Somo of tho streets arc really cleau. General F. V. Grconc had $50,000 for public sanitation au thorized by tho department, nt Wash ington, but SnanUh sovereignty had to be respected, although It was un able to remove tho garbage! rom a single alley. The Havana adjutam lento, or commoa council, had not a dollar to spend. So, by permission of tho Spanish authorities, the United States took hold of tho work. Rcqucs de Estabp.o, the alcadc, or major of tho city, has proclamations posted In which tho Inhabitants of the streets cleaned wcro told that It was done by tho American govern ment, and they wore exhortcd to sec ond the efforts of the United States military authorities. This removal of the accummula tions of garbage docs not solyo tho sanitary problem of Havana, however. It shows that tho streets can be kept fairly clean and the city mado habita ble, while tho changes that ruunt be mado In tho sowcrago system and other hygienic Improvements are car ried out. Fl ve years may bo neces sary befero tho plans which George E. Warring prepared can bo mudo effective This will not preyent Havana from being kopt clean for the next iiy months' which Is tho period in which It Is Important to forestall dlseaso among tho Amer ican troops. Grneral Ludlow will probably be appalled by tho task be fore him as military and civil gov ernor ol Havana city. Every Amer ican army commander, when he faces his responsibility, probably has thut feeling. But thcro Is usually some simplo point at rvhloli a beginning can be made. In Havana It Is clean streets. Americans who uro In Cuba cngog.'d In business are chlelly concerned in un Improvement in tho mall service, both domestic and foreign. It would not be fair to judge Spanish adminis tration by the complete demoraliza tion which has appeared in tho post offico arrangements in tho lust fow weeks. Somo disturbances were inevit able. Tho knowledgo of tho employes thut they would recolvo none of the back pay lncroascd this indifference. Most of them will necessarily be kept for a time, and they know they will rccolyo their wages. That and tin doilro to please the American of. flclals will spur them along to u bet tor performance of their dutlos. Though tho Bcrylco Is nearly disor ganized, the methods of administra tion uro simple, und they arc easily adjusted to tho charge. This Is shown In tho eaeo with which tho military postofllccs for American tioops have bcon put In operation. Under tho Spanish rule the govorn mentownedthe telegraph lines and operated thorn In connection with tho postoffico department. Tho railroads woro not permitted to Ubo lines of tholr own, Their ordinary and neces sary business was transacted undor vexatious restrictions. Tho official regulations wcro ns voluminous and as Intricate as tho code of civil law.

SONNENIANN THE GROCER 124 Stato at Telephone 51 aw. r.sayMwtasg3a WMJMawm"M twt government postal telegraph, alio United States will not have to meet that question now, because of the practical difficulties In the way of administering tbo telegraph system as part of the po9toffice system. Un der the military rule which Is to be established for the entlro Island tho telegraph lines will be military ones. The signal service corps will havo charge of that. The30 lines are In bad con dition. To repair them and get the system In working order will require several weoks. When this Is done, lu addition to tho use of the army, tho llnos.wlll afford amplo faclllgles for the transaction of private business. Tho volume of commercial messages is not likely to be largo for a year or more, Somo of tho Havana merchants do not have a clear Idea of what the American military control means. Thoy do not understand why Colonel Biles, on army officer, should be named for collector of customs, or why similar positions are to bo mis led Into believing that all civil em ployments arc to be turned over to tho military arm. A little experience under nctual admicstrallon will re move choir misgivings. Military re sponsibilities will oxlscln all admin istrations, and for that army officers will bo at tho head of all Important departments, but there Is no Inten tion of having soldiers to discharge tho duties which can only be satis factorily preformed by civilians, Many of the Spanish employes, both military and civil, whose functions will cease on January, have been led to think that the United States will make good tho duo bills of "1 O Us" which tho Spanish authorities havo been Issuing In satisfaction of all ob ligations. This belief Is not univer sal, but is general enoKgh to raise hopes which will be disappointed. Lawless Cubans, Havana.

Timber Reserve Supervisor Ormsby In a Conclave of Experts at Tacoma, llr Amueliitetl l'rorn. In the .louriiiil. Tacoma, Dec. 27. Tho forestry re servo officials of tho northwest met last night to discus the question of sheep grazing on tho reserves. It was practically decided to allot pasture distrUts, lying in tho Mount Tacoma reservo In well dotlned lungos, The conclave consisted of Superln sendent Ormsby, Oregon; superin tendent Cloes, Tacoma; Superlntend Ilyde, of Everett, and Supervisor nam, of the Olympla reserve, The settlement of this question Is ono of great difficulty and Is left to the. dis cretion of the reservo superintendents although their plans mny not bo rati fied by the government.
