General Wood's report as Gov
General of Cuba, has
been made to the War Department.
It reviews the administration of
the affairs of the islands during
the past fiscal year, paying

judiciary, the steps taken for a new
civil government, etc. But the
most significant portion of the
whole contains an

During the hot months the annual

hive been particularly sweeping,
almost all the interior of the Cap-
building being repaired

room was about to emerge from a
ban of plaster, only a few
days ago the temporary plaster
ceiling, under the new steel one,
fell and hurt sever.-1 workmen. A
party of tourists under the
of one of the Capitol guides,
got out the nick of time. One
of the most ticklish jobs has
the putting of a steel counter-
part of the plaster ceiling of Stat

change should in no wise impair
