CUBA COMES FIRST
Roosevelt Will Make Sacri
fice to Give It Relief.
WILL GIVE UP SECOND TERM
4ppoIntment of Holmes as Snpreme
Justice May Result In an Ef
fort to Reopen the In
sular Cases.
OREG OXIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington. Aug. 13. An Eastern paper quotes
President 'Roosevelt as saying to a friend
that he woud sacrifice as second term to
secure reciprocity with Cuba. This may
have been said, but, of course, everybody
knows that the cause of Cuba would not be
advanced by any such sacrifice, and It will
not be necessary. If Roosevelt made the
remark, It shows he thinks that the prom
ises made should be redeemed.
Recent reports from the island show
that there is a strong Conservative element
In the Island that is trying to prevent the
hotheads from ruining the country by of
fensive methods toward the United States.
Intimations have already been given that
the proposed tariff Increases are 111 ad
ised, and the attempt to float the big loan
In advance of any treaty arrangements
with the United States Is regarded as inju
dicious. MAY REOPEX INSULAR CASES.
Effort May Be Made to Learn Stand of
Xcvr Associate Justice.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington. Aug. 13. The selection of Oliver
"Wendell Holmes to be Associate Justice
of the Supreme Court may result in re
versing the insular policy of the United
States. Justice Gray was one of those
voting to sustain the Foraker act levying
& duty on goods going from the United
States Into Porto Rico, and also on goods
coming from Porto Rico into the United
States. Although free trade has since
been established between the island and
the United States, It was upon the decision
in the Porto RIcan cases that the Philip
pine tariff legislation of the last session
was enacted.
Ttffcre is no reason why another case
could not be brought by some one import
ing articles from the Philippines Into the
United States. If the new Justice has a
different view of the case than Justice
Gray, and should vote with Fuller, Harlan,
Brewer and Peckham, the whole insular
policy would be changed, and absolute
free trade between the Philippines and
this country would, follow. It Is more than
probable that those who are interested in
exporting goods from the United States
to the Philippines or bringing .Philippine
goods to this country may think it worth
while again to raise the question.
It s not expected that Justice Holmes
"will give any intimation as to how he
stands upon this question, though it Is
possible that some close friend of tho
President ascertained his views before
the appointment was made. In view of
the conditions existing, It is hardly be
lieved that the President would have ap
pointed a man that he knew would over
turn existing conditions. It is also inti
mated that Holmes might follow a pre
cedent that has been established In some
cases by the court of not reversing a ques
tion once settled. At the same time, many
able lawyers believe that the court was
wrong on its insular decisions, and they
may try to have the case reopened.

JOURNALISTS' CONTRACTS
Plan for the Protection of Writers
for Italian Press.
Irlterary Digest.
" Mr. George S. Lorand publishes In the
Parts Aurore a. remarkable bill, called the
"Journalists Contract Law," which Is
now pending - before the Italian parlia
ment The salient points of this bill are
as follows:
The duration of a contract between a
journalist and the proprietor of a paper
cannot be less than two years for a chief
editor and one year for an ordinary writer.
A Journalist taken on trial becomes a full
fledged Journalist at the end of two months
If not discharged. In case the paper is
sold, if -the owner changes his political
opinions, or if there Is a consolidation
with another paper, the Journalist Is en
titled to an Indemnity should the chance
affect the stability of his position or force
him to do some work not in accordance
with his political opinions. This Indemnity
is equal to the amount of salary he would
receive to the end of his engagement
Any arrangement contrary to the bill is
void. In case a bankruptcy of the paper
the editors have a privileged lien on the
furniture, the machinery and the mate
rial. In cases of litigation between jour
nalists and owners of publications an ar
bitration tribunal will decide. This tri
bunal will be composed of two Journal
ists and two owners, selected out of a
list of three of each presented by the liti
gants. There will be n6 appeal from the
decision. A fee of 4 per 1000 of the amount
involved will be paid to the treasury of the.
"Provident Association of Journalists."
Italian as well as French papers consider
the bill aa a hugh Joke. La Fronde, how
ever, thinks that "Journalists should be In
dependent if we want an honest press;
many of them are miserable proletarians
who are willing to write anything for fear
of losing their positions; no one can deny
that such state of affairs is akin to slav
ery." ANCHOR CHAINS.
Welsh, Fifty Tons and Will Halt
' 600,000 Pounds.
Scientific American.
What are claimed to be the largest
chains ever made In this country for se
curing a ship's anchor have been manu
factured at the Lebanon Chain Works,
Lebanon, Pa., for the steamships being
constructed at the plants of the Great
Northern Steamship Company. They
were made In four sections or "shots,"
each comprising 90 feet, so that tho total
length of the combined chains is nearly
4.000 feet Two will be supplied each
ship, one for the starboard and one for
the port anchor, but for convenience in
handling and construction each chain
Is subdivided Into shots of 90 or ISO feet
joined by swivel shackles.
A portion of tho completed chain was
tested by apparatus installed at the Leb
anon works, which is said to be the
largest chain-testing machine in this
country, having a capacity ot 600,000
pounds. At a strain of 500,000 pounds the
jaw of the holding shackle of the ma
chine was broken, but none of the links
was affected. At, the second test the
breaking strain was placed at 540,000
pounds, when the Jaw of the machine
feeding the oil to the tester was frac
tured. The chain Itself, however, was
unafTected. These figures are 55,000
pounds above Lloyd's requirements for
such anchor chains.
A further.' Illustration of the great size
of the chains can. be given when It Is
stated that each link, averages not less
than 153 pounds weight, an average of
about 100 pounds to the running foot
making the total weight of each anchor
section nearly CO tons. The chains, of
course, will be handled in connection
with their respective anchors by steam
power, either communicated to large
winches or to special stationary engines.

