Washington, D. c. (SpeciaD .-Ad-
vices received by the State Department
confirm the report of the department
of President Morales from Santo Do
mingo City, and the fact that ii was the
intention of the Dominican Cabinet,
which now controls the situation, to in
duct into the Presidential office General
Caceres, the Vice President The dis
patch received by the State Department
said that President Morales was now
about IS miles west of Santo Domingo
City fighting the troops of the Cabinet
The Dominican Minister to the United
States, Mr.. Jaubert, was an early caller
at the State Department and conferred
with Secretary of State Root on the
affairs of Santo Domingo. Mr.. Jau-
bert showed Secretary Root cablegram
received by him from Senior Tejera, the
Dominican Minister for Foreign Affairs,
stating that General Caceres was ex-
pected to arrive at Santo Domingo City
and would Immediately be proclaimed
President of the little black republic
He stated that he had heard nothing in
dicating that President Morales had been
wounded.
Mr.. Jaubert was inclined to doubt very
much whether President Morales would
attempt to organize an army for the
purpose of fighting the troops of the
new Government party, directed by the
Cabinet, as he must himself realize the
futility of any attempt of that kind. 1t
was also the opinion of the Minister that
the departure of Morales from Santo
Domingo City and the consequent change
in the executive branch of the Govern
ment would not in any way affect the
existing agreement between Santo Do
mingo and the United States, which pro-
vides that Dominican customs revenues
shall be collected by Americans appoint
ed by the Dominican President for that
purpose. The Cabinet of Santo Do
mingo and General Caceres are COM
mitted to the existing arrangement and
are not likely, it is thought, to disturb
it.
The outbreak will cause no change in
the plans of the Navy Department to
reduce the naval force of the United
States in the waters of Santo Domingo.
The third division of the North Atlantic
feet, consisting of the Brooklyn and the
protected cruisers Chattanooga, Taco
ma and Galveston which have been doing
duty during the past summer in Domi-
nican waters, is to sail Immediately for
European waters. 1t is held at the State
Department that the internal troubles
of Santo Domingo are at present none OF
our affair, and as long as thre is no
disturbance of the rights and properties
of A,oar;car citizens the DOrllnlcanS Will
be left alone to fight out their troubles.
Admiral Sigsbee's feet will sail for the
Azores, where it will receive further or
ders from the Navy Department. 1t was
admitted at the State Department that it
was likely that some of the ships of this
squadron would be used for service in
the Baltic to look out for American in
terests in that section of the world.

Schwartz Brothers, at 1868 Broadway, in
the heart of the "Tenderloin" district,

The Use OF Asbestos

SAYS the Mining Reporter, among
the various uses to which asbestos
has been put since its discovery, none
has appealed to the manufacturer
more than the use of the mineral in
construction work. Ii has many
properties which make it readily ac.
ceptable as a iirepro16ng material
aud as resistent to other physical
and chemical actions.
The various asbestos boards on the
market are quite similar IN their con-
struction and composition. They are
usually composed of p per cent
asbestos and - per cent Portland
cement, the ingredients being
thoroughly mixed together and sub
mitted in sheets to a pressure of
about 81 tons per square foot Mag
nesia board or sheathing is prepared
by permeating the asbestos mill
board with solution silicate Of soda
and bicarbonate of magnesia, the
the water being subsequently,
removed by subjecting the mill
board to pressure.
