WASHINGTON, ' Jan. 4. Assurances that the United States' is not contem plating -military intervention In Cuba were given today to the Cuban minister by Acting Secretary Davis, it was said at thev state deaprtment. v The minister: Dr.V Carlos Manuel iDe Cespe4es, was said to have, entered, jio protest from..his government agSinst the seeding of Major General CrowNder to Cuba toi'.., confer with tPresident Menocal relative to the general situa tion in the island republic. The min ister after his call, however, expressed some slight objection to the action of the American government, declaring that neither his attitude nor that of hia government as set forth in a re cent statement by him had been altered. In that statement the minister had as serted there was no ' grounds j for the supervision of elections. , Secretary Davis, discussed with Presi dent Wilson the Cuban situation and the mission of Gen. "Crowder just be fore -the minister called at the depart ment. The secretary told Dr. Cespedes there was little he could add to the President's , statement relative to the work Gen. Crowder is exepcted to ac complish in Cuba, adding that he had confidence in the ability of the Cuban autnorlties and Gen. Crowder to work out a satisfactory solution of the pres ent politicaKand financial difficulties.

The congestion of freight on ,the docks at Ha vana, the extension of the mora xorium and the demand for money with which tq finance the sugar here, today, in making the Cuban situa tion one of unusual interest for Amer ican business concerns. prevent the pres tine anri extravagant destruction -or forests to turn them into money, the "Jnoney so accumulated, within a quar ter of a century will not be worth 50 icents of the dollar, if fhat much.

"Despite the fact that several Detroit automobile plants .reopened yesterday after inventory, they riit so' with vstlv decreased forces and .mo,000 fewer men are em ployed here now than was the ease two weeks ago," George W. Grant, secre- ry of the Emnlover's association of Detroit said today. "A net increase of only 1,000 men have been added to th jworking: forces of the factories in tht past few days." i brant stated surveys concluded to jflay shewed only about 60,000, auto mobile workers employed in Detroit at present.

TRAVELING IN GERMANY IS GREATLY IMPROVED iNearer iNormai jnow man in Any Other European CQuntry Kopns indicattfig that hei will recom mend the nomination of Morris. In the last examination Wade-led,, with Morris second and -Willis third, but the sol diers' preference law entitled Morris to the certification if in the discre tion of the postoffice officials, he was deemed efficient- and worthy of the place, and he, 'v as so certified. It is understood that Wade's nomi nation would not have been confirmed, and that Morris will be solely on the grounds of his, military service. i- While Wade, ?in the-.examination, won fairly and emphatically the place, it is contended, partisan feeling had been aroused to such a degree that it, was found the Republicans were determined to reject his nomination, and it is the view of the Democrats here that Mr. Koons acted with good judgment when he made UP his mind to certify to the eligibility of Morris " and as the one entitled to the nomination.

' J . f ( - f : .ALLIED '(CHIEFS ' TO 5 MEET A ! , . j PARIS-." Jan. 4.- It is. offlciairy ' an MUNICH. Jan. 4V Traveling condi tions within Germany are more' nearly normal than in most other parts of Eu rope. Trains are frequent and gener ally on time when not compelled to wait for connections with trains from other countries. There are fewer traine de luxe than formerly. Many lines do not Operate first class sleeping cars. But most important trains carry sleepers with second class accommoda tions, that is two persons in each com partment. Few trains have dining cars although most ; sleeping car' conductors provide coffee and tea for passengers, and sanwiches, cakes and fruits can be had from vendors at nearly all import ant stations. Cars and station are clean and fair ly weir heated. ' The ' trainmen " are courteous to foreigners and talk French and English with apparent rel-v Ish. This Is probably due to the fact that foreigners are more liberal In their fees and German rallwaymen make such small salaries that they are eager to augment them. Travel to and from East Prussia is more troublesome than In any other part;' of the country. Most trains are delayed at " least two hours by Polish officials at the Danzig Corridor and fre quently the delay is much longer. The Poles require Polish vlseB for all pas sengers crossing the corridor ana tne fee for an American is $10, regardless of whether he desires to stop in the strin under Polish control. In the Rhineland the train service is especially good and all hotels and pen sions are extending a welcome to ior- eigners. For a time some hotels in Germany charged higher rates to for eigners from countries where the ex change was better than in Gertnany, especially .to Amencayo. xsut -um - ti ce has been abandoned by alii import ant hotels. Shopkeepers occasionally try to charge Americans and English men more than the marked price on their .goods, but the practice nas Deen resented so strongly that few import ant concerns continue it. The attitude of the German public toward English-speaking travelers is almost universally courteous. Occa sionally Germans will leave a compart ment where English is spoken; but the great majority of Germans seem to en joy ah opportunity to practice English and will frankly say so. EVEN TULSAS MAYOR GETS u POLICE "Siuvi .' uniuin TULSA, Okla., Jan. 4. Mayor T. D. Evans believes in Tulsa's "finest." He recently complained to the police chief that members of the force were not enforcing the "move on" ordinance. "Make the people abide by the law, the mayor commanded. Stopping to talk to an acquaintance a little later, the mayor rested on a box in front of a clothing store: "What's the trouble?" asked a pa trolman who "butted in." "Are you tired?"