president. General Irving Hale. Follow
ing the address of General Hale, routine
business was taken up, the session last
ing the greater part of tho afternoon.
General Hale In his annual address said
that August 11 was chosen as the date
for the convention because of the capitu
lation of Manila, "which was tho last
event of the Spanish War, and gave to
the United States the poxssion of the
Philippine Archipelago with all its prob
lems, conflicts, responsibilities and pos
sibilities." General Hale recommended
that the limit of membership be extend
ed to those serving In the Army in the
Philippines up to July 4. 1903, the date o
the proclamation of amnesty, and con
tinued: "At present and perhaps for come time
to come, there are two special reasons
for maintaining such an organization,

MAKES CHANGES IN ITS LAWS.
Portland In Field for Typographical
v Union Convention in 1003.
CINCINNATI. O.. Aug! 13. The conven
tion of the International Typographical
Union made many changes in. its laws to
day. After providing yesterday for the
oldest substitute getting the first vacancy,
it toaay restricted the hours per week
to a maximum of 51. put evening papers
with Sunday editions on tho seven-day
basis and made many minor changos. An
effort to include superintendents as well
as foremen in the membership was made.
It . developed that there will be strong
opposition among the delegates to Indors
ing the newly organized International
Ladles Auxiliary, although there Is no
opposition to local ladles' auxiliaries. The
convention became very animated over
an "alleged factional fight" that was pre
cipitated by the Indianapolis Union, and
showed its conservatism in defeating n
proposition to prohibit any member from
belonging to tho militia.
Consideration was continued of the
elaborate report of tho committee on
laws. The committee recommended that
all unions put forth every effort to abol
ish the Interchange of matter previously
used in type matrices, and that the con'
ventlon chansc It so as to read: "The
practice is unlawful and shall not be per
mitted." The proposition was recommit
ted after a long discussion, with Instruc
tions for the laws committee to construct
such a law ,as would prevent the ex
change of local matter, but not to Inter
fere with -the syndicate matrices.
The San Francisco machine-tenders
asked for an international machinist vice
president nnd allotments on the commit
tees. Rejected.
All attempts to change from the refer
endum system In the election of officers
were defeated.
The proposition of West of Louisville,
to substitute piecework In dally newspa
per offices In place of timework. and time
work In place of piecework in Job offices
caused a long discussion, and was finally
defeated.
Tho question of limited membership
camo up In a proposition defining the
"rights of machine men other than, print
ers, by debarring them from the opera
tion of machines. The action of the Bir
mingham convention extending equal
rights to all .allied crafts was sustained,
and the new proposition was lost
Consideration of proposed changes In
the laws of tho union were considered all
afternoon and until late tonight Amend
ments were adopted against working for
less than the scale of the union, against
men recommended by supply agents or
others, and against granting labels to
unions where the scale falls below $10 per
week. Several changes were made In
laws regulating labels as to firms violat
ing any union laws. Various amend
ments also were made regarding member
ship cards and dues. Minor changes were
made In the laws limiting the hours per
week and the classification of papers.
There was an exciting discussion over
an amendment providing that no person
is entitled to membership In a typo
graphical union who is a member of any
state militia. The sentiment was gener
ally expressed against union men belong
ing tothe militia, but many of those
holding theso views did not want the
Typographical Union to go on record
against any part of the Government or
against any lpdMdual rights. The
amendment was defeated by a viva voce
vote, which indicates a. large majority
against the proposition.
Nominations for the place of holding
the convention next year were made by
Breltensteln for Ashevillo, N. C; Ryan
for Newark. N. J.; Blakeloy -for Rich
mond. Va.; Bynum for Washington. D.
C, and Daveler for Salt Lake City. Tha
contest seems to ba between Washington

