ISLE OF PINES
FOR ANNEXATION
Residents Will Petition American
Congress Against Return
to Cuban Rule.
By Cable to The Dally Gateway.
Havana, Oct. 12 The isle of I’irtes
will petition the American congress
for annexation to the I nited States
instead of beiny returned to Cuban
i sovereignty. The island is largely
i peopled by Americans, who have been
| restive under Cuban rule and the
natives are now joining with them in
favor of American annexation.
Sentiment in Cuba seems to be grow
ing in favor of annexation, particu
larly in this city. The heavy prop
erty holders of the island are all in
favor of annexation, believing that
thereby alone can be assured protec-j
j tion of property.

CUBAN BANKER
GETS BIG HAUL
W recks McEballos Company and
Skips With $1,000,000
of Its Funds.
By Cable to Tbe Dally Gateway.
New York. Oct. 11 .1. McEballos &
Company, Cuban bankers interested in
a score of important financial enter*
prises in Cuba, failed today for $4,000.
0*H>, due to the defalcation of Manuel
ISilvera of Havana, a member of the
| tirrn, who sailed from Havana a week
ago in his own steamer for an unknown
port taking with him $1,000,000 of
I company funds.
Information from Havana reports
1 that the Havana house was left almost
j without a dollar in cash. All the
branch houses will lose heavily by the
defalcation as they had large deposits
in Havana.
THREE STEAMERS VISIT
SEWARD IN ONE DAY
Bertha, Dora and Santa Clara All In
Harbor at Once and Dock
Presents Lively Scene.
Three steamers in the harbor in one
forenoon and two at the dock most of
the day gave the waterfront a lively
, aspect Sunday. The Bertha came in
at J o’clock in the morning, the Dora
arrived at <>. and before the Bertha
r left tin* wharf at 10 o'clock the Santa
Clara was inside the hay.
The Bertha, coming from Seattle,
brought a small cargo and a few pas
sengers. She sailed for Seldovia ami
; will be back tomorrow. On board
were E. M. Gilson. Mrs. Gilson, K. J.
Karr. .T. 1*. Turner. \Y. L. Bobillard,
A. Ericson and .1. G. Jones, all bound
for the Yentna goldfields.
The Dora came in from the west
ward with nearly seventy passengers,
picket! up all along the route to Sel
dovia. She was scheduled to go to
Seattle in place of the Santa Ana,
which was lx>oked to take the Dora's
run to Cnalaska this month, hut the
disabling of the Santa Ana has changed
part of the program and will probably
change the rest. While it will not be
determined until she reaches Yaldez it
is probable that the Dora will stay on
the run another month. Her present
trip is the last to Nushagak the pres
i ent season as her mail contract to that
i port is only for the summer.
The Santa Clara and Dora sailed
Monday morning, the former for Seat
; tie and the Dora for Yaldez.
The Bertha returned from the
i westward Wednesday at *i p. m. and
sailed at midnight for Seattle. Among
; her passengers were several miners
from the Yentna, who took the boat at
Seldovia and went on through. All of
these had some gold and all expect to
lx? back in February to go inside be
fore the snow is off.
The remainder of the Cook party
• came over from Seldovia and four of
them went on through. These were
Walter Miller, the photographer,
Fred Prince, S. P. Beecher and Bel
more Brown. The other two. ft. P.
Porter, topographer, and Edward Bar
, rill, stopped in Seward, and will go
; out with Dr. Cook on the next
j steamer.

LAND IN CUBA
Troops Will Be Distributed
Throughout the Island as
Fast as They Arrive.
By Cable to The DfUy Gatoway.
Havana, Oct. 8—Five hundred United
States infantry and three hundred
members of the engineer corps have
been landed in this city. I he cruiser
Brooklyn has arrived with four hun
dred more soldiers. The troops will

