ULTIMATE PLAN OF ADMINISTSATION Is Doubtless to Annex Cuba, But First Give It In dependence. 'Wahslngton, D. C.. July 25- For the mo ment the subject of the relation of the United States to that of the Cuban Repub lic. to which ocr allies, Gomez and Garcia, owe allegiance, disputes with ocr Porto Rican exepdition and the Philippine sitca tion, for prominence in public attention and in ogieial consideration. There is no doubt of the present polcy of the adminis tration toward our Ccban allies. in recognition of their three years of heroic struggle and sacrifices for the ittd?- pendenee of Cuba, and in reward for their assistance and co-operation in the pasifl cation of the island by the United States, they are to be shown high consideration. ■During the continuance of the work of pa cification they are to be treated with cor diality and honor, as brothers-in-arms in a common and glorious cacse. At the end of the war thehy are to be accorded cheer felly such prominence in civil affairs of the new Republic of Cuba as grateful Re publics are wont to bestow upon the mil itary heroes of their wars for indepen dence. There is no doubt whatever of the ulti mate annexation of Cuba to the United States, but first there will be a Republic of Cuba to give away the bride. Then during the short existence of the Cuban Republic the United States will insist upon such favorable trade relations toward this country, and such political considerations, as are due to the eo-liberator of Cuba. From the tit st there will be such an in flux of capital ar. I enterprise and skilled labor from the United States into Cuba as must dominate Cuban polities. This influx has already begun into Santiago. 11. F. Flagler, of New York: the Grace Brothers, of New York, and a host of New York and Philadelphia capitalists are al readp planning for commercial, industrial and residential invasion of Cuba and Porto Rico The total plan looks also to the pea.-etui acquisition of Santo Domingo and Haiti, and the eventual erection of the thro, islands into an island state of the United States the state, let us say, of West India. ■But the Cuban Republic must eonie first, and Cuban patriots must have that share In it that they have earned by their heroic struggle for liberty. The word of the ■United States, given to all mankind when war with Spain began, will be made good beyond cavil. There is high authority for saying that this substantially is the policy and expec tation of the administration. It remains only to say that in the Shafter-Garcia in cident.

It Is Conceded bv the War Department that He Is There Now. CHICKCAMAUGA TROOPS Will All Be Aboard Transports at Hampton Roads by Wed nesday. Washington, July 25—General Brooke, commanding the First army corps, will sail today from Newport News to Join General Miles at Porto Rico.

It is reported that the boarding of a German steamer off San Juan, Puerto Rico by a launch from an American naval vessel is taken at the war department as confirmed of the belief that .Miles has ar rived there. It is recalled, however, that some of the vessels of the auxiliary fleet have been blockading San Juan and it may lie that it was a launch from one qf these vessels instead of those from Gen. Miles' tleet that was seen by the German vessel. However, the department has no doubt that Miles is off Porto Rico. WILL APPEAL TO THE POWERS. Morrocco Determined to Re main Neutral in this War.

Instead we have been treated with every courtesy. session of the vessel. This was also the ”1 fear the Spaniards would not have been as kind to an American merchant crew.

THIHTEIED WITH PfNHTV In the Extreme if They Interfere With the Government of the Americans. New York, July 25 —A dispatch to the World from Santiago says: The Cuban insurgents encouraged by the correspondents of a sensational New York newspaper are retarding the work of mil itary Governor Wood in restoring order in the city. They are still disgruntled because tho town will not be delivered over to them. The Spaniards are accepteing the change of government in Santiago with good grace. The insurgent forces have left the American eamp and gone some miles into the interior. They have been warned under a threat of the extreme penalty not to molest the Spanish residents or return to the old system of brigandage. Fifty funerals took place here yesterday of refugees who died as the result of the scarcity of food at El Caney. Santiago is still short of food and the streets are full of beggars.

