CUBAN PROBLEM
VEXES TAFT
Intervention Almost Certain
But the Form Not
Decided Upon
PALMA MAY HAVE TO GO
Bv our own We. PubIIshers' Press.

BY Our own Wire. Publishers PreSs.
HAVANA, Sept. 22-The question no"
forming in Cuba is not whether the
United states Government shall inter-
vene to restore peace. but in what form
the intervention win be offered.
Secretary Taft has received statements
from all factions that indicate that M
agreement can possibly be reached that
would leave the island government wholly
in Cuban hands
American officials. hitherto optimistic
over the prospects Of securing peace and
restoring the Palma Government, are now
convinced that only the go1l offices OF
Uncle Sam can save the island from con-
tinued turmoil and an uncertain political
future.
Taft has received statements from
Capote. representing the government s
view of the situation and from the zayas
setting out the attitude Of the rebels. and
none give hope Of compromise.
Officials Of the Palma Government
threaten that If the American represen-
tatives order new elections, the entire
responsibility of conducting the govern.
ment temporarily and manage the cleo
tions will be thrown on their hands.
One proposed solution TO the difficulty is
to continue the Palma Government with
assurances to the revolutionists that If
possible their rights will hereafter be
fully observed. If this proposition is ac-
cepted by the rebels, the consummation
Of the plan would require an American di-
rection Of the Palma administration.

FALL BEGINS
WITH TO-DAY
Present Summer Has Been a
Record Breaker For
Rain
EQUINOCTIAL STORMS DUE

To-day Old Sol crossed the celestial
equator. and throughout the globe day
and night is Of equal length. In other
words the equinox has arrived-sum-
mer is ended and fan begins
1t is true that it does not feel very
much like it to-day. and the ther-
mometer seems TO indicate that fan
and summer are singularly alike, but
within a few days atmospheric dis
turbances are due some rain win fall
and after that fall weather will settle
down upon us. The early morning
haze. the sheen of the sunlight, the
peculiar coolness of the evening and
the early twilight will soon be here to
confirm the act OF Old Sol to-day i'm
crossing Heavens equator.
At midnight last night we bade fare
well to the summer of 1906 A summer
which has been remarkable in many
ways and one not soon forgotten. It
has been characterized from beginning
to end by heavy rainfalls, sudden
hushes of hot and cold and an excessive
percentage of humidity.
The total precipitation or rainfall for
June. July and August was 2S4l inches
or 1854 inches above the normal aver
age for summer months. August held
the prize with 11o.7O inches; July came
next with 773 inches and June last
with 4.9S inches.
Not once has this record for a sum-
mer been surpassed since records have
been kept in the Registry Bureau in
this city.
In 1917. i'm Baltimore, a record Of
22.5S inches was recorded for the SUM
mer, but even that is beaten by this
years record.
The greatest rainfall was recorded on
July and 5, on which dates a record
of PAS inches is given and this is the
maximum for any "a hours during the
summer.
The records show that while June
was the least rainy month. II was the
hottest with an average daily temper
ature for the month of S0.2 degrees.
The hottest day of the summer was
June 29 when an average temperature
of 90 degrees was maintained from s
in the morning to in the afternoon.
July closely followed June for heat.
with record of so average tempara-
ture per day-one-tenth Of a degree
less than June. No one July day.
however, was as hot as June %.
The average temperature Of August
was 7S.4 degrees.
But If the season was not one Of ex-
cessive heat. it was one Of excessive
humidity, and it was this that made
II SO oppressive. The normal humidity
during the summer months is said 10
be Go per cent; but this summer Il
averaged rs PER cent? and during Au-
gust it was no less than 50 per cent.
and once. on August 25, it was 90 per
cent.

