Havana, Feb. 16.-HeaVy fight
ing occurred last night between
rebels and government troops
near Hoyo, Colorado, II miles
west Of Havana. Several of the
rebels were killed.
Washington, Feb. 1.-two Ameri-
can warships were at anchor in Cuban
ports today. The Petrol, gunboat,
was at Santiago, which is held by reb-
els, and the Dixie, a repair ship, was at
Havana. Developments in the revolu-
tionary situation were not alarming,
but the ships will be held in Cuban
waters as long as there appears posi-
bility OF danger to Americans.
Minister Gonzales reported to the
state department today that no de-
struction Of property has occurred and
foreigners have not been molested.
President Menocars proclamation
promising protection to all loyal per-
sons regardless Of previous Affiliations,
relieved some anxiety that had been
aroused at the state department.
General Fernandez, commanding the
rebel garrison at Santiago, offered no
opposition to the entry into the harbor
of the American gunboat Petrol Con-
in Santiago have been
sternly treated by Fernandez, the more
prominent Of them having been made
prisoner.

Washington, Feb 16.-It was

of the utmost importance to news
paper publishers and relieve the
present situation Of prohibitiVe

The action OF the manufacturers
followed two days OF conference
with the commission and the pro-
posal was submitted to Francis j.

Vestipation. The manufacturers
hurried here eoon after IL was an

The manufacturers attribute the
high prices to the increased cost OF

that the cost of other papers besides
news print has gone UP since the out
break OF the war.

tender which is much more icono- elastic and which as yet has not been encountered seriously because ignored heretofore.
 How much further it may be ignored it would be unsafe to pre- dict. that it may not be ignored for much longer without great dan ger appears extremely improbable
 This machine influence upon the tender is finely and accurately de- scribed by Veblen, with becomingly deprecatory subtelty as due from a professor of a university that owes much to the Rockefeller family: "The machine process gives no in- sight into questions of good and evil, merit or demerit, except in point of material causation, nor into into the foundations or the constraining force of law and order. except such mechanically enforced law and order as may be stated in tCi HIS Ol pi lSlIpCl dLui NV- locity, tensile strength, etc The machine technology takes no cogni- zance of conventionally established rules of precedence; it knows neither manners nor breeding and can make no use of any attributes of worth. Its scheme of knowledge and of inference is based upon tte those of immemorial custom, authenticity, and authoritative en- actmeut. Its metaphysical basis is the law of cause and effect, which in the thinking of it's adopts has displaced the law Of sufficient req son..
 In consequence of this the only phase that evidences itself imme- diately is the elimination of the unnecessary, and the essential con dition to the existence or any thing, power, institution, person, authority is that the scheme of things is bet ter off with than without it.
