ent, appeareA and offered new propo-. sitlon, namely. the resignation of the senators and congressman chosen at the last elections new elections to fill these vacancies, the acceptance of President Paama's resignation and the getting together on a new president, who should, Nhey stipulated, be either a liberal or ah independent. Senator. Zayas asserted that Secretaries Taft and Bacon had approved this proposi- tion, but the assembly was not willing to consider it without consulting the American commissioners. A committee was therefore dispatched to consult with the Americans. It consisted of Senor Dolz, president of the senate; General Nunez, governor of Havana province; Senators Frlas and Fonts y Sterling and Congressman Govin. Sec retary Taft told this committee that he had at first approved the suggestion of Senor Zayas, provided that both parties felt it would bring peace, but on further consideration he had decid- ed that If it became necessary to create a provisional government the only safe plan was that this be done by an act of the United States. The committee | questioned what the attitude of the commissioners would be If congress elected q constitutional president. Sec $etary Taft replied that such a course would enlbarrass the commissioners greatly, as they felt that any other man than Palma would not be satis- factory to all, including the United States. Therefore unless President Palma continued in office, intervention seemed the only alternative When the committee reported to the moderate assembly it resulted in im- mediate expressions that nothing re- mained but intervention After a long discussion, however, 1t was resolved to attend congress and refue to accept the presidents resignation Beyond this no one would make prediction, and there was but faint hope of finding q way for the preservation of Cuba's sov- ereIgnty, The assembly dissolved amid a general feeling of depression.
 All doubts as to the loyalty of the rural guards to the American govern ment In case of intervention have been set at rest by the declarations of off, cers that they would support Taft government with enthusiasm, One of- ficer said
 The American government appoint ed us If it sees fit again to take over Cuba temporarily why should we not be loyal to it. We are soldiers, not poll-
 ticians, and our duty is to support the
 established government"
 Thirteen hundred volunteers whc
 were recently brought here from Ma
 tanzas to help protect Havana were
 ordered to return to Matanzas by
 General Rodriguez tonight.

 the water works tonight on account
 of rumors that the rebels intended tc

COFFEE WAS IT
PeopIe Slowly Learn the Facts.

"All my life I have been such a slave to coffee that the very aroma of it was enough to set my nerves qulvering
 1 kept gradually losing my health but l used to say nonsense it don't hurt me. Slowly I was forced to admit the truth and the final result was that my whole nervous force was shattered.
 My heart became weak and uncer- tain in it's action and that frightened me. Finally my physician told me about a year ago, that I must stop drinking coffee or could not expect to be well again.
 T was in despair for the very thought of the medicines I had tried so many times nauseated me. Of course I thought of Postum but could hardly bring myself to give up coffee. Finally I concluded that l owed it to myself to give Postum a trial. So l got a package and carefully followed the directions, and what a delicious, nourishing, rich drink it was. Do you know l found it very easy to shift from the coffee to Postum and not mind the change at all. Almost Immediately af- ter I made the change I found myself better and as the days wentby kept on improving. My nerves grew sound and steady, slept well and felt strong and well balanced all the time. Now I am completely cured, with the old nervous ness and sickness all gone. In every way I am well once more" Name giv- en by Postum Co.,. Battle Creek, Mich

SURPLUS SUGAR.
Germany Has Trouble in Finding :
 Market for Hers.

