According to the lineup of Cab

is listed as Secretary, but accord

Admiral William H. Standley is
the head man.

Then Admiral S t a n d ey ap-

Cuban Red Students Fight
Yankee Imperialism

HAVANA, Sept. 7 G.N.SO. - A
manifesto calling upon all "com'
rades" to "join in a movement
against Yankee imperialism" was
issued by the left wing of the
student party here today as the
United States strengthened its
forces in Cuban waters.
A mass meeting of all reVolu-
tionary groups of Workmen and
country people was scheduled to
be held in Central Park late to-
day.
Meanwhile, arrival of the
United States destroyer Sturte-
want at Santiago has had calm
ing effect in the area where anti
American outbreaks and serious
fighting have been feared.
There were no clashes and no
looting there during the night or
early this morning.
Nevertheless, the commander of
the Sturtevant, after a conference
with Santiago Americans, decided
that in case of danger all United
States citizens should be con-
centrated at Las Cruces, on the
outskirts of the city, where the
destroyer could protect them.

The presence of American

Aware that all ships in Atlantic
waters were being prepared for
immediate action in Cuban waters
if necessary, the junta called a
hurried meeting before dawn in an
effort to pull order out of near
chaos.

reports of disorders, particularly
in the provinces, fomented by

Colony Concerned
The entire American colony
and the 200 or more American
tourists here showed particular
concern over the terrorization of
Mathew Molanphy, American
head of the United Fruit Com
pany in Havana, and his family
by radical members of the ABC,
political group, and by angry
stevedores.
Only the threat of Captain
Willmott, of the Ward liner
MORO Castle, that he would call
American marines to his aid
within five minutes turned the
mob back as it attempted to re-
move Molanphy and his family
from the liner, where they had
sought refuge.
The hackers of former Presi-
dent Mario G. Menocal were de-
cidedly against the new regime,
while the affiliations of most
other major groups remained
doubtful. All were united on the
general principle of restoring
order as soon as possible and
staving off American interven-
tion.
The position of Menocal aroused
the fear in some quarters that
he was preparing for a coup.

Orders to Havana
BY International News Service

All American naval vessels
in Atlantic waters were or
dered by the Navy today to
hold themselves in readiness
to go to Cuba on short notice.
, The orders were described as
precautionary, rather than indica-
tive of any new or serious turn in
Cuban affairs.

charge naval reservists on board
and replace them with full COM
plements of regular officers and
men.

Capt. R. A. White, commanding
the destroyer squadron, and were
issued by Admiral William H.
Standley, chief of naval opera
tions.
The destroyers Claxton. Taylor,

Bernadou, and DUPONT were At.
fected by today's order.

Expansion Plans
Departing from normal proce-
dure, each of the three battalions
has its companies lettered A, B, c

This was done, it was learned,
so that if the expected expansion
is ordered, each battalion will
serve as the nucleus of a new regi-
ment.
With close to 100 officers at
Quantico, attending the Marine
School, the projected expanded
expedition could be formed and
ready for the field within the
next few days.

lock for almost two hours.
The convention finally followed
the administration stand after
Louis A. Rosafy, of Washington,

The row was precipitated over
a question involving annuity &C

COAL DEADLOCK
DRAWS ACTION
BY International News Service

by International news service
The Administration took de-
cisive action today to break the
deadlock over a bituminous coal
code, but postponed a showdown
in the case of Henry Ford.
Following a series of confer
ences during which President
Roosevelt called coal operators
and union leaders to the White
House, the A d m n istration's
course was outlined as follows:
/. Coal operators will be given
until q. m. tomorrow to accept
a code of fair competition or
National Recovery Administra-
tor Hugh S. Johnson will pre-
sent it to President Roosevelt
for signature Saturday.
2. Urgent demands by the Ad-
ministration for an agreement
between Appalachian coal oper-
atorS and the United Mine
Workers of America may result
in the signing of a union con-
tract today.
8. The NRA will watch the
Ford plants for a violation of
the automobile code.
The drive of the NRA to COM
plete a bituminous coal code to-
day delayed action on the pro-
posed anthracite code. Deputy
K. M. Simpson,
in charge of coal codes, con-
ferred briefly with anthracite
operators but was forced to post
pone final consideration.
Committees representing bitum-
inous operators and United Mine
Workers officials were called into
conference at the White House
last night after Johnson had
wrestled during the day in an
effort To end the deadlock.

Trial of Joseph w. Hartman, for

July s, by Federal Judge William
Bondy, today, after a bitter at
tack upon Senator Ashurst and 9TH
er members Of the senate inves-
tigating committee by Harriman's
attorney. George s. Leisure, repre-
senting the ex-banker, who Is &C
cused of making IA false entries in
the books of his bank, asked for a
years postponement, charging that
Senator Nicely of West Virginia
had made highly prejudical re-
marks and that these remarks had
been repeated by, Ashurst.
The senate committee stirred
up such a prejudicial atmosphere
against banks and bankers" Leis-
ure said, that my client could not
be assured of fair trial. "Sena-
tor Nicely made statement. which
was cruel, unfair, cowardly and
utterly untruthful. II I had the
vocabulary OF a longshoreman l
could apply words more appro-
ate" The statement which Leisure
objected was in the form of cues
ton asked in Washington by Nee
ly, who wanted to know II 1t was
necessary TO encourage bank
president who had stolen more than
100000 from his depositors to
continue on a job which had been
so profitable"