BREAKERS AHEAD It Is Feared Are Indicated by Amiison’s Letter. Washington. July' 25 —General Ander son’s report from Manila is regarded in administration circles as notice that there are “breakers ahead.” The news is un pleasant, but not wholly unexpected. For : several weeks there have been increasing : signs that the self-esteem of the natives was undergoing rapid development. It is regarded as having reached the highest stage in Aguinaldo’s declaration of a dic tatorship and martial law. There might be alarm over the new con dition of affairs but for the fact that Ad miral Dewey is on guard. He has solved so many problems in such a masterly ; manner that the administration considers I him equal to any emergency, and so there is serene confidence that he will be able to handle the festive Aguinaldo in his new I role. Dewey has displayed such excellent judgment in every situation that the policy has been not to impede him with orders He has refrained from entering Into an ' alliance wi:h Aguinaldo. There Is a strong belief that Dewey’s i first move will be to take Manila in co- I operation with the army. That .will place the capital and the chief seaport in pos i session of the Americans. Then the invaders may proceed at their leisure to deal with the natives in the jungle. The new system of taxes to be enforced by the Americans, which will be only half as burdensome as the Spanish tolls, and the object lesson afforded by wholesome government will be depended ■ upon to win many of the natives from the dictatorship. If it shall be decided to keep I the islands, the army will need to look after the rebels. The first object, how ever. is to keep the natives in check and i out cf Manila. The plan is to let Aguinaldo go forward with his Republic: but the real power in the island will be Dewey and his squadron, reinforced by troops. LOWENTHAL.

Demonstration Was Looked for at a Theatre a Few Days Ago, but Did not Materialize.Z Paris, July 25.—Private letters from Madrid under date of July 23d, say the in ternal disorders in the Spanish provinces continue. Some demonstrations have taken place., generally supposed to be due to opposition to the war and local disputes, but In view of rigorous censorship on all questions of public order it is difficult to ascertain the facst. At Gargia the mob recently fired on the gendarmes and an armed band, sai l to have been composed of jail birds, appeared at Ganoe and Valdores. The efforts of the au thorities to capture them were futile. Great precautions were taken in the open air theater in Buen Retiro gardens at Madrid on Friday owing to an expected demonstration in favor of AVeyler, who w-as present, but nothing developed.

Got After the Preacher in a Church and Is in Trouble. New York, July 25 —Moses Kaufer, of Newark, hit upon a new' plan for collect ing an old debt, but in executing it he was roughly handled. Kaufer happened to be a member of the congregation on Friday night, when Abraham Issler, who was sit ting up in front, lifted up his voice in prayer and said: “Oh, how thankful I am that I owe no man a dollar.” “What about the $8 coming to me?” asked a voice in the rear. “Who are you?” asked Sssler. “Moses Kaufer, the mason, and you owe me $8 for work done.” “The work was badly done,” said Issler, naturally irritated at an interruption in such circumstances. Then Issler went back to the rear of the room where Kaufer was, and, after a “mix-up,” he ejected him. Kaufer promptly secured a warrant for Issler’s arrest, and the subsequent proceedings will be conducted in a police court. BRYAN’S MEN Are in Splendid Condition Says the In spector.

NOT HIS FAULT. A Statement as to lhe Cause of Wreck in the Central Yard. The News cheerfully gives space to the following, which explains itself: S. W. Junction, July 23, 1898. Editor Macon News —Dear Sir: In the Macon News of the 22nd is an account of the collision that occurred in the Central yard, and it states that “The wreck was caused by the switchman at the junction putting the soldier's train on the wrong track.” You have unintentionally done me an injustice and I would thank you to ob tain from the general master of the Cen tral yards the fact. The switchman at the junction did not let this train in on the wrong track and then correct your state ment giving it the same prominence as the original account. I am the telegraph operator here and also have these switches in charge and am responsible for them, and the statement in your paper as it now stands is calculated to do me much in jury outside of the railroad officials whom I now work for. I hope your next issue will contain the correction. Very truly, W. G. Southall, Operator, S. W. Junction. An investigation of this matter by The News reveals the fact that an injustice has been done the switch-man at the junction. An official of the road said todav to a News reporter that the collision was m no sense the fault of the switchman, and positively declined to place the blame on any one. MASSEY WILL SUPERINTEND I The Shipping of Spanish Prisoners from Cuba to Spain. Sandusky, Ohio. July 25—Lieut. S. F. Massey, United States army, of this city, who was placed on the retired list a few years ago, will sail from New York today for Santiago on the Olivette.

