Washington, Sept. 2l.-The true
condition Of affairs in Cuba has been
made known through government ad-
vices received here of the most au-
thentic origin, These positively as
ser that the present insurrection can
last indefinitely because Of the fact
that neither the insurgents nor the
government is able to overthrow the
other. All business interests, it is
said I ODE suffering from the war.
Insurgents are opposed to interven-
tion, as they want offices and graft
which intervention would not bring.
Trade is dead. Six weeks more of the
present state of affairs. il is said, will
mean the ruin Of the tobacco crop and
immense loss in the next sugar crop.
According to the information re-
ceved here, the instructors are with
out any military organization, they
operating in gangs, which, it is stated,
is the best way for their purposes and
for the end they have in view. They
practically are without money and
obtain subsistence off the country,
where great majority of the peo-
ple sympathize with them. No per-
manent interests, il is stated, are sup
plying them with money.
The extent to which the insurrec-
tion las gained ground is shown when
il is asserted tat the insurgent forces
far outnumber those Of the govern
ment, are of better fighting quality
but that the later are better armed
and equipped.
The situation has assumed such an
aspect that foreigners have advised
their governments of the extent of
lamages suffered by them, par.
Iarly the English and German
citizens.

ment has been reduced in meeting

The city was thrown into high
pitch of excitement last night by
the publication in an evening paper
of story that oil would soon 90 to
sixty cents a barrel. The story or
iginated probably from the announce
ment that the Prairie people would
soon. begin the shipment of 1000 bar
relS of oil from this district to Texas.
and that the shipments would prob
ably be materially increased from
time to time. II has been known foi
fifteen days that representatives
from Texas refineries were in the
city. negotiating with local produc-
ers for oil. Ii was planned to take
the oil to Texas, subtract by the
process of refining, all the volatile
substance and sell the residuum to the
railroads for use as fuel oil.
There was a meeting yesterday at
Muskogee of the producers of this
section and the representatives of the
Texas interests. That anything def
mite was done could not be verified
j. S. Eldridge, manager of the
Greek Oil company, stated that in his
opinion. there would be little if any
advance in oil. lie said that at the
Muskogee meeting which he attend
ed. there was no agreement reached
between the producers and the Tex.
as people. He said that he thought
the rumors more or less hot air.
Other operators were more or less
optimistic. One stated that tho

fields, and if pipe lines to Texas are

Texas and Oklahoma, now that the

very likely to develope some extensive
plans very quickly.

THINKS THE PACKERS
PLAN CONSOLIDATION
Prolonged Stay of Sir Thomas Upton
Is Said to Be Connected
With1Bie Deal.

Chicago, October 2O.-'rhe Evening Post
today prints a story to the effect that
gigantic combination of packing indus
tries in this country is underway. No
person connected in an official capacity
at any of the large Chicago packing
houses could be found who would con-
firm the story.
The story is to the effect that the COM
binatlon is to have an aggregate capital
of $500, 100000, and to be controlled from
England. 1t is declared that the Armour
interests are to dominate the consolida-
ton, and that 1t will include the follow
Ing concerns in this city:
Armour Packing company, Swift and
company, Nelson Morris and company,
National Packing company, Schwarzs-
child and Sulzberger. and the Cudahy
Packing company.
According to the Post the prolonged
stay Of Sir Thomas Upton in this coun-
try is connected with the alleged con-
soldation.
When asked tonight regarding the ANAL
gamation of the packing interests Mr..
Ogden Armour said:
al know nothing whatever about such
a proposition. In fact, this is the first
that / have heard about it,"
Louis s. Swift of Swift an deompany
also emphatically denied that there was
any foundation for such a report.

birth rate Is higher and the death rate
Is lower AS usual, the death rate from
accidents and other forms of violence is

tuberculosis is very much lower than for
September, 1905
During the heavy rains that occurred
In September a great deal Of trouble was
experienced with our sanitary sewers,
especially those on the Southside OF the
city From time to time attention mas
been called to the fact that these sewers
along the lower portions of the city over
flow whenever we have much rain. This
is self-evident proof that the construction
of these sewers is faulty This state of
affairs can not be tolerated in city that
makes any pretentons at sanitary I'M
provements 1t is fairly SAFE to assume
that our sewage is frequently contami-
mated with typhoid bacilli When tfE>
sewage escapes on to the surface or dlr
streets and alleys, when 1t is carried away
in open bitches through pastures in which
dairy cattle run at large there Is GER

would urge that whatever measures are
necessary to secure the perfecting of our
sanitary sewer system be at once set in
motion and prosecuted with the utmost
vigor until we have a system of sanitary
sewers commensurate with the needs of
our city.

BRYAN SPEAKS AS
DENVER SNOW FALLS
HAS TO HURRY AWAY TO INDIAN
APOLlS, WHERE HE is TO SPEAK
MoNDAY-TALKs ON LOCAL AZ
FAIRS.

Denver. Col. October 2O.-William j.
Bryan was compelled to abandon his
arrangements to speak in Denver tonight
because of an engagement to speak at
Indianapolis Monday, which required that
he should leave Denver this evening.
He made an address to 1000 people at
the union station, however, while waiting
for his train. While he was speaking
snow fell steadily.
Mr.. Bryan approved OF the action of
the Colorado democratic convention in
unseating the Speer delegation from the
city and county of Denver, admitting that
the unseating of a regular delegation
was unquestionably radical, but con-
tending that some times 1t became nee
essary because of the influences which
sought to control the organization. He
declared that the great issue before the
people now was whether the people
should rule the country or corporations
should be given the rein.
