THE POLITICAL SITUATION In CUBA
Will Call on President McKinIey
and Secretary Root.
G. r A T E Full TO AMERICA

NEW YORK, July 2.-General Maximo
Gomez gave out the following statement
today:
In response to the request of the press
for me to make q statement in regard to
Cuba, all have to say is that the accep-
tance of the Plat amendment by the Gu
ban constitutional convention has already
defined the political situation of Cuba, and
as the Cubans are all anxious to establish
self-government they are all working to-
ward this end There is not one who does
not desire to see the flag float free, flag
which represents so much suffering and
so many sacrifices for freedoms sake. The
whole world has known this for many
years.
THE sole object of my visit has been nv
great desire to embrace my old, true and
loyal friend, Mr.. Tomas Estrada Palma.
whom L have not been able to see since
peace was established, and, of course to
pay a visit to President Mckinley, to
whom we Cubans owe so much, and also
to pay my respects to Secretary Root
This is not my first visit to this city,
of which l have many pleasant and also
sad recollections, for l have once silently
and unknown trod the thoroughfares of
free country with the only ardent hope of
helping to break the chains that enslaved
Cuba. Today everything is changed. On
again setting foot in this free land l feel
happy, for in every American 1 see
friend, who, having shed his blood side by
side with us for freedom, has earned our
eternal gratitude and established the mu-
tual obligation between the two peoples to
maintain the peace and independence of the
Island of Cuba.
"(Signe0 NJ GOMEZ"
General Gomez will in all probability re-
turn to this city from Washington tomor-
row, and will remain here until Saturday,
when he will sail for Cuba

TRAGEDY IN ICE CREAM P,RLoR.
Young Man Shot While Trying TO Re-
cover Woman's Umbrella

CHICAGO, July while attempting to
recover an umbrella and purse belonging
to a young woman, who was a stranger to
him, William ]. Harris was shot and fatally
wounded last night by Michaelo Varlos a
Greek. AS his victim fell to the floor Var
los dropped his revolver and fed. pursued
by a number of men who had seen the
shooting. He has not been captured.
The affray occurred in an ice cream
parlor, in which Narlos is a waiter. Half
all hour before the shooting Varlos had
quarreled with q woman and her escort,
who had entered the place. A fight fol-
lowed between the men, during which Var
los was struck over the head with an UNI
brella by the woman. She then ran out of
the door, leaving the umbrella and her
purse behind.
Just outside the door she met Harris
who inquired the cause of her excitement
She told him and he offered to return and
secure the umbrella and the purse. Enter
ing the store he demanded the return of
the woman's property. Varlos told him to
step to the rear Of the store and he would
hand him the articles. The Greek then
walked behind counter and, drawing q
revolver from a drawer, deliberately fired
Il three times at Harris. Two bullets en-
tered the breast and one the abdomen
Harris is from Pirtsburg, Pa.

ACTIVITY AT THE NAVY YARDS.
Nearly SS.0O0.0O0 Available for Re
p0frs to Naval Vessels.

pairs to Naval Vessels.
The beginning of the fiscal year is being
marked with renewed activity at the va
rious navy yards and stations. Nearly
100000 for the repair of warships became
available yesterday. There is considerable
work of this character to be DONE and
plans have been made for work at the va
rlcus navy yards, involving expenditures
month. Owing to the lack of available
FUNDS the navy yards have been compare
lively idle for several weeks past and the
large appropriations for the current year
are to be utilized at once. The current
appropriations aggregate two million dol
lars more than those for last year and are
greater than for many years past
oroers nave been issued to the COM
mandants of all the navy yards directing
the employment of the maximum working
Iorces, and that repair work is to expe-
ulleo as much as possible. There are sew
eral vessels under repair which It is de-
sired to put into commission to replace
others reported to be in need of repairs
considerable work of this kind will be re-
quired in the cases of vessels ordered home
from the Philippines and Chinese stations
owing to the fact that the Mare Island
Oalffornfa) navy yard is already taxed To
its utmost capacity, It has been deemed ex-
pedlent to send some of the vessels of the
Aslatlc station to the Norfolk and Boston
navy yards for repairs The Boston yard
mas been revived as a repair station to
all classes of warships. Admiral Dewey's
nagshlp Olympia, which is undergoing re-
pairs at that yard, will be placed in COM
mission by the last of August and II is
expected that the cruiser San Francisco
being repaired at Norfolk will be put in
commission about the same time.

ISTHMIAN CANAL REPORT.

