the army year ago to represent large
American manufacturing interests on

the captain could not see any solution
of the problem. now that reciprocity has
failed except through annexation to this
country.
When I left Havana on the 18th OF

was discussing the advantages and dis
advantages of annexation. The business
interests in Cuba are arrayed solidly in
favor of union with this country, and 1t

mapped out for the city of Havana. He
said their failure to do this would in

Havana authorities would In time relax
their sanitary methods, and spread of
yellow fever would result.
