A<l'lr<’>s Franklin Hart. 112 W. 32<l St., N. Y vana ami a legislative body with t.wo houses It .’arried out in a measure the long pend ing plan of giving Cuba home rule by means of an autonomous government, hut while in name autonomous, it w.is contend ed by the Insurgent element that genuine homo rule was lacking and that this co lonial regime was a continuance of Spanish domination. It appea.rs. however, that, these colonial authorities are taking a very tictlxc part in the present negotiations and that there Is more or loss co-operation 'between them and the Spanish government. This <r. - atos a condition '.n which the United St ites must deal not only wit..» Spain, but with those who claim to rej.resent the island itself, free from Spanish control. The co lonial or autonomist administration is vei y thoroughly organized and eaci exert much Influence, (t established a regular legation in Washington prior to the war with espec ially prominent men of Havana on the staff, its numbers ?ii its ranks much of the wi-a'.t!i of Cuba and Haims Io stand for the cdue.ited Hasses as against the Insurgents and I literates. This makes two .list n. t Cuban class.-.-—the autonomists, who are co-operating with Spam, and the lusur g. tils, who are . pposed to Spat i. H now seems clear from the ofTlHal as well as from tl e press reports of Havana and Mmlrid that the autonomist govern ment Is taking up the Halm first adv.meed by Spain that many in.-l.b-nt.-il .iii -stloi s as to Cuba must be settled before the evacua tion begins. But tlie view among government officials hero is that the Cuban autonomists as well as the Spaniards have no questions to iidvatncc or settle before evacuation is de form ned upon. The tinm am.) place of evacuation is looked upon by the authori ties here as the only point involved and ther? is I'kely to b<- -a rude awakening if the pro-Spanish element, either as autono mists or as native Span aids, insists upon bringing in the determination of the Cuban debt, future forms of government rates • f tariff for Spain ami many other subjects as a preliminary to evacuation. The American comm ssloneis. according to the understanding here, will insist upon a strict a.ilier. nee to tile protocol for an Immediate evacii.it ion of the island, and if need be, will submit an ultimatum against Ink.ng up subsi.ii ii y qu. .-.ions on Cuba's future. While the <'ul.an colonial 'tov.rii nient is thus combining with the Spanish g ivornment in bringing forw.iid tlmse iti .Mental questn«:is. yet the opi lion was ex pressed today by a high diplomatic officer based on recent advi.-.s from Havana, t int a serious issue would be .averted and that t:i actual evacuation of 'lie Spanish troops from Cuba would begin w ithin tae m-xt month. But it also appears that the ev icuatlon will .over a mu.h longer time than his boon anticipated. There are some lOtt.'W Spanish troops in the island. Allowing l.tioh men on a transport and a v.-msel leaving every day it would take 10<> .lays, or over three months, for the evacuation. But tho vessels are not available for a trip every day for 100 consecutive days, so Hint the time for departure would probably far ex ceed three months. THE MARIA THERESA FLOATED Playa del Este. Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. September 25.—The wrecking company en gaged. under Lieutenant Hobson, in the work of saving the wrecked Spanish war ships has succeeded in floating the cruiser Infanta Maria Theresa. The ship will be brought to tlie United States at once. DELAY WILL NOT BE CONSIDERED Spain Won’t Be Allowed To Remain in Cuba Until Next Spring-. Washington. September 22. Il is stated that the war department has received no detailed report of any information from the Cuban military commission regarding the work of tlie commission at Havana. In reply to the question as to whether there was any .llsposition to accede to the request of the Spaniards for a postpone ment of t'he evacuation of Cuba until some time next spring, the statement was made that no delay would be considered; that the ev.icmition inits-t proceed with . xp ditbm. and that the troops of tlie United States wre now being put in readiness for the occupation of U.tba, and would be sent there. No dellniti date has be<-n fixed for their departure. DON’T LEND YOUR PAPER. A Bad Practice Among- Borrowing Neighbors. A Virginia friend writes us as follows: “r.’i'nd $1; time out September 21st; renew." That much of his letter is business-like, brief and eloquent. Then his letter con tinues. but I' l a sad strain; "The only fault I have with The Consti tution is one of my neighbors likes It so well that I don't have time to read it before lie wants it.” The moral is that good people t.re likely to be imposed upon by other people who are, perhaps, equally good, but are not so business-like or so thoughtful of the news paper man’s modest hank account.