SUGAR TRUST
SAVES CUBA

By Our Own Wire. Publishers Press
LONDON, Sept 22.-'Fhe Sugar Trust
and not President Roosevelt. has been re-
sponsible for Cuba maintaining her in
dependence for SO long. but the time has
come when theUnited States cannot longer
refrain from taking the NEST vigorous
action" This Is the view expressed by The
Saturday Review, noted Cor its anti
American sentiment. in comment to-day
on the Cuban situation.
America freed Cuba by one Of the most
atrocious hlibustering campaigns known
to history. the Review declares. The sue
cession Of events since then has been
what everybody knew must happen.
The only chance for Cuba to retain its
independence is the development Of a
man Of the Diaz type, but it is question:
able whether America would allow such
man to continue his work.

MANY WILL
ENTER PLANS

Secretary Tibbitts. Of the Y. NJ. c. A.,
expects that fully % designs Of buildings
for the 100000 Y. NJ. c. A. structure m
this city will be submitted to the Build
ing Committee as result Of the competl-
ton which the committee decided to hold.
A feature especially hard to design in
such a building is found to be the general
reception or secretary's room. The ar
rangement of the lockers and the dormi-
tories is another hard problem. For this
reason the committee believed that the
best thing to do was to open the compete
tion to such architects as had beon de-
signing structures which had been built.

NO ASSISTANCE
FROM COUNCIL
Merchants Must Subscribe
Money to Defray Expenses
For Firemen'S Review
PARADE WILL BE HELD

Led to believe. so they say, by the
individual members of City Council
that at least $500 wouldbe expended by
the city toward defraying theexpenses
of firemen's review in connection
with the proposed Halloween cele-
bration. the joint committee of the
Mercantile Association and Fraternal
Order of Eagles. was dumfounded to
learn yesterday that Council as a
committee Of a whole had decided not
to give any financial assistance to the
celebration.
At a meeting of the committee last
evening. at which all the fire COM
panies were represented, the action Of
Council was freely discussed. Chair
man Bader. of the joint committee,
said: Il cannot see how Council can
appropriate $3.50 for a trip to Chicago
for it's own amusement and not con-
tribute $500 for the amusement of the
$4,000 people Of Wilmington" Secre-
tary Sasse and other members of the
committee made similar remarks.
viii Parade Just the Same
The representatives Of all the fire
companies reported that their organi-
cations would turn out in review and
il was decided by the joint committee
to furnish each company with a band
despite Councils action. If any COM
pany however, desires to engage its
own band. the committee win have no
objection.
The firemen's review win be held in
connection with the industrial parade,
the fremen having the right Of line.
It is expected that a number Of organ
izations will also turn out in the after
noon, which viii make the parade the
largest ever seen in Wilmington.
Mummers at Night
On the night of the celebration, the
organizations which did not parade in
the afternoon and the mummers will
have fun sway and thousands are ex-
pect9d to be in line.
The joint committee anticipates that
the cost of the celebration win be be-
tween $500 and $1,000 and the members
confidently expect that this amount

DRESS HINTS.

The style and trimness of a woman depend lot upon her hat.
 Never leave your veil tied about your hat, for it will become limpy and unmanageable and soon prove useless.
 When altering blouse it is mis- take to move the shoulder seam to the front. X better plan is to let it drop backward instead of forward.
 A collar lining of taffeta should be cut so that the front part is on the straight" of the material and the curved part of the collar will then come on the bias.
 It is a good plan to bend steels or whalebones at the waist line when making bodice before putting them into the castings. as the bodice will then fit closer to the figure.
 The shine that shows a serge skirt or jacket to be no longer new can easily be removed by sponging the gar ment with bluing water, such as is used to laundry clothes. While still damp press the goods under thin cloth.

YOur PrOperty.

All you had before your marriage Is still yours, and in most states you have also the sole ownership of that which you acquire after marriage. Your right minded husband will wish you to have your property stand in your name, that 1t may be free from the possible attachment of his creditors. If your property or part of it be real estate. remember that the law of the state in which real estate is situated governs all matters concerning it. All your property is subject to the laws of your domicile. Some states require man to join in deed of his wife's property even though the property is really hers. Get legal advice on such points. 1t is seldom safe to be party to the trans fer of property without it.--Caroline J Cook in Good Housekeeping.
