C. —It was offici ally announced here late last night that the sailors who were landed at Havana from the American cruiser Denver have been ordered to immedi ately return to their vessel save for a small guard which will be left at the American legation. This action fol lows the receipt of an official report by Acting Secretary of State Bacon from Mr. Sleeper, the American charge d'affaires at Havana, regard- | lag the landing of the men. There- j port was not made public, but it was announced officially shortly afterward that the sailors were landed from the j Denver solely for the protection of the lives and property of Americans, j That the landing in any way con templated the protection of either the Cuban government or President I'al nta or any other persons than Ameri- ; can citizens was disclaimed officially. ! Tampa, Fla. A private cable- | gram received here Thursday night from Cienfuegos, Cuba, states that marines from the United States gun boat Marietta were landed at that ; place Thursday to protect American interests. Havana, Cuba. There are 120 sailors from the United States pro tected cruiser Denver camped in front of old La Fuersa castle, facing the Plaza De Armas, the little park in front of the presidential palace, which ■ Is the seat of the Cuban government. The American flag is planted just in-; side of the low stone coping separat- 1 ing the castle grounds from O'Reilly street, which thoroughfare passes be tween the camp and the plaza. The American sailors are armed with regulation rifies with the excep-. tion of a few who carry revolvers or •carbines. Two fluid howitzers and two rapid fire guns were sent ashore with the sailors and now point across the little park, a significant warning to anyone approaching the executive headquarters 01 the Cuban govern ment. with hostile Intent. The Denver, which originally an chored further up the bay. dropped down last evening to a position abreast of the foot of O'Reilly street. The whole business was done so quietly and quickly that it caused the greatest surprise. The reason for the sudden landing of the American sail ors was a conference between Presi dent Palma, Charge D'Affaires Sleep er and Commander Colwell Thursday afternoon. On the occasion of the lat her's formal call upon President Palma, Mr. Sleeper asked the presi dent whether he thought the govern ment was able to protect American interests in Cuba unaided. The president replied that he hoped the government would be able to do so, but suggested that it might be ad visable as a measure of precaution ini the interests of the Americans, as well as for the maintenance of order in general, to land marines at some ■convenient port, suggesting the Plaza De Armas as the place. Commander Colwell, of the Denver, was approached last night by an emis sary of Gen. Castillo, one of the in surgent leaders, offering to surrender to him if guaranteed a fair trial. Commander Colwell, accompanied by Charge D'Affaires Sleeper, carried the proposition to President Palma. The president, was immensely pleased .and asked Colwell if he would accept, the surrenders. Colwell replied in the negative, but advised the president to communicate with the Washington government 011 the subject, which was done. "MIDNIGHT TARIEES." A Railroad President Asks that No Chance be Given for Their Inauguration. Washington, D. C. —Unusual in terest attached to the hearing of the inter-state commerce commission Thursday on the question of the re quirement of the new railway rate law of 30 days' notice of intended -changes in freight rates. Aside from the fact that the testimony brought out charges and counter charges of endeavoring to restrict competition upon the part of lines east of the Mississippi and those west of the river, there was injected into the pro ceedings something of a sensation when Chairman Knapp read a letter from a party whom he said was a well known president of a western rail road, insinuating in connection with the question of waiver of the 30 days' notice, that the commission might "wink" at certain practices of the cot ton exporters while certain railroads might scoop their competitors by in augurating "instantaneous midnight tariffs."

