louisville, Ky, Nov. 27.--Lieut-Com-
mander Lucien A. Young, U.s.N. cap
tain OF the port ut Havana, Is In LOUIS
Vile en- route to Washington for q BRIEF
stay.
Speaking about Cuba, Lieut.. Young
said:
Since the military occupation OF
Cuba there has been disposition on
the part of the island officials to comply
with the Teller resolution. and In so
doing there has been no modification
OF the laws Of the island. and the eco
nomical question has never been dis
cussed. The result Is that the affairs
Of Cuba are in the hands Of a lot Of
political and professional reyolutionists
who have nothing to lose and every
thing to gain,
Sugar is being sold at $S.1Sh on the
docks. when II cannot be raised In the
interior for less than 1870. Not 10
per cent OF last years tobacco crop
has been sold. A committee has been
sent TO the United States 10 ask for
reciprocity which means a stepping
stone to annexation, Why not annex
the island and be done with Il? Every
move means that ultimate result
IL the United States should annex
cuba, with free introduction of pro-
duets and with the development Of 92
per cent OF the uncultlyated land we
could control products for which we
now ask the European countries and
ask no favors Of them.
we are to control the isthmlan can
al, ana cuba Is the absolute defense
TO the commerce of the Caribbean sea,
the Gulf OF Mexico and the eastern APP
pr0aches TO the canal and should be
the military base for the United states.
Cuba can give TO the United States
put one concession and that should be
annexation, for we cannot demand prl-
Vileges as a foreign power of fortify-
ing the port OF call without explain
atoms and arrangements Further
more we have spent $700000,000 in lib
Grating Cuba, but the Cubans do not
seem satisfied and ask us TO give them
independent government and the Teller
resolution. Then they want us to get
out OF the Island and sacrifice s26, 00O,-
oOo which Is being collected in duty
from imports. The only salvation for
cuba Is absolute acquiescence TO the
mandates Of the United States. In
my opinion they should be given home
RUE under q governor appointed by
tne United States with power to veto
any act that they may make, subject
Oh course to the approval of Congress"

The climax was reached when he de-
scribed how he had killed his first
gorilla, a monstrous animal, with a
chest four feet broad and weighing about
four hundred pounds. So vivid and dra-
matte was the recital that one could see
the gigantic. man-like animal standing by
large, heavily ladened fruit tree, tearing
off the limbs and eating the fruit hanging
upon them; see him stop suddenly and give
roar like the roll Of thunder on perceiving
the presence of Du Chaillu, then, beating
his powerful hanks upon his broad and
hairy chest, he slowly advanced with q
rolling, side-to-side motion, only to be shot
dead, falling face downward, with arms
outstretched. at a distance of about ten
feet from the man who shot him. The
story was greeted with great applause.
Leaving Africa. he carried his hearers to
the land of the midnight sun, and told
them many interesting facts about Nor
way and Sweden. After having held the
undivided attention of his hearers for over
an hour, he closed. shaking hands with all
his young friends as they passed out, and
receiving with much pleasure the grateful
thanks of all who had heard him. Espe-
cially was he pleased by the action of
many of the children, who ran after him
on the street. telling him Of their great
pleasure and wishing him success on his
proposed journey to Russia.
He lectured at the Central High School

COUNTERFEIT MONEY.
Thousands of Dollars Destroyed by g.
Treasury Committee.

Thousands of Dollars Destroyed by q
Treasury Committee.
A committee appointed by Secretary Gage
has been engaged in destroying thousands
of dollars of counterfeit money, counterfeit
outfits. etc. The committee in charge of
this destruction was appointed to first make
a careful inventory of the property in the
hands of the secret service, and later to
dispose of 1t in a manner that would leave
no doubt of its disappearance. 1t has been
two years since the destr Iction Of accumu-
lated counterfeit property was had and the
work this time is on a rather extensive
scale. The committee has been at work
for several weeks. carefully asserting and
counting the limitations of United States
notes and of cons. The list that Is made
must correspond with the secret service
records as to the amount on hand A re-
port will be made to Secretary Gage within
a few days. 1t will give the amounts de-
stroyed and full details of the work
The counterfeit paper money is destroyed
by machines just like redeemed notes The
advertising matter in imitation of obliga-
tions of Uncle Sam Is destroyed in the
treasury furnaces. while the coin Is taken
to melting plant, either at some govern
ment or private institution, and thoroughly
destroyed.
Practically all the counterfeit coin manu-
factured contains little silver or gold, and
it is not worth while trying to save the
silver when the metal is melted. The per-
centage is too small to bother with. When
coins are discovered having considerable
silver or gold they are melted in the treas
ury. the valuable metals taken out and the
money turned into the treasury.
The plaster of paris molds. the dies,
Photographic outfits and the various para
phe-7alias used are all destroyed by fire.
The accumulation is that captured at diff
ferent times by secret service agents and
held until the trials OF the counterfeiters
were had.
