U.S. MARINES LAND
At Havana for Protection of
American Interests.
excitement followed
President Palma Feared He Would
Be Unable to Cope With Situation
and Made the Request—Out¬
look is More SquaUy.
One hundred armed sailors from
the United States protected cruiser
Denver landed at Havana Thursday
evening and camped in front of the
president s palace in anticipation of
possible uprisings within or attacks
upon the city. The landing created
great excitement.
The America* flag is planted just
inside of the low stone coping sep
arating the castle grounds from O’Reil¬
ly street, which thoroughfare passes
between the camp and the Plaza de
Armas. The American sailors are arm¬
ed with regulation rifles with the ex¬
ception of a few, who carry revolvers
or carbines. Two field howitzers and
two rapid fire guns were sent ashore
with the sailors, and now point across
the pretty little park, a significant
warning to any one approaching the
executive headquarters of the Cuban
government with hostile intent.
* The whole business was done so
quietly and quickly that it caused
the greatest surprise. The reason for
the sudden landing of the American
sailors was a conference between Pres-*
ident Palma, Charge de Affaires Sleep¬
er and Co mmander Colwell Thursday
afternoon. On the occasion of the lat¬
ter’s formal call upon President Pal¬
ma, Mr. Sleeper asked the president
the direct question -whether he con¬
sidered that the government was able
to protect all American interests in
Havana unaided.
The president replied that he hoped
the government would be’ able to do
so, but himself suggested that it might
be advisable as a measure of precau¬
tion in the interests of the Ameri¬
cans, as well as for the maintenance
of order in general to land marines
in some convenient point, suggesting
the Plaza de Armas as the place. Mr.
-Sleeper and Commander Colwell, after
a brief conference, decided that the
landing should be made and at 5:30
o'clock the detachment under com¬
mand of Legislative Officer Miller be¬
gan going ashore, with arms, ammuni¬
tion and qamp paraphernalia, and took
tip a position commanding the ap¬
proaches to the palace.
The rebellion loomed stronger on
Thursday than ever. All the smaller
towns in Santa Clara province appear
to he all in the control of the in¬
surgents. Cienfuegos is in a state of
alarm. Railroad, river and steamboat
communication has been stopped. The
rebels outside of Cienfuegos continue
to receive reinforcements.
Warships to Girdle the Island.
A Washington special says: The
navy department has ordered the fol
lowing war vessels to proceed to Cuba
at once: the cruisers Minneapolis and
Tennessee, now at Philadelphia, and
(he cruisers Newark, Cleveland and
Tocoma. now f at Norfolk. The army
is being carefully studied by the re¬
sponsible ranking officers with the
view to quick, sharp and effective ac
tion in case its services are needed.
So far as can be learned there have
been no troop movements in this con¬
nection, although Thursday’s army or¬
ders provided for the return to the
United States from the Philippines of
the twenty-first infantry (sailing from
Manila, September 20), and the sixth
infantry, sailing October 10.

