INTERVENTION in
CUBA IMMINENT /?
Financial Condition Of Island Re-
public Reported to Be in
Bad Shape. r..
WILSON SENDS GEN. CR0WDER
Political Situation Also Threatens
Armed Conflict Between Opposing
Factions-Moratorium and FL
nancial Crisis Continues

Washington, Jan. 5.-Intervention
in Cuba by the United States again
has become a possibility and Presi'
dent Wilson has sent Maj. Gen.
Enoch Crowder, Judge advocate gen.
eral, to the island to study the situa'
ton.
The financial and political situation
in Cuba, which threaten an armed con-
fiict between the opposing factions, is
the cause of the American govern
ment's action.
Gen. Crowder sailed on the q. S. s.
Minnesota. Secretary Tumulty said
his mission was ito confer with Presi-
dent Menocal regarding conditions in
Cuba.'
Situation Is Grave.
"The moratorium and financial
crisis in Cuba continues" White
House statement said, "the solution
of which appears more difficult on &C
count of the unsettled presidential
election. A continuation of the pres
ent situation would prove most detri-
mental to the prosperity Of Cuba and
harmful to the relations between the
United States and Cuba.
"As this can not but be matter
of the closest concern to this govern.
ment because of the special relations
existing between the two countries
the President has instructed Gen.
Crowder to confer with President
Menocal as to the best means of
remedying the situation"
Up to cubans Themselves.
Direct supervision of the Cuban b.
elections, which it is conceded must
be held, will not be undertaken by the
United States, it was authoritatively
stated. unless 1t becomes more ap-
parent that the Cubans are unable to
manage them honestly and efficiently.
The election on November ! was the
first held under the provisions Of the
new electoral law drawn by Gen,
Crowder. The act provided that all
disputes must be settled by the courts
within certain time after they are
filed. .sr.as- .r1.E 49,.
In many cases the time limit has
expired, but only few decisions have
been made and they have been ap-
pealed to the Cuban Supreme court,
making it improbable that a definite
adjustment can be had for many
weeks, it was said.
See Unnecessary Delay.
A conflict has developed between
the new elections act and Cuban civil
law, officials said. The Havana gov
eminent had asserted that the cases
were proceeding as quickly as posi-
BILE under court procedure, but evf
dence of dilatory attitude has been
seen by the American officials, which
is believed to have prompted the dis.
patch Of Gen. Crowder on his new
mission.
The number of election contests
make 1t impossible to determine
whether Zayas or Gomez was elected
to the Cuban presidency and it Is
possible that if the charges of fraud
and Irregularities are sustained In
enough cases that second elections
may be held In a great part Of the
island, 1t was said.