Report of the Committee this Afternoon Will Recommend Investigation. HIGHEST IN THE STATE. Will Confer with the Macon Gas Light and Water Company and Come to an Arrangement. The Chamber of Commerce holds an im portant meeting this afternoon for the purpose of hearing the report of the com mittee appointed at the last meeting to look into Jhe question of rates for water and for gas charged by the Macon Gas Light and Water Company. It is charged that Macon is paying en tirely too much for both gas and water and that the rates in this citv are very much higher than they are in any other city in the state. The report of the committee this after noon will be to the effect that the rates are too high and they will recommend the appointment of a committee to act as a commission with the Macon Gas Light and Water Company and if possible adjust the rates on a fairer basis titan they are at present. The committee this afternoon will make no report on the question of gas rates as they have not yet got all the necessary data at hand. There has been a considerable amount of interest in this matter and if the Chamber of Commerce succeeds In bring ing about a reduction of the rates the strength of the organization will be ma terially increased. IMPROVED GRADES On Baltimore and Ohio on Third Divi sion. The receivers of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad have turned their attention to the improvement of the grades on the Third division from Cumberland to Gofton, or rather that portion which lays between Altamont, the top of the seventeen mile grade, and Terra Alta, where the Cran berry grade begins to descend. The line passes through Deer Park and Oakland and crosses what is known as the “Glades” of tfie Alleghany Mountains. The grades are short and choppy, some of them being eighty to eighty-five feet to the mile. One of the first pieces of work to be done Is now in progress at No. 56 cut where the grade is 'being reduced f rom eighty-one feet to forty-two and a half feea per mile with equations for curvature. It is expected that the cutting down o.f this grade will enable the receivers to in crease the train load from 1,000 tons to 1,300 tons on eastbound trains. One mile of the roadway will be lowered and it is expected that the work will be completed by the middle of October. DOWN TO DUBLIN. Citv Officials Have Gone for the Purpose of Eating Peaches.

