DECISION TO SEND THE LATTER
TO CUBA RECONSTRUCTED BY
THE PRESIDENT.

Washington, Oct. 4.-After talk at
the White House with Governor Ma

he would not interfere with the pro-
gramme. Consequently Mr.. Winthrop
will be provisional governor Of Cuba

tion in this country, will, as originally
planned. go to the Philippines as vice
governor and member OF the Philip
pine commission.
At the presidents request General
Franklin J. Bell. chief OF staff, will
proceed as soon as possible to Havana
