Senor Palma cornea In for universal condemnation, the Madrid press taking the ground that his Is a "traitor to Spanish traditions" In Cuba, the the- ory being that something less creditable than persona! pride or dignity waa be- hind his readiness to wreck tho Cuban State. Naturally Spanish Journnls are Inclined to give the Cubans the benefit of any doubt, and they resent Mr. Taft's "Implied recognition of a lot of negro desperadoes as belligerents," hut they declare that what has happened was a foregone conclusion, "the only remarkable feature of the ease being the long postponement of the climax." British opinion regrets Mr. Taft’s promise lo withdraw from the Island when new elections have been held, end a properly constituted Cuban gov ernment has been set up. They think he should have confined himself to a promise to retire 'when political Insti tutions had been established upon a permanent basis. French sentiment, (hough friendly to the Spanish element In Cuba, Is sym pathetic with President Roosevelt. Ge r ■ many looks on with more anxiety than any other European power. The Oer- colonial party la exceedingly Jeal ous of American advances southward. If the property of Germans or Hrltons In t’uba la destroyed, the attempt to draw either the London or Herlln gov ernments Into the fracas will be unsuc cessful. Neither power will move a ship to Cuban waters, that would not have gonu there Irrespective of the In surrection In the British press the prevalent no- tlon Is that Cuba Is not one whit better qualified for self-government than Lu. son, and that the Cuban negro will be as difficult a proposition In the long run ns the average Filipino.

Front New Depot. 44-46 Madison Avenue. EVERYBODY KNOWS” E.D. CRANE & GO. Where does Atlanta stand financial ly? There have been many estimates made and many guesses ventured. The answer to most Is “In the hole.” But nothing definite can be ascer tained until after Tuesday, next, when the number of whisky licenses to be permanently revoked will be settled by the special committee. One of the effects the clean-up will have Is tho further delay of a paving for Peachtree street. At the meeting of the streets com mittee Friday afternoon it was decided not to touch this matter until After the apportionment sheet had been straightened out. Friday Comptroller Goldsmith said that nothing definite could be said about- the apportionment sheet or how the city stood, as no one would know the number of licenses which would be revoked until the open meeting was held. It Is believed that some fifty of the saloons will be abolished. This will cut the city revenues for this year 112,000, which amount would pay the city’s share on the Peachtree paving.

Governor Terrell sanctioned the ML ’US*" ^ tltlon for commutation for the two boys, and on this showing the respites were granted for two months. On the ground that J. G. Rawlins and the negro, Alf Moore, are confessedly guilty of the murder of the Carter chil dren, the governor extended the time for the Moore execution for two months, so that the hangings may ail come close together. Mrs. Rawlins Is a stout, well-pre served woman, with traces of great sorrow In her face. When questioned she said: 'The only thing that has trained me In this trouble Is the absolute knowl edge In my own heart that my boys arc guiltless of this crime. On the night of the murder they were all at home with me, and knowing this I have been able to bear my sorrow. I feel that right will prevail In the end.” RawUhs Property Gone. Since last August Mrs. Rawlins and Now York, Sept. 29.—This wss the most exciting session of the season thus far dur fng the two hours of the trading In the cot ton market today. Operations* were on an noniious scale, and shorts covered cotton every five and ten points up In large blocks. There wqs nothing In the morning news to ncootint for the rapidity of the advnnce, but It seems that the storm has reached such proportion that shorts became nervous and In the excitement started covering on scale that lifted the market up 29 or 30 points Iwfore the advnnce had anything like nicnt to account for . _ or to estimate the nniouut of cotton that changed hands. The Month seemed to l»o buying as well ns European and local In terests, and as long ns this continues noth in* ran atom the tide. There Is mi enor- moua short Interest owing to the bearish feeling prevailing recently, nml It will re now . tho excitement continue. After so sharp an advance offerings hy the Mouth at a higher level will tend to provide cotton whereby shorts can get otit of their predica ment, mid this will provide a good trading ty s snare on the Peachtree paving. A plan of dividing up the deficiency and taking a portion from each of the appropriations has been diseased. If this Is done there will still be a chance to get the paving this year.
