TAFT TALKS WITH cURANs.
Tells Them Election at Early Date
Would Be UnWise.

Havana, April 9.-Secretary of War
Taft met the conservatives Monday
afternoon and discussed the insular
situation. He said that owing to eco.
nomical conditions he considered a
national election at an early date to
be unwise, and recommended that
such election be postponed until the
result of the municipal and provincial
elections be known.
The conservative representatives
expressed their willingness to leave
all to the good judgment of the Unit
ed States. Secretary Taft probably
will meet the conservatives again on
Wednesday.
After this interview representatives
of all the leading banks Of Cuba called
upon Mr.. Taft and asked him to give
them one or two years notice before
the holding of national elections, as.
sorting that unless this were done the
effect upon commercial conditions in
the island would be disastrous.

ISLE OF PINES IS cUBA's
RULING MADE BY THE UNITED
STATES SUPREME COURT.
Affirm Decision Of Lower Tribunal In
Case Arising from Importa-
ton Of Cigars.

Washington, April 9.-That the Isle
of Pines is not American territory
was officially and judicially declared
Monday by the supreme court of the
United States. The decision was rem
dered in the famous case of Edward
j. Pearcy VS.. Nevada N. Stranahan,
collector of the port at New York, and
the opinion of the court was an
nounced by Chief Justice Fuller, who
said that up to the Paris treaty the
d. Isle of Pines had been considered as
an integral part of Cuba and that it
could not be held to be covered by
article 2 of that treaty which included
only islands in the vicinity of Porto
Rico.
The case originated in connection
with the importation of few boxes of
cigars by Pearcy in September, 1908,
but it's hearing by the court was from
time to time postponed in the hope
that the status of the island might be
definitely fixed by legislation or diplo.
macy. The cigars were made in the
Isle of Pines of tobacco grown there
and when they arrived Pearcy refused
to pay duty, on the ground that they
were of domestic origin. The collec-
tor thereupon seized them, and Pear
cy appealed to the United States cir
cult court, where he secured no relief,
rs the court sustained a demurrer
filed by the government and dismissed
the case. He promptly brought the
case..to the supreme court where the
decree of the lower court was at
firmed.
That fugitive from justice in the
United States who has been extradited
from Canada on one charge can not be
imprisoned on another charge was de.
cided Monday by the supreme court
of the United States in the case of

merchandise at New York, who three
years ago was indicted and convicted

In connection with the importations
