RICHMOND, Va., Fob. 13.—"1f Estrada Palma, newly chosen president of Cuba, ever lands on that island, there will fol low immediately a revolution betweeen tire whites and the blacks there which, will again tear the island to pieces," says Dr. Leonel de Peau, now in this city. Dr. de Peau has the honor of having been physician to Col. Theodore Roosevelt, now piesident, during the war in the island between the Spanish and American forces. Further, Dr. de Peau says that Palma was never wanted as president by the better element; and that the moment the United States troops are withdrawn there will be another conflict. Annexation, says Dr. de Peau, is the only solution of the present situation in Cuba. Because of the tariff against Cuba sugar planters cannot move. They have no money and no means of raising any without giving from IS to 22 per cent on it, and he thinks the spirit of internal dissension will tear the island to pieces, and that the United States will be com pelled to take hold again. This is what is desired by the better element, Spanish and Cuban alike, he declares, and he is now on his way to Washington to see President Roosevelt, a personal friend, and -.1 the execution cf his more direct mission to tell him about the conditions on the island. Senor de Peau came to tho United States to see President Rooseveit per sonally about the loss of his family fortune in Cuba. Vast tracts of land which Spain never owned, he says, have been sold there, and among them the private interests of hundreds of residents of the island. Now he says hundreds are starving on the island and the United States' is pouring .a flood of labor there instead of utilizing the labor at hand, and the result is that, although some three years have elapsed since me close of the war, Cuba has made little progress because of the fact that there is no money there.

GROTON, Mass., Feb. 13.-The most eventful day at the Groton school since Theodore Roosevelt Jr. became ill closed with the departure of President Roose velt for Washington late this afternoon. Before that the president in the home ly phrase, "Ted has improved with such rapid jumps that I am sure he is out of the woods," had told to the world of the load lifted from his mind. After the morning .examination by Drs. Lambert and Warren it was announced that the boy's condition was progressing favorably. The report said that the lungs were clearing well, although the patient was still in the second stage of pleuro-pneumonia, known to the medical men as the stage of exudation. The boy rested well all day, although his pulse was somewhat accelerated for a short period this afternoon because of the departure of his father. This morning after visiting his son, the president spent most of his time transacting official business. Before lunch he called on the other patients, the Gammel and Potter boys, and cheer-* ed them up with kindly greetings. Then he held a brief interview with the news paper men who had made that place their headquarters."" At 4:15 p. m., ac companied by Mr. Cortelyou, he left !n a carriage for Groton village station. A special train was in readiness to take the party to Worcester. Many persons had gathered at the station and in re sponse to their cheers he doffed his hat. Mrs. Roosevelt has borne up well un der the strain. She will be relieved some what during the next few days by Miss Alice Roosevelt, who will leave Wash ington tomorrow for Groton. It is hoped to remove Theodore Jr. to the White house within ten days, but the boy will return to Groton to com plete his course as soon as his health will permit.

' CHICAGO, Feb. 13.—"Since our occu pation of Cuba we have not done ona thing to repair the ravages of the war. ) We have re-established no families in their homesteads, nor attempted to re stock barren farms and plantations. We j have not taken a single step to extend , the commerce of the country so as to en. able the island to recover from the dcv- ' astation of the recent war." . In these words Gen. James IT.

"We pledged ourselves at the begin-* ning of the war," he said, "ag.unst the intention of exerting any sovereignty over the island, and promised to with draw our army as soon as pence wag restored, and although perfect order has existed for two years our army is siill in possession of the country.' The. remedy proposed by Gen. Wilson is immediate reciprocity with Cuba.
