The president <>f the first republic of Cuba retires to private life without a dollar." This statement was made by Senor Quesuda, the Cuban minister, who has just cabled Palma an invitation to come to the United States and live at his (Quesada's) home. Said Quesada today: "After spending forty of the seventy-three years of his life in lighting for Cuban liberty, President Palma leaves his palace In Havana destitute of funds. His private 'fortune as well as the best energies of his life have been poured out In the cause of his country." Senor Quesada today received n telegram from Secretary Taft requesting: him to withdraw his resignation which Queusada sent Saturday. Quesada will remain for the present, at least, as the official representative of "Cuba in  By Publishers' Press. LONDON, Oct. 1.—Diplomats hero today are agreed in the declaration that the United States will eventually control Cuba as the English control Egypt.

"POUCt 16" IS A SUICIDE A1 Adams Ends His Own Life Following Heavy Reverses The parent church was organized February 4. 1S10, in Dickson County, Tennessee. The meeting was held in a little l«>g house in the Cumberland Country," hence the name, Cumberland Presbyterian. The organizers were three ministers, McAdoo, who owned the building, King and {Swing. These men were (he leaders of a sect which took a medium stand between Calvinism and Arminianism, on two vital propositions, 'election and atonement. Calvinism teaches that election is unconditional and that none but those who were "elected from the foundation of the world" will be saved. Arminianism teaches that there is no election in this life and that the atonement of Christ was made for all mankind. The Cumberland Presbyterian, or medium system teaches that there is an election, Tin meeting of the Pennsylvania Synod of the Cumberland Presbyterian Church in this place last week, was notable as it was the last synod that will ever be held by that denomination.By Publishers' Press. NEW YORK. Oct. 1.—A1 Adams, the former "policy king," committed suicide at his apartments in the Ansonia Hotel today. The resons given for his desire to end his life was despondency over the Ill-fame he earned by his connection with policy games, the heavy failure of the brokerage firm of M. J. Sage and Co., and of mining ventures In which he was the principal backer. Iietters foupd in Adams' rooms where he lived alone, indicate that he died worth from $8,000,000 to $10,- 000,000.

Irving, presided has been a memorable one because it is the last gathering of Its kind that will ever he participated in by the various presbyteries composing the Synod and marks the end of a religious denomination that was strictly American, one that, although comparatively shortlived, has produced a remarkable change in the theology of a large body of professing Christians. All members of the Palma cabinet have been notified by Secretary Taft that he will appoint ministers within the next ten days and that in the meantime a number of sub-seeretaries will perform all the work that is to be done. An additional force of five hundred marines arrived today aboard the Battleship Kentucky and will be landed before the day is over. There was no parade of the landing forces, the men being dispatched at once to their headquarters. HAVANA, Oct. 1.—Absolute quiet reigns over the entire city today. There was not the slightest disturbance during or following the landing of the marines and blue jackets. About two thousand men who were aboard the American warships now in Havana harbor began coming ashore early this morning and it will be. but the matter of a few hours before the entire number will be encamped at Camp Columbia.
