brokers openly declared their fear lest

Trade will cripple the seed business in

The retirement Of President Dickin-

Of the board s action last week, in re.

Washington, Sept. 12.-President
Roosevelt's policy for any emergency
in Cuba, So far as the immediate opera
tion of the war vessels is concerned,
was announced at the state department.
today. It includes the arrival at, Ha-
vana tonight Of the protected cruiser
Denver and the gunboat Marietta at
Cienfuegos some time tomorrow. The
cruiser Des Moines will remain at Key
West until further orders.
In making public these facts, Act
ing Secretary Of State Bacon said that
there was no disposition on the part
Of this government to make a demon
stration in Cuban waters, but the in
surrection had attained such proper
tions it had become necessary to take
steps for the protection of American
interests in Cuba. -
Intervention Possible.
That the president has considered
the ultimate possibility of interven-
ton, or at least the use of force in
safeguarding the interests Of this gov
eminent, there can be no doubt. This
department has been called upon for
statement of the number of marines
available in the event Of trouble.
There are between six hundred and
seven hundred marines now in the Viz
cinity of the West Indies They are
scattered thru Santo Domingo, Porto
Rico and Culebra islands and some are
on the isthmus of Panama. There are
800 marines on the Dixie alone.
President Watches Situation.
The department believes that for the
present the Denver will be sufficient
for all needs along the northern coast
of Cuba and the Marietta for the south
ern coast. The exchange Of messages
between the state department and Mr..
Sleeper, charde at Havana, and other
American Representatives in Cuba
which are supposed to have told Of con-
sditions requiring that prompt action be
taken to safeguard Americans and their
property, viii. not be discussed by Of
fcials of either the state or navy de-
5partments. - 80
It is admitted, however, that all
these messages have been forwarded
upon their receipt to President Roose-
welt at Oyster Bay, who, for several
weeks has personally directed the pol
icy Of the United States concerning the
Cuban outbreak
The program for the Des Moines does
not call for her to proceed to Cuban
waters and it, is said she probably will
be used in preventing flibustering ex-
petitions from the United States en-
barking for Cuba.
In spite of the sudden activity of
this government it is declared that
there is no intention to take any part
in the conflict beyond that demanded by
the critical situation in which Ameri-
cans have been placed on the island.

CANDLES PARTNER BEATEN
Titus E. Price Nominated for the I.egis-

Special to The Journal.

b
Yankton, s. D., Sept. s12sT. E..
Price wins out in Yankton county re-
publican county primaries by a safe
majority for the legislature in OPPOSE
ton to John Holman. There are 126
votes in the legislative convention, of
which Price has "a sure and Holman 38;
II not having been heard from. Price
claims 80 votes in the COW ention.
This fight was one of the most inter
esting in the entire state Holman is
the law partner of Senator Gamble,
who, contrary to the advice. Of his many
political associates thruout the state,
did his utmost for. Holman s success.
Holman s defeat is therefore defeat
for the senator and subjects him to
some loss of prestige. .<
Holman as a member Of the legis-
lature was chief factor in the defeat
OF the primary bill. He had in other
ways made himself obnoxious to GER
tain insurgents who could not resist
the opportunity to rebuke him even tho
he had the backing Of their senator.
