May 27 Pros Palma's message Is published here tonight, and will be delivered to the Cuban senate tomorrow. The message opens by giving thanks to tho Almighty for his assistance in carrying out the work of obtaining Cuban independence, and asks divine aid in the establishment of a firm and stable government. "Nover did a people fight with more perseverance," says Prca Palma in the message, "and sacrifice more for liberty than have the Cubans. No people, therefore, are more entitled to see their just efforts crowned with success. "Together with our own heroism is the sttltude of the great people who "were impelled by their own love of liher-ty to put themselves on our side in our tenacious fight for the independence of the country.

"Their motive was one of geaeroad sentiment, pure and disinterested in origin. Impelled by this sentiment, the power of the republic of the north recognizes, through Its Illustrious President, the republic of Cuba. The promise formerly made has been carried out. "In this moment, when we feel our right as an independent nation. It is ltn -posslBle to suppress our gratltud-; tho United States.

To recognize his debt of gratitude to the great nation is an act which exalts us and which makes us worthy of the consideration atd respect of the other nations of he vrutld. "It is necessary now to dictate all the laws laid down It: the constitution. We are capable of fulfilling all the obligations and compromises which have been contracted, and we should prepare the budget with the greatest care." Continuing. Pres Palma recommends the encouragement of the agricultural industries of the Island, the raising of cattle, the establishment of agricultural stations, to improve the culture of sugar cane and tobacco, and the introduction of varied agricultural industries. "While the Question of reciprocity is still pending," the message goes on, "it is Impossible to state now what measures should be adopted to meet the pending- crisis.

"This crisis is due to the ruinous price of sugar, caused by excessive production of beet sugar in Europe. "An immediate remedy would be the reduction of the American tariff on smear, to obtain which the executive will at once devote his efforts, and will negotiate a treaty in order to obtain benefits for the Cuban sugar producers. "If security of life and property in Cuba is to be firmly guaranteed, the rural guard must be organized and increased, as the present tranquillity in the island is due to the people themselves and their desire to maintain the prestige of their country. "We recognize that during the American Intervention the sanitary conditions of the island were greatly improved, but it Is necessary to continue this work and make these improved conditions permanent. THE MAN FOR THE PLACE.

MAKES STRIKE PROBABLE. Mitchell Admits Such May be Result of Calling a General Convention of Miners. CHICAGO, May 27 Pres John Mitchell of th United mine workers admitted today that the calling of a convention by five districts of the bituminous fields made a strike probable. Mr Mitchell met several of the leading operators in the fields of the west and discussed the general situation with them. "It is impossible to tell what that convention will do," said Pres Mitchell.

"I shall not Issue tho call until I receive official notice of the signing of the five Verdict Regardin? Cars of ments made bv the master brewer. The statement, which was signed by Pres James R. Crosier of the Central labor union as chairman and Edmond K.

News of the simultaneous disappearance of Miss Maclntyre from Attleboro came In the form of a letter making inquiries about Mr Drake. The letter atated that the Attleboro teacher left her school the ssme day that Mr Drake left Huntington. It was said further that the young woman had received a telegram previous to her departure signed "1" and requesting her to meet the sender in Providence. Mr Drake had been principal of the school here three years, having come here from Ware. Previous to the appointment of J.

E. Warren as superintendent of the schools he had supervision In a limited way of all the schools In town. After the appointment of the superintendent there arose considerable friction between the two men. The trouble was settled by special town meeting last January, when the superintendent waa upheld and an agreement made by which Mr Drake waa to have entire control of fats own room without interference by the superintendent. After he left town last week investigation by the school committee revealed the fact that he had drawn all the salary due him.

had drawn his money from the bank and had left his wife and baby without much ready-money. Creditors for small amounts secured themselves by placing attachments on scientific apparatus and other property. Some have advanced the theory that Mr Drake's mind may have been temporarily unbalanced by overwork. Mis Maclntyre left Huntington to So to Attleboro. at a better salary.

But Mitchell is Due in Indianapolis Today, and He May Call Convention There. INDIANAPOLIS, May 27 Pres Mitchell telegraprls tonight from Chicago that he will be here tomorrow.

He will stay here one day and then go to Hazle-ton, but officials at United mine workers' headquarters say he cannot call a convention until the official demands come from the districts and tlhy have not yet come in. All indications here point to a convention within a few weeks. People who would bo most affected by a general strike in case one should be ordered, are doing a good deal of figuring on the possibilities of s'jch action being taken.

Mr Robinson is of the more acute and definite school of today. He represents the outgrowth of enthusiasm and education in art matters in this country during the past 25 years. He started out to be a lawyer after he "viae graduated with the class of '79 at Harvard, but something switched him into art. His annual reports in the museum catalog for years have been regarded as masterpieces in themselves and show a clear understanding of every matter that has been touched, both from a historical and art standpoint.

Pres Palma declares it is the purpose of the government to devote its attention to education, and especially to primary schools. He says the government iof Intervention deserves great credit for the educational system it established, but that there Is a need for still more schools, as the future of the republic depends upon education.

It will be the duty of the government to encourage the construction of railroads in the island and to protect the capital already Invested In railroad enterprises. Pres Pslma says he realizes the obligation which the government contracted with the Cuban army, and that if means areot now taken to make good this obllganon It Is because of the bad economic situation of the country. Pres Palma says he dees not yet know how the ordinary expenses of administration are to be met. "It Is very satisfactory to us," says the president in his message, "that the republic of Cuba has been officially rec-oenized by the United States. Great Britain.

"We must cultivate cordial relations with all nations, and make treaties of amity and commerce favorable to Cuba.

WASHINGTON. May 27-The republican members of the committee on relations with Cuba held a meeting today. The conference of the senators was not complete. Several senators had to attend other meetings and left early. Such progress was made, however, that Senator Piatt, chairman of the committee, expressei the belief that there would be an agreement reached at the next meeting.

The republican members of the committee are agreed on the provision to make a reduction of 20 percent on the tariff on Cuban Importations and to fix the time for such reduction at five years, but some of the senators desire to couple with this a provision to that effect thst none of the benefits of the reductions shall go to any trust. Others suggest that a reciprocal requirement from Cuba that that country shall model Its labor and immigration laws In accordance with iirk--tiona to be made by the United States. Both these propositions are antagonised, and it is not yet certain whether anything will be done in those respects.
