was ready to dlspatoh troops to the Isth

be demanded, .Although, the statement here

perfected, all military plsns to repel such
an Invasion. -
General Young said that should he be
'called upon to asfrist the naVy it would
not be necessei'y to 'send to the isthmus

HAVANA, Dec. .United States Min
ister Squlers arrived today from the United
States on a flying trip, wher half through
with hi vacation. Mr. Bquiers declined to
dlsjlose the object of his visit, but he had
an Interview with Foreign Minster Zaldo
In regard to the Isle of Pines matter.
Much . misunderstanding has dsveloped
among the Americana on the Isle of Pines
concerning the attitude of ' the United
State and Mr. Squlers In reference to the
safeguarding of the Interests of the Ameri
can residents In the treaty ceding the
Island. The feeling on this subject is In
tensified now that the ratification of the
treaty la pending at Washington. The com
plaints allege that Mr. Squlers, during-Ills
visits to the Isle of Pines specifically
promised that clauses conferring certain
local advantages would be Incorporated In
the treaty. These, mainly, were agree
ments that Cuba should establish a court
of first laetance and a register of deeds
In the Island and that It should also pro
vide an American school and a port of
entry. Although It waa manifestly Imprac
ticable to Include such matters In' an In
ternational treaty, these requests have all
along been preferred, as requests, toy Mr.
Squlers, besides which there was . an In
formal exchange of notes .on 'the subject
the day the treaty waa signed, -In which
Mr. Squlers named these requests, , and
the. acting secretary of state assured the
United States they would be granted If
practicable; -,. ., r '
.The Cuban government baa' shown eordlal
wlllinenese to grant the requests',' as was
shown yesterday ...by. the passage of the
house bill, in which provision Is made for
a court of first Instances and register ef
deeds for the Isle of Pines.
Oaba Establishes Caetoms Hoase.
The cabinet at a meeting tonight' ordered
the establishment of a customs house at
Nueva Gerona, the principal port of the
Isle of Pines. The government! thus com
plies 'with air requests of United States
residents of the Isle cf Pines with the
exception of that relating to the American
school. ' It Is believed, however, that the
school already established by the,' Ameri
cans on the islands will be given govern
ment aid. It Is thought those concessions
will dispone of much .of the opposition at
Washington to the ratification of tho
treaty.
Minister Zaldo told the Associated Press
tonight that Minister Squlers had all along
urged compliance with the reasonable de
sires of the American reeldents, and ba
added that the? .Cuban, government would
willingly supply such publlo convenience
as might be found necessary for the re
quirements of the new population of the
Island, as It realised that the special con
dition there required considerate treat
ment. '

