AFFAIRS IN CUBA.
General Wood Reports that the People
Want a Taste of Freedom.
(By Associated Press.)

(By Associated PreSS.)
New York. Nov 29.-Among the pas
sengers who arrived yesterday from
Havana We're Gen. Leonard Wood, gov
ernor of Cuba; Mrs. Wood, M. j. Daily,
the contractor: Sir William Vanhorne,
Lieutenant Barden and Lieut.. Frank
Mccoy.
General Wood said he would proceed
directly to Washington to report tc
President Roosevelt and expected to re-
turn to Cuba ON December Z. He said
he expressed no opinion on the question
of annexation of Cuba and to do so
would be impolitic. Matters were quiet
in Cuba and preparations were being
made for the election in February.
"Of course said General Wood,
there are a number of people in Cuba
who desire annexation, but I doubt the
possibility of securing canvass Of opin.
ion on the question. The people of
Cuba wish to see their flag floating over
Moro castle, even If it were only for a
week."
Mr.. Daily says the city council of Ha-
vana, by an unanimous vote, gave him
the Havana contract for public inn
provements there and that the plans and
specifications are in preparation for
presentation to General Wood, who will
consider the matter on his return tc
Cuba.

Of Wabash Wreck.
(By Associated Press.) :

Detroit, Nov. 29.-Pietro Cardiello,
italian consul agent in Detroit, returned
70 the city today from the scene of the
Wabash wreck near Seneca to which he
had hurried to look after the interests
Of his countrymen, SO many Of whom
burned to death.
He said he was not yet able to form
anything like a correct list of the num-
ber of Italians killed.
"While cannot tell how many were
killed." said Mr.. Cardiello, II am in
clined to think the estimates thus far
are a trifle exaggerated. 1t will prob.
ably be necessary to send to Italy for
the names of the immigrants who were
on the train and then check the list
with those who escaped"
Whether the terrible loss Of life sus-
tained by the Italians will be made the
subject of correspondence between the
Italian and United States governments,
the consular agent could not say.
''That would come within the jurisdic.
ton of Count Rosedowski. the Italian
consul at Chicago" he said. II have no
doubt that he has already advised our
government OF the accident"

But yesterday "Silent," with his 122

are heavyweights in and out of the city
prison, who are thinking much Of their
experience.
Drink Mixer Beaten.
One of "Silent's" victims was a for

bars, who had gathered in too much
champagne punch.
He was registered for the night at
the Jail, and his clean collar didn't suit
the men of the kangaroo court.

Then the tables were turned for the other

A taste of blood was sufficient for
Rowan, and he started in to clean out

there could be heard muffied cries. while
the little fellow made stars come to the
vision of the big "vags" who landed

more people to conquer and "Silent"
was lonesomely surveying the field Night
Jailer Shea came downstairs to take a
hand,
AS result Of Mr.. Shea's visit the man

are others who feel just as badly.

because of the jailer's visit he won't do
it again.

FIXING RESPONSIBILITY.
Conductor Of Wrecked Train Explains
How Horror Was brought About.
(By Associated Press. }

\by ASSOCldlGu TTeSSJ
Detroit, Nov. 29.-Conductor G. j. Mar
tin of Wabash Train No. 4, which COL
lided with Train No. 13 near Seneca on
Wednesday night. causing the loss of
about 80 lives, said today that the order
given him at Montpelier was to pass
No. 13 at Seneca.
my ORDERS said he, (which took
to Engineer Strong and read over to
him, and which agreed with his orders,
read: No. 4, Engine 609, will meet No.
13, Engines SO and ISL, at Seneca, ana
No. 8, Engine 623, at Sand Creek After
receiving these orders / remember ask
ing the agent at Montpelier whether the
new siding at Seneca would contain my
train.
II was toward the rear Of the chair
car fixing UP passengers ticket when
I saw the station lights of Seneca flash
by and felt the air. brake applied
felt no alarm, supposing the engineer
was slowing down for the east switch
in order to see the numbers of thirteen's
engines, which supposed had cleared.
Just then the brakeman, who had
been on the lookout. came hurrying into
the chair car and pulled the cord twice.
What is 1t, Tony?' called.
"'We're going through Seneca he an
SWereu, ana an instant later the crash
came"
This bears out Superintendent Hunts
statement that Engineer Strong of No. 4
either misunderstood or forgot his orders
and ran by Seneca, where he was or
dered to pass No. 13.
When Conductor Martins statement
was repeated to Engineer Strong, the en-
gineer said:
Il have not denied at any time that
we received such an order. I only say
that II we did get such an order mis-
read and misunderstood it, and that 1
should have been set right by the con-
ductor. MY fireman will tell you that
he, too, understood that we were to meet
both trains at Sand Creek instead Of
Seneca. If I made an error was not
alone to blame. The other three men,
bers of the crew must have understood
as l did, or else they would have cor
rected me.''
Engineer Strong attaches responsible
ity to the conductor and brakeman for
the simple fact, he says, that if he had
understood he was to meet No. Is at
Seneca, he would have blown one Iona
and one short blast Immediately after
whistling for the Seneca station, when
his train was half a mile from that point.
NOT having done so, he claims that
either the conductor or the brakeman.
If they understood the order to read
seneca, should have whistled him down
by pulling the cord twice.
