Government Forces Being Con- centrated to Put Down the a Threatened Revolution. By Wire From the* Washington Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, Sept. 19.—Another revolution in Santo Domingo is immi- nent and the Navy Department is now preparing to send 300 marines there to replace those on the cruiser Dixie which were detached from Commander Southerland’s squadron and sent to Cuba. Commander Southerland cabled the Secretary of the Navy that the situa- tion at Monte Christi is grave and that an uprising may take place there at any moment. He notified the depart- ment that under these conditions it is inadvisable to withdraw any of the naval vessels on duty there. | Hie also requests the Secretary of the Navy to return the Dixie with 300 ma- rines: now at Cienftiegos, Cuba, protect- ing American property... The cable be- tween Puerto Plata and Monte Christi has-been severed. Commander South- | erland notified the Secretary of the Navy that tho first installment of 400 men of the Santo Dominican Govern- ment troops would reach Monte Christi today to be used in putting down the revolution. Secretary Bonaparte stated that the Dixie would not be withdrawn from Cienfuegos until another warship ar- rives there to relieve it. To Send 300 Marines. The marines on the Dixie will remain in Cuba and 300 other marines for service in Santo Domingan waters will be sent from the United States or with- drawn from the vessels now in Cuban waters or on their way there. The Dixie is the flagship of Com- mander. Southerland and when it was ordered to Havana with the 300 ma- rines. it was expected. that Commander Southerland. would go with his vessel, | transfer the marines and return to his station off the Santo Domingan coast with the Dixie. But the critical situ- ation in Santo Domingo would not per- mit Commander. Southerland to go to Havana and he transferred his fiag to the Scorpion. Since that time the Dix- ie has been transferred to Cienfuegos. One reason that Commander Soutker- land is anxious to have his vessel re- turned is that all the official papers of the squadron are on the Dixie, together with the personal effects of the Com- mander. He needs the. marines badly owing to the critical situation that has developed at onte Christi. The Dixie will remain at Cienfuegos until it is re- lieved by the Tacoma, Cleveland, Minne- apolis or Newark, all of which vessels are now on their way to Cuba

The situation in Cuba has so far explained Mself that its most important facts appear, regardless of ‘what is said from day to day on one side or the other. The Palma: administration represents “American terests” rather than local self-government for the lands. It was indirectly imposed on the islands by ’ American interests. It Liberal pperty of Cuba as a whole and its treatment of the aeoggig of the party has been despotic. ' The Liberal party, representing, in the ion of local self-government for the island, and
—_—~.
= So ——— has outraged the theory, ‘wishing to establish it, has allowed itself to be forced into a position where its course may result in much "greater danger to Cuba than anything already done or likely to be done by the Palma ‘administration. ' Resort to violence puts the energies of the Lib- i éral party at the disposal of annexationists in and ', out of the island. Since the insurrection began, the : Liberal party figures practically as the catspaw of ‘the annexationists. Violence they promote, the out- eet they may secretly incite are charged against the Liberal party and are added to the total of the arguments for the armed occupation by the United f States which annexationists seek to force by inciting ‘violent and continuous disturbance in the island. Whatever the wrongs of the Liberal party, it was sat once their safest policy and their duty to the , > principles they represent to recognize the de facto government. They had no greater grievance against it than existed against the de facto government of the United States inaugurated by the election of 1876. They owed Cuba unsurrendering but peacea- ble opposition to usurpation through fraud. Their est duty was to keep the peace. If the United States intervene under the Platt mendment, the administration which does it must either support the de facto government of the is- ‘land or else set up a provisional American military € | government, under which no faction of the Cubans pill share in the control of the island. _ This latter alternative annexationists are now at- {tempting to force. Under either alternative, the Liberal leaders become catspaws of annexation, forcing inevitable defeat for themselves whenever : they allowed the principles they represent to be used in armed revolt against a de facto government. They t have shown themselves shdért sighted in the gravest _ pmergency which has risen in the history of the young republic. - In spite of folly and crime in Cuba, in spite of 3 tamed criminally minded “interests” in the United States which incite it, our plain and only duty 4 : i 7 & - : 7 | 4 i if | udder the Platt amendment is, to make no “use of the power given by the amendment except to ; maintain and perpetuate the ‘Cuban republic. ‘Chicago will surely repudiate the school census that sliows her population to be only 1,780,506. * Buts perhaps it all comes of the tendency to small “families.

