CUBAN CABINET
 HAS RESIGNED

Havana, Cuba, Aug. 9-(UP)-It was said in usually reliable quar- ter today that all members of the cabinet had placed their resigna- tions at the disposal of President Federeco Laredo Bru.
 It was explained that the resig- nations had been submitted to give the president an opportunity to re- organize his ministry and princi- pally to replace a few members.
 The members concerned, inform ants intimated, no longer enjoyed the presidents confidence.
 According to reports there were differences of purely political na- ture among cabinet ministers. There was feeling in some quar- ters that the resignations now re- ported to have been submitted might be withdrawn. There have been threats of a cabinet crisis for some time.
 Antonio Martinez Fraga, broth- CT of the Cuban ambassador at Washington, resigned as president of the house of representatives. Aug. as the result of disagree ments among members. His resig- nation was accepted by the house Friday.

 sion on Entertainments

Informal conference on the econ- omy program for the city will be held tomorrow morning with mem- bers of the Griffenhagen & Asso- ciateS' staff, of the subcommittee of the board of finance and prob- ably heads of some city depart ments attending.
 The finance boards committee in- cludes Major w. c. Judge, chair man, John H. Goss and Charles B. Jackson, and E. O. Griffenhagen, head of the financial survey firm, is expected to submit various recom- mendations concerning possible ad- justment of the city's financial structure. The meeting is expect ed to be first of a series which will see branches of the municipal government subjected to scrutiny for modernizing and practical pro- gram which will form basis for de- vising the 1889 budget.
 The finance board already has provided about $350,O0O in saving city costs to meet inadequate esti- mates of revenue and large welfare costs occasioned by the business slump. Of this amount, $192,000 is the 10 per cent city employees sal ary cut, ordered set aside for the exclusive use of the welfare depart ment, with the controller instructed to SC that no other department shall have call on this reserve.

Culhane's F orces In
 Readiness For Clash
Organization Proceeds in Anticipation of Primary
 Here for Control of Democratic Party

Lining up for possible primary light, adherents of Senator George T. Culhane outlined organization of the voting districts, recommended procedure as to financing and plan- ned meeting again with the Demo- cratic voters committee of Demo- cratic State Chairman J. Francis Smith, at meeting attended by about 200 persons last night at Hotel Elton.
 But the primary as development depends on whether the voters committee, as coordina ting agency, does not provide for voluntary re- tirement" of present Democratic or- ganization leaders. This last is the principal motive of the Culhane group, committed to no "compro- mise" that does not call for such change in party leadership.
 Chairman Reports
 Among the speakers, with Sena- tor Culhane presiding and report ing on progress of his move, to date, were Roger V. Connor, chairman of the subcommittee which met with Chairman Smiths group, who re- ported that the units were agreed that the Democratic party must present leaders and candidates who have the respect of the city,; that the Culhane committee had insisted on primary fight unless present leaders retire"
 Other speakers were Lester V.

DUNCAN VICTIM
 OF GANCSTERS
Gear" of Painters in Chi- cago Put on Spot in
 Labor Feud

Chicago, Aug. 9(UP)-James G. pungan, 36, business agent and 'czar" of the Chicago Painters union, slain last night by assassins, was the victim of rivals who long have been attempting to obtain tontrol of the union treasury, police selieved today.
 The killing was accomplished with he finesse of experienced gangland ,layers. Dungan was shot in front ef his home, while score of neigh DOTS watched, by man whom he apparently was acquainted. As he ,lunsped to the ground, an automo- bile, containing three men, drew up 70 the curb. The gunman jumped in, but before the automobile started away, one of the other men, his tac0 masked with a handkerchief leaNed out and fired four shots with B rifle. One struck Dungan in the back of the head, another ip the side.
 Persons on their porches or in their yards near by started to run to Oungan as the gunmen's auto- mobile pulled away. The man with the rifle, apparently fearful they would attempt to follow, menaced them with his gun. The crowd dropped back and the machine sped around a corner.
 Dclngan was se.ni-conscious. Police said he would not identify his as- saiants nor make a statement. He died two hours later.

Collision on Waterbury Bristol Road Early This
 Afternoon

Lonergan, John Martino, Eugene 'Sheehan, Cornelius J. Daly, George T. Ryan, Michael Whelan, Oswald Aubertin, all of whom made sug- gestions as to organization and pro- cedure, mostly along the lines of primary preparation.
 Senator Culhane warned the group that the time is short and that the new rules of the party probably will mean that primaries will be heNd between August 24 and 27.
 He pointed out that the primaries may be called on five-day notice and urged that the finance committees activities be completed before the next general meeting, Monday night, when the Smith committee members will be invited to be pres- ent. The subcommittee will meet again with the Smith committee shortly, it was announced.
 District Gatherings
 District meetings were suggested and, while the chairman pointed out that the primary has not defi- nitely been decided on, members re- ported progress and heard Senator Culhane outline organization in the voting districts, figuring on four committee members to each district with about 10 aides each.
 If we are not in accord (with the Smith committees program) |, we are ready and willing to go into a primary, unless something hap pens in the interim" Senator Gull hane remarked. If primary is to be held it will be between the hours of 4:30 until g p. m., on one of the days stated. The town com- mittee can call for primaries on five-day notice."
 A list of other committee mem- bers will be presented today, he said, and the next general meeting was set for Monday night when he urged that everyone attend.
