IT WAS CUBAN MONEY"

New York, June 12.--The Herald to-
morrow will quote Francis b. Thurber
as saying In reply to criticisms brought
out by his testimony before the SEN
ate committee In regard 10 the use Of
funds furnished by the military govern.
ment OF Cuba In aid OF reciprocity,
1T was Cuban money. and not that
OF the United States. The beet sugar
people are attempting to make political
capital out of what was, in my opinion,
legitimate and proper use OF Cuban
money. Everything was done openly
and no fact was hidden. When called to
Washington to testify before the COM
mittee told them the plain truth The
combination Of business men In Cuba
recommended the expenditure out Of
money paid by the Cubans IN port
taxes.
Gov. Wood acted within his author
lty In disposlng OF these funds, or a
portion of them, In the best interests
Of the island.
MIR Havemeyer's contribution came
about In this way ! was asked last
winter II our organization was not
working In the interest Of the sugar
trust ! replied that II was not, but
the question set me TO thinking that
perhaps we were working on similar
lines. then went TO Mr. Havemeyer
and asked for contribution. He gave
me $1,000. This, with the small amount
from the Cuban import taxes. has car
ried on tha work Of distributing litera-
ture, giving the people OF the Unite
states the truth about Cuba's condition
and requirements"

CHINA NEEDS SCH Is.

Those who discuss the times are, says
the shen Pao, constantly deploring the
decline Of the supply OF men OF talent
for the public service, and the increas-
ing laxity OF military preparation. The
morals of the people also are daily de-
teriorating. aud their wisdom is more
and more becoming cloudcd This sad
state Of affairs we Chinese firmly be-
lieye to be due to the decline Of educa-
ton. Open schools in every corner OF
the land. and educate the people. This
Is the soyeNgn remedy for wisdom and
morals. At first only few advanced
thinkers hel- 1s.sse views But soon
those nearest the throne adopted their
views The throne saw that the cry
for schools was becoming universal and
hence educational edicts were issued
for reformed schools
These edlcts merely revive the an
cient school system Of Chlnn.-Shang-
hal Mercury.
