ceptance of $50 in deposits after the

IN MODERATE TERMS
TAFT'S PROCLAMATION ON AS
sUMiNG CONTROL OF CUBAN
GOVERNMENT.

Havana, Sept. 29.-An American
provisional government assumed DOS
session of Cuba when War Secretary
Taft's proclamation declaring himself
provisional governor of the island was
formally issued. The proclamation
was published in the Official Gazette
and thousands of printed copies of the
document were distributed in Havana
and elsewhere.
The terms of the proclamation
caused general satisfaction, especially
on account of the moderate terms in
which it is phrased. The statement is
plainly made that the provisional gov
eminent Of Cuba is undertaken only
on account of the necessities of the
situation and the proclamation prom
tses that the provisional government
will be maintained purely for the pur-
pose of restoring peace, order and pub
lie confidence until a permanent gov
eminent is established. No one an
pears inclined to doubt the good inten-
tons Of President Roosevelt and his
representatives and there is no appre-
hension OF any serious trouble or re-
sistance to the provisional government
In any part of Cuba.

BEFORE A LUNACY COMMISSION
Harry X. Thaw Will Be Examined as
to His Sanity,

New York, Sept. est is learned
that Harry K. Thaw is to be examined
before a lunacy commission. This
step has been decided on by Thaw's
lawyers after much persuasion by Mrs.
William Thaw. She plans to avoid
having him placed on trial for the
Staying of Stanford White, preferring
to have him sent to the Mattewan
asylum for the criminal insane.
An application for the appointment
of the lunacy commission will be
made, it is understood, before Justice
Blanchard next week in the supreme
court, criminal branch. The applica-
ton will be based upon the afidavits
of several of Thaw's lawyers and of
alienists who have made a thorough
physical and mental examination of
the prisoner.
No opposition will be offered by the
district attorneys office.
