gresSneni Bartender Fined,
10y Morning journal Special Leased wireI


Havana, JAM IA strong race
feeling has been engendered by the
trouble wnioh aiose last night at the
Hotel plaza, an American house, over
the refusal of the bartender to serve
drinks to two negro congressman.
This resulted i'm riot which. al
though no one was seriously injured
made necessary the calling out OF the
police reserves.
Today the clerk Of the hotel was
fined $40.
An enormous crowd Of negroes in
cluding strong representation Of the
veterans association attended the
trial and demanded exemplary pun
ishment on account of the insult to the
negro race. Senior Morua del Gado,
president of the senate and leader of
the negro element, conducted the
prosecution and insisted upon the ex-
treme penalty which is a fine of $1,000
and six months in Jail.
The decision of the court to inflict
minor penalty was greeted with
strong expressions of disapproval. Af-
ter the adjournment of the court, the
two negro congressman heading a
the hotel crying viva Maceo, viva La
Patria. They entered the bar and
demanded drinks which we're served
With no further protest
The incident has caused much ex-
element and theL. are grave fears Of
a serious race clash Many Cubans
are svmpathzing with the attitude of
the American hotel. Tonight a strong
guard Of police has been kept about
the place.
El Triunfo a government organ pub
lished q bitter editorial declaring that
an blacks and whites in Cuba are on
a plane Of absolute equalits and that
the Americans must be taught by the
strong arm of the law that they shall
not be permitted to introduce into

vance and had taken for granted many
objections they would make and prac-
tically informed them that, while their
views would be given every considera-
tion i'm the final wording Of the mes
sage he conld not alter his basic rec
concentrations.
The presidents proposed interstate
commerce court Of five members {
cnsider appeals firm the interstate
commerce commission, With an appeal
only to the supreme court OF the
United states, was particularly object
ed to BY the railroad representatives.
They declared that the court soon
would become nothing more than a
second commission. They preferred
to take appeals direct from the COM
mission to federal courts. The rec
ommendation for court, however
will remain in the message.
The railroad presidents objected
most seriously also to proposed re-
strictions upon the issuance of stocks,
bonds and short term notes Presi-
dent Taft will recommend that no
such securities shall be issued in the
future without the approval of the
interstate commerce commission based
upor a finding that the issues are for
less than par for stock and not less
than the reasonable market value for
bonds.
Railroads claim this restriction viii
seriously interfere with their borrow
ing ability. The amendments then de-
sgned to prevent over issues of stocks
and bonds and the custom known as
watering. If adopted it is said, the
amendment also would put and end to
what is known as Speculative con-
struction."
The railroad presidents objected to
the proposed amendments giving ship
pers the right of selecting a through
route for their goods and giving the
interstate commerce commission the
right to initiate complaints and hold
up new ratings ana rate classifications
until sufficient cause shah be shown
for them.
It was said today that no bill has
been prepared by the administration
to carry out the presidents view as to
a federal corporation law. He will
leave the working out of this measure
to congress. He will, however, rec
ommend that the law be a voluntary
one The terms upon which charters
are to be allowed and licenses grant
ed will have to be included in the
law but it Is believed that no law can
empower the executive branch of the
government to revoke either a charter
or a license that such revocation can
come only through the courts.
