WHAT AMERICANS DID.
General Woods Summary of the Work
in Behalf of Cubans.

NEW YORK, May 20.-In dispatch from
Havana, the World publishes over the sig
nature of General Leonard Wood a review
of the work accomplished during the Ameri-
can regime in the island, the government
of which was handed over to-day to the
Cubans.
Public order, says the article, is perfect
throughout the island. Cuba is free from
all contagious diseases and its death rate
compares favorably with that of the United
State. An efficient and well-equipped school
system has been established. The hospitals,
charities and jails have been reorganized,
rebuilt and re-equipped.
During the last year 25 per cent. of the
total revenues of the island went into pub
lie education. Schools have been constructed
at the rate of more than one day for the
past year. The lighthouses have been re-
built and re-eQuipped and two firSt-claSS
lights have just been completed on the Col
orado reefs. The ports and harborS have
been fully supplied with buoys and launches
for harbor patrol work and a fleet of
revenue cutters built and the service fully
organized and equipped. The same is true of
the custom house service and launches.
Complete quarantine and immigration SER
vice has been established. The courts have
been reorganized and re-equipped. Free
schools for typewriting and stenography
have been opened.
A new law of public works has been writ
ten the lines followed by the United
States government. Cities like Santiago and
Havana have undergone a sanitary re-
construction. The payment of the public Of
ficials is practically on the same system as
is employed by the United States govern
ment. In short, Cuba is turned over in a
well-ordereG, healthy condition and the new
government will find all departments we'll
equipped and in good running order.
In a dispatch to the American and Jour
nal President-elect Palma says: Il have
nothing but gratitude for the American
neODle lndpnpnOpnpP ha
is grateful and never will forget what the
mother of republics has done for her.

ALL THE WORLD NOTIFIED.
United States Has Redeemed Its
Pledge to Make Cuba Free

WASHINGTON, May 2O-Secretary Hay,
according TO the plan arranged some time
ago, took the final step to-day of ac-
quainting the nations of the globe that the
United States government has redeemed it's
solemn pledge TO make free people in the
island of Cuba. This was done by the dis
patch by cable to every capital where there
is resident either an ambassador or minis
ter for the United States, of an identical
note informing our representatives that
the military occupation of the island of
Cuba by the United States had this day
ceased, and that an independent govern
ment republican in form, had been inaugu-
rated there under the presidency of Tomas
Estrada Palma. The ambassadors and min
listers are instructed to convey this in
formation to the government TO which they
are accredited.
In issuing this notice Secretary Hay also
takes upon himself the burden of looking
after Cuban affairs so far as they are vet
placed under the observation of the United
States by the terms of the Platt amend
ment, wrought into the Cuban Constitu-
ton. Secretary Root lays down his work
having further official interest in the
island save in the maintenance of the small
force of United States soldiers who are
taking care of the defenses of Havana
until the Cubans themselves are trained to
this work

SHOW PEOPLE ANNOYED.
The Usual Crowd of Tough Youngsters
Infests the Grounds.

A free-for-an fight last night about $50
o'clock between employees of the Gentry
dog and pony show. and crowd of negroes
gave promise for a while of becoming
serious. The negroes have made the lives
of the white showmen miserable since the
show arrived. For this reason a large squad
of patrolmen under Sergeants Hagerman
and Scheigert has been stationed near the
tents. Last night there was clash. In the
fight William Morgan, young colored
boy living at 312 West Twelfth street, was
cut in the back. He did not know his assail-
ant. He is not seriously injured. During the
fight someone threw large pickax into
the crowd, but fortunately no one was hurt.
The fight was quelled for a time, but was
resumed short while afterward in the rear
of the cook tent Thomas Lester, a young
boy who says he belongs to the show, was
arrested about 10 o'clock for carrying con-
cealed weapons. He was in possession of n
razor when the police caught him. There
were about twenty others arrested, but the
charges against them were either lettering
or obstructing the sidewalk.
