Dallas, Tex, March 25.-E. P. Tur-
ner, general passenger agent of the
Texas and Pacific railway, has return
ed from tour of the southeastern
states. Mr.. Turner's trip was for the
purpose of informing himself as to how
many visitors are likely to come to
Dallas during the national confederate
reunion to be held on April %.
After careful observation, he esti-
mates that the railroads centering at
Dallas will bring in from beyond the
limits of Texas not less than 100, 900
persons during the four days of the
reunion. The number from Texas will
probably be far in excess of these fig
ures.
Everywhere l went" said Mr.. Tur-
ner, Il found the people talking about
and arranging to come to the reunion.
The railroads will have their hands
full and Dallas is going to be crowd
ed"

CUBAN POSTAL FRAUDS.
Rathbone and His Pals Are Heavily
Punished for Same.

Rathbone and His Pals Are Heavily
Punished for Same.
Havana, March 25.-The trials be-
fore the audencial court of the cases
arising from the embezzlement of Gu
ban postal funds has resulted in the
following sentences:
c. F. w. Neely, ten years imprison-
ment and to pay a fine of $56,701.
W. H. Reeves, ten years imprison-
ment and to pay fine of $35,516.
Estes G.. Rathbone, ten years i'm
prisonment and to pay a fine of $685.
324.
Rathbone, Neely and Reeves have
been on trial here for several weeks.
Rathbone was formerly director of
posts in Cuba and Neely and Reeves
were under him. 1t is alleged that the
three men entered into a conspiracy to
defraud, and that as a result large
sums were embezzled from the postal
funds of the island.
The frauds were committed soon
after the United States took charge of
affairs in Cuba, but the men were
only forced to trial during the present
year

ing to Cuba, Issue Call Convenng
the First Cuban Congress on May
10, 1902.
Washington, March 25.-May 20,
1902, is the new date fixed for turning
over the island Of Cuba to it's people.
The change of date was made, if not
at the suggestion then with the full
approval of President-elect Palma and
his advisors, Seniors Tamaya and Que
sada, who were with him at the war
department. today. This date estab-
lished a memorable one in Cuban his
tory, for it will not only mark the &C
QUESTION Of full independence, but will
be the Cuban Inauguration day, it hav-
ing been determined that President
Palma should be inaugurated on the
same day that American control of the
island ceases.
All but the smallest details of the
change in Cuba have been planned
and these remaining details were un-
der adjustment at a meeting held at
IllS w dl uSpdl IIuCuI IOudy. DCSlu6S
Secretary Root, President Palma and
Seniors Tamaya and Quesada, General
Wood attended. The meeting occur
red in the secretary's office. Besides
the final selection of May 20 as Gu
ban independence day, two other i'm
portant conclusions were reached. The
first was that General Wood should
Immediately upon his return to Cuba
issue a call cOnvening the first Cuban
congress in session on May 10 in order
that that body might employ the ten
days following that date in supplying
any legislation necessary to the as
sumption of full powers in the islands
The other conclusion was that there
should be no halfway evacuation of
the island. The present disposition is
to move the entire United States con-
tingent, civil and military, away from
the islands, not leaving a cOrporals
guard of United States soldiers in any
of the camps. If this program is not
executed 1t will be for the sole reason
that the Cubans themselves, through
their authorized officials, request that
the departure of the United States
troops be delayed for a time.
