Criminal Court No. this afternoon by an
encounter between Attorney John Hamil-

examination by Attorney Hamilton. When
the hearing was suspended for the noon
recess and Justice Anderson had passed

MISS STONES CLAIM.
Information Requested by the State
Department 10y

In answer to her suggestion that claim
for compensation be lodged against Turkey
in the amount of the ransom paid for her
release by the brigands. Miss Ellen Stone
has been requested to supply the Depart
ment Of State with the necessary informa-
ton upon which to frame a formal appli-

the newspaper and magazine reports OF
Miss Stones picturesque and sensational
experience in Turkey. the State Depart
ment has very little official information
upon which to proceed at this stage. and
until more is supplied 1t does not feel war
ranted in pressing the matter.

THE REPUBLIC OF CUBA
SECRETARY ROOTS CABLEaRAM
TO PRESIDENT PALMA.
Congratulating Him on the First Year
Of Independence - Minister
Quesada Enthusiastic.

Secretary Root today sent the following
cable message to President Palma OF CUBA
in recognition of the anniversary OF indie
pendence Of Cuba:
MAY 20. 1909
Thomas Estrada Palma, President of
Cuba, Havana.
accept my hearty congratulations upon
the first anniversary Of the establishment
Of the independent government of Cuba and
upon the strength and wisdom with which
you have conducted your great Office. The
year of successful administration and re-
spect for law has COMPOUNDED the enemies
of Cuba and strengthened the courage and
hope of her friends. You have my sincere
and earnest wishes for continued pros
perity.
- ..-- .ELIHU ROOT.
Secretary of War"
President Palma's Reply. ~
Subsequently Secretary Root received the
following message from President Palma:
HAVANA, May %, 1903.
Hon. Elihu Root,
Secretary of War, Washington, D. c.:
1.-The government and people Of the
United States are entitled to the everlast-
ing gratitude of the people Of Cuba. who,
midst the happiness they enjoy today. do
not forget how much they are obliged to
the American people for the share they
took in helping to gain independence and
freedom. and send to them through me
their sincerest wishes for the uninterrupted
prosperity of the great republic and the
personal welfare of President Roosevelt
and the members Of his cabinet. At the
same time send you and family the warm
est testimony of my sincere friendship.
'"T. ESTRADA PALMA"
Minister Quesada Enthusiastic.
Senior Quesada, minister from Cuba, Is
very enthusiastic over what has been &C
complished by the independent government
during the year. and especially because all
the predictions Of disaster have failed OF
realization.
I'm the year that Cuba has been under a
government of her own" said the minister,
there have been no disorders. no scandals
and a prosperity which shows an honest,
capable and efficient administration. II
shows that Cuba has been able to do what
she promised and take her place among the
nations of the EARTH When the United
States turned the island over one year ago
there were about half million dollars In
the treasury; now there are three millions
surplus, with all debts and expenses paid.
While this surplus has been increasing
schools have been maintained and educa-
tional facilities have been increased; SAM
tation has been kept up and provision MADE
for improvements Of many kinds. The GOOD
order maintained in the island has been OF
great advantage in the matter Of encourage
ing American capital to go into the Island,
build railroads and develop its industries.
One thing of which very little Is known is
the establishment of large hotels at difrer-
ent places which will make Cuba one OF
the great winter resorts of the world. The
year has been most gratifying to Cubans
and all who are interested in her continued
prosperity and welfare"