Nashville, Tenn., and Portland, Or., gavo
notice that they would ask for the con

The visiting ladles .effected a perman
ent organization of the Women's Inter
national Auxiliary today. A constitu
tion was adopted! It embodied close- re
lations with the I. T. U., with the mem
bership limited to relatives in tho typo
graphical unions.
The convention of tho International
Stereo typcra apd Electrotypers Unions
today adopted an agreement to bs pre
sented to the United Typothetae. Among
other matters under consideration was
the adoption of a trade-mark and mat
ters relating to them and wages. Thu
stereotypers and electrotypers spent tho
afternoon with the typographical con
vention, in which they had been accorded
scats.
Musical Hall, with a capacity of over
5000, was packed tonight at the celebra
tion of the golden Jubilee of the Interna
tional Typographical Union, which per
fected Its international organization in
this city In 1S52. The exercises began
early with an elaborate musical pro
gremme. Among the spenkers were Gov
ernor White, of We3t Virginia; Presi
dent James M. Lynch and Delegate Dav

timore as the place of meeting for the
annual reunion of the Grand Lodge in
1903, and practically completed Its busi
ness with the exception of the Installa
tion of the new grand officers. This will
take place tomorrow. But two cities were
in the Hold for the honor of entertaining
the Elks next year, Baltimore and Sara
toga Springs, and some very lively can
vassing was done In behalf of both cities.
It was evident before half of the roll bad
been called for the first vote, however,
that Baltimore would win overwhelming
ly, and Saratoga Springs was accordingly
withdrawn.
Tho spectacular feature of today's pro
gramme was the parade of the uniformed
bodies of Elks, in which over 3000 of the
fraternity, representing several score of
lodges, tpok part Prizes amounting to
$1750 had been, offered for the marching
clubs, and many beautiful and unique
uniforms wero displayed by the lodges
participating. To the Park City Elks, of
Park City, Utah, was given the first prize
for the most unique display. Each mem
ber was arrayed as a miner, and each had
with him a burro, laden with all tho sup
plies necessary to a prospector or . miner.
Tho "Cotton-Pickers." of Greenville,
Miss., with black faces and garbed In the
outlandish rags of a Southern plantation
negro, cakewalklng and dancing, and fol
lowing & float laden with cotton bales,
were awarded second prize, while a small
hut select body from Joliet, IIU in the
penitentiary stripes, keeping tho prison
lockstep, wero given the third prize.
For the best display, prizes were award
ed as follows: Montana, first; Quien
Sabo? Lodge, of El Paso, Tex., second;

for the best float a model of the battle
ship Seattle, fully manned. Helena was
given the honors for the handsomest