UNTERMYER SEES DYSPEPTIC BEHAVIOR
Guthrie, La Tarn, Hears Statements
that Are'Almoet Indecent ana Both
Are Shocked by Each Other's
Deliberate falsehoods.
NEW YORK, Dec .-A sharp tilt be
tween' counsel enlivened the opening ox
the United States Shipbuilding receivership
hearing today. Mr. Guthrie characterised
a statement by Mr. Untermyer as "almost
indecent," and the latter retorted In warm
terms.
' Oeorge W. Perkins of the firm of 1. P.
Morgan A Co., resumed his teetlmony, his
presence on the stand renewing the inter
est In the case, which had slightly lapsed
during the lung drawn out testimony of
Lewis Nixon. It waa expected that Mr
Perkins would be dismissed today. Max
Pam and Mr. Bchwab are two Important
witnesses remaining to be heard, but coun
sel for the complainants announced that
they would not be reached today. Mr.
Pam was present, as he has been nearly
every day of he hearing.
At the opening. .Mr. Guthrie restored to
the flies In the case the copy of the Mor
gan, Harges sc . Co. letter,, which he took
away with him yesterday, thereby pre
venting Its publication, and Counsel Un
termyer resumed the examination on this
subject
The first question showed that this letter
enclosed a copy pt a letter sent by C
B. Alexander of. Alexander ft Green to
Morgan, Harges . A Co., and over the
Identification and admission of this copy
another . protest was made by Counsel
Guthrie.
Tears aad Dyspevela.
Mr. Guthrie repeated his protest s gainst
this letter boli.g furnished to the press,
evoking a warm reply from Counsel Unter
myer, who declared that he did not pro-
1 pose to submit to any more "dyspeptlo be
havior" - on the part of counsel, and said
that Mr. Guthrie had himself given out
unlntroduced teetlmony- for publication
and made a formal statement before the
examiner in regard to Mr. Guthrie s pro
tests about' publicity. Mr, Guthrie charac
terlaed 'this - statement as "almost , Inde
cent" and. the lie waa passed on both sides,
Mr. Guthrie speaking of "deliberate false
hood" 'on the part ot Untermyer, who re
torted In terms equally strong,
Mr. Perkins was asked to tell in detail
how he' came to cable to Paris the message
Introduced -yesterday,' referring to the In
terests of "Mr. Schwab and his friends"
In the shipbuilding company. He told of
three requests made by Colonel McCook of
Alexander ft Green, the first time asking
that Morgan A Co. cable to their Paris
house an endorsement of the shipbuilding
company. This was refused. Mr. McCook
then asked that the Paris branch be In
formed that Messrs. Bchwab, . Nixon and
others were Interested In the company,
that the properties were valuable and that
the men Interested were recommended.
What Perkins Promised.
Mr. Perkins consented to send a cable
gram on July 80 to the purport that Mr.
Schwab and his friends were Interested In
the new shipbuilding plant and would be
very glad "to have the Paris house take as
cordial Interest In It as Is consistent.
Mr. Perklna did not recall that Colonel
MoCook told hint anything or the condition
of the French underwriting -at' why the
reoommendatton was deeiredr-'
Mr,, Perklna .waa asked, what ha knew of
the shipbuilding; company at the time of
the sale of the Bethlehem plant, and he re.
piled lie knew very little about It, bVt the
contract for the sale provided that Morgan
ft Co. would receive the actual amount ot
cash advanced for the. Bethlehem company,
the tS.000,000 stock being taken in lieu of all
profits and Interest on the Investment.
Morgan eV Co. were also by this contract
to have a legal option on the organization
of the shipbuilding company.
"But what information did you or Mor
gan at Co. have ot the value oi tne stoca
ydu were taking in part payment or of the
value of the plants Included In the com
bination T" Mft untermyer asked.
Mr, Perkins replied that so far as he
knew "no investigation on this point was
mad by Morgan A Co.," but Mr. Unter
myer was not satisfied with the word, "In
vestigation" and insisted ' on an answer in
regard to any" Information or knowledge
of the shipbuilding plants or their values.
Mr. Perkins insisted that be had no
knowledge on July JO, when the cable was
sent, ot the plants, their values or their
earnings and had no concerto with the ship
building transaction, nor did he on August
11, when the sale of the Bethlehem plant
was closed, have any such knowledge to
give him an Idea of the value of the se
curities taken in part - payment.
I Perkins Man itraoraai.-
Asked about .Messrs. Dresser, Nixon and
Pam, Mr. Perkins declared that he had
known them only In a general way up to
the time of the sale of the Bethlehem
plant and that he did not know that Pam
waa representing Schwab. Mr. Dreiser In
asking for the loan was speaking as presi
dent of the Republic company. Mr. Per
kins had considered, but he had not inter
ested himself In tbe-questlon of whether
that trust company was responsible to the
extent of tl.000,000. , -
Mr. Perkins professed Ignorance on many
points, stating that th negotiations had
been In the hands of Mr. Steele, another
ot the partners. The Harris, Gates A Co.
' " Have you ever tried Scott's

tlatlon. J. P. Morgan, he testified, knew j
nothing, to witness' knowledge, of the I
shipbuilding deal during Its progress and
waa not lnfrfrmed during his stay In Europe
of the negotiations. -
After a number .of other professions of
Ignorance Mr. Perkins was turned over to
Mr. Guthrie for cross-examination. Mr.
Guthrie asked two questions about the
Sheldon syndicate- and on Mr. Perkins
stating his lack of Information the witness
was excused and pie hearing closed until
Thursday of . next week, when. Mr. Steele
probably will be. called In for further In
formation of Morgan 6 Co. 'a podtlon In the
negotiations.
Mr. Guthrie asked that Mr. Pam be sum
moned next on account of a contemplated
absence of three weeks after next week,
but Mr. Untermyer declared that there
were a number of witnesses, Including Mr.
Schwab, he Wished to hear first.
At the close of the hearing the Morgan-
Harges letter and enclosures were refused
to the press, until the court should have
passed upon their'' admissibility, Mr. Guth
