Havana, Aug. 25-The cabinet cri-
sis it is officially announced, has been
satisfactorily arranged as follows:
Senor O'Farrill retains the portfolio Of
secretary Of state and justice. Senior
Font Sterling and General Montalvo
will continue, ad interim, in charge
Of the ministry of interior. When
General Ruis Rivera, Cuban minister
to Central and South America, reach
es the city, he will resume charge Of
the interior ministry.
Early today's advices from Pinar
del Rio and vicinity indicate the out-
come Of the expected battle between
the government troops and insurgents
under Guerra, is more in doubt than
officials at Palos are willing to admit.
Guerra is believed to have about 1000
men who can be depended upon and
are reported well equipped and armed
with ammunition. 1t is suspected the
insurgents leaders, withdrawal from
San Luis and San Juan was a ruse to
'attaract the government Nroops from
their base at Pinar del Rio. A sud-
den descent upon Pinar del Rio. in the
event Palma's troops do not take the
early offensive, would not surprise
those seemingly we'll informed. The
city has less than 1000 armed defend-
ers, and the strength Of civilian loyal
ty is in doubt. So far there has been
no serious disaffection in the city, but
in the surrounding districts the situa-
ton is not reassuring.
The Stars and Stripes are flying
conspicuously from points Of vantage
on American owned properties thruout
the disturbed districts. Scrupulously
respected by both government forces
and by the rowing bands of insurrec-
tionists, the emblem of the United
States is perhaps exerting a moral in
fuence over soberminded CuhanS
Senator Norma Campos Marqueti, lib
eral, who has espoused the cause of
the insurgents, has publicly advocat-
ed appointment by President Roose-
welt of a commission to investigate
the charges Of fraud in connection with
the last elections, and other prominent
men indorse the idea.
Among the suggestions made with the
view Of bringing about a peaceful set
tlement of the insurrection, is that OF
conceding to the liberals annulment
Of the December elections, and holding
new ones, in which both political par
ties, moderates and liberals, shall par
ticipate fairly and freely. Another is
that commission be appointed by
President Roosevelt, to investigate the
matters in dispute. It is also proposed
that commission composed Of gov
ernment supporters and insurgents, Of
w hich the American minister here shall
be chairman, be appointed to decide
upon the basis Of settlement. None Of
the plans appear practical.

was occasionally irrational he sat up
in bed one evening and said to the
nurse: when does the firing begin?"
To humor him the nurse replied: THE
firing will begin at 9 o'clock, general"
Gen. Wheeler leaned back in his bed,
apparently resting. At five minutes
to Q O'Clock he reached over for his
watch, noticed the time and took from
the table near his bed small bunch
of absorbent cotton. The nurse was
watching him, somewhat puzzled by
his actions. Very deliberately Gen.
Wheeler plugged both ears with the
cotton. Then he leaned back in his

Some years ago there arose in Lynn,
Mass, an important law case bearing
upon the right OF a labor union en-
ploying n banner boy to patrol at the
front of Patrick Sherrys shoe factory
on Munroe street.
Upon the banner was printed a
warning to workmen to keep away
fSSm the Sherry factory, as a strike
was in progress. Mr.. Sherry reasoned
that the work of the banner boy"
was an invasion of his rights, there
fore the boy was arrested.
The case was appealed to the supe-

was counsel for the labor Union. Judge
Aldrich was hearing the case. Mr..
Baldwin sought to make a ludicrous

there at the gratings appear hideous

Thus speaks the voice that can only
