For some reason or other, in total
defiance Of campaign-year assertions,
trade is not following the flag into
Cuba, though American occupation
there is probablya permanent thing.
The exports of cotton goods from
the United States in 1900 decreased
from $I,337,74I the previous year
to $42o,I42, while Great Britain's
exports of cotton cloths rose in the
same time from $2,9o5,3o7 to
$2,I92,o25. Germany, Austria,
France and other European coun-
tries likewise increased their exports
to Cuba, though they do not own a
foot of Cuban soil. They get the
trade, and this is doubtless quite as
satisfactory to nations with ian
eye to business. This matter of
trade and the flag has done service
in one or two elections, but will
hardly furnish capital for another
campaign.
The first days of the great strike
brings little advantage to the Unit
ed States Steel corporation. The
point at issue in the struggle with
the Amalgamated association is not
question of wages, or OF hours OF
labor, as the Steel trust has fully
recognized the union and conceded
the scale. The question is simply
the unionlzing of a fewl mills out
of the many operated by the trust.
The Amalgamated association, the
aggresSor III the struggle, demands
the control of every mill, and here
the Steel corporation asserts its
right to run its own business. A
fight over wages would be more of
a matter of life and death to the
thousands of people concerned, but
this great strike with all the sacrifice
it involves seems less likely to draw
sympathy and cooperation from
the general public, which is itself
vitality interested. The trust is like
ly to win, but whichever way the
struggle turns it will only further
embitter and divide the forces now
in opposition.

disturbed from their slumbers and

and with gladness they appear to
make the day doubly joyous with

Uncle sam and Cuba.

Havana, April l5.-At the opening of
the secret session of the constitutional CON
vention Senior Nunez asked that the con-
vention either reject or accept the Platt
amendment, as the resolution adopted the
day before was not formal declaration
and was misleading.
This was opposed by the radicals, who
have always avoided taking a decided
stand. The conservatives were pleased at
the point and as a split was threatened
among the radicals a compromise was Of
fered and agreed to, by the terms of which
a resolution was adopted by which the
convention would not express itself either
for or against the amendment and that a
committee be sent to Washington to secure
the best possible agreement with the presi.
dent. This committee will not be author
lied to settle definitely the question of the
relations between the United States and
Cuba, but will report back to the conven-
ton.

Revive Eight Hour Law.

Washington, April l5.-The assistant at
torney general for the postofiice depart
ment has ruled that the amendment at
tached to the current appropriation act,
limiting the hours of work for letter car
riers throughout the country to As hours
week, expires with the act itself on June
Both next. After that date, therefore, the
postofiice department will reenact the rules
OF the eight hour law of March "a, 1888
The amendment at the time of its con-
sideration in congress was fought by the
association of letter carriers and the de-
partment found it expensive to enforce it.
The eight hour law specifically provides
for eight hours a day, while the amend
ment allowed the average OF this amount
of work so as to keep within the limit Of
4s hours in the six days of labor.
