II. S. Marines on C uban Soil
Men from American cruiser camp in front of President
Palma's palace-=Land to protect American property
which Cuba's executive said he could not defend
[Special Dispatch to Daily Alaskan]
Havana. Sep. 14? One hundred and
twenty armed sailors and marines were
landed last night from ths American
cruiser Denver. They camped in front
of the palace of President Palma. This
action was the result of a conference of
American representatives with Pres
ident Palma in the course of . which the
latter said he was unable to protect
American inserests at the capital.
The landing of the Americans creat
ed wild excitement. It was believed
to be an indication that the United
8tates was about to take a hand in the
war.
AMERICANS NOT
TAKING SIDES
Washington, Sep. 14 ? The state de
partment issued a statement today say. J
in* that all the marines landed last
night at Havana, except a small guard
for the American legation, have been
ordered back on board the cruiser.
The statement is most emphatic that
the landing was for nothing else than
the protection of American interests.
The government was unadvised of t^e
landing until after it had taken place.
It can be sa'd positively that there
will be no more American marines
landed unless there ehall be rioting.
The United States is not taking sides
in the troubles between the insurrec
tionists and the government. It Is the
intention only to protect American
propertrj.
The navy department has ordered a
fleet of small war vessels to be prepared
to sail for Cuban waters.

Said Guggenheims Will
Take {Dr. Bruuer's Road
Seattle, Sep. 11? The Guggenheims I
are going to lake up Dr. Bruner'g plans
(or a railroad from Valdez to the inter
ior as the best solution of the vexing '
problem of a terminal for the railroad
they must have in order tojdeyeloped
their copper properties in Alaska.
With this idea in view they haye taken !
a controlling interest in the railroad
terminals controlled by Bruner near
Valdez.
Bruner's plans include the construc
tion of a harbor at Martin island and
connect It by rail with the coal fields in
the vicinity of Catelia and Koyak The
Guggenheim* will, it is said, extend the
road from the latter places to their
copuer properties.
Daniel Guggenheim has just return
ed from Alaska, and it is given out on
good authority, that while there he
closed a deal which gives him full con
trol of all Bruner's rights. He made
perscnal examination of all the pro
jected railroad terminals and decided
that those at Catfella were the most
feasible.

strong ground against the interference
of corporations in politics.
