 Washington, June 11.-Naval officers are clearly of the opinion that their task of policing eastern Cuba will be a long one. for today's orders show that colliers gre being made ready to carry coal and other supplies to the vessels in Cuban waters sufficient to meet their needs for many weeks to come. The collier Hector Is scheduled to leave Hampton Roads next Monday for Key West, and probably will proceed from there to Guantanamo. The collier Celtic Is also under orders to leave Boston within fortnight, and her cruise also in all probabality will end at Guam tanamo.
 Tho little gunboat Petrel, now on her way from New Orleans. will receive or ders at Key West directing her to some Cuban port not yet selected. Aside from these additions the navy department does not contemplate ordering any more ships to Cuba just now or at all Unless the dis orders should extend much beyond the present limits. That this may be the case is indicated by dispatch from the commander of the gunboat Paducah that great uneasiness exists at Santiago and in that vicinity, while the reports of the early day were of ominous movements on the part of the insurrectos and of appeals for help from plantation owners.
 From one source came a rumor that touched the integrity of the Cuban gov erLment to the effect that Cuba itself had fostcred the insurrection for certain polit- ical purposes, but that the movement had now gotten beyond its control. The state department declares it knows nothing to confirm this rumor, but 1t is certain that the report is finding wide circulation on the south coast of Cuba.
 There was more talk today at the war department about the advisability of send ing some army officer of high rank to Cuba to make an impartial investigation or the conditions there, and if possible to act as an intermediary in restoring peace between the factions. In addition to the name of General Wood. preached yester- day, that of Judge Advocate General Enoch Crowder has been brought for ward. He performed valuable service in Cuba while the island was under Amer fcan occupation, and practically renovated the entire judicial system. While in Cuba, as in the Philippines, he succeeded in se- curing the unlimited trust and confidence Of the natives. and was unlformly cessful in composing their faetonal quar- rels.
 As 1t is the common belief that if in tho end intervention in Cuba is a neces- sity, there must be sweeping changes in the ordnance law of the republic to guard against the recurrence of the conditions which have made the present instruction possible. For this reason General Crow der's friends have urged that his legal ability would peculiarly fit him for the position of head of the temporary gov ernment of intervention

ANOTHER APPEAL
 TO ARMY FOR AID

Washington, June 1.-The floods in Louisiana again have become serious, necessitating another appeal to the army for aid. A message to the war depart ment today told of the breaking of every protection levee west of Bayou La Fourche from La Badeville to the Gulf of Mexico. about 90 miles, covering almost every estate in the vicinity of the water.
 Major Normoyle at vicksburg, In charge of the army flood relief work, was in- structed to send an officer to aid in the relief south of New Orleans. The mes sage stated that thousands were made homeless by these breaks and the suffer- CTS were badly in need of rations and shelter.

 The committee added an additional re- striction to protect coastal traffic by re- quiring that a railroad owned ship pass ing through the canal must have at least 50 per cent of its cargo destined to a trans-oceanic port.
 The Senate committee changed tho House bill to provide that when the President prescribed the canal tolls they should not be changed except after six months notice by presidential proclama- ton and that no taxes might be levied on vessels of American registry in for eign trade if the owners agree to their use by the government in war or other public emergencies on payment of a fair actual value.

 Are Beyond the Law
 But the great and powerful poiti- clans, the representatives of bossism in politics and special privilege busl- ness who are now perpetrating the same kind of wrong on an infinitely larger scale, are immune because as yet unfor- tunately the law does not touch nom mating conventions.
 Nevertheless the wrong they commit against the people is far greater than the wrong done the people by the lit- tie politicians such as those have spoken of: for these men are engaged In thwarting the right of the people to express their will as to who shall hold the highest office in the gift of the people. the presidency of the United States. Mir Taft assumes. and Messrs. Barnes. Penrose. Mulvane and company assume, that the presidency is to be treated as gift within the bestowal of the politicians in defiance of the duly expressed wish of the people.
 Such conduct comes dangerously near being treson to the whole spirit oi our institutions, to the whole spirit Of democratic free government. l do mol believe that the people will tolerate such conduct nor do I believe that sober republicans will consent to sec the re- publican party sacrificed to please the bosses whom the party has repudlated
 If the national committee continues as 1t has begun I believe it's action will be repudiated by the convention General Leonard Wood. chief of staff of the army. in discussing the accident said the science of aviation has now passed the experimental stage. and its progress would not be stayed by the dis aster at College park. The occurrence he considered would tend to make the army aviators more careful.
