TAFT IS NOW
CUBA'S GOVERNOR
United States Will Now Crush
Rebellion on the
Island
CALLS FOR U. S. TROOPS

BY Our own Wire. Publishers Press.
HAVANA, Sept. 29.-The first Cuban
Republic is dead Failing utterly in all
efforts to reconcile the warning factions
in the infan. republic, Secretary OF War
William II. Taft. acting as special COM
missioner from President Roosevelt, to-
day declared himself provisional military
governor. The United States forces will
now stamp out the present trouble and
the work Of reorganizing the Cuban
Government will at once begin.
The proclamation containing the Of
ficial announcement of Secretary Tar.
of the takig Of the Cuban Government un-
der the wing of Uncle Sam is published
to-day in the Official Gazette. 1t is ad-
dressed to the people Of Cuba in the col
lowing words:
THE failure Of Congress to act on the
irrevocable resignation OF the President
of the Republic of Cuba, or to elect a
successor leaves this country without a
government at a time when great disorder
prevails and requires that, pursuant to
request Of President Palma, the necessary
steps be taken. in the name of and by the
authority of the President of the United
States, to restore order and protect life
and property in the island of Cuba and IN
the islands and keys adjacent thereto, and
for this purpose to establish therein a
provisional government.
THE provisional government hereby
established by direction and in the name
of the President Of the United States Will
be maintained only long enough TO restore
order and peace and public confidence,
and then to hold such elections as may
be necessary to determine those persons
upon whom the permanent government Of
the republic should be devolved."
IN so far as is consistent with the ma
ture Of a provisional government estab-
lished under the authority Of the United
States. this will be a Cuban government.
conforming as far as may be with the
constitution of Cuba. The Cuban flag will
be hoisted as usual over the government
buildings of the island; all the executive
departments and the provincial and munl-
cipai governments, including that of The
city of Havana, will continue to be ad-
ministered as under the Cuban republic;
the courts will continue justice; and al
hws, not in their nature inapplicable by
reason of the temporarily and emergenl
nature of the government will be in
force"