Admiral Walker, Chairman of the
Commission, Explains Delay.
Admiral Walker chairman of the insular
canal commission, said today. concerning
the reports OF delay in completing the re-
port Of the commission that there were only
two things interfering with satisfactory
progress-first the lack of draughtsmen to
complete the maps, and, second, the re-
arrangement of estimates on certain
branches of the work, due to new data
brought by the last party which arrived
from Central America. 1t is not antici-
pated, however, that these causes of delay
will operate very long, and the members
of the commission are hopeful that the re-
port can be completed within the present
month.
In other quarters 1t is stated that present
negotiations going with a view to
learning how far the government of C 0Iom-
bia will allow the United States to exercise
police power and maintain peace and order
along the route of the canal while work is
under way.
1t is the general view that this police
power should extend over a zone about
twelve miles wide, and as a zone of this
width would include the cities of Panama
on the Atlantic side and Colon on the Pa
cific side, some Importance has been given
to the inquiry concerning the police powers
to be exercised by the United States Of
ficials familiar with the matter say that the
inquiry does not involve any question of
American political sovereignty over the
zone. but simply the exercise of sufficient
police power to keep the turbulent element
within bounds. AS from 10000 to % 600
persons will be employed on the canal
work, it isN held to be of Importance to de-
termine how they and their following of
dfsorderly characters can be held in check
Thus far the views of the Colombian gov
ernment have not been made known on
these points, and they are understood to be
under consideration at Bogota Members
Of the commission say, however, that they

Rural Free Delivery Carriers Cannon
EnGaEe in Other Rusiness

Superintendent of Free Delivery Machen
Will shortly issue an order prohibiting all
carriers of rural 1ree delivery mail in the
United States from engaging in any other
business while performing their regular du-
ties as such carriers. Complaints have re-
Gently been received at the department
stating that many rural free delivery car
riers in different sections of the country
have been making it practice Of deliver
ing or selling goods along their mail routes
furnished by grocery and liquor men, who
evidently have readily perceived the ad-
vantage of reaching rural customers by
means of the mail man. 1t is said that
the carriers in some instances became so
industrious In attending to this incidental
business that they soon began to neglect
their regular duties Recently the depart
ment informed carriers that they might de-
liver and carry packages for persons living
along their mail routes, but this PROPOSE
ton never contemplated such a wholesale
scale of business which in some cases the
carriers have been engaging in. Mr.. Ma
chen Is determined to put an end to the
practice.

PRESENTATION OF CLAIMS.
When the Government VIII Not Sup
port Demands of Citizens


The Department of State has dec med to
prosecute the claim of Charles S. Allen,
an American, against the government of
Mexico. This is one of many such claims
preferred by American citizens which the
State Department has declined to coun-
tenance, although the impression prevails
that nearly every claim is sanctioned by
this government. Most careful inquiries
are made into the facts IN each case. and
only small proportion of really merit orr
GUS claims are adjudged worthy of prose-
cution by the State Department.
The departments view is set out as fol-
lows:
THE gist of the complaint Is that Mr.
Allen was arrested for working on a street
In the town of Ensenada in repairing a
broken water pipe without permit of the
municipality. The result of the judicial
proceedings had was a final discharge by
the superior court of the City of Mexico
The claimant asks damages for his i'm
prisonment
In cases Of this nature the right to dip
lomatic Intervention does not exist without
showing that there has been a denial of
Justice. Precisely the contrary appears
from the showing made by the claimant
since 1t appears that as the result of the
judicial proceedings and by the decision Of
the superior court the claimant was abso-
lutely set at liberty. 1t follows, therefore,
that the government of the United States
Is unable to entertain the claim.
1t not 1nfrequently happens that in the
United States wrongs are committed by
way of malicious prosecution and false i'm
prisonment. The most that could be said
II that much could be said in this case Is
that Mr. Allen has been subjected to false
Imprisonment or malicious prosecution In
both countries ample remedies are afforded
before the local tribunals for the redress of
such grievances, and the rule of inter-
national law is well settled that diplo-
matte Intervention does not lie in such
cases until all ordinary remedies which are
afforded by the local laws have been ex-
hausted"

that is to follow. President Chandler Is
now taking his vacation and other mem
bers of the commission will follow in rota-

1t is the idea of the commission not to
take recesses for stated times, as it would
be impossible to meet If occasion demanded
during the period of the recess So, instead
of following that course, the commission
will remain continually in session, osten-
sibly, and ready to meet any time, in fact,
II emergency requires.
Petitions will be received and filed al pre-
sented. but it is not likely that action Will
be taken upon any cases during this sum-

in the near future
