Chief of Staff to Command Army of Intervention ftoot and Taft's Earnest Pleas Prevail .With Quesada. WASHINGTON, Oct, 3. After som ' telegraphic correspondence with Secretary Taft' about the latter's plan'to send Gov ernor Winthrop, of Porto Rico, to Cnba as Provisional Governor, President Roose velt today definitely appointed Charles E. Magoon to that office, and the new Gover nor will sail for Havana on Saturday. It' was stated late today that the Presi dent had reached the conclusion not to send Governor Magoon to Cuba as an nounced early in the day, because of ad vices in hand from Secretary Taft inti mating that arrangements made for Gov ernor Winthrop assuming the duties of Provisional Governor had gone too far to be changed conveniently. A late dis patch from the Secretary, however, put the matter in a different lignt and Indi cated that the Secretary was willing that Mr. Winthrop should remain In Porto Rico. The President, who has all along been anxious to have Mr. Magoon go to Cuba, acted promptly on the Secretary's' dis patch and Immediately announced the ap pointment of Mr. Magoon. This decision, he feels, leaves Governor Winthrop to finish important work which he has on hand in Porto Rico and will delay for but a few months Mr. Magoon's departure Tor the Philippines. Mr. Magoon late today was Informed ' that Mr. Taft -wanted him to come to Havana at the earliest time, and he win leave heTe Saturday. Tonight Mr. Magoon. Secretary and Mrs. Root and Rev.

It seems to me that your service was never more, needed by your country than now, and that it would be a misfortune if you were to lay aside that official position which may en able you to make your service effective. I am much distressed by the events which have occurred since I left the United States to attend the conference at Rio, but I do not think there is just reason for the friends of Cuba to despair of her liberty, her independence or- her Success in self-government. You will recall that the provision of the treaty under which the United States is now acting provides the right 'to intervene for the preserva tion of Cuban Independence, and you will perceive in the terms of Secretary Taft's proclamation that such Is the purpose of the Government of the United States. "To secure the successful accomplish ment of this purpose as rapidly as possi ble, all friends of t?uba ought to unite their earnest efforts. With hopeful cour age and determination on the part of Cuba s real friends, all this wretched business will soon be over, and" we shall look back upon it as merely a hard les son In the course of Cuba's development In the art of self-government."
