today no speck of dirt Is to be seen,

that wrnld not discredit a New 1 ork
hospital, end the patients have every

In the old days the governor of the
province used to pay a visit to the

fying the hospital official* several days
beforehand of his Intended call, so tha*
by tbe time of his arrival all that look
ed unpleasant wr*s carefully hidden out

J Oea. Rafael de Cardenas, the moat
' Important Cuban leader in thl* prov

douted the good faith with which the
.Americans lifted iheir hands to free
Cuba and to ate ire It* Independence,
end he to aure. If an independent re
public la not established ia the island.
It will not be because the Americana
will uae fotce to prevent It or tn con
quer the inhabitants. He believes that
tbe American military occupation will
lie abort, because the people will keep
good order and prove their capacity
for aclf-govcrnmcnt
Among tbe Military Committee of
the Cuban Aaaembty, who are no*v .it
Mariano, the same good impression
was made. The subatanre of that part
of tbe mreeaee relating to Cuba has
been telegraphed to the Cuban leaders
