Free Cheese Cloth for Cuba.

Washington, August 21.-ln a report
made public at the state department to-
day United States Minister Squires at
Havana calls attention TO az Interesting
change in the Cuban tariff law, which
admits cheese cloth into the island free
of duty in order to promote what is
known as the covered cultivation" OF
tobacco.
Important agricultural interests OF
Cuba have for sometime urged that the
step should be taken. and President
Estrada Palma ia his message to the
Cuban congress strongly recommended
the exemption of cheese cloth from the
payment Of import duties. "Covering"
tobacco consists in placing the cheese
cloth at certain height in the form OF
an awning over the plants to moderate
the intensity Of the suns rays, prevent
the wind from swaying and breaking the
leaves, and most important OF all, to
guard against insect attacks. The sys
tenn has been tried with success in Su-
matra.
The duty on cheese cloth was from 15
to so cents per kiiogram-aoout . 1-5
pounds-and the amount imported has
been approximately $4,000 worth per
aunum, little more than one half bein Q

He was doing his regular work when

ig together. He did not take much no.
tice of the men as he was busy. Mr.
Sieber and Harris rode past him. AS
he glanced up from his work he saw
hat Harris had gun stuck 10 the right
hand pocket OF his overalls, his hand
resting on the handle of the gun.
They parted near bunch OF cattle.
Mr. Sieber rode to where Emery Knowles

and riding back passed where Dunniug
was at work said to him, "Harris pulled
gun on me-" rode on. He WAS carrying
the gun he had obtained from Knowles
crosswise over the front OF the saddle
Whom last noticed by Dunning he had
the gun carrying it in his right hand at
the side Of the saddle He was riding
hardly faster than walk. When he
passed Dunning Harris came toward
him and when they got as close as two
men on horseback could get, Harris yell
ed to MIR, Sieber, drop it, drop it," and
commenced firing at once.

it, drop it," OF course meaning the gun,