Germany Has Trouble in Finding a
 Market for Hers.
 The greatest trouble which Germany encounters Is in finding a market for her surplus sugar. The United States Is the greatest market for sugar in the world, yet our tariff of more than one hundred per cent. on refined sugar while not shutting out Germany, re- duces the profit on sugar production to a point that disturbs the producers across the Atlantic, To get q market in the United States for her sugar is the aim of Germany. MT. Eugene N. Foss, a brother of Representative Foss, of Illinois, man who has been one of the strongest advocates of reciprocity In this country, is convinced that in time trade arrangement Will have to be made with Germaily in order that the United States may market its meat and other farm products in that coun- try. He Is convinced that Germany will take advantage of every circum- stance to close her doors against American made goods and American products until the United States grants concessions in the matter of reduction l of the duty on sugar Germany MT, Toss regards as a wonderful country, well equipped and thoroughly organ | ized for the trade contest she is mak- ing. He points out that of the sixty million people of Germany only fifty thousand came to this country last year indicating that the Germans are well satisfied with the fatherland. Germany, he says, has gone about ac- auirlng the markets of the world In a scientific as well as a systematic man. ner By her tariff laws she has or will make 1t impossible for othernations to sell their goods in Germany unless markets are open upon some terms of equality to German goods. There was a threatened break between the Uni ted States and Germany last March, but it was tided over for year, and during that time the diplomatic officers of the two nations are expected to TX things up We remember that Germa- lny's threat to put her tariff into effect was met by the introduction of a bill in congress which would have raised the duties on German goods twenty five per cent. above that paid by other nations.
 But a new equation has developed in the recent meat packing disclosures and Germany can make use Of them to shut out American meat products and possibly force the United States to bet
 ter terms regarding the tariff on Ger
 man goods. of YOU would allow us to sell our sugar in America" 2" said Ger mans to Mir. Foss, when he was re- gently in that country, I've would

Board of Finance Unable to Come to
 Any Decisiop.
 After having been in session from 7:9O D. m. to almost Ii D. m. last night the board of finance announced that it had taken no action on the claims of Patrolmen Landy and Fallon and Gen. eral Registrar Foley. All three claims were laid on the table and no time set for further consideration. The outlook for the settlement of the claims seem very dark, Only two members of the board were absent, but five names in approval of the claims could not be obtained
 Commissioners of Police L. NJ Ull- man and J. c. Kelley were before the board in support of Officer Landy's claim. Arthur V. Phillips. clerk of the police board, was also present and furnished the board with information regarding Officer Landy's record. Com missioner UTllman said that in his opin- ion the board would be making a mis- take if it refused to pay Officer Lan- dy's claim. He held that it was an ex- cellent opportunity for the board to back the police department and to en- courage the officers in the performance of their duties. He said that an officer could not afford to run the risk of civil suits on s per day and that the failure to pay the claim might encourage negli- gence of duty He said the record of Officer Landy was excellent.

though it is the general practice to sell
 cheaper abroad than. at home. And
 cattle are very low in price, with the
 prospect of greater reductions. Of course nothing can be said against our
 wheat and flour, yet it would naturally
 suffer in the closing of German mar
 cts.
 Mir. Foss while abroad also gathered |some additional and very interesting
 information regarding conditions in
 England. In the first place, there is no country in the world that treats the
 United States as well as England does.
 She takes thirty-seven per cent. of our
 foreign exports and charges scarcely nothing in the way of duty All the staples are admitted free of duty. Of course. other countries have like &C.,
 cess to her markets, but England does not take as much from other countries as from the United states. Resides, other foreign countries charge a heavy
 duty. MT. Floss says that the ideas of Chamberlain are bound to prevail in time, Although this statesman was ap-
 parently overwhelmingly defeated in the last elections, he really had forty- five per cent. of the vote with him.
 Then there is Il growing sentiment in favor of enlarging the trade with the colonies. Engishmen are beginning to
 realize that by favoring the colonies in
 the matter of trade they will establish
 closer relations with them; that the tariff can be made to encourage trade
 between the mother country and her colonies in every part of the world. Another reason why MT. Floss believes
 that England will come over to the Chamberlain idea is because she can- not etand between two great productive and high tariff nations like the United States and Germany. Her people can
 not sell in these countries on the same terms as those countries sell in Great Britain. Mir. Foss thinks that 1t is only
 question of time when England will force reciprocity arrangements with
 other countries by making advanta- geous terms with her colonies. Wash ington Star.