WARNING TO CUBA
Given in Communication to
Islanders by Roosevelt.
A THREAT TO INTERVENE
j Warring Factions Told
Are Plainly to
Restore Peace or Suffer Conse¬
quences—Taft and Acting Sec¬
retary Bacon to Visit Island.
At Oyster Bay, N. Y„ Friday, after
a protracted conference with Secre
tary of War T-aft, Acting Secietary of
State Bacon and Secretary of the
'Navy Bonaparte, President Roosevelt
addressed an important communica¬
tion to Cuba, and arranged to send
Secretaries Taft and Bacon to the
island to make a thorough investiga¬
tion of things there, and lend their
influence to restore peace.
The communication is addressed to
the Cuban minister to the United
States. Senor Quesada, and is an im¬
passioned plea to Cuba to realize her
responsibility as a self-governing re¬
public, and to restore peace in the
island. Her attention is called in no
uncertain language to the responsibil¬
ity which the United States bears
to the island, and the certainty that
such responsibility will necessarily be
exercised should peace not be pre¬
served.
The president says he has certain
information that the peace of the
island is now menaced and that Amer¬
ican property lias been destroyed.
Secretaries Taft and Bacon will go
by rail to Key West, Fla., and from
there the journey to Havana will be
completed on a naval vessel, probably
the cruiser Des Moines.
The conference which resulted in
the Cuban discussion began at Saga¬
more Hill shortly after 3 o’clock Fri¬
day afternoon, and continued until 10
o’clock at night
Secretary Taft said as he left Oys¬
ter Bay that he had no idea as to
the length of his visit to' Cuba. He
indicated that there would be no baste
in the investigation which would be
made there. Aside from this informa
lion, no discussion will be- divulged
by- those attending the conference, the
statement being made that Die letter
of the president was intended to cov¬
er the whole Cuban situation so far
as it was desirable to do so in the
public print.
The most significant paragraphs in
the president’s letter to Cuba are as
follows:
“I solemnly adjure all Cuban pa¬
triots to band together, to sink all dif¬
ferences and personal ambitions and
to remember that the only way that
they can preserve the independence
of the republic is to prevent the ne¬
cessity of outside interference by res¬
cuing her from the anarchy of civil
war. I earnestly hope that this word
of adjuration of mine, given in the
name of the American people, the
stanchest friends and well wishers of
Cuba that there aue in all world, will
he taken as it is meant; will be
seriously considered, and will be act¬
ed upon, and if so acted upon, Cuba’s 1
permanent independence, her perma¬
nent success as a republic, are as¬
sured.
“Under the treaty with your gov¬
ernment. I, as presidet of the United
States, have a duty in this matter
which I cannot shirk. The third arti¬
cle in that treaty implicity confeis
upon the United States the right to
intervene for rhe maintenance in Cuba
of a government adequate for the pro¬
tection of life, property and individual
liberty.
“The treaty conferring this right is
the supreme law of the land, and fur¬
nishes me with the right and the
means of fulfilling the obligation that
1 am under to protect American in¬
terests. The information at hand
shows that the social bonds through¬
out the island have been so relaxed
that life, property and individual lib¬
erty are no longer safe.’’
DISCUSS PURE FOOD LAW.
Government Hearing on Scope of the
Statute Begins in New York.
A. committee consisting of Dr. H.
W. Wiley of the department of agri¬
culture; S. N. North, director of the
census, and James I. Garry of the
treasury department, who were ap¬
pointed by tet of congress, began a
governmental hearing on the scope
of the new pure food law at New
York Menday. Nearly one hundred
members or representatives of lead
in firms in New York and other
cities throughout the United States
were present.

in a large part of the meat, sent in

of the condemned stuff was rotting
and much of it had turned green.

A Woman’s Back
Has many aches and pains caused by
weaknesses and falling, or other displace¬
ment, of the pelvic organs. Other symp¬
toms of female weakness are frequent
headache, dizziness, imaginary specks or
dark spots floating before the eyes, gnaw¬
ing sensation in stomach, dragging or
bearing down in lower abdominal or pelvic
region, disagreeable drains from pelvic
organs, faint spells with general weakness.
If any considerable number of the above

that will give quicker relief or a more per
manent cure than Dr. Pierce’s Favorite
Prescription. If has a record of over forty
years of cures, It is the most potent
invigorating tonic and strengthening ner¬
vine known to medical science. It is made
of the glyceric extracts of native medici¬
nal roots found in our forests and eon
tains not a drop of alcohol or harmful, or
habit-forming drugs. Its ingredients are
all printed on the bottle-wrapper and at

Every ingredient entering into "Fa¬
vorite Prescription ” has the written en¬
dorsement of the most eminent medical
writers of all the several schools of prac¬
tice-more valuable than any amount of
non-professional testimonials—though the
latter are not lacking, having been con¬
tributed voluntarily by grateful patients
in numbers to exceed the endorsements
given to any other medicine extant for
the cure of woman's ills.
You cannot afiord to accept any medicine
of unknown composition as a substitute
for this well proven remedy of known
composition, even though the dealer may
make a little more profit thereby. Fom¬
in forest in regaining health is paramount
to any selfish interest of his and it is an
insult to your intelligence for him to try
to palm oil upon you a substitute. You
know what you want and it is his busi¬
ness to supply the article called for.
