Question of Reciprocity as Regards
Concessions Demanded and Of
fered Hard to Decide.

Washington, Nov. 17.-Before Secre-
tary Root left for New York Saturday
he had long conference on the SUBJ
ject of Cuba with Secretary Hay. Re-
ports from Cuba are to the effect that
the Cubans are divided on the ques-
ton of reciprocity, especially as re-
CARDS the concessions demanded and
offered. The Cuban senate is report
ed to be favorable to the treaty as Of
fered with few minor changes, and
there is no doubt expressed that the
senate will accept the treaty when ii
is amended by Gen: Bliss, who has gone
to Havana. There is trouble in
Cuban house, which seems to be in
clined to act independently of the
United States.
Gen. Bliss will present definite prop
sositions from this government. He
will state the extreme concessions
which the United States will grant,
which is 20 per cent. on Cuban prod
ucts, and also will give the Cubans the
lowest possible rates of concessions
which this country will demand of
Cuba. 1t is expected that Gen. Bliss
will endeayor to close up the negotia-
tions speedily and that after his prop
ositions are made but a very short
time will he allowed the Cubans to
reply before the negotiations will ter
inmate. The opinion of the depart.
ment is that there has been too much
representation and that the Cubans
must be given to understand that de.
lays will not be acceptable to this

that those fred were equally harm

Guilty in rescuing him from the hands
of the crowd. He gave his name. as
Rubino, and his occupation as book
keeper. He was born at Binardo,
near Naples, in 1859, and has lately
lived in Brussels.
Wanted Him Killed.
When rescued from the mob Ru-
bino was placed in a cab and in
furiated crowds of people immediate
ly surrounded it and attacked the
vehicle with knives and sticks. The
police had great difficulty in forcing
way to the police station through
the crowd, which shouted alternate
~: Kill him" and "Long live, the
king" 2
Came to XIII.
1t is reported that Rubino had
been heard to express anarchist opin-
lens, and it was also said that he
came to Brussels from London ex-
pressly to kill King Leopold and
went to the cathedral for this pur-
pose, but refrained from shooting at
the king for fear of killing soldiers
who stood between him and his
majesty.
Grenf Excitement. -.
The news of the outrage spread
rapidly throughout the city and the
greatest excitement prevailed. The
people thronged the streets, eagerly
discussing the attempt on the life
of the king, and large crowds gath
cred in front of the various bulletin
boards.
King Leopold appeared to be quite
unmoved by the attempt of Rubino
to kill him. After luncheon at the
palace his majesty entered a motor
car and proceeded to the railroad
station, where he boarded a train
bound for Groenendael.
