CAN'T GO BACK ON TREATY

Havana, Oct. 1.-THE provisional
government will have nothing to do
with the question of the sovereignty Of
the Isle of Pines or with the separa-
tion OF the government of the island
from the rest of the Cuban repub-
lie.
The executive authority Of the United
States already has decided that the Isle
OF Pines belongs to Cuba and has en-
bodied that affirmation In a treaty con-
ceding the sovereignty OF the island to
cuba and this treaty is now pending
ratification In the American Senate
The entire matter being one of the
calculations Of the state department.
the provisional government which is
wholly under the war department, will
aot mix therein.
Inc mode OF government of the Isle
or Pines as part Of the Cuban repub.
tic may be altered or amended. bur the
desire OF Americans in the Isle Of
Pines for territorial or municipaI gov
eminent as part Of the United states
nnot De conceded by any act on the
par or the provisional government OF
tuna or the war department.
Inc president Of the American coun-
Gil on the Isle of Pines has not made
representa- ions in the matter. but the
most likely action to be gained would
De the placing of an American military
vi the island as governor in
place OF the present Cuban mayor.
The American residents of the Isle
nave adopted unanimously a resolution
generating Secretary Root and Cen
eral Leonard Wood from all blame in
connection with the turning over Of
me Isle to Cuba and they feel that this
step ought to open the way to nego-
t'ations for making the Isle American
property. They consider present con-
nitlons opportune for securing a set
tlement of the matter which they be-
lteve may hang fire indefinitely in the
United States Senator
Governor Taft has decided that the
pay of the Cuban senator's and con-
gressmen be stopped October l, when
the Palma administration ceased He
will decree the congress to be in recess

tied.
Mrs. Taft and Mrs Bacon held q re-

tarlly. -.

tarily.
New Orleans Oct. 1l.--For the nrst
time since this city was founded. iss
years ago, q modern sanitary and un-
derground sewerage system was put
into operation tonight. The pipes
connected are part or $24.OO0.OO0
sewerage. drainage ana water system,
the building of which began eight
years ago.
In an area measuring twenty-five
blocks by forty-two, including the
principal business section Of New Or
leans, tonight's connection marks the
end of cess-pools and of portable
vaults in business houses. which have,
for many years, been a danger to pub
lie health. It marks also the end In
the near future of the deep cutters at
each side Of the streets. through which
water flows almost continuously and
which have been a distinctive feature
of this semi-tropical city. 1t will be
many months before complete connec-
tions can be made with the pipes
opened tonight.
tents of these pipes are emptied into
twenty five feet below mean water
level. The fact that the river annual
ly rises above the city's street level
made an underground beverage sys-
tenn impossible until the force pump
was resorted to. Pumps are also used
for the drainage pipes. which are sep
arate from the sewerage and are in
tended principally to carry Off the wa

resolution was adopted condemn

gestcd that the simplified method Of
spelling be used in the preparation OF

but the idea was rejected practically
unanimously.
1t was decided that in states whore

members of the organization ihe
negro cahps should he organized into
separate departments and that here
after the word negro" should be
used instead of the word 'Colored. %.
