gun that is not as dangerous as toy
pistol for it won't work.

space To complaints and criticism
toward the united States emanating
from fugutives from Haiti. These
fugutives charged the United states
with having prosecuted a weak people.
SOME PAPERS COMPLAIN.
Some OF the Havana newspapers
complained because General Crowder
was sent here without the United
States Government FIRST making In
quiry OF the Cuban government as
to whether he would be persona
grata. They complained that the
American action was arbitrary. nrst.
because the Cuban government was
not formally notified In advance by
Washington; and second. because
General Crowder came In a United
states warship. General Crowder Is
making his headquarters upon the
warship.
This impression, unimportant at
the start, is dying out.
Cuba's troubles date back to the
prediction period, the election kav-
ing taken place In November. Ex-
President Jose Miguel Gomez. in con-
sequence OF the absence OF strong
opposition. appeared to be about to
run away with the presidency. He
obtained from the Cuban congress an
amendment to the Crowder law per-
hitting political coalitions or
mergers. Thus the element OF the
Liberal Party led by DR.. Alfredo
Zayas.. perennial candidate for the
presidency, and powerful leaders
were Induced to cast their lot with
the conservatives of whom President
Menocal was the leader.
GOMEZ NOMINATED.
In order to accomplish his coalition,
President Menocal was obliged to
throw overheard his friend, Gen. Ra-
fael Montalvo, who had been regu-
larly nominated for the Presidency
by the Conservative party. President
Menocal on his part accepted Dr..
Zayas. who up to that moment had
been the political enemy Of the con-
servatives.
General Gomez previous to this had
succeeded in wrestling control of the
regular Liberal party from Zayas.
Gomez was nominated for the Presi-
dency.
1t should be explained here that
Gomez and Zayas were implacable
political enemies. Their feud began
in 1908, when Zayas accepted second
place on the national ticket with the
understanding that he would have
the support of Gomez for the Presi-
dency in 1912. When Gomez was de-
feated in 1912 he conceived tho opin-
ion that II was through Zayas' influ-
er,ce that he had been beaten.
In 1916 Zayas ran against Menocal
himself and Gomez started q revolu-
ton while the result was still pend
ting in February, 1917.
Gomez was brought to Havana,

BANKS ARE EFFECTS.
The most serious phase OF the situa-
ton Is that caused by the moratorium
which has now been extended twice
since II was originally declared on
October 10. When the moratorium
was declared a run was threatening
to empty the Spanish, the national
and international banks.
Banking supervision as practical in
the United States Is unknown In Cuba.
Runs on banks in question took place
on Saturday. and President Menocal
heard appeals on Sunday. 1t was then
he decreed the oratorium until Do
cember 1 requiring banks to pay only
10 per cent of their obligations. This
moratorium was extended until Janu-
airy / and again to February 1.
new bill fathered by Senator
Cosme Della Torriente. secretary of
state In the first Menocal cabinet,
would now extend the moratorium
until June 1, requiring liquidation of
bank deposits and commercial &C
counts in stated payments in the
meantime. The bill provides that
banks which do not accept tho pro-
visions must liquidate Immediately.
MONEY IS TIGHT.
Congress has been unable to get q
quorum because the members were
away mending their political fences
and because the liberals would not
meet with the conservatives
Some immediate problems arc:
There Is no money to finance the
new sugar crop. Gambling in sugar
futures jeopardized some Of the
largest Cuban banks, the moratorium
following drop in sugar from "a cents
to 4 cents a pound.
A steadily growing depression since
the moratorium was declared, docks
becoming congested with wares
owing to inability of merchants to
meet drafts or pay duties.