Stubbs, of Montrose. The party was escorted by Mr. .J. A. ■Wright, the general manager of the- Macon and Dublin railroad. SHREWD~PLAY. > lhe Forming of Watson’s Squadron Nothing But a Bluff. New York, July 25—d’he Tribune this morning says of the abandonment of the project to send Watson to Spain: "The organization of a ‘raiding squad ron’ and the preliminary order to Com modore Watson, were the outgrowth . of Admiral Camara’s departure from Spain for the Philippine Islands. The squadron was constituted on June 26, the day after the Spanish fleet reached Port Said, and only after the navy department was con vinced beyond a doubt that Admiral Ca mara bad actually paid toll for his fleet through the canal, demonstrating that Spain was not ‘bluffing,’ but really in tended her last remnant of naval force to attack Dewey. The war board immediate ly adopted Captain Mahan's plan to send a strong fleet across the Atlantic to menace Spain and to compel Admiral Camara’s return for the defense of the peninsula itself, 'lf the Spanish admiral failed to accept this challenge, and continued toward the east, Commodore Watson was directed to follow him with all possible dispatch. The mere announcement of the scheme, as it was shrewdly calculated to do. together with the pitiable condition in which Ad miral Camara found the strongest mem bers of his fleet, after he had passed the canal, resulted in his prompt return to Spain, and nullified the immediate object of Commodore Watson’s cruise. “It is stated advisedly and upon the highest authority that the president has never contemplated an attack on Spain except as an extreme resort te. terminate the war.”' LOSING HIS MIND. The Captain of the Vizcaya Is Acting Strangely. Annapolis, Mr., July 25 —There has been a rumor here since the arrival of the Span ish that Captain Eulate. of the Vizcaya, was a tyrant aboard ship and that he de liberately shot his men because they could not man the guns in the face of -«he Amer ican fire. iCaptain Eulate is acting strange ly and keeps aloof from the other officers. It is thought he is losing his mind. HOBSON IN NEW YORK Making Arrangements for ths Saving of the Colon. New York, July 25. —Lieutenant Hobson returned to the city today after a second visit to Washington since the landing of the St. Paul on Friday morning. While in Washington he again conferred with Secretary Long concerning the sav ing of the Cristobal Colon. Upon returning to the city he went to the office of the Merritt & Chapman ■Wrecking and Derrick Company to com plete preparations for righting and pre serving the Colon. CARS, ICE AND CRATES SHORT, Will Make a Difference of at Least Fifty Thousand Dollars. HO HELP FOB II IB* So Far as the Cars Are Concerned, But the Crate Famine Is Still a Bad Feature. Notwithstand the denial of the charge that there has been a shortage of cars on the Central railroad for the purpose of shipping peaches, it Is a fact that such a shortage has existed. Mr. Fleming, rep resenting the Armour Refrigerating Car people said this morning that there had been an unavoidable delay in getting a sufficiency of cars but that it had existed only for a f >■ days and that it was now all right ;•?,.! that from this time out there would be no delay and no shortage of re frigerating ears or cf ice. I cannot deny that we were shott ot cars for some days last week, and he said that it caused the growers and ourselves a considerable amount of worry. But it was unavoidable and we have now rectified the matter. “The fact of the matter is that we all underestimated the crop and the rush has been tremendous.” It seems that the crate famine i# what is going to do the damage. It is estimated that this famine or shortage of crates will cost the growers not less than a hundred cars of peaches. This means a loss of something like fifty thousand dollars. The crop has been everywhere under estimated . At Fort Valley and Marshall ville they have already shipped the num ber of cars that it was estimated the en tire crop would make. TOOK CHARGE THIS MORNING. Mr. 0. M. Grady Has Received the Predicted Appointment as Superintendent, The appointment of Mr. O. M. Grady to the position of superintendent of the Geor gia Southern and Florida railroad was made on Saturday. This appointment was predicted by rhe News some days ago. The selection of iMr. Grady to succeed Mr. Jeff Lane, whose death was .o univer sally regretted by the officials of the road and the people generally' is a popular* one Mr. Grady has been with the road for a great many years and is perhaps one of the best equipped practical railroad men In the state. He took charge of the office today and will report to the vice president, Mr. Cleokley Shaw. BIG BARBECUE For Soldiers' Relief Fund Will Be Quite a Success. The big barbecue to be given at the Log Cabin Club for the benefit of the Soldiers Relief Association will be in charge of Messrs. Ellis Talbott and Nat. Winship. Two better men could not have been se lected for the work and something out of the ordinary may be looked for. FOR SIX CENTS A Square Yard the Southern Company Will Keep Streets in Repair. The paving question will again come up before the city council tomorrow night and it is more than probable that council will determine to use asphalt in the paving of some of the streets. In fact a resolution will be passed accepting formally the bid of the Southern (Asphalt Company and stating that when any asphalt paving is done it will be done with this material. The company guarantees the pavement for five years and after that time will keep it in repair for 6 cents the square yard. GRESHAM MEMORIAL Work on It Will Commence in Next Ten Days. Work on the Gresham Memorial build ing will commence seme time next week in all probability. The laying of lhe foundation stone of the new building will be an event in the his tory of Macon and the directors of the hospital are preparing a special program for the occasion. NEW COMMITTEE ORGANIZES. Meeting Heid at the Court House Today to Elect Officers. The new County Democratic Executive Committee met at the court house at 11 o’clock this morning for the purpose of perfecting permanent organization There was a large attendance and the business of the meeting was quickly dis posed of by the election of Mr. B. M. Davis as chairman and Mr. Tom W. Loy les? secretary and treasurer. Mr. Davis hesitated to accept the chair manship, saying he was probably not ae-; tive enough in -politics. It was the sense of the committee that this was just the sort of chairman needed, and Mr. Davis was prevailed upon to accept. There was no other business before the i committee, so It adjourned in short order. ' SIX INFANT CORPSES Found in a Vacant Lot of Roxbury, Mass.