STEAD. ees For the first time in his life Mr. William T. ¢ Stead visited a London music. hall last week. “Drivel for the dregs,” is his comment cabled to hs Sunday Post-Dispatch, He was bored rather 4 than disgusted. Then he became indignant, “It \ seemed intolerable,” he goes on, “that in Anno | Womini, 1906, the heirs of thousands of years of | ebvilization should relish this inane drivel.

Agreement Among the O’Briens. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Seeing in your issue of tonight ‘‘Speak- er O’Brien” is to introduce a bill provid- ing for an Inspector of Plasterers. Good for Mr. O'Brien. Now, let all crafts fol- low. Have inspectors for hod carriers, mortar mixers, rock wheelers, quarry- men, rock drivers and all canners in alleys DARBY O'BRIEN. It Certainly Needs Protection. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. We Americans, the lovers of, freedom and individuality; the promoters of sci- ence and useful arts; the protectors of the English language; that beautiful language, in which the godlike Milton wrote his “Paradise Lost,’’ in which the noble Shakspeare wrote his ‘Night's Candles are Burnt Out,’’ and in which the child-loving Lengfellow wrote his “Children’s Hour.’’ and allow me to name another by Longfellow, ‘‘The Ship of State,’ which all Americans revere. Can we see that beautiful. language corrupted, as it were, just to see the business world quickened? Is not the business of this great country progress- ing and traveling fast enough? If so, let the Fneglish language stand as it is as a symbol to the original English-speaking countries of this globe. So aA dee Unsanitary Conditions. To the Editor of the Post- Dispatch A short time ago walked through the district partly composed of Ellen- dale and Greenwood, near the Des Peres Two or three years’ ago this was unsettled. Today it is built up and thickly peopled. It apparently has no drainage, and in the low parts the smell was very bad. Yesterday I hap- pened to go past West End Heights, on the side where there is a high hedge of Osage orange trees. I noticed that the drainage from the summer garden flowed into a hollow and stood, a reek- ing, dangerous pond. Close by, new streets were being opened and lots sold: houses being erected, in close proximity to this nuisance. We shall have plenty of typhoid unless we attend to our drainage. CITIZDN.

How can the small coal consumer pro- tect himself against short weight? ! was suspicious regarding my winters coal, On notifying the concern which | sold it to me they sent one of their erm- ployes who said, of ‘course, that it was ll right.

BIGAMY CHARGED WOMEN NEIGHBORS Maiden Names are Inserted In Doorplate, When They | Procure Warrants. Special to the Post-Dispatch. : | NEW YORK, Sept. 19.—Two young women of Jersey City consigned their | wedding rings to the scrap basket, slid | their maiden names into the front door- plate, instead of the name Mrs. Wil- liam G. Hendrickson, and, tucking their marriage certificates into their shopping bags, went to the District Attorney's office and procured a warrant for the arrest of their lone husband. Hendrickson, a gvod-looking, well- dressed young man of 21, employed by the Pennsylvania Raliroad as freight | clerk, was arrested later and committed . to the Tombs in default of $1000 bail to await the action of the grand jury. For more than two yeare both wives have lived within eight blocks of each other. The first Mrs. Hendrickson, whe was Miss Leoni Van Wart, lives at 101 Claremont avenue. The second wife, who was Miss Victoria James, lives at 11 Minerva street. Both young women are now living with their parents. 4 YEARS FOR HORSE THEFT. Farmers Give Man Who Caught Negro $100.

