TAFT TALKS OF
 CENSUS TAKING

Washington, January 5.-The appoint ment of negro census enumerators in the south was discussed with President Taft today by Representatives Bartlett and Hardwick of Georgia. The announcement of Census Director Durand that negro enumerators would be employed to take the census of negroes in the south took the southerners to the White House.
 President Taft assured his callers that so far as he controlled the situation, and he thought he knew what he was talking about, no negro census enumerator would attempt to take a census of white peo- pie in the south. He explained that it was the belief of the census authorities that negroes would be more effective in securing data regarding negroes in the south than white people. particularly in census districts largely populated by ne- groes.
 The Presidents assurances were satis- factory to the southern callers although they expressed the opinion that the poll icy of the census authorities would be a failure so far as the south at large was concerned.

NO SYNDICATE FOR
 GARRY HERMANN

Cincinnati, January 5.-A straight dec- the report of August Hermann, chair man of the National Baseball commits sion, was the feature of the annual meeting of the body here today. Sew eral decisions were handed down after adjournment
 The initial appearance of Thomas J. Lynch, president of the National league, as a member of the commission, was made the excuse for turning the meet Tonight he was guest of honor at a dinner given by Chairman Hermann and President Johnson of the American league.
 William Murray presented his claim against the Philadelphia National league club. He alleges contract calling for his services as manager until after the season of 1911, but says that the new management of the club refuses to carry out the agreement.
 The commission decided that the case does not belong to It's jurisdiction and referred it, through President Lynch, to the board of directors of the National league.
 Another finding declared that players of the California league, 'the outlaw" organization. which recently subscribed to the national agreement. must make personal application for restoration to good standing.
 The Waco club was given five days in which to pay the draft price for Pitcher Holmes, formerly of the New York Ma uonals.

MINISTER MORGAN
 ENDS HIS MISSION

Havana, January 5-The long mission ister to Cuba, terminated today when he sailed for the United States leaving Nor val Richardson, second secretary of the legation, as charge d'affaires. Mir. Nor gan was escorted to the steamer by all the members of the diplomatic corps, rep- resentatives of the Cuban government and army and the most representative of ell the foreign colonies.
 Minister Morgan's last official act was to notify President Gomez that the Amer ican government had withdrawn its ob- jections to the proposed exchange of the Western Railways Villaneuva station to the Prado for the lands of the arsenal on which the Western and United Rail- ways of Havana, both English companies, will erect great union terminal
 The Washington administration object ed to the control of the terminal and water front by foreign corporations and also to the proposed loan of several mil lions of dollars by the railroads to the Cuban government with which to erect a palace and other government build ings on the Vfllaneuva site. These con- ditions have now been eliminated, the railways agreeing to unite and form an American terminal company.
 They will also erect an arsenal, steel wharves for governmental use. and a crematory for tho destruction of garbage and rubbish and carry out other i'm provements.
 Considerable surprise has been ex- pressed that the government is willing to make the exchange in view of the fact that tho arsenal area much exceeds that at Villaneuva and also has a most valuable water front. whereas the latter site is not available for governmental purposes except for the erection of pub lie buildings for which there are no funds. President Gomez intends to send a spe- cial message to congress on the sub

Break In New York.

New York. January 5.-There was a. sensational break in the cotton market late today. with May deliveries selling off to 15 60 cents, or H points lower than last night, 64 points below the best level of the day, and S6 points, or $4.30 per bale below the high level of the season.
 The weaknes sin the stock market prob ably contributed to Wall street selling of cotton. but other selling orders came from all directions, and it looked as though there was a regular panic among longs following the record-breaking ad- vances of late last year. It was rumored that the cotton interests were unloading and 1t was also reported that strong Wall street clique had been formed to depress prices owing to the failure of trade demand to improve as rapidly as expected with the turn of the year.
 Today's advices from the south were generally bullish to the spot situ- ation, but there were rumors of increased offerings, which probably aided in pre- cipitating the tremendous liquidation late in the day. The market has been more or less unsettled all week, but the sensa- tional break of today come very sudden ly, with the market declining more than S3 per bale less than an hours time. The market closed weak at net de- cline of 25 to 57 points, May selling at 16.60 cents, or at the lowest. It is esti- mated that the big southern bulls had bought fully 10000 bales in an ineffect- ual effort to check the decline.
