President Gomel' Pretest Will Not Alter Washington's Plant One Jot and Neither Will Any Further Pro test From Him Make Any Different Effect Roaming Bands of Negroes Do Damage. Washington, May 28. Only prompt restoration of order by the Cuban gov ernment can now keep United States marines cut nf the territory ot that re public. Communications exchanged between President Taft nnd President Gomez in the last 24 hours have dem onstrated the one fact that this gov ernment is firmly determined to af ford all protection necessary to the American Interests in Cuba and Amer ican citizens In that island. Gomez Must Check Revolt. Either Gomez must cheek the negro revolt or the United States will pro tect its own. Colonel Karmany now has authority to send his marines be yond the Guantanamo reserve if ha deems it necessary after arrival there. Replying to the Gomez note pro tecting analnst the naval demonstra tion in the vicinity of Cuba, Presi dent Taft assured the Cuban execu tive that the measures taken were, not for the pnrnose of intervention in Cuba by the United States. At tho BHme time the Tart note to Gomez did not pledge the United States not to Intervene. It simply asserted that Intervention was not now intended by this government. Meanvhile the naval mobilization at Key West is being carried out ex actly according to schedule and with the greatest dispatch and celerity. By tomorrow night the United Slates will have off the Cuban cons nine big fighting ships with about 2. 500 mnrines on board, while 750 more marines will be landed at Guantana mo, supported by two gunboats. Gomez' Protest Will Not Avail. President Gomez' protest has not altered the Washington plans one jot and neither will any further protest from him make any different effect. Reports from Cuba received at the slate department did not show the slightest Improvement in the situa tion. All the dispatches told of scat tered disordera, roaming bands of ne pores, demands upon managers of In dustrial enterprises for money under threats of violence and the organiza tion of volunteer guards In the Cuban towns. There was nothing in the least to support the statements In President Gomez' note that his government was capable of taking care of the negro no rising. TROOPS LEAVE HAVANA Cuban Commander and 900 Soldiers Sail For Santiago. Havana, May 28. General Montea gudo, tho cammander-in-chief of all the armed forces In Cuba, sailed from here with a large force at 7 oclock Ia-t night for Santiago on the cruiser Cuba which has just arrived from the yards at Philadelphia and the Herrera lino steamer Julia which had been pressed hit oscrvice as a transport. Besides the general and his staff, there were 900 men and a lot of ma chine guns. Havana is now denuded o troops. President Gomez gave out two leng thy Interviews for the American press. The gist of these was that the revolt exists in only nine townships in San tiago province. In reply to President Taft's despatch In regards to protection of American property and non-intervention, which was an answer to the formal iprotest of President Gomez in regards to the movement of American forces towards Cuba,- the Cuban executive last night sent tho following cablegram to the Washington government: "I thank you beyond measure for your cablegram which while tranqui lizlng Cuban patriotism, with the as surance that your government will limit itself to observe events with tho disposition in case of necessity to pro tect the lives and property of Amer icans and morally support the Cuban government, without the necessity of landing troops on our territory save In case of extreme necessity, and on the understanding between both gov ernments to that end. This proves tho sincerity of government and people of the United States and their noble and friendly sentiments towards the government and people of Cuba who are determined as oon as possible to restore peaco without any vacillating and without stopping nt any sacrifices which the circumstances may demand.

Victim Waa Taken From Her Homei Showered With Blows and Kick Up- on Her Face and Limbs, the Lights of the Town Being Turned Out, it is Alleged by Village Officials- State Will Investigate Outrage. Never has Worcester county, Md., been more stirred than it is over the uction of a gang of thugs, who, claim lftg official protection, dragged Mary Holzman, an unprotected woman from her home in Ocean City, Md., showered blows and kicks upon her face and limbs and concluded their perform ance by dipping her into a vat of tar In the presence of her 11-year-old son, who struggled to prevent the outrage. Terrorized by her experience, the woman has quit the town. She is now being sheltered by "Tom" Jones, a negro, who lives out In the country three miles. One of the most startling features of the Incident Is the fact that the town's lights were out when the as sault was committed. Mrs. Holzman says the switch was turned through the connivance of town officials. However this may be, the men guilty of the outrage boasted while they were subjecting her to the in dignities that their act had the sanc tion of the town council. Since then the boast has been repeated by them. Although the officials of Worcester county seem to have given evidence that they would be perfectly willing to have the whole incident blow over Vithout taking action, they have at last realized that this cannot be done. Sheriff Hanson, acting under in structions of State Attorney Johnson, visited Mrs. Holzman at the Jones home where It was arranged that she should be taken under protection to Snow Hill, the county seat. She de mands an investigation saying she is the victim of defamatory gossip as well as a most brutal assault. Mrs. Holzman says the men who assaulted her were fishermen. She was known In the community as "Red Light" and resentment was aroused against her because of the charge that was made that she harbored col ored men. She declares there Is ab solutely no truth In the reports and maintains that the offensive epithet applied to her is entirely unjustified. Westfield Woman Ends Life.

TO PROBE PRICE OF COAL U. 8. Attorney at Philadelphia Ordered to Investigate. Philadelphia, May 28. That 1h9 Philadelphia Coal exchange and the Reading company will be called on to kxplaln the sudden and arbitrary ad vance In the iprlce of coal was made evident here when the United States attorney was authorized by the depart ment of justice at Washington to com mence Immediately an Investigation of the charges that had been made with regard to the advance in prices in this city.
