NO MORE WARSHIPS TO CUBA
Four Arriving day Believed
Will Be Sufficient.

Washington. June 6--For the present at
least the four .'ileshps. comprising tho
fourth division o. Atlantic fleet. which
are due TO arrive in Guantanamo Bay to-
morrow. with The gunboat Paducah lying
of Daiquiri. will constitute all Of the United
States naval force 10 be assembled in Cuban
waters.
The state Department to-day signihed its
satisfaction with that part OF the naval
programme. and II there should be any
change involving the sending Of more ships
10 cuba Il must follow developments In the
situation not now expected.
The present intention is 10 keep the third
division II the fleet at Key West. so that
there may be an adequate force within i've
hours sail OF Havana to deal promptly
with any outbreak that might exceed the
power OF President Comes troops and po-
lice TO curb This precauton f. deemed
essential. not that there II any direct in
formation in the possession OF the state
Department TO the effect that an outbreak
Is impending at Havana. but there is much
doubt a. to the actual state OF mind OF
the laborers In cuba. The extent 10 which
politics may enter into the situation IL also
predetermined.
With the weapons already in the posses
sion Of the Cuban army. and those soon
to be- sent them from the United States
arsenals, 1t Is believed that the soldiers
will be amply equipped TO deal with tn"
scantly armed insurgents.
The real essential. in the opinion OF Cen
eral staff officers. is cavalry necessary TO
run down the exceedingly active in
surgents. who. for the most part are
mounted on stock they have Communicated
from the plantations.
A dlsconcerting suggestion from an army
officer with wide Cuban experience was
toner would instruct his followers to break
into small bands and surrender them
selves TO the American marines assigned
TO guard the plantations
The four battleships now on the way TO
cuba have on board nearly eight hundred
marines which will make the number i'm
mediately available fifteen hundred, with
West.
The Cuban governments responsibility
for any wanton acts by the insurgents will
not be lessened in any degree by the plac-
ing OF American marines In the interior
This was made plain at the State Depart
ment to-day. Army officers point out that
the relief OF Cuban troops from guard
duty, that they may fight tho insurgents,
will furnish a real test OF the ability OF
the Cuban government to handle tine stua-
ton.

CITY'S SHAPE BAD FOR TAXIS
Witness Tells Aldermen Fares
Could Not Be Lower.

Simon Kayton, president of the kayton
Taxicab and Garage Company, told sad
tale Yesterday TO the special committee OF
the Boa ID OF Aldermen that Is Investigate
ing taxicab rates. He declared That MS
company had lost tlll,0c in three years
and that it would be impossible for any or
the companies to live II rates were reduced
below the sO-Jo-cent basis.
He said the trouble did not lie in the fact
that the companies had to pay big rentals
70 the hotels for stands. but was due to
the elongated shape Of the city, which made
most OF the riding one-way travei. Ihere
were calls for about 1000 taxicabs to go
north after the theatres every Night ne
said. and of that number not seyenty-hVe
ever got any fare coming back.
"At one time" said Mr.. Kayton, our
dIrectors who live abroad most or the time,
suggested that We reduce rates as they
have them in Paris We put placards In
every cab saying that between the hours
Of & a. m. and $50 p. IN. person ridihg
in our cabs would have 10 pay only half
tho charge represented on the clock. In
few weeks we lost $500 and went oack 10
the old rates
Mr. Kavton acknowledged that he did
not know whether or not the drivers ma
the cards and charged the patrons the old
rates lust the same. He did know now
over that the company received only half
the clock charges
The only way he saw for taxicab com
,aries 70 make money in this city, Mr..
Kayton said. was to combine ana get as
many cabs housed under the same ROOF as
possible, thus cutting down expenses ma
| terlally.
George H. Hart an Independent VINO
reduced his rate. to 80 cents Tor the nr sr
,bareafter said that he had been oOllgeu
70 go back TO the higher rate.
