FAIR FIELD AND NO FAVOR.
American officials to Remain Neutral
in Cuban Ejcctions.


Secretary Root yest erday wrote to
| EIigio Bonachea, Of the National Conven-
tion Of Cuba. declaring that the Ameri-
can officials have no intention of favor
ing any of the Cuban candidates for the
! Presidency. His letter is as follows:
Il have the honor to acknowledge the
receipt of your despatch of November 26,
saying
The National Convention of Havana,
which has proclaimed General Maso
candidate for the Presidency of the fu-
ture Republic of Cuba. respectfully asks
YOU to recommend to the representatives
of the intervening Government the strict
est imparuality in the electoral contest
which is now taking place
The representatives of the Intervening
Government in Cuba are already aware
that their duty requires them not merely
to be strictly impartial in the electoral
contest in Cuba, but to refrain from in
tcrfering in any manner with the free tx
preston of the wishes of the Cuban peO-
ple at the polls. They nave not violated
this rule in the past and viii not in the
future They have nothing 10 do with the
electoral contest except 10 enforce she
electoral law prescribed 10y the Constitu-
tional Convention and promulgated by the
Military Governor on the l4th Of October
last. This will be done impartially and Ell
fcctively.
1T Is quite unnecessary to assume that
the officers of this Government will be
less faithful to their duty hereafter than
they have been in the past, or to recon-
mend or direct that they shall perform a
duty which they are already performing.

OverdraSyn for Target Prac-
tice and ArmOr Plate.

More than one hundred thousand dol
lars of this years appropriation for naval
ordnance. above the estimated allowance,
has gone up in the smoke Of target prac-
tice Because of this heavy oyerdrait it
will be necessary for tie time being to
curtail expenditures.
Gunmakers BEING Laid or.
The sunmakors at the navy yards. par
ticularly those at the Washington yard,
will be furloughed. Congress will also be
asked 10 come TO the relief OF the ord
nance Bureau by making up the present
lack OF funds with an appropriation IN
the general deficiency bill
When Rear Admiral Higginson took
command Of the North Atlantic Squadron
some months ago he found that the OFF,
GERS and men we're not up to the standard
of efficiency in targe. practice. Conse-
quently, with the Kearsarge, the Ken
tuckv. and the Alabama, he went at work
and inaugurated plan OF target practice

One Of these ships has within few
months exhausted it is said, three years

gets. The fields about Newport have dur
ing the past summer blazed with burning
powder, and the work has kept up almost
constantly. The practice has been sue
cessful so far as making the gunners ex-
pert marksmen is concerned but 1t has
cost far in excess of what the Navy De-
partInent figured upon in its estimate.

in this work the Department has ap-
pointed Lieut. A. P Niblack as inspector
of target practice. with instructions TO
prevent further deficiencies.
Excess Armor Plate Delivery.
Another cause which has led to the
shortage of funds in the Ordnance Bureau
is the fact that the contractors have de-
livered more armor plate than was ex-
pected. The appropriation fer armor
plate and ordnance supplise was $1,000,
eco The delivery OF a certain amount
of plate was figured upon in this ap-
preparation. The steel men have exceeded
this estimate. As there are a large num-
ber of ships under process of construction
the deliveries have been accepted, as it
will soon be needed
Some other work has also teen done
which was net calculated upon wnen the
appropriation was made. All of this. how
ever, has been authorized by Congress. 1t
has gone on so rapidly. however that the
bureau now finds itself in a position
where its funds viii be exhausted long
before the end of the fiscal year, and
before another appropriation is available.
unless something is done. Only five
months of the year have passed and it is
said that the fund is more than half ex-
hausted
There will be a retrenchment and work
men Will be furloughed, and Congress- will
be asked for an additional appropriation.

JUDGE TAFT's RETURN.
Expected 10 Leave MnniIn on the
First Transport.

No additional advices were received at
the War Department from Manila yester-
day in regard to the condition Of Judge
william Taft. Governor of the Philip
pines. The War Department now expects
Governor Taft to leave Manila on the
first returning transport. This will prob
ably be within few days.
As stated several days ago. Governor
Taft's return is due entirely to his poor
physical condition, resulting from an op-
Grafton which caused his confinement in
doors for several weeks. Owing to the
climate Of Manila his recovery is not as
rapid as it might be in a cooler country,
and, acting upon the suggestion Of Secre-
tary Root, Judge Taft viii return to the
