the Tempestuous Republic,
While the Masses are
Utterly Indifferent

Havana. far less ostentation
than accompanies the accession OF
| government of Cuba was formally
taken over on Saturday by William II.
| Taft, secretary of war OF the United
! States, who, In a proclamation cloth
ed in kindly and diplomatic tone,
Indicative OF the policy he would pur-
sue, declared himself provisional
governor OF the island Promptly at
noon Governor Taft, Assistant Secre-
tary of State Bacon and Captain Nc
Cook, Governor Taft's alde-de-camp
called Officially at the palace and paid
their respects to the retiring presi-
dent. ignoring President Palmas
message To congress on Friday, in
which he wrongly interpretated the
mission of the American mediators,
Governor Taft spoke kindly to Senior
Palma, to whom, he said, the people
OF Cuba owed an unquestionable debt
Of gratitude. President Palma's brief
reply was devoted entirely to an ex-
preston OF relief for the opportunity
of shifting the burden OF guiding the
tempestuous republic to the represen-
tatives OF a nation strong enough to
enforce control over 1t.
The fact that the government has
changed hands, from a position of abb
solute independence to the restraint
OF temporary protector, etc, was re-
ceived by the masses with utter indif-
ference. Most of the refined and
thoughtful Cubans, while they feel a
certain sensatiyeness over the loss of
the islands sovereignty. are inclined
to hope that the United States pro-
tectorate will be brief
A Cuban returning to Havana on
Saturday after a brief absence would
not have recognized from the general
altitude OF the people that the form of
had been altered. Bust
ness continued the same. except for
the vigor exhibited by the Wholesale
manufacturers and rail
roads, to regain their former trade
the island. which has been
at standstill since the beginning of
the revolution six weeks ago.

TROOPS BOUND FOR CUBA.
Marines Already There and Soldiers
viii Be in Havana BY Saturday.

Washington.-me troops now
are moving toward Cuba. Mobiliza-
ton of the forces will be at Newport
News, Va, for the most part, although
a part OF the expeditionary force to
Cuba will be sent from New York and
Tampa, Fla Advices received at the
departments of the military indicate
that all is quiet in Cuba and that the
insurgents intend to lay down their
arms. The probability is the United
States forces in the island will be
landed only as a precautionary meas
ure. So far as officials are advised no
trouble of a serious kind is antici-
pated, but in accordance with instruc-
lions from President Roosevelt, hur-
ried preparations are being made for
the sending of an expeditionary force
of the army to Cuba.
The first American troops will be
landed at Havana next Saturday.
Meantime, the marines and bluejack-
cts from the American fleet In Cuban
waters will protect American interests
and support Secretary Taft the pro-
visional governor of Cuba, in the pres
ervation of order and the protection
of life and property.
