which the rebels laid down their arms
surprised the government. A number
Of marines had been sent to Cienfuegos
to preserve order pending the arrival
Of the government commissioners.
1t was decided that for the present
at least no more than $500 troops
would be sent. The president ordered
Brigader General J. Franklin Bell

sible to Secretary Taft at Havana
General Funston was placed in com

President Palma left the palace at
Havana Oct. 2 and, declining the mill
tary escort offered by Governor Taft
went with his family by train to Ma
tanzas There was no public demon
stration on his departure. Subsequent
ly Governor Taft took up his quarters
in th- executive residence thus vacated
and continued the administration Of af-
fairs under the existing Cuban officials
and constitution without recourse to
military decrees.' The discovery of sew
eral cases of yellow fever at Havana
caused considerable alarm. Rigid quar-

taken, the tenement districts being

Is suggested. The fact remains that
the Atlanta mobs did not kill one Of
the perpetrators Of the alleged crimes.
and most of those who were killed
were colored men Of good reputation.
The commercial aspect of the riots.
was driven home quickly, for the col
ored workmen stayed at home or left
the city in large numbers. Factories
were shut down and many commercial
houses were seriously handicapped.
Thus it brought a realization of the
large part the negro is now playing in
southern industries. 1t was noticeable.
however, that the mobs were composed
almost entirely of working class
whites, notwithstanding that it is GUS
tomary for white and black artisan
laborers to work side by side. The
cause Of this is conscious or uncon-
scious trade jealousy. Another result
Of the trouble was the complete shut
ting up Of drinking places, the object
being to prevent the sale Of liquor to
all negroes New licenses will be is
sued only to white men, who will not
sell to colored men.

President Roosevelt, accompanied by
Mrs. Roosevelt, Ethel Roosevelt and
his two sons Archibald and Quentin
and the executive staff, returned to

Secretary Roots Return.

lily, accompanied by Minister Barrett
Of Colombia, landed at the Washing

brought the party from the steamship
Columbia at the north Of the Potomac
the Columbia having brought them
from Colon. The cruise thus ended
was begun from New York July 2,
when the party sailed on the cruiser
Charleston The secretary believes
that he succeeded in the task Of dis
pelling the idea in South America that
the United States has territorial or
other ambitions in that continent.
This suspicion was found to have
grown up in Latin America in connec-
ton with the Monroe doctrine.
Magoon Against Cody Labor.
Charles E. Magoon, the retiring gov
ernor of the Panama canal zone, on his
arrival at New York voiced his con-
rlusion that Chinese labor is unsuitable
for the canal work. He says that the
principal reason is that our government
would not countenance peonage, to
which contractors would have to resort
ID get anything like effective work out
~ the Chinese laborers. He says that
they will not do any more than they
have to. and when they save up little
money they quit work without warn
ing. In Magoon's opinion the West
Indian negro furnishes the best solu-
lion of the canal labor problem.
Palma Took Initiative.
The official correspondence between
the state department and Consul Gen
s.ral Steinhardt at Havana Immediate
iy preceding American Intervention in
'uba was made public. It Is apparent
from these dispatches that Palma urg-
ri American troops for the protection

was at his express request that war
Lhips were first sent to Havana.

dent Roosevelt told his advisers that
he was still in favor of restoring the
government Of Cuba to the Cuoans Just

tablished federal elections held and the
new officers of the republic installed.

not want to annex Cuba, and in his
opinion the American occupation would
not last more than few months The
presi, EFT assumes full responsibility
for all that has been done at Havana
by Taft and Bacon. He also made it

the new Pennsylvania state capitol

Roosevelt advocated the control Of
great corporate wealth. explaining that
what he wanted to do was the anti
dote for socialism, and he evidently
referred to Bryan's programme when
he said that federal supervision Of
railroads would prevent government
ownership. Before the ceremonies the
president was shown through the build
ing, about the cost Of which great
scandal has been raised, and said he
was greatly impressed with the beauty
Of the interior. Former Governor
Stone, as president Of the building
commissioners, turned the structure
over to Governor Pennypacker, hand
ing him key to the building made of
solid gold The president made no ref
