SERIOUS TURN IN CUBA.

The landing of troops in the neighborhood of
Guantanamo has given the Cuban situation the most
serious turn it has yet taken, at least is symptom
that those in touch with the situation regard it as
most serious. 1t has been impossible, at this dis
tance from the of the trouble, to tell just how
grave the uprising s and heretofore there has been
disposition to discount it.
A general impression has prevailed, ever since
American troops were last withdrawn from Cuba,
that if they ever returned it would be for perma-
nent occupation For this reason the actual landing
Of the marines has been watched with deep interest
here, and with degree of apprehension in Cuba.
Public sentiment in this country will not permit a
hasty occupation of the island because, for one
reason, there is lurking suspicion that there is
certain amount of political shenanigan at work under
the surface All this must be duly clarified before
intervention would be countenanced
And yet the fact remains that hundreds of mil
lions Of American dollars have been invested in
Cuba. 1t is to American enterprise, to large 'ex-
tent that the Transformation of the island is due
These investments must be protected, and if the
Cuban government is not equal to the task senti-
mental reasons will not prevent the Government OF
the United States from taking charge for as ndef
mite period as may be necessary.
