MARTIAL LAW IN CUBA.
President Palma Issues Proclamation
and Arrests Rebels.

Havana, Cuba -Concluding the
safety of his Government hinged on
prompt action, President Palma put
the entire Republic under martial
law, and in SO doing made himself
personally responsible for the main
tenance of order. All constitutional
guarantees were suspended by a spe-
cial decree issued by the President,
and in the same instrument he re-
voked all the offers of amnesty with
which the Government had sought to
placate the Liberals. Nor did Presi-
dent Palma stop there. He impaired
to his step all the Importance of
stroke Of state by causing the arrests
Of many Liberal leaders.

position were seized in their homes,
in cafes. in clubs and theatres. No
reason for their seizure was given,

for the safety of the Government. Alg

ling world has been longing for these
many days There are big strong teeth
to the fine remover, big and sensible
enough to take hold Of and pull OF the
spiked fin Of the biggest bliss.
