Military Governor Wood Expects Il
BE Able to Hand 1t over to the
Cubans by Next May.

Washington, Sept. 29.-Gen. Leon,
ard Wood, military governor of Cuba
left here Sunday night by way of Tam
pa for Havana. The expectation of
Gen. Wood is that he will be able to
complete arrangements by which the
conduct of affairs in the island can be
handed over to the Cubans by May l.
The electoral law is satisfactory to
the administration provided some
notifications are made.
As a result of his talk with the Off
Gals here Gen. Wood expressed the
opinion that there will be no change
in the attitude of the administration
towards the Cubans, but that the pol
icy inaugurated by Mr.. Mckinley will
be continued by his successor.

RE-COMMISSIONED.
The United States Ambassadors
Abroad May BE Supplied With
New Credentials.

Washington, Sept. 21.-While it has
not decided the question definitely,
the state department. is inclined to
believe that all of the United States
ambassadors abroad must be supplied
with new credentials. This may be
true also of the ambassadors from
foreign potentates and republics to
Washington. This belief is based up
on the fact that the ambassador rep
resents the person of the sovereign
or president. This is not true of
the ministers, who, therefore, prob.
ably will not be required to be r>-
commissioned. In the case of a few:
of the United States ministers who
had not presented their credentials at
the time of President McKinley's de-
mise, new commissions will be re-
quircd.

SILENT TELEGRAPH.
At 2s3O p. m. Thursday Every Instru-

for Five Minutes.

Chicago, Sept. 2O-One of the fea-
lures absolutely unique in history
characterized the Mckinley obsequies.
1t was the silencing of the telegraph.
Never before since electricity was
first put to use as a means of COM
munication from city to city and
from country to country has there
taken place, it is said. anything
paralleling even in a small way what
was done Thursday afternoon on a
scale that was gigantic. Upon or
ders from the officials of the different
telegraph companies or upon the COM
mon impulse of the operators where
instructions were not received, the
entire telegraph system of the United
States was suddenly hushed for five
minutes at $3.50 p. M, the hour set
for lowering the presidents body
into the grave in Canton. At that
moment on all the huge network
of wires from the Atlantic to the
Pacific not a "sounder'' in the land
gave a single tick, and the great
ocean cables were as pulseless as the
corpse of the late chief magistrate
himself. More than once prior to
Thursday thousands of miles of rail.
way and vast armies of men, indus
trial or military, have passed as trib-
ute to the dead, but the cessation
of the telegraph for such a cause
or, indeed, for any reason, is without
precedent in the worlds records. 1t
is estimated that fully 100000 tel
egraph operators thus simultaneous
ly paid homage to the memory of
Mckinley. The total number of miles
of wires affected was upwards of a
million and a quarter.

HISFIRST ACT
Roosevelt Signed Brig. Gen. James
M. Bell's Commission.
President Roosevelt DisdHins a Carr
riage and Walks BrisISly and
Alone From Executive Man
sion to Sisters Home.

Washington, Sept. 21.-The new
president held a cabinet meeting FRI
day after returning from Canton. He
was driven from the depot direct to
the white house.
The most important topic discussed
Ky the cabinet was the electoral law
formed by the Cuban constitutional
convention, of which, it is understood,
The presidents advisers expressed
their approval.
The first official act performed by
the new president was the signing
OF the commission of Brig. Gen. JAS.
NJ. Bell. In elevating Col. Bell to
the grade of brigadier general Pres
ident Roosevelt gives the first proof
of his announced intention TO carry
out the wishes of his predecessor.
About 1920 o'clock, shortly after
the conclusion of the cabinet meeting,
President Roosevelt left the white
house to go to the residence of his
sister, the wife of Commander COwles,
of the navy, for luncheon.
Disdaining a carriage, he walked
swiftly and alone. No one had known
when he would leave his office, and as
ne passed brisllly out of the grounds
of the executive mansion he attracted
little attention, scarcely anybody
recognizing him. He crossed Penn
sylvania avenue into Lafayette square
and thence up Sixteenth street to his
destination. In the course of an
hour and half he returned to the
white house, still alone, and still
walking.
Secretary Cortelyou put an end to
the rumors that President Roosevelt
would live in some residence re-
moved from the white house. "Jt
Will be a pinch to accommodate the
whole family here" he said, ''but
President Harrison's family was about
as large. and they managed to live
here fairly comfortable. The presi-
dent will probably sleep under The
white house roof for the first time
next Monday night. Mrs. Roosevelt
and the children will probably move
in next Wednesday"

TIE CAR IN FRANCE.
Gen. De Boisdenre, Formerly Chief
of the French staff. Received
by Emperor NichOlns.

Compiegne, Sept. 21.-Two inter-
esting incidents of the day were the
reception of Emperor Nicholas Of
Gen. De Boisdeffre, former chief OF
the French staff, and the baptism of
the infant son of the Count de Monte
bello, French ambassador in Russia.
De Boisdeffre was chief of the French
staff during the previous visit OF the
ear and gained the friendship of the
father of Nicholas while French am
bassador in St. Petersburg.
Notwithstanding this explanation,
the nationalists, who only remember
the part Gen De Boisedeffre played
in the Dreyfus affair, eXult in his
reception by the car as a reflection
upon the government. declaring that
it is connected with dissatisfaction
in the army with Gen. Andres con-
duct as minister of war. This, how
ever, is absolutely untrue.
The baptism of the son of the
count of MontebelIo took place in the
apartments of the car after his re-
turn from the drive. His majesty
had promised to act as godfather.
The car expressed an intention to
act personally, and the rite of bap-
tism was, therefore, performed by
the car Only the car and czarina
and members of the family of the
count were present. The child was
christened Nicholas after the car,
who said the credo in the Russian
tongue.

STILL HOLDS HER own.
No Material Change in the Condi-
ton of Mrs. Mckinley.
1t is Estimated That 10000 People
Visited the Resting Place of
the Late President in
West Lawn Sunday.

Canton, O., Sept. 23.-Dr. 6ixey said
Sunday evening that there has been
no material change in the condition
OF Mrs. Mckinley and that she is
doing as well as could be expected.
She went out for two hours Sunday
and still seems to be holding her own.
Sundays drives were taken in the
family carriage, an open surrey
which the president had sent on from
Washington for use during the sum-
Bler vacation, and DIR. RiXey and Mrs.
c. Barber accompanied Mrs. McKin-
ley. The first trip was to the Gem
etery Sunday morning, and was
taken at the request of Mrs. McKin-
ley. A much longer drive was taken
during the afternoon at the sugges-
ton of he doctor, who feels that his
patient is benefited by all the out
door life she can stand and can be
induced to take. The outings have
always had a tendency to produce
sleep and rest and to increase the
appetite, and now have that effect
to a degree at least. 1t is under
stood that Mrs. Mckinley is securing
fairly good rest in the midst of her
sorrow and grief.
There was placed on the Mckinley
casket Sunday by Judge VIM. r. Day
large floral wreath for the EN-.
peror OF Russia. Judge Day received
a telegram from Charge DeWollante,
of the Russian embassy at Washing
ton, requesting him to have this
wreath placed on the caslIet of the