THEY RESUME WAREARE Cuban Insurgents Blow Up Rairoad Bridges—Several Fights Are Re ported—An American Warship Arrives at Havana. Havana, Culm. —The insurgents in Pinar del Kin and Santa Clara provinces on Wednesday signalized the resumption of war by blowing up railroad bridges, again blocking traf fic, and committing other acts of de struction. The insurgent command ers in Santa Clara had previously threatened the railroad authorities and others that they would begin to burn and destroy property, and the railroad officials so informed the prov incial governor, but that functionary was powerless to prevent the depre dations. As the insurgents in Havana province have made similar threats, there is much apprehension here of the inauguration of a like policy. The event of Wednesday in Havana was the arrival of the United States protected cruiser Denver. When the Hag on Morro Castle sigualled the ap proach of the American warship the news spread throughout the city and large crowds hastened to the wharves. As the cruiser moved up the harbor, firing the usual salute of 21 guns, which was responded to by the Ca banas fortress, the countenances of Americans showed pleasure while those of the Cubans expressed wonder and perplexity. Cuban officials are unanimous in staling that the visit of the Denver has no special signifi cance. Immediately after the Ijftver anch ored Ensign Blakely was sent ashore to the American legation to notify Charge D'Affaires Sleeper of her ar rival and that she was at the lega tion's service. Asked as to the Denver's available landing force in case of necessity, Commander Colwell replied that while she carried no marines at pres ent, she had 150 well armed sailors and several field guns which could be put ashore 011 15 minutes' notice. A railroad bridge on the Cuban Central road between Cruces and Las Lajas has been blown up. The mani ager of this railroad reports that the insurgents also are attacking stations. Several minor fights are reported, two of them quite near Havana. At Luyana, just south of Havana Ray, 200 shots were exchanged between rural guards and a band of insurgents. The latter dispersed. Near Punta Brava, west of Havana, there was a hot skirmish, the details of which have not yet been received. In a fight Wednesday near Santa Clara city three insurgents were killed, one was wounded and seven were captured. HEARST EOR GOVERNOR. independence League Nominated a State Ticket in New York. New York.—The closing session of the independence league con vention Wednesday night began with a tremendous uproar, started by the bringing of an immense portrait of William Randolph Hearst, president of the league, and the only man men tioned as its candidate for governor. From 8 o'clock, the hour to which the convention stood adjourned, until it actually began, there was one con tinuous demonstration. The big audi torium was packed from, floor to ceil ing, and practically every person waved a flag. The convention was called to order at 9 o'clock by Judge Seabury. Clarence Shearn presented the re port of the committee 011 resolutions, covering first the reply of the league to the memorial of Norman E. Mack, W. J. Conners and other delegates to the democratic state convention, which requested the league to post pone nominations until after that con vention. The report said that the convention "deemed it inadvisable to postpone the important business which it has assembled to carry out." The ticket for state candidates rec ommended by the committee was an nounced as follows: Governor—William R. Hearst, of New York. Lieutenant Governor—Lewis Stuy vesant Chanler, of Duchess.

CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 20, 1906 A WARNING To Cubans Is Issued by President Roosevelt. WAR MUST CEASE. If Peace Does Not Come Forthwith, the United States Will Intervene —Taft to be Sent to Cuba. Oyster Bay, N. Y. —After a pro tracted conference with Secre i tary of War Taft, Acting Secretary of State Bacon and Secretary of the Navy Bonaparte, President Roosevelt Friday night addressed an important communication to Cuba and arranged I to send Secretary Taft and Bacon to the island on Sunday to make a thorough investigation of conditions ; there and lend their influence tore- I store peace. The communication is addressed to | the Cuban minister to the United States, Senor Quesada. It. is an im | passioned plea to Cuba to realize her responsibility as a self-governing re public and to restore peace in the islands. Her attention is called in no uncertain language to the responsi j bility which the United States bears to the island and the certainty that i such responsibility will necessarily ! be exercised should peace not be pre ! served. The president says he has certain information that the peace of the isl i and is now menaced and that Ameri can property has been destroyed. Secretary Taft and Mr. Bacon will leave for Cuba Sunday. They will go by rail to Key West, Fla., and from there the journey to Havana will be completed on a naval vessel. Havana, Cuba.—The extra ses sion of congress called by President | Palma completed at one sitting Fri- I day the business for which it was summoned, namely, the granting to ' President Palma of the fullest pow -1 ers not already constitutionally pos sessed by him for carrying on the 1 war, including the right to appropri ate any public funds for war pur poses; revoking appropriations voted at the preceding session of congress, in order to permit the diversion of the moneys involved to prosecution of the war, and authorizing increases of the rural guards to 10,000 and the art.il- I lery to 2,00) men. I This triples the former force of rural guards and doubles the artillery. These measures, which were combin ed in one blanket bill, were passed by party votes, the liberals and inde pendents refraining from voting. Another feature of the day was the j return on board the American cruiser j Denver of the blue jackets who were landed from that vessel Thursday evening on the request of President Palma.

Many women fainted and were carried out of the crowd by the police. Mrs. Eliza Muhn and a negress were trampled on and had to be removed in an ambulance. Both will recover. DJUN'S REVIEW. The Volume of Trade Continues to be Beyond Precedent. New York.—R. G. Dun & Co.'s Weekly Review of Trade says; Volume of trade continues beyond precedent for the period, the end of the vacation season restoring normal forces in most occupations, and there are no important labor struggles to handicap progress. Autumn distribu tion is very heavy, traders as a rule preparing for needs well into the fu ture, while mercantile collections are quite as prompt as could be expected in view of the light money market. There is some uncertainty in primary markets for cotton goods, owing to the expectation of lower prices in re sponse to cheaper raw material, but as yet no concessions are offered. Demand for woolen fabrics is also somewhat irregular. Commercial failures this week in the United States are 174, against 194 the corresponding week last year, and in Canada 26, against 29 last year.

