BUSINESS MEN YESTERDAY RE- SP0NDED WITH ENTHUSIASM
 TO THE MOVEMENT.

The special Sentinel-ReCord edition which is to have distribution in the hotels and generally about New Or leans just previous to the breaking of the crowds from that city next week, will be closed up today according to MCssrs Cohen and Levy, who believe that it will be necessary at least to get all the advertising in today ill or der to be certain that the edition shall get away in good shape 10 their dis triuutors who will put it in the hands of the interested public next week.
 "l regard this sending of special edition into the hands of large num- Der of people such as are noW gather ed at New Orleans as a most progress siye pice of advertising work for our city" said a merchant yesterday who gave good sized advertisement to the edition. He recognized that the paper would reach the crowd at time it was most appreciated, and when in- formation was most sought.
 Yesterday a general article of gen. eral information i'll behalf of this city was prepared specially for the first page of this big edition, and there is no doubt but that it will within itself attract many to come here who had perhaps decided to so back mort with the breaking of the season in New Or leans

Washington, Feb 1l-Rcports tell. ing of the spread of the liberal revolt in Cuba aroused such apprehension here today that Secretary Lansing ca bled a second warning to the people of the republic that the United States would not regard as legal any gov. ernment set up by violence. The mes sage went to Minister Gonzales at Havana and to every American consul, to be circulated all over the island.
 Mir Lansing pointed out the re sponsibility of the United States in connection with Cuba and intimated very clearly that revolution was not to be tolerated
 Minister Gonzales reports of the re- volt were submitted by the state de partment to the secretaries of war and navy as promptly as they were reyely- ed In neither of these departments was there indication that any war-lke move was being prepared in connection with the situation but because of the experience gained in two previous in teryentions military operations could be inaugurated in brief time without much renewed study of plans
 Official news from Cuba convinced the administration that the rebellion already has assumed greater propor- tions than had been anticipated The Cuban governments call for volun- teers served 10 support the successes claimed by the rebels
 Reports of the special election that was announced for today m Santa Clara and which was expected to de- termine the winner in the president ial election had not been received at the state department late today.
 Information already received from Cuba has made it appear that there vas no doubt that Dr. Alfredo Zayas. the liberal candidate. was elected One suggested cause for the present upris. ing was that it had been preoipitated by the president when he ordered the arrest of several civilians and army officers on the charge oI complicity in plot to depose him.
 The plan of the liebrals is said to have been 10 resort to force on May 70, if Menocal on that day refused to relnquish the presidency.

British Attribute Outbreak in Cuba to
 German Agents.

London, Feb. 14.-British officials are interested in the news of revou- tionary outbreaks in Cuba where they assert they have reason to suspect German agents have been at work for a long time.

Cuba. where according to papers seized at the same time Ger man agents had secured an oil conces- sion. IL is the belief here that the santa Lucia project was being develop ed by means of money sent from New York to Havana

 As the ship backed out into tho channel the New Jersey shores were dotted with persons who had been waiting nearby most of the day to see the liner depart.

Keeping Ones Temper.

If you get mad because things
don't go your way IL is a pretty good
sign that your way is not the true
way. 1t very often happens that a
mans good intentions are tainted and
ruined because he becomes incensed
when others do not agree with him.
A true service keeps one kind and
friendly. Whenever we see among
our correspondents one who is greatly
irritated at another and attempts to
burn tar on him, we feel quite sure
the doctrine he espouses is all wrong,
says the Ohio State Journal. When
we read a contribution In a cOntro-
versy we throw it aside Immediately
upon seeing an angry thrust, for we
say to ourself truth does not act that
way. When a man asks us to do some
thing we don't feel inclined to do and
gets mad at our refusal, then we are
quite certain we did just right. They
are weak persons who act a certain
way simply because they are asked to.
One should always have a faith in
what he does.
