officials here have no knowledge that
such a large number of Indians are in
want, It is known that there are hun
dreds in a deplorable condition, and
that the circumstances warrant imme-
diate action by the department. The
desutution is caused by the lack Of
vegetation due to excessive heat.
Commissioner Jones has asked au-

KING OF ITALY IN BERLIN
Great Crowds cheer the Kaiser and the
ROVal Guest

Berlin, Aug. 2s.-The entry of King
Victor Emmanuel into the city yester-
day and his drive through the Unter
den Linden was advanced purposely
half an hour before the published time
as a precaution against possible dis
order. Consequently the great crowds
which were packed into the place an
hour before by the police at the Bran
burg gate were astonished by the ar
rival at a brisk trot of a gorgeous cav
alcade surrounding a six-horse car
riage, in which sat Emperor William
and a small man, in dark uniform,
pulling at a blond mustache.
The carriage stopped, and the chief
burgomaster, Herr Kirschner, read an
address Of welcome from a parchment
scroll. A deputation of young ladies'
gave the Italian king a bunch of roses.
He smiled, bowed, buried his face in
the blossoms, handed the bouquet to a
lackey and the cavalcade and carriage
swept through the gate and down
Inter den Linden to the castle, three
quarters of a mile away.
The cheers of the people were spon-
taneous and really cordial They
seemed so to Generals Corbin and
Young and their party, who had a row
of good windows. The American Off
GERS admired the splendidly horsed cav
airy more than anything else.

Cuban Papers Oppose Palma.

Havana, Aug. 29.-Ppresident Palma
found himself yesterday without the
support of a single newspaper con
trolled by the Cubans. The editorials
published in the Cuban press are re-
markable for their bitterness and out
spoken opposition of the chief execu-
tive. The only paper which supports
the president is the Diario De La
Marina, formerly the organ of the
Spanish government, and at present
representing the Spanish colony in
Cuba. One Of the principal causes OF
the opposition to President Palma
seems to arise from the fact that he
granted the Castoneda concession for
the establishment of an electric light
plant at Havana.
