REFUTEs FALSE REPORTS.
Havana Man Denies Statements Re-
EardinE Cuban Loan.

In reply to many misleading state
ments recently made public, NJ. Adelan-
tado, a newspaper man Of Havana, Cuba,
who is now in Washington, has the fol-
lowing to say regarding the municipal
government Of that city:
The Cuban press, and especially the
Havana newspapers, are devoting a
great deal of space to the publication Of
President Gomez's last message to the
Cuban Congress, in which he asks for a
loan Of $11,OO0,O0O, to be applied to the
completion of the sewer system, the paw
ing Of streets, and the reconstruction Of
sidewalks Of Havana, as we'll as the
Improvement of the water reservoirs of
that city.
Together with this important mes
sage, there was submitted TO Congress
a document in which the disbursements
and the disposition made Of the prior
loan were fully and specifically present.
ed to the House as a Justification of
how the prior loan was disposed of. This
refutes the news published in some for
eign papers about the diversion of the
money of the first loan"

states and Cities Prevent Use OF
Public Drinking UtensII.

The crusade against the common drink
ing cup is progressing. Several States
and cities gave enacted laws or adopted
regulations against it. In the last re-
port of the Public Health and Marine
Hospital Service, the contribution Of DR..
Henry Albert, State bacterfologist Of
Iowa, is made prominent feature.
DR.. Albert states that out Of twenty
two drinking cups which were examined,
two contained diphtheria baciIli, seven
teen had pus-producing bacteria, and IN
three were the germs Of pneumonia and
other bacteria. The Iowa Board of
Health has adopted a regulation pro-
hibiting the use of the common drink
ing cup in all public places, and this
example will doubtless be followed by
many other progressive States.
