Few Americans in Havana Ramon O. Williams' Statement. Ramon O. Williams, who resigned as Consul of Havana In June, 1896, after liaving occupied that important post for more than twenty years, spoke American interests In Cuba, when seen by an Eagle reporter at his home, 35 Cambridge place, this moaning. 'General "Williams says that 'the Americans, now at Havana and in the surrounding town's ought not to have any trouble in reaching che United States.

Altogether, in fieneral Williams' opinion, there are net more thin fifty' Americans living in Havana, although the number of Americans actually In the country is probably considerable greater when the tourists and excursionists are'taken into consideration. When General Williams resigned ills posi ait Havana there vere not more than thirty citizens ol the United States who really called Havana their home. "And that is easily, explained," said General Williams, "when we realize that batter advantages "are offered men to stay in this country and that those who go to Cuba must have some special interest in view. "While there are many American interests in Cuba," continued General Williams, "there are but few strictly American industries. John iiamden of Baltimore established a large iron foundry in Havana early, in the century.

It still exists, and belongs to his children. I believe, however, that It has been closed for several months. J. C. of Boston, once a wealthy merchant in Havana, left valuable property, which is now held oy his heirs.

It consists principally real estate, as does also the property held by the relatives of the late John Ninninger of Baltimore. Zaldo Co. are large sugar house owners and I believe that they control a good sized plantation. George Lawton Childs is a merchant in Havana, arf" he, by the way, is also the agent for the Plant Line. Then there are a great naturalize! Cubans who own real estate, are in business and, in fact, are prominently connected with the railroads, the banks and the big business, houses." General Williams then mentioned the following named who, he explained, are interested in plantations in different parts of Cuba: Edward Atkins of Boston, Perkins, Welsh Co.

of New York, wners of the chief cane plantation in the tropics; Henry Heidigger, Mosely Bros, of New York, John Loeber Welsch of Philadelphia, the Philadelphia Company and Joseph Farrell of Connecticut. Other plantations in Cuba are those owned by the Stewart family of Philadelphia, the Pon vert family of New York, the McCulloch family of Yonkers. "Many of these plantations are now of no value," continued General Williams, "inasmuch as they have either been destroyed by war or ruined by the economic condition of affairs in Cuba. Of course it must be understood that Americans who have plantations in Cuba receive no special protection, inasmuch as all who buy property in a foreign country do so in accordance with the laws of that General Williams does not hesitate to say that in his belief Spain and the United States are both responsible for the present unsatisfactory condition of affairs. Both governments he contends have acted unwisely "The economic system under which Spain has always administered the affairs of Cuba is a most wretched one," saJd General Williams to the Eagle reporter.

"The Spanish government in Cuba is based on taxation like the government in all other countries, but taxation there like ail other countries in turn is based on the industries of that country. But the industries, in order to bear taxation, must be exchanged for something else, and the products of Cuba being exchanged in the United States, to the extent of 94li per cent of last year, therefore, the taxation which supports Spanish power in Cuba is really based on taxation of the United States. Cuba, by the working of natural economic laws, has been brought into the commercial system of the United States and is to day just as dependent upon the United States as any state in the Union, but she Is still held to the political system and tih laws of Spain and hence we have the parable of Scriptures over again: 'A kingdom divided against itself cannot The Cuban problem is purely economic, but it has been made a milit political and jingoistic question. Hence. present state of affairs.

The outcome will be independence or ruin." MAY BE MORE INVESTIGATIONS. Possibility That Former Shortage in Long Island City Water Department May Be Inquired Into. to the Eagle.) Long Island City, L. April 8 No motion was made this morning in the Supreme Court by Thomas E. Burke, counsel for Joseph Mc Kenna, the former cashier and.

chief clerk of the Water Department of Long Island City, for permission to Inspect the minutes of the Grand Jury upon wh ich McKenna was indicted on Monday last. The matter went over by arrangement until Monday next, the minutes not having been transcribed. It wa said this morning that when the McKenna case comes to trial the matter of the alleged shortage in the accounts of the Water Department, discovered some six years ago, wll be inquired into. The fact of such a shortage having been discovered was known at the time and an effort was made, it is said, to have one of the officials indicted, but the efforts failed by one vote. The alleged shortage at that time amounted to something like $23,000.

The examination made disclosed receipts from different persons for amounts aggregating the sum named, but inasmuch as no authorization for the expenditure of the money could be found, the receipts were Ignored and the matter created as a deficiency. The alleged shortage was found by John P. Madden, who succeeded Joseph Fiesel as chief clerk of the Water Department. Madden is now deputy commissioner of highways for the borough, and Fiesel is secretary to President Bowley. Deputy Madden said this morning tliat when he took charge of the department he found the receipts, but could find' no authorizations for the expenditures.

Secretary Fiesel says that he left receipts for every cent expended, and that for that reason there was no deficiency when he left the department. CHARGED WITH BIGAMY.

This may read as. though we were putting it a little strong, because it is generally thought by the majority of people that Dyspepsia in its chronic form Is incurable, or practically so. But we have long since shown that Dyspepsia is curable, nor is It such a difficult matter as it first appears.

The trouble with Dyspeptics is that they are continually dieting, starving themselves, or going to opposite extremes or else deluging the already over burdened stomach with "bitters," "after dinner pills," which invariably increase the difficulty even if in some cases they do give a slight temporary relief. Such treatment of the stomach simply make matters works. What the stomach wants is a rest. Now how can the stomach become rested, recuperated and at the same time the body nourished and sustained? This is the great secret and this is also the secret of the uniform success of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. This is a comparatively new remedy, but its success and popularity leaves no doubt as to its merits.

The tablets will digest the food anyway, regardless of condition of stomach. The sufferer from dyspepsia according to directions is to eat an abundance of good, wh'olesome food and use the tablets before and after each meal, and the result will be that the food will be digested, no matter how bad your dyspepsia may be, because as before stated, the tablets will digest the food even if the stomach is. wholly inactive. To illustrate our meaning plainly, if you take 1,800 grains of meat, eggs or ordinary food and place it in a temperature of 98 degrees, and put with it one of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets it will digest the meat or eggs almost as perfectly as If the meat was enclosed within the stomach. The stomach may be ever so weak, yet these tablets will perform the work of digestion and the body and brain will be properly nourished and at the same time a radical, lasting cure of dyspepsia will be made because the much abused stomach will be given, to some extent, a much needed rest.

Your druggist will tell you that of the many remedies advertised to cure dyspepsia none of them has given so complete and genera! satisfaction as Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, and not least In importance In these hard times is the fact that they are also the cheapest and give the most good for the least money. A little book on cause and cure of stomach trouble frea by addressing Stuart Marshall. Mich. On the appearance in court of the first wife, who said that she had been legally married to Catherwood. Magistrate Wentworth issued a warrant for the arrest of Catherwood for bigamy.

Catherwood heard of the warrant and he gave up his place with the Central Storage Warehouse, at Eleventh avenue and Twenty seventh street, saying he was going South. He was caught last night on Eleventh avenue. He refused to talk of the claims of the two women. He waived examination and was held for trial 'n ball.
