To Consider Claims.

There will be another commission
claims growing out of the revolution.
This will be composed entirely OF
American army officers recommend
ed by General Bell This does not
mean the United States will pay the
claims allowed, but the commissions
report will be sent to the next Gu
ban Congress for consideration.
Until Governor Magoon has select
ed the men to orm these commts-
sions and they have begun work, he
will not bother about appointing a
cabinet. The air Is full of reports
OF the anxiety of the exultant and ex-
pectant liberals for Office, but Cover
nor Magoon says they are behaving
like true patriots. They constantly
assert they want nothing for them
selves. but they are deluging his Of
nee with affidavits and complaints
setting for shocking depravity and
total unfitness of the moderate Off
Gals remaining In Office. These ac-
cusations will be looked into, but
no changes will be made except for
cause. Major Kean, who has charge
OF local sanitary matters, talked
about the yellow fever situation.
When asked if there was any danger
OF an epidemic he said:
We have fires here and there Is
plenty of material to burn, but we
nave to rely on the firemen to pre-
vent a confiagration 1t is thus with
ySllow fever. Havana has plenty of
serms and the number of non-im-
munes is very great.
The sanitary corps is doing its
oest to prevent an epidemic, but Ha-
tana will never be a safe city until
1t has a sewer system The best l
.an DO is to work and hope. 1t is a
nard held to cover, because there are
luily thirty thousand cesspools in
winch mosquitoes can breed. The
plumDing is very bad and pools Of
o'agnapt water abound. Every cess
pooi and trap and water hole should
oe oiled once a week. We are doing
arr well. but that gives an idea Of
snat we would have to do to make
.le city fairly safe from an cpl
demic."

C Co. Wall Street commission mer-

fifty years prominently identified

their failure, owing to a defalcation
amounting to $1,000.000 by the
firms Havana agent, Manuel Sill
veira, head of one of the largest
banking and commission houses in
Cuba.
A sensational feature Of the fail
ure is that Silyeira chartered a
steamship, the Carmelina. a Norwe-
eian cattle carrier, and sailed from
Havana on October last with
$l.000,000 in cash and property for
parts unknown On board the vessel
is Silveira's wife and family
News of the failure of j. NJ. Cebal-
los & Co., was a great surprise to the
banking and commission houses in
the financial district, where the head
Of the house, Juan NJ. Cehallos, is
known as a director in many cor
porations and was regarded as the
most aggressive merchant and bank
er in Cubau-American trade
In statement issued from the Of
fee of the banking house it was said
the liabilities would amount to be-
tween $3,OO0,OOO and $4,OO0,000.
The assets consist mainly of sugar
enterprises, plantations in Cuba and

toration of order to the United States
troops, which are being scattered
about, he is considering the steps ne
cessary to form a civil government
and put the Cuban republic on a
frmer basis.
To this end a commission will soon
be appointed to draft new elect.o
law, a municipal law and, perhaps. u
civil service law, but this is not Ger
tain. All laws passed by the Cnhap
Congress since the establishment of
the republic will be scrutinized, and,
where it is deemed wise, recon-
mended for repeal or amendment.
The commission will, as now deter
mined, consist of nine members-six
Cubans and three Americans. 1t is
likely that Colonel Crowder will be
its chairman, but the othG' members
are not decided upon.
