UNCLE SAM IN
CHARGE IN CUBA
TAFT I88UED PROCLAMATION
TODAY DECLARING HIMSELF
PROVISIONAL GOVERNOR.
IT IS MODERATE IN TONE
8tep Is Taken aa Matter of Neceaaity
and Is Only for the Purpose of
Restoring Peace, Order and
Confidence of the Public,
Says the Document
Havana, Sept. 29.—The American
provisional government assumed pos-
session of Cuba today when Secretary
Taft's proclamation declaring himself
provisional governor of the island was
formally issued.
The proclamation was published in
the Official Gazette and thousands of
printed copies of the document were
distributed in Havana and elsewhere.
The terms of tbe proclamation caus-
ed general satisfaction, on acoount of
the moderate tone in which it is
phrased, especially the statement that
the provisional government of Cuba Is'
undertaken only on account Of the
necessity of the situation and will be
maintained purely foir the purpose of
restoring peace, order and public con-
Wm. H. Taft
fidence until a permanent government
can be established.
No one appears to doubt the good
Intentions of President Roosevelt and
there is no apprehension of serious
trouble or resistance to the provision-
al government in any part of Cuba.
Governor Taft has not taken posses-
sion of the palace yet, as former Pres-
ident Palma is unable to vncate be-
fore Monday.
No disturbance of any kind occur-
red last night. Business interests hero
are gratified at the change of govern-
ment. A striking feature of the
change is the fact that the Cuban flag
has not been lowered. This estab-
lishes a precedent in provisional gov-
ernments and protectorates. In his
proclamation Secretary Taft says:
"In so far,as consistent with the na-
ture of the provisional government
under the authority of the United
States, this will be a Cuban govern-
ment confirming the constitution of
Cuba. The Cuban flag will be hoist-
ed as usual over the government
buildings of the Island."
TROOPS FOR CUBA.
Secretary Taft Asks That They Be
Sent at Once.
Washington, Sept. 29.—Secretary
Taft has cabled from Havana to Act-
ing Secretary Oliver to send Ameri
can troops to Cuba in accordance with
the program already arranged. There
are 5,500 soldiers ready to start from
Newport News.

M 'is
bly have Influenced two or more sub-
divisions, one directed at the Emperor

PLETED ITS PLAN.

late a Plan That Will Give an
Elastic Currency That Will

tee on Federal legislation of the
American Bankers' Association, con-
sisting of Arthur Reynolds, E. F.
Swinney, Joseph A. McCord, W. ,V.

its plan for the credit or clearance
currency to be' submitted to the an-
nual convention in St. Louis, Mo.,

the President, to number seven and
to be non-partisan.

currency may be issued by any na-

commission, not to exceed 50 per cent

may remain outstanding,' shall be dei
termlned by the commission.

credit or clearance currency mUjSt pay
at the rate of 1 per cent per annum
during the time fixed by the commis*
sion for Its redemption.
Fifth—The tax on the clearance cir-
culation, after deduction of the ex-
penses of the commission, and the {

be deposited with the treasury of the
United States as a fund known as
"bank credit note circulation fund."