WAITES POINTS FINGER AT THEN! Quartermasters Are Roundly De nounced by the General in Presence of Alger. WATER BOILERS THE CAUSE General Waites Said He Had Requisi tion for Them, but His Order Had Not Been Honored. Lexington, Ky„ September 21.—A promi nent gentb-rnnn. close to the national ad ministration. says the present tour of in spection us the southern camps by Secre tary Alg'.-r, Quartermaster G'-neral Luding ton and Surgeon General Sternberg will likt ly develop numerous charges from reg imental and general lickl officers against both the ni'dieal and the quartermaster d. partm.-nts and especially against some commissary otlieers. The talking was Uegun her. by (’,. neral Sanger against the medi’-al .lep.i rt tni rtl 'nd by General V. aites against the quart'rmaster's, and it is expected that olPeers at other points will add very ma terially to this testimony before the tour of inspection is completed. Si.tetary Alger stated that all of th.s information and all other evidence that lie could secure would be presented to the in vestigating commission at Washington. At th. here last evening be- tween Secretary Alger, General Breckin ridge, tin- commander of ("amp Hamilton, ai.d other olli.-ers. General Sanger said while the division hospital may iu a good thing, that as it was conducted it had ... , Ji grace to the service; that it h id depriv'd the regiments of their surgeons and caused hardships on the sick wiio should have had better attention at the proper time. Surgeon General Sternbi-rg, in reply, in sisted that ill requisitions had been hon or.,! in Washington, an.l that, any medical men failing to do their duty should be re ported Waites Makes Direct Charge. General Waites told Secretary Alger that the neglect of some quartermasters to fur nish supplies was criminal. While in Chick amauga he frequently made requisitions which were not honored. An imperative order had 1 cen sent to have all water boiled. He 'mid made a requisition on Quartermaster General Loo for water boil ers. No attention was paid to his requisi tion and after repeatedly urging Quarter master General Loe to send the boilers, tolling him bow flic men were contracting typhoid fever, he was met with a reply which road: “The war department does not furnish boilers.” General Waites then purchased the boil ers himself, but the seeds of typhoid had boon sown, and the daily reports showed th" list of deaths and of cases in the hos pitals. Pointing .-’t Quartermaster Luding ton. General Waites said: “These men cannot say it was somebody t-lse's fault. It was the fault of Quarter mister General Lee and it 'was tho fault of Qiiartermast- r Ludington, who is stand ing right there."' T.udlngton made no reply to Waites, as Sternberg had done to Sanger. Says the Boilers Were Sent. Washington. September 21.—The quarter master's department of "ho army states that the claim made by certain officers that, boilers were not furnished for boiling water at Chickamauga is not true. On the same date that Chief Quartermaster T.ee telegraphed for the boilers 2,000 were sent and a little later 500 more. It is niso stated that the soldiers would not drink the boiled water because it had a flat t iste and pre ferred and drank the fresh water. GENERAL ALGER MS ATLANTA Inspected Hospital at McPherson and Says It Is One of the Best He Has Visited— Re viewed Second Georgia Regiment. SECRETARY OF WAR R. A. ALGER, accompanied by General George M. Stern berg, surgeon general of the United States army; Gen-ral M. I. Ludington, quarter master general; Major George 11. Hopkins, military aid to Secretary Alger; Mr. Fred C Squires, secretary to Secretary Alger, an I ."otigt.ssni hi Aldridge, of Alabama, spent the afternoon in Atlanta Saturday. Tiie party arrived in Atlanta from Annis ton In :i private car. wnich was run as a sp . i..l train. Tin* train rvie'ie 1 Atlanta at 1 o’clock and was met. by Captain It. J. Lowry, w iiose guest the secretary was while in tin* city; .Mayor Charles A. ("oilier and committee from tin* city council. G.neral Bennington, commander of the dopar'.ment of th** gulf, and his staff, and IT'.-iileiit T. B. Neal, of tlie chamber of coimir and a committee representing I.an body. 't'he xarious committees ent.-red tiie c.ir.-., waeic they and th** officers of this tl. part inent wen* pi.s-m.'-d General Alger. The yr. s. ni a i *n <u . upi -d only a f. ,x minutes ami t ie secretary then announced that he was ready to go to Fort McPherson and inspect the hospitals. General Alger received a warm w* leonv* from a. large crowd v.hich had gathered at tin depot to see him. The crowd was not a noisy .me. but cheered the general as lie mounted the coach and was driven to the The party was conducted to the ’allyho < oa’ h by Captain Ixiwry ;is soon a.s Secre tary Alger alighted from tile ear, and as soon as the s.-cr. tary and these who ac companied him were seated, tiie eoacli siartt .1 for tie fort.

Al though it was very warm, the drive was a il. liglitfiil one. and was thoroughly enjoy'd. Hospitals Are Inspected. Ti ■ party rea. l . d Fort McPherson short ly before 2 o'clock, where ;he secretary was received by Captain Forbes, com mander of the post, ami .Major I aylor, surgeon in charge of the hospital, together with the other otlieers now stationed at Fort McPherson. Despite the fact that Secretary Alger says t.ie matter of enlarging tiie hospital at Fori M I’hcrson will not be decided un til Ilfs return to Washington, there is no doubt of tiie intention on the part ot the authorities to erect buildings of some kind as large as tlie ones now occupied by the sick men. and to use these buildings for hospitals. This will double the number of sick men ac Fort Mel J 'hersxfii. In talking to Major Taylor Saturday, General Sternberg spoke of this matter in such away as to leave no doubt as to the [mentions of the department. He even w.nt *so far as to advise Major Taylor io ask for estimates for .lie buildings. The kind of building to be erected was dis cussed. and the [iresent idea is to make each ward large enough to accommodate twenty in.-n and make the new buildings sutiii 'i ntly large to accommod He 400 men. In .-p.aking of the matter. .Major Taylor si.id : acre s> cnu’il to be no doubt that tlie hospital would be enlarged, and said he would ask for estimates and the buildings. lie was well pleased with the impression of the hospital obtained by th" distinguished visitors, and is justly proud of tiie hospital. Immediately after inspecting the hospital Secretary Alger was driven back to the city and out to Piedmont park, where hi? went to look at the camp site of which he has heard so much, lie wag driven down Woman’s Mysterious Ills.
