being told that the officer was In at roll
call he invaded the coat room and picked
pair of gloves and thirteen car
tickets from the pocket Of Detective
Weldon When roll call was over the
stranger stalked into the inspectors Of
fee and finding that mis- party was not at
work, started to walk right out again.
In the meanwhile Weldon put or his
coat and found a pair of gloves in his
pocket which did not at all resemble his
own Detective McNamee about the
same time. discovered that his gloves
were missing. and Immediately claimed
those found in Weedon's pockets. The
mystery deepened and as the stranger
was about TO make his exit. he was &C
costed by the detective and asked wheth-
er he had any knowledge of the gloves,
and, incidentally the car tickets He
appeared surprised that he should be in
terrogated in the matter, and did not
hesitate to express his opinion that gem
tlemen were becoming a scarcity in the
police department.
Notwithstanding his assertions. Detec-
tive Weldon believed that it was worth
while to search the stranger, and the
gloves and car tickets were found in one
of his inside pockets. The man gave
his name as Thomas Callahan, and his

IS DISSATISFIED With CUBA
Administration Worried by Slow
Progress on Island.
Gov. MagOOn May BE Sent to Philip
ptnes-NO Truth In the Report OF
japanese Trouble.

Conditions in Cuba are not entirely
satisfactory to the administration. and
the progress made by the provisional
government is rather slow. The first
active service Of the American troops
in Cuba is now being had by several
troops of calvary in the province OF
Santa Clara. The troops were ordered
out by Brig. Gen. Bell, commanding the
Army Of Cuban Pacifcation. upon re-
eeipt OF information OF trouble in Santa
Clara. Santa Clara is the most trouble
some province in the republic. There
have been numerous cases Of Pillag-
ing reported. but whether by mere
marauders or real insurrectos, has not
been shown. At all events. Gen. Bell
viii have the province thoroughly
cleaned out by the American soldiers.
1t had been hoped that the Cuban
rural police would be sufficient to deal
with any disturbance which might
arise, but II appears that the situation
In Santa Clara has rather got the best
Of the native military forces.
There is a possibility that Gov.
MagOoh Will be taken away from Cuba
before long and sent TO the Philippines
to become vice governor there The
President is having a great deal OF
difficulty IN finding a man for the place
originally intended for Gov. Magoon.
man is needed who is not only able
TO deal with financial problems, but
who is also a lawyer and has executive
ability. The situation in the Philippines
is such that the place must be filled
very soon, and if Cuba Gains down IL
/ IS quite likely that Gov. MagOon viii
be relieved there and sent 10 Manila.
There has been nothing received
here to indicate that any Japanese have
been implicated in fOmenting a revo-
luton in Cuba. Officials are certain
the report is without foundation. They
point 10 the fact that there are only
eight japanese in Cuba. and these are
pretty well scattered around the island.
