ed Ferrara Awaits an
.Answer to Note.
ahiogtan, June 17.--Ore8te fer-
rara. Speaker, of the Cuban House of
Representatives; ja waiting la Wash
tngton for an answer to his note to See
rtry Knox last Tuesday calling at
tention to the eeling of Unrest created
in Havana by the widespread; doabtaa
to the bi tent ions of the ' United StaUs
goarnmeut toward Cuba and soliciting
some sort of declaration on the subject
from the 8?crelary of State,-
- The statement issued to tbe press from
the State Department Was the result
of this application, hut Senor' Ferrara
will today recelv a note from Secre
tary Kn-tz expatssing in a more formal
way the policy of the Washington ad
ministration. "
The underlying note of the statement
was the exptession of Impatience that
It should be regarded as rifeeessary for
the State D pari men t to continue to is
sue its declarations of good faith. Of
ficials point out that on no less than
three occasions either President Taft or
Secretary Knox has assured the Cuban
government that the United States has
no intention of intervening in tbe poli
ileal affairs of the island unless driven
to do so by the failure of the Cuban
government to maintain law and order
and protect pr'pp.-rty.
There is much talk in an unofficial
way among a' my officers and State Da
pari men t people to the effect that it is
now the duty of the Cuban government
to show a great deal more energy and
deteimlmtion in suppressing the le
hellion than it has done.
No attempt is made to disguise the
diasatisfact on felc by officials here over
what they regard as the unnecessary
extension hy Genet at Monteagudo, of
tha (.eriod of amnesty to inaurrectos for
ten dny more. Officials are quite at a
loss to understand why the disorderly
element is vcluntaipy allowed more
time to loot, pllege and burn property
of foreign owneis.
For this reason the State Department
has firmly declined to yield to the in
timation coming from Havana that tbe
American battleships be withdrawn.
Secretary Knnx is detei minod that as
far as American marines and
b'ue jackets can extend p o ection
where the Cuban army has failed, the
American naval forces ah ill be main
tained id even btrt ngt htLed if necessary.