Ten Men Drowned. Toledo, O. —A hand car with a number of men on it ran into the Maumee river late last night and it ij reported that ten men were drowned The Age of Lead. We are wont to speak of this era as the "age of iron," and there is no gainsaying that, industrially speaking, iron is a "precious metal." Nevertheless, few people realize how useful, if not absolutely neces sary, to modern civilization, is that other metal, lead. Soft, yielding, pliable, it is not much like its sister metal, but those distinguishing quali ties are what give it such a prominent place in the arts and industries. Modern plumbing, requiring many turnings and twistings, but withal tight joints, would bo almost impos sible without lead fiipe. The great est civilizing agent in the world—the printing art—is absolutely dependent on lead. Hand-set type, linotype "slugs," monotype type all are made of compositions of which lead Is the chief component—to say noth ing of the bearings in the presses as well as all other kinds of machinery In which "babbitt" metal is used. Solder is another lead product— what a field of usefulness that one form opens up. Then there is the most important use of all to which lead is put—paint, that necessary material which keeps our houses looking pretty inside and out —and preserves them from decay. How many of us thank metallic lead for the comforts of paint? Yet the best house paint is nothing but me tallic lead corroded by acid to a white powder known as "white lead." Of course, there are many imitations of "white lead," some of which are sold as white lead and some which are offered by the name of ready-pre pared paint undei* the familiar pre tense that they are "just as good" as wliito lead. But all good paint is made of the metal, lead, corroded and ground to a fine white powder and mixed with linseed oil. White lead is also used in the coat ing of fine oil cloths and for many purposes besides paint. "Red lead" is another product of metallic lead and is what is known as an oxide of lead, being produced by burning the metal. Red lead is the best paint known to preserve iron, steel or tin, and is used largely in painting metal structures, such as skyscraper skeletons, mills and bridges. There are many other products of the metal lead, such as litharge, orange mineral, etc., which are es sential to many of the arts in which we never imagine that lead would be of the least use. Verily, we live in an age of lead as well as of iron. BECOND HAND MAIL BOXES. Why a Little Village May Have Big Numbers in Its Post Office. The man who was spending his summer vacation in the country was looking quizzically at the mail boxes in the rural post office. "I did not know this was such a large place," he said. "I thought it had a population of only about 4,000, but the mail box numbers run much higher than that, and I don't suppose every one in town rents a box either." The postmaster peered out of his little barred window. "I can explain that," he said. "You see the country post offices never get new boxes, but we have those left over when the city establishments make over their offices and get new boxes. So you see lots of country places are bound to have high num ber boxes. "Although our numbers run over 4.000, you won't find any less than 1,000, some other country post office drew the lower ones. I myself would rather get the big numbers, for it makes us seem like a bustling little CitT " Anything but Friendly. "You astonish me. Your engagement •with Miss Welloph is broken, is it?

Fail to Select Food Nature Demands to Ward Off Ailments. A Ky. lady, speaking about food, says:"l was accustomed to eating all kinds of ordinary food until, for some reason, indigestion and nervous prostration set in. "After I had run down seriously my attention was calied to the necessity of some change in my diet, and I dis continued my ordinary breakfast and began using Grape-Nuts with a good quantity of rich cream. "In a few days my condition changed in a remarkable way, and I began to have a strength that I had never been possessed of before, a vigor of body and a poise of mind that amazed me. It was entirely new n my experience. "My former attacks of indigestion had been accompanied by heat flashes, and many times my condition was dis tressing, with blind spells of dizziness, rueh of blood to the head and neural gic pains In the chest. "Since using Grape-Nuts alone for breakfast I have been free from these troubles, except at times when I have Indulged in rich, greasy foods in quantity, then I would be warned by a pain trader the left shoulder blade, and unless I heeded the warning the old trouble would come back, but wheh I finally got to know where these troubles originated I returned to my Grape-Nut's and cream and the pain and disturbance left very quickly*.

Many women suffer in silence and drift along from bad to worse, knowing full well that they ought to have immediate assistance, bat a natural modesty impels them to shrink from exposing them selves to the questions and probable examinations of even their family physician.
