Americans in jail
at the City OF Mexico awaiting trial for
one thing or another and that they were
badly treated and poorly fed; also that
Americans had been imprisoned under
ground, in the salt mines, for four years.
While the opinion is expressed at the
Department of State that the above
statement was an exaggeration, both as
to the number of Americans imprisoned
in Mexico and their treatment, it is adj,
mitted that Americans are constantly
being made the victims Of Mexican la"
and that all this Government can DO Is
to demand fair trial for them. An
official OF the Department of State sad:
Where is no justice in the law under
which American railroad employees are
arrested in Mexico, and We have no
power to change the law, nor can we ask
the Mexican Government to repeal 1T,
Even as it is, conditions have greatly
improved, for not long ago it was the
custom in Mexico to regard all Ameri-
cans as Mexican citizens unless they
were registered at the American con-
sula.e. This custom has been abolished.
and perhaps, in the course Of tlmc, we
may see new order of things regard
ing the treatment of railway employees.
Undou bledly there have been numerous
cases where Americans have been
thrown into all and kept there for an
unreasonable time, Undoubtedly, too,
the prisons have been filthy and mean,
and the prisoners made to suffer undue
hardships. All that we can do. how
ever, when case is called to our atten'
ton is to ask the Mexican Government
to give the accused fair and speedy
trial, and We have done this in every
instance. The representations to the
Mexican Government have been received
in good spirit, and in many cases have
been effective. Very frequently, where
a sentenced prisoner had not served a
sufficient time to entitle him to par
don under the Mexican law, he has been
given his liberty in an informal manner,
which is more than could be done in
this country" The same official called
attention to the fact that Mexico was
constantly complaining about arrests of
Mexlcans on our side Of the border and
our insisting upon their being tried un-
der our laws, just as they do on their
side.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
FROM OUR REGULAR CORRESPONDENT.
WASHINGTON, APRIL 22D. 1901.

One CT the trees planted today, In the
grounds of the Department OF Agricul-
ture, during the official observance OF
Arbor day-a sturdy oak-was named
Jeremiah NJ. Rusk, in honor of the for
mer Secretary of Agriculture. Secre-
tary Wilson delivered an address strong
" favorlng more general observance
of Arbor day.
Aguinaldo's proclamation, manifesto
address, or whatever you choose to call
the paper he has signed and issued &C
knowledgng American sovereignty and
calling upon all Filipinos to do the
same, has not created much talk IN
Washington. A notable feature of the
comment made upon it By prominent of
fcials is that, instead of saylngwhat they
think its effect will be, they almost in
variably say "Gen. Macarthur thinks"
etc. The fact of the matter is, the big
ger fishes prefer to wait and see what
the effect will be to attempting to pro-
phesy. So many predictions have been
made about things over there that fail
to square with results.
Gen. Leonard Wood, military COVER
nor of Cuba, lost no time in calling at
the White House after he arrived in
Washington. He came ahead of the
committee from the Cuban Constitu-
tional Convention by the express order
of the President, who wished to have a
talk with him before receiving the Gu
bans. The President will near what
the Cubans have to say, provided they
take the hint given them to boil down
their statements, rs time is pushing and
this is the Presidents last week in
Washington for a month and half,
and he will say something to them,
which can be condensed into about this:
You have been offered fair conditions,
which cannot be changed in the slight
est particular; you are free to accept
them and have your own government
or to reject them and have US continue
TO govern you.
Conditions in Cuba, as pictured by
Mr.. T. F. Moerlin, of Havana, who is
now in Washington, are far from being
rose colored. He said: NEverything is
getting dull in Hayana. The tourist
season is about over and very few Amer
leans outside Of the government service
are left. The large hotels look like
banquet halls deserted. Then the po-
ltical conditions are 80 uncertain thai
all business is dull. The sugar grind
ing will be finished by May lst, which
will add quite number to the unem-
ploycd. Idleness breeds discomfort, and
fear there will be trouble back in the
interior. Bandits are operating in sew
eral places and are giving the rural pc
lice something to do. One band wa'
caught last week, and when their masks
were removed two Of them proved to bt
rural policemen. The constitutional
Convention has refused to adopt the
Platt amendment, and that august body
of Cnbans are now only drawing $40 &
day."