San Francisco, took the prize for the best
marching band.
A number of the members of "Buffalo
Bill's" Wild West Show, and Colonel Cody
himself, who are Elks, took part In the
parado, adding one more plcturesquo fea
ture to a remarkable parade.
With the Installation of the new Grand
Lodgo officers tomorrow and the transac
tion of some routine business the Grand
Lodge will conclude its session and the
exodus for homo will begin. Several hun
dred Elks will visit California, however,
before turning their steps Eastward. It !&
not believed that any changes in the rit
ual will be made, and tho new funeral
service recently submitted for adoption
will, it is expected, go over until next
year.
At a late hour tonight the judges In tho
band contest decided that Denver and
Montana had tied for first place, and
these bands will play at Saltalr tomor
row afternoon, when one of them will be
given first prize. Tho Third Artillery
Band, of San Francisco, was awarded
third prize.
Wall Paper Combination.
NEW YORK, Aug. 13. The wall-paper
manufacturers' and dealers are holding
their annual meeting here. The especial
object is the concluding of contracts for
the coming year's business. The meeting
will continue for some time and before Its
conclusion the subject of forming a new
combination of the trade will be discussed.
One of the manufacturers present said:
"The buslncra during the past year has
been . bad for everybody. The sales have
been large, but the profits small. This
condition is due to the cutting of prices
among the various manufacturers. Since
the spllt-up of the wall-paper trust the
competition has been too sharp. As a re
sult there have been numerous failures,
some of which are recent The prices for
the year to come will be Increased about
one-half of 1 per cent, because of the
corresponding Increase In the price of
raw materials. There has been some talk
of the formation of a new combination or
agreement among manufacturers, and
many Beem to favor-it'
Oil Train Wrecked.
PITTSBURG. Pa.. Aug. 13. Sharpsburg,
a suburb of Allegheny, was excited today
over the wreck of a West Pennsylvania
freight train of 20 cars, loaded with ben
zine, gasoline, kerosene and lubricating

States to intervene In Venezuela
Situation In Hayil.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 15. Over night
the Navy Department received word that
the Cincinnati bad sailed yesterday from
Puerto Cabcllo for Barcelona, under In
structions cabled yesterday to Command
er 2IcLean directing, either the Cincin
nati or Topeka to proceed Immediately to
'that point McLean, who is the senior
officer present, evidently decided to go
himself and leave the Topeka to protect
American. Interests at Puerto Cabollo.
It Is probable that the 'Cincinnati al
ready has arrived at Barcelona, but that
fact may not be known officially here for
several days, as Minister Bowen cabled
the State Department from Caracas today
that the cable, from Caracas to Barcelona
again had been cut by the revolutionists.
On Monday he reported that, this cablo
had been cut but presumably It had been
repaired In the Interim, and his last dis
patch indicated that the connection bad
again been lost
Neither the stats nor, the Navy Depart
ment has received confirmation of the
press dispatches from Port o Spain,
which were conveyed there from Barce
lona by boat, of the extent of the fighting
at Barcelona and of the report that the
American, Italian and Dutch Consulates
had been pillaged. The officials of the
Navy Department are confident that Com
mander McLean, with the Cincinnati, will
he able to take cars of American Interests
there.
Owjng to the general disturbed condition
of affairs all along the line of the Vene
zuelan Coast and the appeals of Minister
Bowen for warships, the question wheth
er our naval force In those waters la suf
ficient to take care of the existing situa
tion and to meet future contingencies has
been canvassed. For the present it has
been decided that it Is unnecessary to send
an additional vessel. "We now have three
ships at the three critical points the Cin
cinnati at Barcelona, the Topeka at Puer
to Cabello, where the Germans already
ha.vo landed a force, and the Marietta at
the mouth of tho Orinoco, which was-declared-
blockaded by the Castro govern
ment Germans Advise Intervention.
BERLIN, Aug. 13. Tho newspapers here
display news from Venezuela prominently
and print everything available from New
York on the probable landing of marines
by tha United States or Germany or both.
Unusual interest Is taken in current events
In South America, especially in the com
ments of American newspapers, respecting
the possible necessity of Intervention. The
Lokal Anzelger refers to the .great inter
est of foreigners In the preservation of
order, and thinks the landing of Ameri
can and German marines altogether Justi
fied, considering the half-clvillsed" people.
The Tageblatt says that anarchy in Ven
ezuela calls for intervention, especially
on the part of the United States,
The Foreign Office repeated today to
local Journalistic Inquirers the statement
made to tho Associated Press yesterday
that nothing Is known there of the re
ported landing of German marines.
Decisive Battle Expected.
SAN JUAN, Porto Rico, Aug. 13. News
has reached here by the Red D Lino

Salt Rheum
You may call it eczema, tetter or mill?
crust.
But no matter what yon call it. this skin
disease which comes n patches that burn,
Itch, discharge a watery matter, dry and
scale, owes its existence to the presence of
humors in the system.
It will continue to exist, annoy, and per

remain. .
It Is always radically and permanently
cured by
Hood's Sarsaparilla
which expels all humors, and is positively
unequalled lor all cutaneous eruptions.
