troops within q &c hours embarka-
ton point.
When Secretary OF War Dickinson
and Brig Clarence Edwards,
chief of the bureau of insular affairs
OF the war department, visited Cuba
in November, last year, they were
startled and amazed by the disrupted
and corrupt conditions which they
found existing there.
1t was on the strength of their 70
port and those of John B. jackson,
minister to Cuba, that the admins
tration deemed it advisable to have
troops and munitions of war in readi-
ness for immediate use. Leading off,
GERS Of the army do not believe that
the American flag can be planted In
Cuba without bloodshed.
According to reports Ia the war and
state departments, it has been tho
practise of the United States pro-
tege president in Cuba, Jose Miguel
Gomez, that has led to the ,undoing OF
all that Gen. Leonard Wood, Presi-
dent Taft and Governor Magoon did
to put the government on substan-
tial basis. These reports state that
many measures have been pushed
through the Cuban legislature for the
benefit of special interests.
Officers of the army familiar with
conditions in Cuba liken them to
those in Corea, saying the only differ
sence is that the factions in Cuba have
not reached the poisoning stage and
that they would rather have fevolu.
ton than proceed along the same
lines as did Corea before being an.
nexed by Japan. These officers say
they look for final Intervention by the
United States within three months.
