ANTI-ANER|CAN FEELING

RACE QUESTION UP AGAIN
UnwiIlingness of Natives to Work
Among the Many Problems
of the Island.

Havana. July 31.-The political situa-
son here is becoming more critical daily
and Is being aggravated by matters
growing out Of the race question. This
latter IS creating a very strong anti
American sentiment, and concessions
and monopolies are being distributed
which. when their import fully becomes
known. viii cause a strong protest from
washington. But a short time ago this
snu-American sentiment led to a plot.

xiii every American in one OF the inte-
-ior towns. a place Of more than $4,000
inhabitants.
However. It may be said that neither
The Spaniards nor the white Cubans are
RESPONSIBLE FOR this situation. Some OF
the spaniards and white Cubans who
have large interests here are in favor Of
American occupation until the island
can be put thoroughly at peace again
and its affairs placed beyond tamper-
,ncs and political ambitions Of a few
men who are alleged 70 be largely re-
sponsible for the present state Of unrest.
The race problem is perhaps the most
difficult question the government has TO
dea. with. At the present time negro
officials occupy many important Offices.
II was but a short time ago that the
question was seriously presented as 70
whether or not the constitution Of Cuba
prohibited marriage between whites and
blacks. and II was ultimately decided
that IL did not.
All these things. coupled with the dis
content manifested in virtually all
classes Of society, the unwillingness Of
natives 70 work. and the growing ten
dency to shirk manual labor. are con-
vfncing many that republican govern
