Top Cotton Crop is All Ia Talk.

Valdosta, Ca, November IL see Mr.
Neill has come forward with an estimate
of III 100000 or 1000, 900 bales of cotton
The people of the South will see that hi
is out OF line l, ,OOO, 900 bales when theil
crop is gathered and marketed.
In 1890 he said the crop would reach
$4,000, 900 bales. Figures showed we die
not make 100000 bales. We can't
give much credence to his estimates
The farmers of the South have marketed
% per cent of their cotton crop and this
has been sold for less than it cost tc
make. We can't make 100000 bales
with drought, over1ows and the Mexi-
can boil weevil to destroy.
The spinners and their agents tell us
we will mako moro from the top croI
than we did from the bottom otop
Farmers tell me that the top crop OF
cotton is like the top crop of children
it don't amount to much. Most of the
talk and writing of the top crops is done
by the spinners.

yssu York Sun Special Servsos
Washington. March 26.-Former Sena-
tor William D. Washburn, of Minneapolis
arrived from Havana, and was at the cap
itol in conference with number of re-
publicans. Mr. Washburn has been in
Cuba for a month. He said:
Financially the people of Cuba are In
desperate condition. There is no mistaking
the sentiment that the island must have some
relief from the tariff sugar. The senti-
ment is deep; desperate, in fact. It is a
question Of survival. The appeals the people
make are almost pathetic. From a CONNER
cial point Of view they have received no ad-
yantages since this government became re-
sponsible for the island. They are looking
to relief from the duties now enforced on
sugar, followed as 1t would be by close reci-
procity relations. That is what the people Of
Cuba want, what they are praying for and
begging for. There seems to be disposition
on the part Of our people to grant something
IN that line. think, to give the people of
Cuba anything like a reasonable chance there
should be reduction Of 50 per cent at least
from the present duty on sugar, coupled with
close reciprocal relations. This would mean
advantageous reciprocal returns to this
country.
Mr.. Washburn had a talk with Presi-
dent Roosevelt in which he expressed his
views on the Cuban situation very frank
ly. He will go home the latter part Of
this week.

PALMA IS APPRECIATIVE
United States Minister to Be the
First to Present Credentials
to the New Republic.

Washington. March 26.-secretary Root
has made public an order TO General
Wood directing him to turn over the con-
troll. OF the government OF. Cuba to it's
people May 20. The order requires, the
cuban government to assume all treaty
obligations and directs General Wood to
continue small artillery force to avoid
leaving the island entirely defenseless
until the Cuban government shall have
time to organize its own force. General
Wood Is also directed to convene the Gu
ban congress May 80. He is directed to
consult with President elect Palma and
substitute such persons as he shall desire
for those now holding official positions in
Cuba.
No other country will recognize the in
dependence of Cuba until the United
States has done so. and our minister
will be the first to present his credentials
at the presidents palace in Havana.
This is necessary because the great ma
tons assume that Drotectorate exists
in Cuba until the United States ends 1t
by sending a diplomatic representative
there, which will be notice to the world
that the United States acknowledges the
independence of Cuba. Before his de-
parture for New York, President-e elect
Palma said:
The government Of the United States has
shown most beautiful example Of good faith
In dealing with weak government which it
undertook to rescue from it's oppressors. It
has demonstrated its generosity and patriot
ism, and by the shedding of it's own blood
has helped Cuba to break the chain which
united it with Spain. Some countries would
have sought some pretext for selfish gain in
undertaking a work of this character and
taken advantage Of some technicality for their
own ACKNOWLEDGEMENT, but the contrary spirit
has been manifested by the United States, and
it has given to the world an evidence of good
will seldom found.

Fine Programme of Events to Take
 Place Next Thursday.
 The benefit polo game for the we'll known and popular New Haven boy, George D. Bone, jr., who broke his arm in a game some weeks ago, will doubtless prove one of the leading ath letic events of the season.
 It will be given in the Chapel street polo rink on Thursday evening and the chief attraction will be the polo game between Portland and Worcester of the American league.
 Jimmy Canavan of this city is cap tain of the Portland team and Dickey Pierce is captain of the Worcester team. Tom Cotter will referee the game, and it will start at 9 o'clock. Aside from this game there will be an amateur game between the Plymouth and Kimberley teams of the amateur leag que commencing at 7:30 o'clock. The Liberty quartet will sing and a buck and wing dance will be given by two New Haven boys.
 A fine evening is promised to all who attend. and it is hoped that the rink will be filled to the doors. It doubt less will be as George Bone is deserv- ing Of it.
