HAVANA. May 31.-Tnterest in Ha-

whether the United States gunboat
Paducah would land marines at Dai.

attacked. but that its assailants were
held in check by forty guards. who

Excitement In Havana.
There was great excitement this
evening In havana When several OF
the newspapers issued extra editions
announcing that a battle had taken
place not far from Santiago. in which

no battle. but that a collision had
taken place between National and
rebel forces. in which the formers
artillery was brought into play. appar-
emily with good effect. The extent OF
the casualties was unknown.

THEODORE ROOSEVELT.

New York World: Mr.. Roosevelt is
still the friend Of extortionate protec-
ton and Of the empty market basket
Observe this gem from his Jersey
speeches:
In the tariff for instance. be-
lieye in a protective tariff. but
want to see the benefit Of protec-
ton get into the pay envelope.
don't want to See it all stop at the
office.
In other words, it is all right to rob
the consumer II the manufacturer will
give little more Of the loot to his en-
ployes. That is the sort Of tariff reform
Uncle Joe Cannon and Nelson w. AL
drich are in favor Of. That is their ex-
cuse for extortionate schedules-to en-
able 1.-The benefit Of protection to get
into the pay envelope
TO be sure, If it has not got there
now it never will get there. If the man
ufacturer has not divided he never will
divide But If he does divide a little
more literally with his employees. then
the Payne Aldrich schedules are all
right. That is the logic of Mr.. Roose-
velt's argument The function Of the
consumer Is to be robbed.
The progressive movement in the re-
tariff revision to reduce the cost OF liv-
ing. 1t has ended in the third term
candidacy Of Theodore Roosevelt, who
Is as much Of a stand-patter as Smoot.
