NEGRO REVOLT IN CUBA.

, Havana, Cuba, May PA band
Of negro rebels has raided many
places along the line of the Baymo
railway and robbed and maltreated
the inhabitants OF El Caney Del
Sitio. The district in which the ne
groes are operating is one Of the
richest on the island, and the otfl-
cials are greatly troubled.
The situation in Santiago province
is most alarming and it is believed
that unless the troops now there and
being hurried to the scene act very
promptly, they will be unable to re-
gain control OF affairs, and the inter-
vention Of the United States will be
necessary.
1t is generally believed here this
afternoon that President Gomez is un-
able to control the situation and that
Intervention is almost certain.

BRAZlL'S PROTEST

Washington, May 24.-That Brazil
through its ambassador here has in
dicated to the state department that
it will be inclined to regard the prose
cution Of the coffee trust as an UNI
friendly act against which it will en-
ter the most srious protest was made
apparent in statement from the En-
bassy to the effect that the "ambassa-
dor is now awaiting the action of the
department before taking up new
steps" Senor De Cana, the ambassa
dor evidently regards the coffee trust
matter as weighty diplomatic bur-
den, for he has studiously avoided in
terviews and the only word that it
has been possible to get from him
was the fact that he "vas waiting"
The ambassador had three audien-
ces with Secretary Knox relating to
the Coffee Trust. At the first audi
ence Secretary Knox informed the am
bassador that he had no. official mfor-
nation on the prosecution of the
trust. He sent over to the depart
ment of Justice for copy Of the brief
filed in the federal court at New York,
which is really all the official infor-
nation available, and gave the am
bassadcr a copy. At a subsequent in
tcrview De Cana is believed to have
informed Mr.. Knox that his govern
nent regards the $4,000 bags of cof-
fee which the U. S. proposes to seize
in New York, as the property OF the
Brazilian government.
The U. S. would therefore be selZlng
Brazilian property and Brazil coula
not but regard this action as an un'
friendly act. Mr.. de Cana contendea
that Herman Sielcken, the New York
banker was merely acting as the az
ent Of the Brazilian government.
Il can be stated on excellent auth
oritv that Mr.. Knox has taken no ac1
ion thus far toward holding up the
suit. The proceedings which are
scheduled for the New York federal
court this afternoon. will go toward
without any interruption as far as Mr.
Knox is concerned. II the application
for an iniunctio. is postponed, it is
stated it will not be because OF any
.clinp on the part of officials here.

ate. Following two crushing defeats
within one week. one at Conejos
and the other yesterday at Rellano,
the rebel chieftan is having difficult
time keeping his troops together long
enough to organize further resistance
to the advancing federrals.
The Mexican consul today declared
that private adYices he has received
show that the federal victory at Rel

Huerta is following the fleeing reb-
els and harrasing them with all the
cavalry under his command.
Even the rebels al .Iarez do not
attempt to conceal the fact that OroZ-
cos troops were routed. They eX-
cuse the defeat. however. on the same
ground they excused the rebel re-
verse at Conejos--that the federal
artillery was too powerful. making
it impossible for OrCzco's men 10 get
close enough to make numbers count.

UNITED STATES AND CUBA.

Washington, May 24.-Uncle Sam
does not intend to intervene in Cuba
unless it becomes apparent that such
step is absolutely imperative to
avert q condition of anarchy beyond
the control of the Gomez administra-
ton, or unless it develops that dep
relations upon Americans and their
property continue; at present the
administration thinks the covert
threat of armed force will be enough.
This was the way officials here
summed up the Cuban crisis. Seven
hundred marines are now en- route
to the American naval base at Guam
tanamo. Three gunboats are now
there. In diplomatic parlance this
demonstration is simply in case ne
cessity develops for protection of
Americans near Guantanamo-Just
now the fever spot of the rebellion.
In reality, it gives Uncle Sam the
nucleus of an army Of intervention,
should this drastic step be determin-
ed upon.
That President Gomez is making a
desperate effort to quell the negro
uprising was indicated in dispatches
to the State Department today. Gov
ernment troops are being rushed to
the disaffected provinces, and voIun-
tccrs are being enrolled. The Cuban
Legation today was Informed from
Havana:
"The situation is not serious. The
Government is able to cope with it."
State Department officials were
anxious that Cuba understand the
significance Of the mailed fist' that
Uncle Sam has barred in the dispatch
of marines. because it was felt that
if the island government appreciated
the significance of the move there
would be hurried move to crush the
rebellion. On January 16 Secretary
Knox issued an ultimatum that the
threatened trouble on account of the
activity of the Cuban Veterans AS
sociation must be headed off, under
penalty of intervention. Within
days, the cloud of rebellion was dis
sipated. While there has been no
mote" to the Cuban government III
the present case, the administration
action has been even more emphatic.
The hope here is that the Gomez
administration will see its significance
and crush out the disorder.
The United States does not want
to intervene, unless it is absolutely
necessary, because such a move costs
an enormous sum of money. The last
intervention totalled up to eight fig
ures.
The Cuban rebels are to be severe
iv dealt with. The government now
has over 1000 troops in the field in
Oriente province and they have been
ordered to show no leniency in crush
ing the rebellion. According to word
received here, by this means Cuba e1
poets to bring the revolt to halt
withing the next few days. The lack
of fighting seems to indicate that the
negroes are avoiding encounters,
their principle object being to destroy
property. Official assurance has bee
given to the U. S. that Cuba will do
all in her power to protect foreign
property.
Three hundred negroes are reported
to have gathered together in the VI
cinity of the city Of Matazas and
they threaten to cause serious trouble
