Statement.
GET NO ELECTION NOW
Census Will First Be Taken to
Give Basis of Regis
trati0n.

Havana, April 9.-American control
of the government of Cuba will con-
tinue at least until June, 1908.
Secretary Taft made this declaration
yesterday. After a conference with the
liberal and conservative politicians, and
with men representing the business in
terests of the island, including large
delegation of bankers, he issued the
following statement:
The municipal, and possibly the pro-
vincial elections will occur after the
taking of a census. These elections
will be for determining the effective
ness of the new electoral laws, and
the general elections for president,
vice president, and congressman will
follow. 1t all means considerable de-
lay. The taking of the census will oc-
cupy at least four months. Then one
month will intervene before the mu-
nicipal elections. which will bring the
first elections not earlier than the mid
die of September. The presidential
election will follow at some indefinite
future time, probably nve or six
months, depending on conditions"
settles Cuban Doubts.
While there has been little doubt in
| the United States that the administra-
tiOn intended to reestablish the Cuban
republic, there has been so much agi-
fSVttUrr here that Secretary Tafts open
declaration Of the American govern
ment's intentions is most important
He met the demand for some definite
program. but he declined to fix dates
for the elections. He said he would
possibly do so after returning to Wash
! ington.
| The taking of the census was propos-
ed by the advisory commission, which
consists of representatives of all par
ties. and number of American pro-
visional officials. They unanimously
agreed to the plan. thinking an honest
basis for registration could not be pro-
cured otherwise It had been intended
TO hold the municipal elections in June.
but Secretary Taft, after consultation,
decided otherwise. There is no chance
that the Americans will evacuate the
island before June. 1908.
Asked to Wipe Out Fraud.
| Representative of the liberal party
who met Secretary Taft demanded the
fuifillment of the promises they claim
he made last fall to remove the mod
crate party governors who had been
Ifraudulently elected. This matter Sec
retary Taft turned over TO Governor
MagOOn. He added that the admins
tration was highly satisfied with Gov
lernor Magoon's conduct of Cuban af-
fairs and that he would be given more
AUTHORITY than ever.

yesterday as officially favoring the re-

The Holmes resolution offered Satur-

This was done after Representative

said he wanted the resolution referred
to his committee, because he was go

get out of the committee.
