Holmes were two of the five seniors whom be instructed. Major Dudley is now judge advocate of the department of Cuba. He has been stationed at Havana in this capac ity ever since military occupation of the island. He went to Cuba and began his labors under General Brooke. He waa retained in that position by General Wood, who now says ne cannot get along Tbc worfd j jove Uving moL without him. His headquarters are at Havana. Mrs. Dudley has bnen with him iu Cuba the greater part of his stay there, leaving only the first summer through fear of an epidemic of yellow fever. She will return with him in Oc tober. Major Dudley says that Genrral Wood is doing everything in his power to carry out the promises of congress and to organize a stable government for the island. Last Saturday's election named thirty -one delegates to the constitution al convention, and Major Dudley thinks the future of the island rests largely with the action of this convention. It the convention proceeds in a business, like way to the preliminary organization of a government it will be easy for the United States to fulfil its promises. If not it will be necessary to continue mil itary occupation of the ialand until an other constitutional convention can form a government. The elections have been quiet and orderly. The people seem to take a great interest in forming a new government. Major Dudley does not regard Cuba as an objectionable place in which to live. Ths only thing to be feared there is tho yellow fever, and if military occu pation were to be continued long enough all danger of an epidemic of this dis ease would be passed. This government in a very few years would eradicate the fever in the island. The island is fertile and productive of great wealth. Xhe cleaning ap of the city of Havana was a job of no small proportions. Cess pools were located under many of the houses of the city, and the buildings, streets and alleys were filled with filth, decaying vegetation and wood. It was a great task to clean the city, but it was done thoroughly, and with thousands of soldiers in the island an epidemic of fever waB prevented.
