WILL PUT ON FAST TRAINS.
70 Shorten Time Between New York and the
Pacific Coast.

Chicago. May S1.--The Chronicle
this morning says:
The first of June will witness the
first great step toward faster time be-
tween New York and the Pacific coast.
There is a we'll fouaded report that
there has been an agreement between
the Pennsylvania and New York Central
officials for fast trains to go on at once,
and that the fast time to be made be-
tween New York and Chicago is to be
20 hours. This is shortening of the
time between these two places by four
hours below the fastest trains now run
ming, and almost six hours below the
ordinary trains. Following the de-
termination of the Chicago & North
western to put on a fast train from
Chicago to Denver June 1, the action of
the Eastern lines is regarded as having
a direct bearing in the plans for quicker
time to the Pacific coast.

Defiant Element.
Manila, May 31.-Colonel Frank d.
Baldwin, of the Fourth United States
infantry, has telegraphed to Brigadier
General George w. Davis, in command
of the United States troops in the
island Of Mindanao, that he does not
expect to establish satisfactory peace
conditions in the Lake Lano district
until the defiant element is wiped out.
The natives pretending to be friendly
are urging that this be done, as their
own lives are in jeopardy, which, !" the
colonel adds, 1--WE are in the highest
sense under obligations to protect. /"
''The defiant element" continues Col
onel Baldwin, respect nothing but
powder and the sword. They will de-
stroy human lives until destroyed them
selves" General Davis replied that,
to meet the emergency in the way sug-
gested, would necessitate the capture of
every fort which now admins American
troops as friends, which was forbidden
under existing orders.

NO FAvoRs TO TERRITORIES.
Senate Committee Wants Each To Stand on
is Own Bottom.

tU VNn bOkIOns
Washington, May S0.-The decision
of the Republican members of the sem
ate territory committee not to take up
the omnibus territorial bill was based
upon the fact that nc time could be
given to the consideration of the bill at
this session, and the further fact that
the members of the committee think
that each territory should stand
on its own bottom. and not be carried
along by a meritorious territory like
Oklahoma. Probably a separate bill
may be passed for Oklahoma, but there
is still vigorous opposition to both
Arizona and New Mexico, on the
ground that they have not shown a
sufficient increase of population. Even
if the Oklahoma bill be reported it is
doubtful if it could get consideration in
the senate under the present conditions.

NEGROES DYING OIrT IN CITBA.

1 NEGROES DYING OUT IN CUBA, ] The negro question seems to be in @
 fair way to settle itself in Cuba without recourse to the aid of philanthropic so-
 cieties or government regulations. Ma
 jor Gorgas tells us in his report on the
 vital statistics of the cities of Havana 1 and Guanabacoa that during the month ! of January in those cities the native whites showed an excess of 1S8 births over deaths, that is the figures were 457
 and 269, whereas the native negroes showed an excess of fifty eight deaths | over births, that is to say the figures were 12S and seventy. The figures for the year 1901 are even more significant. During the twelve months the native negroes lost 513, making total gain for the natives of 1,227 inhabitants. The deaths of foreigners brought the differ ence down to exactly one, although it must be remembered that the number of foreigners dying indicates that the city is gaining rapidly in population by immigration. If this keeps up for reasonable length of time there will soon be no negroes left in Cuba, and this, notwithstanding the fact that the difficulty of obtaining marriage licenses does not appear to have any deterrent effect upon the increase of the negro population, because of all births among negroes fifty-seVen were illegitlmate and only thirteen were legitimate. The most fatal disease from which the ne- groes suffer is apparently pulmonary tuberculosis, The ordinary infections seem to attack them neither more or less virulently than they attack the whites and the difference in population is considerable. The baneful effects of oivilization in decreasing the brth-rate have not appeared very notably in the negro race elsewhere. Negroes are ap- parently more adaptable to civilization than other savage races, and although they have not yet entirely lost some of their aboriginal characteristics even af- ter residence of several generations in this country, they manage to hold their own very well with the whites. When they are brought in contact with a white population adapted to tropical life. and particularly to tropical city
 life, they rapidly deteriorate. It cannot be said that the improved hygienic con- dition of Havana has benefited them notably. Philadelphia Medical Journal.

long his head was turning in every d- l reetion, scanning the horizon He l would climb the short mast and remain 1 clingins there, staring out over the waste of water. One night, when we l were considering what should be done, | he suddenly shouted, A light! A light!'

 we were not to be allowed to land, but must go round to Hamilton. At Hamil- ton we were met by a similar boat and
 a like message, We must go back to

 mediately sent up a rocket, which,
 bursting high in the air, illuminated the whole place as though it were day. The
 war sessel blazed away with the guns wildly, more as warning to those act ing in concert with her than with the intention to hit us. Meanwhile we had turned round as fast as we could, and were steaming full speed to get out of the trap between the islands. We man aged to escape, but foolishly determined to try and make Savannah the next night. In so doing we ran right into the arms of a cruiser that was lying in wait, and we were captured. An officer on board the warship stated that he had been watching our boat for hours We were like moving lightship. We had on board Welsh friable coal, which de- teriorates with the weather, and every time this was shoveled on the fires great burst of flame from the dust told 4 of our exact position.

CUBA'S DEBUT.
First Session of the Congress of the
 New Republic.

First Session of the Congress of the
 New Republic.
 ] The first meeting of the Cuban con. sfess was quiet affair and may be supposed not to have been entirely 1 cheertul, in view of the lack of econom-
 lc ald from the United States which has | been so much counted upon. The time | mas already passed when, had the Gu 1 pan sugar bill become a law, it would | nave been most beneficial to the island planters. Hope of it's ultimate success Is not yet dead, but the best advantage can no longer be taken of the sugar market. The testimony of President tiaVemeyer of the Sugar Trust, howev- CT, before the committee on relations with Cuba ought to set at rest any gen. uine doubt entertained by senators as
 to the effect of an immediate reduction or the duty. Until the volume of the
 Cuban production nearly equals that of American consumption, according to
 MT Havemeyer, the full amount of duty abated or remitted, if this be promptly done, will go into the pockets of the planter. The sincerity of MT HaVemeyer's testimony can hardly be questioned. It bears internal evidence of truth, which is further attested by his pointing out himself that if the re- lief is much longer delayed 1t will fall short of it's object, for the planter who needs 1t most will then have disposed of his crop In order to liquidate his obll- gations and to meet his pressing finan- cial wants.
 No grounds remain to excuse the ma jority in failing to fulfill their implied engagement and that of the country to- ward Cuba We should like to see the gloom lifted from the Cuban govern ment before it actually enters upon it's responsible functions. At present eve rything that 1t is doing in all it's branches Is preparative. General Woods address to the congress- in which he reminded the members of this fact, was perhaps somewhat blunt sa- yoring more of military directness than of polite st atesmanship; but the cen sure by q representative to the effect that it was an attempt at dictation and indicative of bad faith could hardly have been taken seriously by any one.
 It is gratifying to observe that the men who are conspicuous in the new government are spokesmen of the high CT aspirations of the Cuban people and it Is to be hoped that there will be enough of conservative tolerance in the policy at the beginning to avoid the dangers of fierce partisan ag- itation and in particular the stimua- ton of race jealouses If comparative can come to the island at once such dangers will be the more readily prevented This consideration
 shows in stronger light than anything
