London, January 2. ,, Edward has sent the following telegram to the Ameer of Afghanistan to welcome him on his arrival in India: “The news of Your Majesty’s visit to my Viceroy and Governor General fills me with great satisfaction, since I regard it as a proof of the friendly relations between Your Majesty and my Government. I hope with all my heart that your tour may afford a welcome relief from the cares of State.” Reuter 1 s Bureau announces from Lundi Kotal that the Ameer’s arrival on British soil took place today. In his suite are 75 officers and 1,025 men besides many distinguished personalities of Afeha-' nistan. s In answer to an address of welcome the Ameer replied that it gave him great pleasure to visit India. NEWS FROM AMERICA. _ THE SITUATION IN CUBA. a New York, January 2. Some of the newspapers have been busily engaged for the past few weeks in an attempt to raise a scare with respect to the state of affairs in Cuba with a view, as it would seem, to strengthen the* movement for annexation. The well-informed Havana correspondent of the New York Herald telegraphs that there is no ground whatever for anxiety, but the information which he sends shows that the position is far from satisfactory, and affords ground for the belief that it will be a very long time before it will be possible to bring the present “provisional” arrangement to an end. The idea mooted only the other day of recalling the bulk of the United States troops now m the Island has been frankly abandoned, and it is doubtful whether the congressional elections will be allowed to take place. It looks as though every thing is working in the interests of those who desire annexation pure and simple, and among these, as most people know well enough, are various power ful corporations and financiers, whose influence at Washington still counts for a great deal. These men are accused of intriguing in Cuba to bring T* a ™ sln ?’ which would give the desired excuse a ? d J astlflcatlon for the abandonment of the fiction of Cuban sovereign independence. Mr. Taft, who has been credited with the belief the Cubans are perfectly fit to manage their own affairs, is said, to have been converted to the opposite view by events that have happened since ne iert Cuba. He is now the most powerful member of the Cabinet,-and a “presidential possi- ?°. . his views are bo und to influence the Administration. But there is reason to believe that he would not agree to actual annexation; at any rate, for a long time to come. He would like to see the United States playing permanently in Cuba a role similar to that which England plays m Egypt, and that, in all probability, will be the solution of the Cuban difficulty.

THE NEW BATTLESHIPS. T 4. a ... Paris, January 2. Last April six battleships, each of 18,000 tons. , ered to be Iaid down before the end of 1906, and to be completed in four years. Two of these new battleships, the “Denton” and “Mirabeau ” were laid down some months ago at Brest arid Lorient, and the other four, which will be called “Voltaire,” “Diderot,” “Condorcet,” and “Verg- maud,” were ordered yesterday to be laid down u- t , iaisterial decree in four private French shipbuilding yards. These four warships will cost altogether about £8,000,000. Their type has been the subject of a great deal of discussion, and some alterations have been made since last April Thus the dimensions have now been fixed, as follows- Displacement, 18,350 tons; length, 475 feet; beam, oolnn 1 ?'’ g ' 27ft. 8 '/ 2 in.; turbine-engines Ot 22,500 horse-power; four screws, and an official speed of 19 knots; coal supply, 2,010 tons; radius of *aetio» steaming at-TU knots, 8,130 miles- the artillery will consist of 4 guns of 305 mm., 12 of 240 mm., 16 of 75 mm., and 8 of 47 mm., with two torpedo-discharging tubes below the waterline. The a £ m o?n ed P™ tection will consist of an armouring SL - mi - tres amidships, and reduced to 200 millimetres at the extremities; the larger turrets will have an armour-plating of 300 milli metres, and the turrets holding the guns of 240 mm. will have an armouring of 220 millimetres. he personnel will consist of 31 officers and 650 men. Altogether, M. Thomson, the Minister of Marine, claims that these new battleships will be equal m all respects to the big warships now being built, or to be built by foreign Powers. GENERAL PICQUART’S TOUR. mi. ... . Toulon, January 2. The Minister of War, General Picquart, arrived here today. A large crowd had collected in the vicinity of the railway station and welcomed the General with cries of “Long live Picquart, long live Dreyfus, down with Mercier”. At the Arsenal General Picquart was welcomed by the workmen. He then repaired on board the cruiser “Conde” in order to pursue his journey to Biserta.

A fine ram continues to fall at intervals and may well be the cause of the many cases of illness among the troops. The intentions of the War Minister, El Gabbas, are not known, but it is prob able that the situation will remain unchanged for some time. Raisuli’s secretary was arrested today by Ben Mansur, hitherto Caliph, and some armed men just as he was on the point of fleeing to his chief at /iinat. He has been brought to Tangier as a prisoner. The incident is not without importance in its etfect on the maintenance of order. The populace m the vicinity continues to offer their subjection to the Government. Raisuli has sent the prisoners, whom he had hitherto kept confined in Zinat to Arzela, and has issued orders to close the gates of the town to the Maghzen’s troops. El Gabbas thereupon decided to send 600 men with 3 mountain fomorro^ 2818, ** ^ Said that they wiU Set out T , . Paris, January 2. It is announced from Tangier that the Caid of I- 3 been arrested because he, in spite of Kaisuli s deposition, sent considerable sums of money due to the Maghzen, to Zinat. The Caid was arrested by a mountain tribe which desired in tms way to demonstrate the sincerity of its re pentance for its former behaviour. Latest Telegrams on page 4. THE POLITICAL OUTLOOK. St. Petersburg, January 2. lhe authorities are determined to deprive as many people of their votes as they possibly can. Ihus the Senate has just dealt a heavy blow at certain Socialists, for it has decided that the owner ship of a separate dwelling shall carry the right to vote only if the dwelling has been occupied by its owner during the last year, even with inter ruptions. As many of the Socialists, who fled from Russia, are now returning home, they find that them absence for more than twelve months has lost them their right to vote. The Government is also concerned at the pros pect of the various political parties coalescing and forming a strong opposition; therefore, no means are being spared with a view to sowing dissension, and secret money has been supplied by the Govern ment for carrying on the propaganda on behalf of the Bureaucracy. There are signs that some of the parties will amalgamate their forces soon. The Lidvall scandal in the matter of sending out corn to the starving peasants has moved the Government authorities in the famine-stricken Governments to protest against the Government having given the firm of Lidvall the monopoly for buying up corn for the peasants dying of hunger. There must have been a great deal of peculation m high places, for the Government is trying to CURRENT TOPICS IN AMERICA. (By letter dated December 21st, from our New York correspondent.) THE POLICY HOLDERS’ ELECTION. Three days ago an electoral campaign whicl has never had its equal came to an end, the electoral campaign of the policy holders of the two largest insurance companies, the “New York Life” and the “Mutual Life Insurance Company”. One of the innovations introduced by the New State Legis lature, after the searching enquiry into New York Life Insurance companies in order to abolish a whole series of evils in the matter of insurance, " as ^ Passing of a law which regulated the elec tion of the directorate of the Insurance companies, and which made the exercise of their voting powers by the policy holders so much easier that the elections are no longer the farce they were before. Tins lew regulates the election of the directorate m all New York Insurance companies upon the b isis of reciprocity. The elections in all the companies took place on one and the same day but it was only in the case of the two great com panies mentioned above that the elections were of especial interest, because in these two companies a desperate struggle was raging between the so-called International Policy Committee, which represented the holders of individual policies, and between the financiers who have hitherto conducted the enter prises and who were placed in no very favourable