A bill to tax all signs projecting more than 18 inches out from the building line was introduced in the Counctl by Councilman Rolfes at the instance of the Million Club, through Ben Westhus, chairman of the Lighting Committee of the club, The tax on every. permanent sign which. projects a greater distance than 18 inches will be ‘4 cents for each square foot of sign space exposed to public view.’ The tax is imposed as an “inspection fee." All temporary signs, erected for special purposes and kept in place less than W days, are to pay an inspection fee half that charged for permanent signs. The exact method of erecting signs is prescribed in the ordinance. The Build- ing Commissioner and the Board of Pub- lic Improvements are to pass on the plans for their erection and the Super- visor of City Lighting is to pass on and approve their lighting. The whole sign must be constructed so as to have the approval of the Fire Underwriters. The ordinance provides that every sign erect under the provision of the or- dinancé shall be illuminated from dusk to 10 p, m.

McAleer has notions of playing O’Brien at third. He says that the White Sox, a terrific team of »Sunters, tried to bunt Peter out of it and that he made them stop it. He handles hard-hit balls all right and is a sure boy on flies. | So after all it may be a second base- man, not a third bagman, that McAleer , 7 is in need of. The Highlanders will make their last appearance of the season Thursday afternoon at Sportsman’s Park. They will play off a postponed game then. ] Wagner batted 1,000 as usual. Hans was at bat twice and both times he slammed the sphere safely. Thrice Spike Shannon strode to the plate and thrice Spike Shannon failed to hit safely. Devlin batted best for McGraw.

RAVENS SETTLE
HIGHLANDERS' HOPI -—— cae of Tuesday About Destroys Whatever Slim, Chances Griffith Had of Winning the Pennant of the American League. Glade’s surpassing efficiency in the box, a wild throw by Chase which gave the Ravens three runs—enough to win Clarkson's wildness ahd the ability of the local American League club to hit Hughes, who supplanted Clarkson, put Mr. Griffith and his Highlanders cut of the race for the American League pen- nunt at Sportsman’s Park Tuesday aft- ernoun, With the White Sox winning from the Athletics, Belshazzar Griff read,’in the script on the score board, the notice of tie destruction of his hopes for the pen- nant in 1906. To be sure, he still has a chance. He may win two games from St. Louis Wednesday and Thursday and he may break even in four at Chicago on the Sox's own lines apd then take a major- ity from Cleveland. All! this is possible and would give him a chance. But, with a pitifully weak pitching staff, is it Hkely that he shall accom- plish all this? Truly we think not. Griff was fortunate to get away with Monday’s game from 8st. Louis. Hemp- hill’s error and Conroy's noble throw held it for him by a few inches, The Ravens should have had it. On Tuesday Glade had the Highland- ers at his mercy. They could not hit him. Griffff is not in good shape for the run through the last eighth. He has a good club in the field and at the bat a better club than Chicago, a better club than the Athletics, a better run getting club but not a better all around club than Cleveland. But he Is weak in the pitching department. Every last one of his pitchers can be hit. Chesbro has ijost all his cunning. Orth always was hittable, but a good average pitcher. Newton is to the bad Hughes is evidently only a very average man. Clarkson has action, but seems to have to work too hard to attain speed. Hogg is not a very strong man on the rubber. Indeed, Griff, with his little old dinks—inside, outside, highside and low- side, but never in the groove, is about as good as any of them. So it seems that Gaiffith’s dream of glory is ended, his kingdom of hope passed away. He may as well abandon ambition for this season. To be sure,Griff is game, and he will fight. But ‘what is the use of fighting when you cannot win, even though Cyrano—please pro- nounce it See-rawno, like Mr. Mansfield, not Ci-ranno, like Jake Bene, or Cy-ren- no, like Joe ‘Lydon, but See-rawno, like the authority—“‘it is more glorious to
