WASHINGTON, Feb. 16.-A sug- gestiOn that an American commission review the returns from Cuba's presi- dential election. over which an armed revolution has developed, was con sidered at the state department to- day as one possible solution of the situation. Although reports received here do not indicate that the revolt ing liberals have made much headway the United States government is deep iy concerned lest the movement as sume more definite form with the voting February 20 in Oriente prov ince, where the deciding votes in the presidential contest may be cast
 No decision regarding a review of the returns was reached today. The suggestion grew out of a declaration by Orestes Ferrara and Raimundo Cabrera, Liberal representatives in New York, that the party would re would abide by the result. It was said that there was no indication that the government party would oppose this form of solution
 Camaguey and several smaller towns are in the hands of the rebels but by far the greater part of the island is controlled by the government forces, and American Minister Gonzales re- ports indicate that they appear in no danger of losing control immediately.
 Until there is evidence that the midable revolt than now is apparent, it is indicated that the administration will take no steps looking to armed intervention.

BEWARE, AN EPIDEMIC!

Conditions which are, as yet, only threatening, but which may grow into the worst epidemic in the his tory of the Warren District exist the present tme The one key to the situation situation which would cause loss of life and of money. in business way in the hands of the residents of the region-PRE VENTION OF THE CAUSES AND CLOSE O. OPERATION WITH THE HEALTH AUTHORITIES.
 In another column of this mornings Review de- tailed account of the entire situation is printed Dr. c. H. Hunt, county physician and temporary city health officer is authority for the statements, as pub lished. They he counted upon as being neither overdrawn minimized.
 It is clearly up to the people of Bisbee and the other communities of the Warren District to live, strictly up to the rules laid down by the health authorities It is better be safe than sorry; and should an epidemic spread throughout this region, necessitating the closing of many business houses, the closing of the schools, and the death of many people those who violated the rules, exposed them selves to contagious diseases and generally over looked sanitary laws would have but them selves to blame.
 Less than year ago the business houses of the District quarantined. The theatres we're clos ed, the schools ceased to operate chairs were re- from all of the drug stores and other mercan tile establishments It is need less to that the weeks of business inacton many thousands of dollars besides eleven lives from that terrible aTic tion, cerebrospnal meningitis.
 Dr. Hunt is asking that the people cooperate with him. He is making any arbitrary rulings. He is taking every precautionary possible and is determined, so far it is in his power to that the health regulations enforced Prosecution will follow the failure of any person to observe them.
 It is perhaps natural failing of all but profess onal people to look askance at rulings which, some times seem unreasonable It is also natural to think that what q may do or what my family may do" is reprehensible. If danger could be centered only to those who violate sanitary regulations it would not be serious. The trouble lies in the danger of spread of disease and this danger actual at the present time in Bisbee.
 In order to avoid the very unpleasant consequent which follow in the wake of all epidemcs. involv ing the loss of life, time property let the people of the District consider thoroughly any regulations which may be made and follow the accredited officers orders.
