Havana, Sept. 7.-Gen. Menocal,
commenting on the situation in Cuba
Thursday, remarked that peace will

A report that Gen. Menocal, who is

between the government and the in

is vigorously denied by the leader of

that he does not seek the overthrow
of President Palma or the Moderate
administration, but desires solely to

NEWFOUNDLAND TROUBLE WILL
BE TAKEN UP AT DIRECTION
OF PRESIDENT.
A NEW TREATY WITH
CANADA MAY RESULT
Fisherman to Know Their Exact
Rlghts-Labor-Law Violations One
of the Questions to Be Probed on
the Spot.

Washington, Sept AT the direc-
tion OF President Roosevelt, prepare
tons are being made in three of the
executive departments for a resump.
ton of the study of the Newfoundland
fishing dispute. A. B. Alexander.
chief of the division of statistics and
methods of the bureau of fisheries for
the department of commerce and la
Dor, who spent several months sur
veylng conditions in Newfoundland
waters, has been selected again as
the agent of this government. He
VIII have the use of the naval tug Po-
tomac in making his Investigations,
and will be armed with authority from
the state department in his negotia-
tons with officials in Newfoundland.
A new treaty defining the rights of
American fishermen is the probable
outcome of Mr.. AleXand er's visit, but
OF prime Importance to the fishermen
themselves will be the instructions he
will undertake to give captains of fish
ing smacks as to their exact rights
under the existing treaty. 1t is be-
lleved at the state department that
half of the seizures of American YES
sells have been caused by ignorance
on the part of fishermen as to their
rights or their exact location at the
time seized.
Violations In Getting Labor.
While the question of getting bait
for the smacks has been one of Sc
rious concern, the real trouble has
come from violations on the part of
Americans in getting labor to man
their fishing vessels. On several oc-
casions Americans have entered New
foundland ports and there have con-
tracted for local fishermen, taking
them on board beyond the limits of
the waters patrolled by the, British.
This has resulted in the seizure of
many fishing smacks when they again
entered Newfoundland ports, and the
violation of regulations has been con-
sidered as great as though the Cana
dian fishermen actually were taken on
board within the ports. Other trou-
bles have arisen through TRAVELLING for
fish, which is not permitted in New
foundland waters yet Americans have
construed existing treaty rights as au-
thorizing them to use trawl lines.
Will Ascertain the Damage.
Mr.. Alexander will gather statistics
concerning the extent of the fisheries
and the values of the industries, MAX
ing comparisons between British and
American interests. This investiga-
ton will be for the purpose of deter
mining just what damage there has
been to the interests of both coun-
tries By reason Of the long dispute.
Chandler Anderson, who was secre-
tary of the Behring sea arbitration, is
preparing data which will be useful
in the event of negotiations for a
new treaty This information will
be given to Secretary Root. who has
arranged to take up the subject i'm.
mediately upon his return from his
South American tour.

BANKER IN OLSON'S CHARGE
sTENsLAND TURNED OVER TO
CHICAGO STATES ATTORNEY.
President Takes Hand in Bringing Fu-
gitive to Justice-May Return
on Refrigeratins Ship.

Chicago, Sept. 8.-Paul o. Stensland
is absolutely in the custody of Assist
ant States Attorney Harry Olson at
Tangier, Morocco. This information
was obtained in cablegram from Mr..
Olson, received Friday by Acting
States Attorney Barbour, as fol-
lows:
"Stensland turned over to me-"
The brevity of the dispatch leaves
much--to conjecture, but Mr.. Barbour
believes that Mr. Olson has brushed
aside all difficulties and is in posi-
ton to start for home with his prison.
er as soon as a ship is available.
The action of the United States
representatives at Tangier in turning
Stensland over to Mr.. Olson is be-
ieved to be due to the cablegram sent
from the state department at Wash
1ngton, in accordance with the in
structions of President Roosevelt.
The president wired from Oyster
Bay that he desired the department
of state to go to any necessary ex.
tent in the effort to bring Stensland to
justice, adding:
He is one of the most obnoxious
types of criminals. He robbed hun
dreds of very poor people, and is
said to have caused several sui
cides."
The present indications are that
Stensland will return to America on
the United States refrigerating ship
Glacier unless some better method of
transportation is found by Mr.. o.
son.
1t is undesirable to take the pris-
oner through any foreign country, for
fear of possible extradition entangle-
ments. The ship Glacier, if it is avail
able, will solve the problem, for this
vessel is expected to sail direct for
the United States without stopping on
the way.
