Americans were arrested yesterday on
charge of threatened homicide and
arson. declare that only the arrival of
United States Minister Jackson pre-
vented a serious conflict with the local

The American co1onists on the Isle
Of Pines had gathered at Neuva Ge-
roma, the capitatL to protest against
the arrest of the Americans on what
was claimed to be trumped up
charge, preferred last May by Cuban
sauatter on Gardner's property. The
local Judge refused to consider the
charge and the case was apparently
closed, until Friday, when the prose-
cutting attorney at Havana ordered the
accused arrested. Minister Jackson,
upon his arrival. assembled the indig-
nant colonists and warned them they
must obey the Cuban law. He promis-
ed full protection to American co1onists
and On this promise his advice was

HAVE A LOOK AT YOUR UNCLE SAMMY
ATTITUDE OF JOHN A. DIX
 TOWARD THE CORPORATIONS

New York. December 0.-The views of John A. Dix, a business man, who will soon be governor of New York were in- dicated tonight as they will affect his at titude toward the corporations, in his speech at a dinner given him by the Mer- chants Democratic association In deal ing with the corporation he said tile hu- man element in it's make-up had not been eonsld cred.
 That spells individual responsibility. he declared. sand 1t shoul be treated sas sacH ana should receive tne same com sideration as an individual If it's atti- tude toward our laws or it's returns to our institutions transgress those laws or the policies of our institutions, 1t is not only open to the same criticism as an in- dividual, but should bear the respon- sibility of the transgressor."
 At the dinner another speaker beside MT. Dix was Judge Alton B. Parker. At the guests table were Charles F. Mur- phy, leader of Tammany Hall, and Win man. Mayor Garnor, Norman E. Mack man. Mayor Gaynor. ..orman E. Mack of Buffalo. chairman of the democratic national committee, and Edwin M. Shep- ard were unable to be present Each sent letter.

strain trade created in defiance of law in order to reap the full benefit of the exactions which the tSriff duties per init have been most emphatically con demned by the verdict of the people.
 No longer need it be argued that the people are not burdened by the present statute. That fact stands ad- mitted by great leaders of the repub - lican party (which Is responsible for every increase from an average of 20 l. per cent before the war to an average of 90 per eent) including the present President and his predecessor. Their admissions are to be found in tneif pleas for. a reduction schedule by schedule, one at & time.
 What remains to be done is for the Congreai, after the immediate lowering of a few nefarious schedules, to work out 9 plan by which there shall come a gradual but sure reduction of duties, with the view of ultimately eliminat- ing all favoritism
 The situation demands statesman ship. It requires from the Congress the absolute subordination of party gain to the present and future good.
 T have faith that 1t will be under taken in that spirit and that the out come will prove the wisdom and Jus tice of the party. I for one have no fear that the democratic party will be- come a mere assistant to the repub- lican' party In its battle Tor the pro- tected interests against the people But if such misfortune should come. there will spring into existence a new party having for its leading purpose the, emancipation of all of the people from the traffic shackles that oppress them"

Results Are So Close That
 People Lose interest
EVEN BREAK FOR PARTIES
Made Any Gain Worth Mentioning and Liberals Will Retain
 the Lead

1 London, December 10.-The first week of the general elections ended with both
 political parties holding their own. Five hundred and two seats have been filled
 and each side gained 2 from the other.
 The complexion of the new house of com
 mons up to date is as follows:
 Government coalition: Liberals 1s3, la-
 borites 32 nationalists 55. independent na-
 tionalists T. Total, 277.
 1 Opposition: Unionists, 225.
 l The cioseness of the elections continues
 to cause wonder, but with only 169 rneni- bers yet to be chosen and the certainty | that neither side will make important | gains, the public is fast losing interest. Thirteen constituencies polled today but
 the results of only five of them are known tonight. David, Lloyd-George,
 chancellor of the exchequer, who was the most bitterly assailed by the peers of all the. liberals, was returned by his Welsh constituency with an increased majority.
 An evening paper is authority for q story that strained relations have arisen
 between Chancellor Lloyd-George and Home Secretary Churchill because of the

NEW ERA IN OPERA FOR AMERICANS

 For the first time in history an interna- tionally famous composer has chosen this country to bring out the premiere of an operatic work. Judge by what the musi- cal writers of this and other cities declare and by the inspiring ovation which came from the brilliant throng. '"The Girl of the Golden West" or La Fanciulla Del West" is work of rare success. Puccini and curtain calls.
 Spectators stood on the sidewalk out side the Metropolitan tonight and named their own prices for the seats that had come into their hands. Though prices were doubled, the demand ran away with the supply, and two chairs in the dress circle are said to have been sold on Broadway for si6O just before the curtain rose. Puccini virtually selected the cast, but to Belasco fell the task of developing the stage business, and, in fact, every movement of the principals. even to the

In Naval Strength America
 Is Ahead of Germany
FIGHTING FOR MORE POWER
England Is Striving to Keep Ahead of All Nations, While Germany Is Using Every Effort to Catch Up

Washington, December 10.-The United States closes another year in> second place among the worlds naval powers The great navy building race between Germany and Great Britain has not yet brought the former country up to the United States in the number of battle ships ahoat, but in ships projected and in the total number war vessels of all kinds, Germany will crowd the United States to third place.
 These facts are shown in the new navy year book, pwrepared by Putnam Pusifer, clerk to the Senate committee on naval affairs, and soon to be issued by the gov ernment printing office. In armored cruisers, although the technical division made in the United States indicates. Ger many to have more than this country, the actual strength of the United States ex- ceeds that of it's European rival.
 Notwithstanding the continued hustling of Germany to overcome Great Britains plan of a two-power navy, the United States is nearly if not quite abreast of Germany, weighing points which make for efficiency, says MT. Pulsifer.
 Tn complete tonnage the United States is ahead of Germany. In battleships completed both in number and displace- ment, the United States leads Germany. Including battleships completed. under construction and providing for the num- Der, each country is identical, while the United States exceeds Germany in tota, battleship tonnage"
 The compilations of MT. Pulsifer show the world powers to rank as follows. as to completed ships:
The Birmingham age-herald., 1910-12-11

In ships completed, building and pro- vided for by the various countries. Ger manys number rises to 255, with dis placement of 96S, ,452; while the United States has IT, with displacement of STS.l52 tons
 In the 'dreadnought type alone, in which is placed armored cruisers as well as the new battleships, the fierce race between England and Germany is clear ly shown. At present the floating navies of the three leading powers contain dreadnought type vessels as follows:
 England Il, with displacement of 209- 100 tons; United States {. displacement 72,OO0; Germany 4. displacement 72.000.
 The year book shows that when vessels now being constructed and those for which funds have been provided are com pleted the dreadnought strength of the three countries will be:
 England 27, with displacement of 55S.- 300 tons; Germany r, ~ch displacement of ST ,000 and the United States 10. with displacement of 22i.650 tons.
 MT. Pulsifier finds little to commend in the constantly increasing size of ships and the tendency to reach for greater disnlacement and tonnage. Brazl's new g 6c0-tons battleship is the largest now building.
 3 .T believe" said he that it has not yet been shown that there is any bet ter ship than the Michigan and South Carolina, each of which has tonnage of 1e,000 tons and carries eight 12-inch guns, which can all be used In broad side firing
 'sThe larger ship represents a much larger continuous target and IS less wieldy than the smaller ship; it is unable to enter harbors which accommodate the smaller ship and there is greater diff culty in docking
