1T has now been made certain that
the Cuban government does not intend
to take any action. either now or for n
long time to come. upon the treaty en-
bodying the pledges contained in the Platt
amendment which was transmitted to it
from Washington nearly four months ago.
And now II is announced that
the Cuban congress has decided TO ad-
journ on October 20. leaving il unratifed.
Just what this means is the subject OF
various conjectures, but there can be no
difference OF intelligent and impartial
opinion as 10 the lack of common graft
tude which II expresses or as TO the moral
turpitude which IL exhibits. IL Is
breach OF faith of peculiarly despicable
and dscreditable description, and there is
some reason to supect that IL indicates
the contemplated commission Of fur
ther act OF peculiar perfidy Apparently.

given in any way, AS has been
frequently noted the mine man
ayers have proven themselves an
obstinate set and singularly lack
ing in the observance of the ordi-
nary proprieties.
Until the final weakening of
the operators a few newspapers
were making clever arguments in
support OF the rights of property
but no comment whatever on the
probable sufferings by millions
or the threatened paralysis OF our
manufacturing industries. Now
these same newspapers declare
the operators lacked tact and as
sert that if they had been more
careful at the outset there would
have been no strike this year.
This is only stating very tardily
self-evident truth.
Attention is called to the fact
that had the representatives OF the
operators been possessed OF a
little of the tact and ability OF
the managers of the iron and
steel trust they would not be fac
ing such a tremendously strong
as the United Mine
Workers. President Baer's claim
that the ablest men have been en-
with the management OF
the coal mines by the Omnipotent
appears to have had all the props
that supported it knocked away.

COMMISSION NOT SIGNED.
Washington Heare of the CommOtiOn
in This City.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 9.-The President
has not yet signed the commission of AL
bert b. Anderson, the newly-appointed dis
trict judge for Indiana. According 20 the
usual precedent three executive sessions of
the Senate must be held before the new
Judge can get his commission, or rather
two executive sessions besides the one
which confirmed the appointment. After
this formality is gone through with the
Department of Justice is then officially no.
titled and it requires about forty eight
hours to get the matter before the Presi-
dent again.
A telegram was received here from In
dianapolis to-day asking that Mr.. Ander-
sons commission be withheld until the
close of the Jennings case, as Judge Baker
was in doubt about his authority. Later
news was received here that Judge Baker
had already retired from the case. claiming
he is no longer federal judge. The usual
formalities incident TO the new appoint
ment will probably require several days.

NEEDS OF STATE LIBRARY
LEGISLATURE ASKED TO PROVIDE
MORE MONEY FOR 1T.
Report OF Public Library Commission
Reviews Progress Made and EN-
bodies Recommendations.

The state of Indiana should pay a little
more attention TO the literary necessities
of it's citizens, is the plea of the Public
Library Commission which filed its report
with the Governor yesterday. There is
need, the commission thinks, of a larger
appropriation by the Legislature not only
to build up the State Library, which is in
danger of decay, but to maintain branch
libraries, and In other ways to better the
intellectual food of the people.
The commission is composed of Jacob
p. Dunn. OF Indianapolis; Mrs. Elizabeth
c. Earl, of Connersvlle; Joseph r. voris,
of Bedford; w. E. Henry, of Indianapolis,
and Miss Merica Hoagland, of Indianapolis
The report, which is the second statement
of the commission, reviews the progress
of library work in the remote past as
well as in the last year.
There are now twenty-seven Carnegie
buildings in the State, the report says,
and a number of other propositions ..ave
been made by Mr.. Carnegie which, IL is
believed, will be accepted by towns receiv-
ing the offers. Two hundred Libraries
made reports to the commission. In sixty
counties there are established libraries sys-
tematically managed, and in thirty-two
counties there are no established libraries.
Inc Ndlue OF DOCKS anu library property
is estimated to be S250O,OoO
Librarians do not get much for their
services, the commission finds. Only ten
librarians in the State get from $500 TO
$1,000 annually. Seventeen receive from
$500 TO 5000, and twenty-eight receive COM
pensation of from $i5 10 $500.
The appropriation for the State Library
last year was $1,000, an amount which
was made TO suffice by the most careful
economy but which was, ii has been
found far too small to permit of ex-
tensions and purchase of books desired by
the commission.
There hae been a marked growth of in
terest in libraries on the part of philan-
tnropists in the last two years. The gifts
to libraries numbered 1,lS9 and amounted
to $50. S54 S24. 20. The attention of people
generally has been called to the evil effects
of cheap and vicious books, the commits
sion says, and there Is a strong movement
to better the standard of books.
The subject of the training of librarians
occupies considerable space in the report of
the Commission Attention is called TO the
school maintained for several months in
the Statehouse under the direction of Miss
Merica Hoagland. A department for the
training of librarians will be conducted at
Winona next summer from July 8 to Aug 5.
Workingmen's libraries should receive the
attention of the lawmakers the commission
believes and money should be appropriated
for that purpose. The advantages of the
travelling libraries under the direction of
the state librarian have been great during
the past two years, the commission re-
ports.
The recommendation is made to the Gov
ernor that the commission be enlarged and
that the annual appropriation be increased.

BIG TERMINAL STATION
1T is ANNOUNCED THAT MILLER
BLOCK SITE WILL BE USED.
Ground VIII Cost 100000 and the
Building 81 ,OOO,OOO-Activity i'm
Street-Railway stock.

Work is to begin as early possible on
the new interurban terminal station which
is to be built at Illinois and Market streets
President MCGOWAN, of the Indianapolis
Street-railway Company, made this an
nouncement last night and also announced
that the negotiations for the land needed
have been so successful that the selection
of that site is positive.
According to the announcements, the
Traction and Terminal Company will have
1eO feet front Illinois street, the full
frontage between Illinois street and Capt.
tol avenue on Market street and $50 feet
frontage on Capitol avenue. This area is
believed to be sufficient to accommodate
the plans of the company.
Fronting on Illinois street will be the
office building promised by Mr.. MCGOWAN
last July. 1t will be at least nine stories
high and will have an arcade leading from
Illinois street to the waiting rooms for
the interurban cars. These will enter
sheds back of the Office building. A wait
ing room 50 feet wide and 160 feet long will
be provided. AT the north end of the sheds
a series OF tracks will be put In TO retain
cars for various emergencies No cars
Will enter the station from Illinois street.
couple OF pieces of land needed have
not DetH ana concentration pro-
ceedings may be necessary TO get them.
The cost of all the property needed will be
about 100000 and the cost of the building
will be over S1,O00.000. Contracts have been
made for the steel and much other ma
terial. and the fourteen months remaining
for the completion of the station are
deemed ample. The contract of the Trac-
ton and Terminal Company required the
completion in eighteen months from Aug
ust, 1902.
The building will be of the most modern
character and in it all the Offices of the
interurban companies and the Indianapolis
| company will be located If applications
| for office room are great enough the num-
Der of stories will be increased to twelve
| or fourteen.
The announcement of the plan for mer-
| ger OF the Indianapolis Street-railway Com
pany and the Traction and Terminal Com
| pany caused the stock OF the Indianapolis
| Street-railway Company to do some soaring

brokers anticipate that there will be con-
