Will Send Taft to Cuba to Make IN
vestiqaton of Conditions.

Oyster Bay-After a protracted
conference with Secretary OF War
Taft, Acting Secretary Of State Bacon
and Secretary of the Navy Bonaparte,
President Roosevelt has addressed an
important communication to Cuba,
and arranged to send Secretary Taft
and Bacon to that island to make a
thorough investigation Of conditions
there and lend their influence to re-
store peace.
The communication is addressed to
the Cuban minister to the United
States, Senior Quesada. 1t Is an i'm
passioned plea to Cuba to realize her
responsibilities as self-governing re-
public, and to restore peace in the
island. Her attention is called in no
uncertain language to the responsible
ity which the United States bears to
the island and the certainty that our
responsibility will necessarily be ex-
ercised could peace not be preserved.
The president says he has certain in
formation that the peace of the is.
land is now menaced and that Amer
lean property has been destroyed.

the Spiritualistic medium, was fond
guilty of committing battery upon the
person of aged Mrs Mary Brandon on
the afternoon of the Sth of this

don and her son-in-law, w. H. Dye,
showed that they had visited the es-
Establishment of Arnold and his part
ner. James Dickson, at 269 East Third
South street, for the purpose of ex-,
posing what they had been led to be-
heve was rank fraud; that Dickson
was giving them sitting" in a dark
ened room when the old lady lay hold
upon the flowing drapery of one of
the bogus spirits which the medium"
mad called forth; that the spirit had
proved to be flesh and blood being
OF much strength and agility; that a
struggle had ensued. the lady irving
hard to maintain her hold on the robe
OF the spirit and the latter seeking TO
make its escape.
In the midst of this struggle Mrs
Brandon received a heavy blow In the

FOR PEACE IN ISLANDS
This Cuban Government Has Been
Thoroughly Aroused by Prospects
Of American Intervention.

Havana The government is max
ing final strenuous efforts to restore
peace In Cuba and thus avoid any kind
OF American Intervention. The object
OF these endeayors, 1t Is said, Is that
IL may be able to say By the time Sec
Rotary OF War Taft end Acting Secre-
tary OF State Bacon arrived that peace
has already resulted; that therefore
there is no need for American inter
vcntion, either 10 restore peace or to
insure perma sent tranquility.
II Is claimed that they are making
the efforts In accordance with the adj
vice contained ia President Rooseyelts
letter. that they have no objection to
the friendly assistance OF the United
States In the matter IL Ii becomes nee
essary, but that they believe they can
settle 1t between the government and
reyoiutionists without the necessity OF
any Intervention. At least. they say,
they are making an attempt 10 accom-
plish their end unaided, and with fair
prospects of success.