threatened to kill the inhabitants.
The citizens are much alarmed.
Troops have been dispatched to the
scene. __
To Settle Last of Rows
Havana, Oct. 9- Taft sent U. S. Con
sul-General Steinhart of Havana to
Cienfuegos today with power to settle
all political differences and restore
peace among the local factions, which
have been warring ever since the last
national election. Taft has prepared
and is about to issue a general order of
amnesty for all persons for all political
offenses growing out of the recent dis
turbances.
Taft expects to sail from Cuba for
the United States on the battleship In
diana October 13. By that time Gov.
Magoon will bo placed in full charge
and the machinery of the provisional
government will be in good working
order. _
Magoon Reaches Cuba
Havana, Oct. 10 -Charles E. Ma
goon arrived today in Havana to be
come provisional governor of Cuba.
Taft's amnesty proclamation includes
all political crimes, even murders,
committed by rebels in arms during
the rebellion. The rebels are keeping
tlie property which they stole during
the outbreak as it would require force
to make them release it and the Amer-(
lean t mops have been warned to act
only in ca>es of extreme emergency.
The policy of the provisional govern
ment is simply to suppress Cuban dis
! orders and the American troops are
not to be permitted to offend the
Cubans.
Nicholas Riverio, the noted Havana
editor, says Cubans are pleased be
| cause Roosevelt's message says noth
ing about the time when the island
government will be turned back to
Cuba again, and he declares that, it
will never he possible to revive the
republic. Annexation, he asserts, is
the only legitimate outcome of the
situation. #

! afternoon Klliott F. Shepard with his
j car struck Bert Gruener, his most in
! tiinate friend, who was standing on the
j track, hurled him 100 yards, killing
him instantly and fatally injuring two
other spectators. The car was demol

ca. He has withdrawn the cup offer
and there will be no more races under
his auspices.

Winter.
By C&ble to The Daily Gateway.
Washington, D. C., <j)ct. 12- A snow
storm is raging in Pennsylvania, Ohio
and Michigan. John Keece was frozen
to death in Cleveland last night. Snow
is also reported in Kentucky and as

spread and frosty weather is reported
from many places in the far south.
SCHOONER EXCELSIOR
WRECKED ON PENINSULA
Salmon F'ishing Vessel Goes Ashore
in Nelson’s Lagoon but Crew
and Cargo Saved.
The schooner Excelsior, carrying
2105 barrels of salted salmon, went
ashore in Nelson’s lagoon on the north
shore of the Alaska peninsula August
30 and was totally wrecked. All on
board were saved, as well as the cargo,
which was taken off in lighters to the
beach. The schooner’s master was
Capt. J. Christiansen and one of her
owners. Captain Johnson, was aboard.
Besides them her crew numbered six
teen. The Excelsior was owned in
San Francisco and she had just loaded
her salmon cargo for that port, near
the place where she was wrecked.
She was 331 tons net.
The scene of the wreck is in a bay of
Bering sea. The men walked along
the shore and over the divide to the
Pacific side until they were opposite
Sand Point, which is on Popof island.
They crossed in small boats to Sand
Point, where they boarded the steamer
Dora and came to Seward yesterday.
They wiy go to Seattle on the Dora if
she goes there, and if not on some
other steamer.
Natives Go After Meat
Kahiltna, Sept. 21—Correspondence
of the Gateway—Fourteen boat loads
of natives have gone up the Yentna
river in the past few weeks to lay in
their stock of meat for the winter.
The whole procession consisted of
whole families, and about as many dogs
as Indians. Occasionally a birch canoe
drops down the river loaded to the
water’s edge with moose and bear
meat. The natives are from Tyonok,
Susitna, Alexandria and Croto. The
latter place is on the Susitna river
about ten miles above the mouth of the
Yentna. Alexandria is six miles be
low Susitna Station.
John E. Thwa ites Going Outside
John E. Th waites. mail clerk for
the steamer Dora since last fall, has
obtained leave of absence and will go
to Seattle soon. He is not certain
whether he will return to the west
ward run. Mr. Th waites was on the
Dora on her famous trip last winter to
Port Angeles byway of the mid-Pacilic.
His diagram of the voyage and chart
of the steamer’s zigzag course, printed
In the Post-Intelligencer, gave the
most realistic and interesting account
of all the columns of space written on
the subject. He is also a live news
wire and to him the outside world is
indebted for a batch of newrs on each
arrival of the Dora in Seward, at the
end of the cable line.
