CONGRESS WILL
NEVER CONSENT
Secretary Hay Finds Out About
the Cuban Rebate.
CONFERENCE ON The TREATY
CUBA IS NOT SATISFIED WITH
TWENTY PER CENT.

tvr ASHINGTON, Nov 12.-An i'm
w portant conference bearing on the
subject OF Cuban reciprocity was
held at the war department today. the
participants being Secretaries Hay and
Root and General Lasker Bliss. The
latter was called into the conference at
Secretary Hays suggestion because Of
his expert knowledge OF the existing
Cuban tariff Before the conference at
the war department Secretary Hay had
talked on this subject with Senator
Cullom, chairman of the senate COM
mittee on foreign relations. and also
with Senior Quesada, the Cuban minis
ter here. Senior Quesada was not able
to submit 70 Secretary Hay the draft of
the reciprocity treaty which has been
under consideration so long by the au-
thorities at Havana, as the documents
have not yet left that place.
mi-officially the United States gov
eminent continues in ignorance of the
extent and character of the changes, if
any, which President Palma may det
Sire to make in the treaty.
In other than Official sources. how
ever, has developed pretty clearly the
disposition of the Cuban president in
this matter The cardinal objection OF
!
stands is the insufficient rebate of 20
per cent proposed to be allowed on Gu
ban imports into the United States, and
Secretary Hays purpose is to ascertain
if possible, how far he can yield in that
! matter and still be able to rely upon
the support of congress next session
when the treaty is submitted. So far
his advices do not favor any Increase
of the rebates and, indeed, he has been
assured by some persons with whom he
has talked that under no conditions
would congress consent to any Substan-
tial increase of this rebate.
It is understood that the Cubans, too,
are entirely unwilling to accept any
small increase. In the face of a great
shortage in the European crop and d
rapidly rising market, they have at
get along for an Indefinite perIUd Of
time without reciprocity with the
/ United States, and so it is understood
they are showing an Indifference in the
prosecution of the treaty negotiations,
which is serving in turn to stimulate
the efforts of our own negotiaro-s.
President Palma makes the point that
conditions have changed in Cuba, so
that whereas the 20 per cent rebate
might have served when it was pro-
posed, it would at present afford so
/ little relief as not to warrant the sacri-
! flee of Cuban revenues that would be
/ involved in its acceptance. Secretary
Hay has determined to clear up that
point, and to that end, after talking
with Secretary Root today 1t was decid-
ed that General Bliss should be sent at
once to Cuba to make a personal in
vestigation of the industrial situation
and the fiscal possibilities of the island.
| So it is improbable that pending his re-
turn from his Cuban visit the state
| department can advance the treaty ne
! gotiations in any way.

workers union was made public today.
In response 10 the demand for an in
crease in wages they say that the pres
ent wages are such as to enable the skill
tul miner to earn more per hour than
any class of labor, skilled or unskllleo,
in the towns in which their mines are To-
Gated and sufficient to allow him TO
maintain an American standard of living
and educate his children. and to lay aside
something for his old age That some
miners wages are small, it is stated, IS
because they choose to exercise their op-
ton to work only few hours day.
In answering the contention that MIN
ing is extremely dangerous and unhealthy
and tends TO shorten life. the operators
set forth a petition recently circulated In
the interest of a candidate for mine IN
spector which contained the names of
ninety-five- employees of one mine. sixty
six of whom had worked in the mine Tor
twenty. years or more, twenty for forty
years or more and five for fifty years
The demand for the weighing of coal
and payment by the legal ton of 2,24O
pounds instead of by the fictitious ton
of 27J0 or 5000 pounds is characterized as
a thinly disguised effort to secure 40
per cett increase in wages.
The answer asserts that 2150 pounds
of coal as it comes from the mine is
barely sufficient to produce a 2,240-pound
ton of prepared coal
Regarding the declaration of the miners
that labor unions improve the morals and
discipline of their members, this comment
is made:
This may be true when applied to
some organizations, but when applied to
the miners union we enter a most en-
phatic denial, and propose to introduce
evidence showing that prior to the advent
of the United Mine Workers of America
ii was considered bad form to Kill or MAIN
a citizen who attempts to exercise his
constitutional rights to sell his labor and
that the vast number of brutal murders
and beatings during the past five months
show that the teachings of the United
Mine Workers have brought about such
moral obliquity that its members believe
themselves justified in these acts; also
that officers of the union justified this
course by furnishing bail and counsel for
those who have been guilty of these
atrocious acts.
1--WE believe that we will be able to
prove such tremendous losses of life and
money as the direct results of the meth
DDS OF this particular union as TO con-
vince your honorable committee that II IS
inexpedient to do any act which may con-
tribute to it's continued existence

Samuel NJ. Lindsay, commissioner of
education in Porto Rico, and formerly

last night from Ponce. He comes to
this country TO submit his report to

family back with him TO Porto Rico.
He spoke with enthusiasm of the edu-

said:

Quoted in every district reflects credit
upon the people of Porto Rico. This
was the first real contest, because two
years ago, when the first election for
delegate to Washington and a house
of delegates in the insular legislature
was held, only one party went to the
polls. This time both Republicans and
Federals voted in nearly all the pre-
cincts, and the Federal party made
good showing. The present Republi-
can delegate to Washington, Frederick
de Geteau, was reelected by a large
majority
Professor Lindsay says reports of
riot and bloodshed iD Porto Rico were
much exaggerated.
'-On the first registration day, Oct.
A. he said. there was much excite

at no time was there any danger of
