Larger 

 Military 

 Academy 



Plans to create a larger 

 military academy for the 

 training of officers for the 

 army and rural guard will 

 shortly be approved. 

 There are in existence at present in Cuba 

 two military academies, one located at Morro 

 for the training of regular army officers and 

 another at Camp Columbia, for the cavalry 

 and rural guard. Both these academies are 



of a jjrovisional character and were but 

 founded two years ago. Before that date 

 military officers, except those of the artillery, 

 went into office without a previous training. 

 The length of the course at present is but 

 nine months. The new institution will make 

 the course from two to three years. 



Five 



Million 



More 



Owing to the financial strin- 

 gency, due to the cutting off 

 of the revenues from Euro- 

 pean imports by the war, 

 Government officials and 

 leaders of Congress realize that it will be 

 necessary to add $5,000,000 to the recent 

 ten-million-dollar loan, says the New York 

 Times. 



It appears that there has been some doubt 

 as to whether J. P. Morgan & Co. would 

 consent to the amplification, but it is said 

 that they have now expressed approval of 

 the bill to be introduced shortly in Congress. 



An official report from the Cuban State 

 Department states that a treaty of com- 

 merce has been signed between Cuba and 

 Peru, and has been submitted to the ai^proval 

 of the Senate.
