N A V Y IS S H O R T OF M ARINES Urgently Needed at Cienfuegos, None Are Available. Washington, Sept. 29.— An appeal for more men to assist in protecting property at Cienfuegos, Cuba, was re ceived today by Acting Secretary New­ berry, of the Navy department, from Commander Smith of the cruiser Cleve­ land, which is now stationed at Cien fuegoa, together with tbe gnnboat Ma rietta. In addition to tbe regular comple­ ment of marines snd bluejackets on the warships, 225 o 'h jr marines were sent to Cienfnegoe to assist in looking after foreign interests there, and at present the N a v department has no available men. Practically all the marines who can be spared from barracks in the Unijed 8tatee and from warships are preparing to go to Havana. I t is not believed by the Navy department that any of the men now at Havana or on their way there can be epared to assist at Cienfuegos. W ork o f the Hurricane. Mobile, Ala., Sept. 29.— Between 75 and 100 lives lost, fully two score vee sels driven ashore or wrecked in vari­ ous parte of the Gnlf of Mexico, dam age amounting to $4,500 000 in tbe city of Mobile, and two millions more at outside points, ie the record ol tbe storm which swept Mobile Wedneadav and Wednesday night. No accurate es timate of tbe casualitiee can be made ae yet, and it is donbtfn! if exact fignree will be known for a week or more. Pensacola suffered as much as Mo­ bile. The loes of life is known to be heavy and damage to property will reach $5,000.000. The smaller towns snd country throughout the district felt the hurricane equally as much as the two citiea. Insured by Penny Paper. New York, Sept. 29.— A special cable dispatch to the Times from London states that tbe heirs of one of tbe vic­ tims of the Granthan disaster have re­ ceived $1,000 insurance, which was effected at a cost of 1 penny. The in­ sured was a regnlar subscriber to a London penny weekly which insures its readers against acccidents and death. Ilia bag, containing a current copy of the paper, duly stamped, wat at the hotel at Retford. Within a few honrs of his death the claim was exam­ ined, allowed and settled. P A L M A Q U IT S JO B. Will Thus Force intervention by tha United States. Havana, Bept. 28.— The Cuban re­ public stand* on tbe verge of a second period of American intervention. Tbs Moderate party, which six weeks agi was in control of every office in the is­ land, national, provincial and munici­ pal, is determined *o abdicate every­ thing and compel tbe United States to intervene. In fact, every government official from President Palma down is dneerely anxious to force such inter­ vention rather than yield to any on* of tbe terms offered by tbe Liberal party and those in arms against the govern­ ment. Tbe Liberal leaders characterise the conduct of tbe government aa treason to tbe republic, while Secretary of War Taft regards it as an unwarranted and dishonorable attempt to force the band of the United States into intervention. This, it has been stated, ie precisely what President Roosevelt has been most anxious to avoid. Ssnor Palma has called a special sea- sion of congress for Friday, when he will present the resignation of himself and Vice President Mendes Capote. The Moderates, however, w ill not at­ tend that session of congress, for in iheir hurriedly called National Mod­ erate assembly yesterday afternoon they decided unanimously simply to quit forthwith. They will not even at­ tend the kpproaching session or have anything more to do with the govern­ ment ol Cuba, alleging that they bave been unjustly treated by Mr. Roose­ velt's commissioners. FOREIGN IM P O R T S E X E M P T . Moody's Opinion on Moat Inspection — New Ruins fo r Exports. Washington, Sapt. 20.— A decision has been reached by tbe department ol Justice that tbe meat inspection law recently enacted by congress does not apply to foreign products shipped into this country. This opinion was pre­ pared several days ago and submitted to Attorney General Moody. He con­ curred, it is understood, in toe opinion prepared by the department. Tbe acting secretary ol commerce and labor today promulgated certaia rules regarding the exportation of meats and meat products, prescribing the manner of inspecting carcasses snd the issuance of certificates, labels, etc. Tbe rales require that both tbe orig­ inal and duplicate, certificate shall be delivered to the exporter, who shall file the original with the customs offi­ cer and the duplicate with tbe con­ signee, to be u«ed by tbe latter in iden­ tifying the shipment at the point of destination by comparison with the original. Clearance is to be denied to any ves­ sel carrying meat products for exporta­ tion where regulations bave not been strictly complied with. Tbe rules will go into effect on October 1. C AU SE S H O R TA G E O F C O A L. Railroads Refuse C art and Boost the Price to Consumers. Sait Lake, Sept. 26.— That the rail­ roads are to blame for tbe high price and periodical shortage of coal in Salt Lake was the conclusion to be drawn from tbe testimony presented before Charles A. Prouty, of tbe Interstate Commerce commission todav. Tbe in­ quiry wae adjourned until Thnredsv morning at 10 o’ clock when^it w ill be returned in Denver. Mark Hopkine, who opened two coal mines at Camber- land, Wyo., was sworn as an expert today. He said that coal coaid be placed in care at Wyoming and Utah mines for $1 a ton and allow a reason­ able profit. Tbe present price on board cars is $2 a ton. Salt Lake dealers pay $3 76 for the coal laid down and^ tha consnmer pays $5.25 a ton. P. J. Quealy, manager of tbe Kem- merer, Wyoming, coal company, and Thomas Sneddon, superintendent of the Ditmondvilie mines, admitted that their output could be increased to pre­ vent the annual winter shortages, bat said that the railroads did not furnieh cars to carry a larger product. An a'tempt waa made to show that the Union Pacific railway carries sap- plies for its mines at a lower rate than that quoted to independent operators, bat this was not substantiated by di­ rect teatimoay. Army Is Ready. Oyster Bay, Sept. 26.— Plane for the transfer of troops from the United States to Cuba in event of the failure of Secretary Taft’ s mission to bring »bout a peaceful eolation of the trouble in the island republic have been com­ pleted.
