TO MAKE LIBERAL APPROPRIATION FOR WORLD'S FAIR. & KEPUBUC SPECIAL. Washington. Aug. S. President I'alma has sent to the Cuban Congre.w a ni".- sage asking its co-operation in providing for the participation of Cuba In the St. Louis Exposition. A copy of the message was receh'ed by Commissioner Pepper from Minister Quesada to-day. President Palma recommends that the Congress make a liberal appropriation. Ho suys that in the actual circumstances, when Cuba has become an indppend- ent and sovereign nation, it should take advantage of the favorable occasion which is presented and should, be represented at the International celebration along with other nations. He also speaks of it as a debt of courtesy to the United States, with which Cuba is so closely allied. . President Palma in his message draws special attention to the advantage it will be to the Industrial Interests of Cuba to be represented at the Exposition In the most extensive manner possible, since the Directors have offered such unusual fncililties for the exhibit of the products and "manufactures of the island. " Q TO CLEAN UP ST. Street Poises Will Start to Work 'ifontTay Morning "Conference of Citv Officials Over Plans. Chiefs of municipal departments yester day pledged Mayor Wells, at a conference held In his office, to have all streets, alleys and sidewalks In the city cleaned within a week and to inforce the ordinances, after August 18. so that the entire city will be kept clean. The officials assured the Mayor that they will co-operate In compelling compliance with the law. The whole cleaning and sweeping force of the Street Department, with wagons, carts and brooms, will start to work early Monday morning In the central section of the city. After that district is cleaned the men will extend operations in all direc tions until all dirt and refuse Is removed from every street and alley within the cor . poratc limits. Street Commissioner' Varrelman told Mayor Wells yesterday that he had already detailed laborers to the cenjral district and was prepared to report progress. He said that, with the whole force at his -command, he will be able to finish all the work within about a week, provided the men are not delayed by rain. COPIES OF ORDINANCES DISTRIBUTED OVER CITV. Copies of the ordinances relating to public -cleanliness will be distributed among mem bers of the police force, and Captains, Sergeants and patrolmen will be Instructed to enf jrce the laws. Prerident Hawes of the Board of Police Commissioners said that 25.000 pamphlets containing these ordi nances will be delivered by patrolmen to householders in. all parts of the city, so that ciUzens may know their obligations toward keeping public places clean. The Mayor directed the Police. Street and Health departments to co-operate In get ting the city clean, and to keeij it clean. He Instructed the officials to have the sub ordinates of these departments keep watch on each other and report dereliction in duty. The conference was attended by President Hawes of the Board of Police Commission ers, Street Commissioner Varrelmann, Health Commissioner Starkloff. Chief of Po lice Kiely, City Attorney Taylor, Assistant City Attorneys Dawes and Burgess, and Judges Tracy, Sldener and Zimraermann. The meeting was called to order at 3 o'clock In the afternoon by Mayor Wells. Briefly he referred to the lnspecUon of police stations and districts made this week by the Board of Police Commissioners, say ing the advantages of co-opJration between municipal departments were realized when the police officers and patrolmen were being admonished to enforce the laws. The op portunity had been seized, he said, to Im press upon the men the necessity of keeping the city clean, and he concluded that great results could be accomplished If the Police Department were assisted by other depart ments of the city government. CLEANING WILL START EARLY MONDAY MORNING. "Now." said the Mayor, "I want the! Street Commissioner to begin early Mon-f day morning to cleanse every alley In the city. If possible, the work should be com pleted by Saturday night, so that we shaU have a clean city by Monday, August 1S- "The Police Department la expected to notify, at once, every householder that .Xtrpet nlloi-a .nil crlfarr-allra mef Vt& Irant that they will be prosecuted if they fail to obey the law. "I want the Chief of Police to notify every Captain.

Steps will be taken to inspect beats; not with the ob ject 'of reporting householders for viola tion, but for the purpose of ascertaining how patrolmen are dolnp their duty. "I want the Health Commissioner to in sist on better collecUon of garbage. This must be done, by hook or crook; It must be done.

"We desire the hearty co-operation of Judge3 of police courts and prosecuting at torneys." This is not a partisan, personal matter. It is something in which every citizen is interestefl. Outside of our duty as officials to have the law enforced and the city kept clean, we should, as men, taka a great, deep interest in it. We must do all we can to have the city kept In a cleanly condltion. "That, in a nutshell, is the proposIUon. The idea is organization, united action. If each department will do Its duty, it will not be long before the city will see the re sults, and they will be more anxious to do right. "Since -I have been in this office my ex perience has been that citizens 8o net complain about obeying the law when they know partiality is not shown. There must be no discrimination. Everybody must be treated alike. The results will grow, and ultimately we shall not only have a clean city, but the character of the people will be Improved aa well." The Mayor adjourned the meeting after repeating his earnest desire for co-opra-tlon on the part of all officials. Addressing a few words to the Judges and prosecuting officials, he requested them to aid, as much as they caD in iirjFrovlng conditions. "No doubt," he said, "they will' do this any how, and it is unnecessary to make a for mal request." PATROLMEN WILL BE HELD PERSONALLY RESPONSIBLE. Policemen will be held personally respon sible for unclean streets in the future. An order Issued by Chief Klely at the insti gation of the Police Commissioners yester day instructs the patrolmen to see that the streets on their beats are kept free from dirt and notifies them that any infraction of this rule will result In charges against them. The order follows: "You are hereby instructed to personally notify the citizens of your beat that the or dinance will be strictly enforced. A thor ough Inspection of the city will be made on Monday, August 18, 1302. Any patrolman whose beat Is found In an uncleanlv con dition at that time will have charges) pre ferred against him and sent before the Board of Police Commissioners. No excuses will be accepted or delays granted. You.are further instructed to Immedi ately report to the Captain of your district any streets, sidewalks or alleys that are In an Improper condition at the present time, so that the Street Department may clean and repair when necessary. "Extra copies of the above ordinance may be secured by officers at the various stations, to be f-irnlshed those citizens who are not familiar with the law.

"A party of men. none of whom I knew, seated themselves at an adojining table. Their conduct was un.-eemly and boisterous. They talked loudly and their comments up on members of my party and upon me were Insulting, to put it very mildly. "In the circumstances, accompanied as I was by the ladles. I could not resent their actions or their words at that time. They evidently were seeking trouble, so. without attracting any more attention than possi ble. I got my party out of the restaurant. 'Then I returned." continued Mr. Knox, with a smile, "to see if the men really were looking for me. I think they were, for scarcelv had I awroached them, when they sprang up.

"You do not know who were In the party of your assailants?" the Attorney General was asked. "Not positively. I understand that Chas. T.

A newspaper of to-day says that It bad some thing to do with my attitude on the trust question, but that seems to be entirely un likely. As they sat at the table In the restaurant they made' no reference to the action which, as Attorney General. I have takenagalnst certain so-called trusts. Their remarks-'were personal to me and to my family, and wers of such a nature that X could do nothing but resent them. "I understand that after I left the restau rant at the conclusion of the difficulty, the waiters suppressed the crowd with some energy." The Attorney General evidently was not In the least injured by his assailants, and as he chatted about the trouble, did not seem to regard it very-seri:usly. SCHOEN GIVES HIS VERSION.

"I have no recollection of any unpleasant remarks being made by our little party. Mr. Cramp Is a regular Chesterfield and Mr. Stevenson is like him.

He leaned over our table and threw at us a very strong line of adjectives.
