JUSTICE BEFORE POLITICS
president REGRETS NECESSITY OF
OPPOSING MANY REPUBLICANS,
But He Believes He Is Right in Urg-
ing that Cuba He Treated with
Promised Fairness.

WASHINGTON June Is. President
Roosevelt to-day sent a message 10 Con-
gress reafhrming his attitude on the sub
ject Of Cuban reciprocity. The Presidents
action was influenced by the broad ques-
tion of the duty of the United States TO
Cuba and of fairness to the new republic
1t had been pointed out to the President
that his warmest political support is in the
section of the country where there is the
greatest opposition TO reciprocity, the West
and Northwest, and that he should remain
content with the stand he had taken with
out accentuating his views in a special
message. 1t is known. however. that the
President did not hesitate to arrive at the
conclusion that he would not let his polit-
ical prospects interfere with what he re-
CARDS his plain duty. 1t is further
known that he told his friends that il was
a source of great regret TO him 10 take a
position hostile to the wishes Of his warm
est supporters, but that he felt IL would
not be in keeping with is own nature and
his position chief executive 10 longer re-
main silent on this subject and thereby give
an opportunity for false speculation as TO
his attitude.
The President was further led to conclude
that the relations of the United States and
Cuba must necessarily grow closer and that
the United States should not at the outset,
after its declared purposes toward the
island, assume a position contrary thereto
and thus arouse the suspicious OF the
Cuban government as TO our real intentions
toward IT,

taken to-day by High Sheriff Hunter c.

tions made to him that the deputies ac-
complished no good purpose. but melted

system of the United Traction Company

WOOD COURTS AN INQUIRY
SAYS HE WAS ACTING AS TRUSTEE
FOR CUBA WHILE GOVERNOR.
His Efforts to Promote Reciprocity
Were Legitimate and In the In
terest of the Island.

BOSTON, June 13.-During his visit to
this city to-day Gen. Leonard Wood, for
mer governor general of Cuba. expressed
himself in no uncertain terms regarding
the alleged irregularity in the expenditure
of Cuban government funds i'm the interest
of reciprocity. He declared that, acting as
trustee for the island, he has spent the
money to good purposes and had done sim
ply what any good administrator would do
in like circumstances.

highest terms.
OF the situation in Cuba General Wood
said: There is nothing in connection with
my administration of Cuban affairs that
l wish to cover up Talk of investigation
is welcome to me. Every expenditure that
was made was free and aboveboard. So
far as l can see there was nothing new
brought out by the testimony of Mr..
Thurber. 1t perhaps accentuated a little
the needs of Cuba as regards reciprocity

tee for Cuba. l simply used Mr.. Thurbers S
mailing list as the best means of distribut-
ing the literature on reciprocity and this
was well known before the examination
OF Mr.. Thurber by the Senate subcommit-
tee. In my opinion the opposition to tariff
reciprocity with Cuba has proceeded upon
lines of Misrepresentation. 1 took it upon
myself TO place the facts before the peo-
pie of the United States as l saw them.
There seemed to be no one else to under

CHINESE BARRED FROM CUBA.


HAVANA, June 13-The board of immi-
grafton decided to-day that the forty-three
Chinese laborers who came to Havana on
board the steamer Monterey from New
York and reached here last Wednesday,
would have to be returned to New York
by the steamship company. Heretofore
Cinnamon have been allowed to enter
Havana without restriction and thousands
have landed here In the course of the last
three years. An immigration law, however,
similar to the one enforced in the United
States went into force in Cuba last May,
and the case of these Cinnamon has re-
suited in the first application of this law.
The forty-three Cinnamon in question came
direct from China and we're shipped in bond
from Vancouver through New York to Ha-
Vana.
The Ward Line Steamship Company has
asked for the privilege of shipping the
Cinnamon to Mexico instead of returning
them TO New York, as the Cinnamon them
selves have requested to be sent TO that
country. The board of immigration has not
yet given decision in the latter matter.

More Teamsters Discharged.

CHICAGO, June 13.-Likelihood of another
strike of teamsters employed in the stock
yards increased to-day when IL was an
nounced that twenty-one union drivers for
Swift & Co. had been discharged. No rea-
son was given for letting the men out and
the action of the stockyards house has ag-
gravated the ill-feeling among the team
sters. They fear that the discharge of the
members is the first step on the part of the
packers toward doing away with all their
teamsters. They have learned that Swift
ers are now making preparations TO deliver
all their meats to substations by rail. No
attempt was made to-day by the teamsters
to reach an agreement with the packers
