Washington, March 26.-May 20 IN
the date fixed upon for turning over
the island of Cuba to its people. The
change of date was made, if not at
the suggestion, then with the full ap-
proval of President-elect Palma and
his advisers, Seniors Tamaya and
Quesada, who were with him at the
war department Tuesday. This date
should be q memorable one in Cuban
history, for it will not only mark the
acquisition of full independence but
will be the Cuban Inauguration day,
1t having been determined that Pres
ident Palma shall be inaugurated on
the same day that American control
Of the island ceases.
Beside the final selection Of May
20 as Cuban independence day, two
other important conclusions were
reached. The first was that Gen. Wood
should Immediately upon his return
to Cuba, issue a call converting the
first Cuban congress in session on
May 10 in order that the body might
employ the ten days following that
date in supplying any legislation nee
esssry to the assumption Of full pow
ers in the island. The other con-
clusion was that there should be no
halfway evacuation Of the island; the
present disposition is to move the en-
tire United States contingent, civil
and military, away from the island,
not even leaving a corporal's guard
Of United States soldiers IN any of the
camps. If this programme is not ex-
ecuted it will be for the sole reason
that the Cubans themselves, through
their authorized officials, require that
the departure of the United States
troops be delayed for time.

claimed: "Thank God, I've done It'll
I've horsewhipped you and now I'm

ping Miss Boise gave the mayor Sc
we're scolding and accused him Of be-
ing responsible for the fact that the

and for the murder which was re-
Gently committee in Roy Daniels sa-
loon. She then pulled the horsewhip

fore the mayor knew what had hap
pened she struck him three times

LONDON ONLY HOPES.
Fear Expressed That schalk. Burger Does
Not Represent Fighting Doors
In the Field.

London, March 25.-The Associated
press has good reason to believe that
Lord Kitchener, in his interview with
Mr.. Schalk-Burger, agreed to with
draw the Punishment proclamation
issued in September if Gen. Dewet and
the other Boer leaders surrender.
There is little disposition in Lon
don to regard the news of the Boer
governments visit to Pretoria any
too hopefully. Official circles express
doubts Of the ability of Acting Presi.
dent Schalk-Burger and the other
civilian leaders of the Beers to in
duce such men as Gen. Dewet and De-
larey to surrender. Possibly they
think the representatives of the
Transvaal government are DESTROYS of
suing for peace, but there is nothing
to show that they have any authority
to impose submission on the COM
manders in the field.

satisfied them that he was the guilty
man.

ployed by the railroad company for
several years.

FOR A NEW DYNASTY.
Object OF she Extensive Rebellion In China
L. to Reach Pelrin and overthrow
the Present Regime.

Victoria, B. c., March 26.-Marcus
c. Hill, Yokohama merchant, who
arrived on the steamer Kaga Maru, Is
said to be carrying orders to New
York for arms and ammunition for
the rebels in southern China. Mr..
Hill, in an interview, says that if the
cable reports of the capture of six
cities by the rebels are correct, the
movement, which is under DR.. Sum
yatsen, will be successful. Before
leaving for America Mr.. Hill saw the
rebel leader and was told by him that
$4,000 troops were ready to join the
rebellion and would bring with them
modern arms and ammunition. Re-
cruits, he says, are flocking to the
rebel standard and their hope is to
reach the city of Canton. Here they
expect to get sufficient ammunition
and arms and treasure to carry on
the rebellion, which will eventually
result in the overthrow Of the reign
ing power in China. DR.. Sunyatsen
believes the time opportune for the
rebellion. However, the rebels, 1t is
said, will not modest foreigners. The
whole movement is to accomplish
the overthrow of the present dynasty.

It is an extremely favorable fact
that no serious engineering difficult
ties bar the way to the construction
Of deep canal from the Mississippi
river to the lakes. No mountains
intervene, with torrential streams
and huge walls of rock. Nature has
carved the path by way of the ILL
nois river, and an important link at
the lakes has already been built. All
that remains to be considered is the
cost. Rock excavations can be made
as less than half the expenditure Of
20 years ago, and dredging machinery
has been greatly enlarged.
