CUBAN FINANCES
IN GOOD CONDITION

Havana, February Ex-senator Pasalo-
dos, secretary to President Gomez, has
given out a statement of the financial op-
erations during the first year of the pres
ent administration. At the end of Amer
lean Intervention, January %, 1909. the
government found only s2,5O0,00O in the
treasury to meet obligations of $4,000, 600
Since that time all expenses have been
paid, although the present budget shows
an increase Of 100000. due TO exterior
debts and the establishment of new Of
fees and departments created by the
government of Intervention, which became
effective upon re-establishment of the
Cuban government.
Notwithstanding this, 100000 has been
paid of the sR,090,0o0, owed by the gov
eminent, with a remaining balance of
| $2,5o00Oo. The new budget for the coming
| fiscal year amounts to $29, 620, 5H, which
| compared with the estimated receipts
shows a surplus of $5,159,149
1t is also shown that after ded,lctIr,
expenses incurred in establishing nev
offices and interest due on the loan. III,
present budget is thereby 10000 less thar
the one in force during the last year @
President Palma's administration.

it was decided to turn to a discussion
of rules and to resume the schedule de-
bate at p. m. tomorrow.
After the magnates had been in session
four hours today President Lynch an
nounced that there was hopeless dead
lock and that by consent the further con-
sideration of the schedule had gone over
until tomorrow. The balance of the even
ing session, he stated, would be spent
in considering the report of the rules
committee.
A ballot the schedule was taken
when the meeting was first called to
order. This showed the situation was
the same as yesterday: That Dreyfuss of
Pittsburg, Hermann of Cincinnati and
Dewey of Boston favored the short sched-
ule of 154 games. The five others voted
for the adoption of the long schedule.
The rules of the league require six votes
to adopt any schedule.
When today's session began Ebbetts
of Brooklyn said
"Dreyfuss and Hermann want a short
schedule because they think they have
a chance to win the pennant. If they
thought they did not have chance they
would be for the long schedule"
We'll, then, that means that you fell
lows have no pennant hopes" said Herr

SPORTING NOTES
zBYSzKO
READY FOR
CUTLER BOUT

Stanislaus Zbyszko arrived in Chi
cago last night from Cleveland and is
satisfied with the arrangements made
for his bout with Kid Cutler at the
Coliseum Monday night. While at
Cleveland the big Polish wrestler de-
feated Tom jenkins, former worlds
champion. in straight falls. He was
accompanied to this city by his man
ager, Jack Herman.
Herman said that Cutler can have
any terms he desires for the match.
"Zbyszko Is confident of winning ana
does not see the possibility of a de-
feat" he said. He is in much better
shape now than he has ben since arriv-
ing in this country. When he met Cut
Ter at the Coliseum in his first appear
ance here Zbyszko was in poor shape.
He was In no condition to stand the
pace that Cutler set for him. But there
really wasn't any chance for Cutler to
throw him.
I'VE have heard that Cutler has
greatly improved since then. The les
sons taught him by Gotch must have
been extremely valuable to him. Cutler
was a mighty good man when Zbyszko
met him first. If he has improved the
bout of Monday will be a hard one.
believe, however. that Zbyszko will
win and then we'll go after Mahmout
We have been looking for that match
If Zbyszko beats the Turk he will be
in a direct line for a match with Gotch
for the worlds title"
According to Herman. Zbyszko will
weigh 236 pounds when he steps into
the ring Monday. When he last met
Cutler he tipped the beam at 27(
pounds. He is in very good condition
now and would only need two weeks
of hard work to get him in shape te
meet Gotch, Herman declares
Cutler left the c. A. A yesterday ano
worked at the Northern A. c. He tool
on both Charles Postl and Walter VIII
loughby, putting in a hard days work
He claims that he has all his strength
back again and that he is entirely re
covered from the injury sustained whef
he pitched out of the ring at the Col
iseum with Zbyszko.
