BIRTH OF CUBAN REPUBLIC.
The Frankfurter Zeitung Com mends the American Example of
 Honor and Good Faith

Berlin, May 24.-Comment in Ger man newspapers upon the birth of the Cuban republic is both friendly and hostile. The Frankfurter Zeitung says:
 The resolution passed in the American congress, in 1898, by which Cuba was promised independence, was received everywhere abroad with the greatest ssepticism, and every body predicted that the United States would follow the examples of Great Britain in Egypt, France in Tunis and Russia in Asia. Even if annexation comes, the United States can pride it. self upon the fact that it has kept its word, which is by no means a matter of course among governments nowadays. The great republic de- serves all the more recognition for giving the world such a weighty ex | ample of honor and good faith"

The step could be imme- diately taken, so far as pacification of that part of the island is con- cerned, but some details of the sys- tenn need perfecting, and the United States commission thinks it best, at present, to leave Batangas under mili- tary control, which is operating most satisfactorily. The industrial condi- tions are improving rapidly. Crops have been planted throughout Batan- gas and will mature in August.

 French Government Relief Com mission.

Fort De France, Island of Martin ique, Thursday, May 22.-At five o'clock this afternoon the sky was clear and the population was calm; but despite this favorable change in the situation, many families left Fort De France by the French steamers Versailles and the Vile De Hanger for the island of Trinidad and for Cayenne, French Guiana. This, with the 1900 persons who have gone to the island of Guadeloupe, and many others who have sought refuge at St. Lucia and other islands, has les sened the population considerably. Besides these, some 2,ooo people have left for the southern parts tef the is- land of Martinique, where 5000 ref ugees have now assembled. This de- sertion of Fort De France has result ed in the disorganization of many trades. A number of bakers have been compelled to close their stores owing to the fact that their employees are among those who have fled.
 The French cruiser Tage, having Admiral Servan on board, arrived here this evening. She reported that Mont Pelee now presents more assur- ing prospects. The clouds of smoke leaving the crater mingle with the clouds in the sky and do not have the treatening aspect they formerly presented.
 A new crater has formed in the vi- cinity of Ajoupa Boullon.
 A locality known as Camae Trianon is causing a good deal of anxiety at present.

 Have consulted with the council of the colony on the subject of the total or partial evacuation of the is- land. They are unanimous in declar- ing that such a measure is not justi- fable at present.

About 1000 persons are leaving by the steamer Versailles and others are sailing on the Vile De Hanger for Trinidad and Cayenne. There have been no new fatalities.

ON BOARD THE GAULOIS.
luncheon to President Roosevelt Oh Board the French Cruiser
 GauIOIs at Annapolis.

Annapolis, Md, May 24.-The lunch con given yesterday on board tho French battleship Gaulois in honor Of President Roosevelt was one of the most memorable incidents of the visit of the distinguished French soldiers and sailors to this country, who are here to join in the celebration of the nnveiling of the monument to the memory of Gen. Rochambeau, which takes place in Washington to-day.
 The members of the French and American commissions arrived from Washington an hour in advance of the presidential train. They were met at the station, escorted to the Glouces- ter and Standish and conveyed to the French battleship lying in the Annap- olis roads. Gov. Smith of Maryland joined the commissioners at the wharf.
 President Roosevelt and his party of American officials arrived at 11:3O. They were driven to the naval acade- my through a double line of marines and national guardsmen; thence to the wharf, reviewing the battalion of cadets en route. Boarding the dis patch boat Dolphin the party was soon by the side of ''The Pride of the French Navy"
 As the Dolphin approached the an- ,horage ground of the Gualois and the American escorting squadron the Olympia, Alabama and Kearsarge "a presidential salute was fired, and the continuous detonation furnished 3 strong reminder of an up-to-date naval battle. As soon as the presi- dent came aboard the Gaulois, accom- panied by his daughter and Secre- aries Root and Moody, he was met by Ambassador Cambon, Gen. Brugerc and Admiral Fournier, and escorted to the cabin of the officers. Here general handshaking, congratula- tions and preliminary refreshments ansued. Then followed the luncheon rendered to President Roosevelt by the French ambassador.
 After the delicacies of a choice French menu had been discussed, Am bassador Cambon arose, and, in the name of President Loubet of the French republic, bid a hearty well come to all who were present. He was especially complimentary in his allusions to President Roosevelt, in whose hands, he said, the precious liberties of the American people were safe. He eloquently alluded to the historic occasion which had called them together and expressed the con- fidence, hope and belief that the splendid friendship between the French and American people, which had continued unbroken for a cen tury, would continue for generations. He concluded by offering toast gro the president of the glorious Ameri- can republic, which had set the ex- ample of popular liberty not only for France, but for the whole world"
 In proposing the health of Presi- dent Roosevelt, Ambassador Cambon said that in extending the invitation to the chief magistrate of the United States he wished to emphasize the fact that he was acting as the direct and personal representative of Presi- dent Loubet of the French republic.
 President Roosevelt replied in his happiest vein, though speaking with unusual deliberation, as though he measured every word he uttered.
