Washington. 1). C.?President Iloo?cvelt lias signed the agreement drawn under the terms of the Piatt amenduieut providing for the acquisition by the United States of naval bases at Guantantmo and Buhia Honda, both in Cuba. The document bad previousi ly been signed by President Palma and i was brought to Wushiugton by MlnI isters Squiers. I It does not specify the price of the , properties to be acquired by the United states, and tuts detail is left to tbe settled by tbe usual legul comleuiuatory proceedings, after tbe Navy Department bus decided exactly tbe amount of land it wishes at each place. The agreement does not require afI firmative action by tbe United States Senate, although It is understood President Palma intends submitting it for approval to tbe Cuban Senate as a matter of precaution against objection to bis individual actiou. Guantunamo and Babia Honda, the two points agreed upon, are highly spoken of by naval officers as being well adapted for tbe puritoses intended. Guantunamo has a magnificent harbor. in which almost the entire Navy of the United States can lie at anchor. Tbe harbor is sheltered nnd always accessible to vessels of tbe largest draught. It commands tbe Windward Passage. Babia Honda lies west of Havana on tbe nortbc :st coast, and occupies a commanding position with regard to the Yucatan Passage. It is the expectation to immediately commence making Guantanamo a strong naval station. For the present Baliia Honda will be used as a coaling station. Mr. Squiers has cleared up to tbc complete satisfaction of the State Department the important charges confided to him, with the exception of tne settlement of the possesion of the Isle of Pines. Th*?

The reason for the indifference is the unavailability of the island as a naval base owing to the shallow water surrounding: It. and the strong sentimental attachment of the Cubans for the place. Minister Sq titers speaks confidently of the outlook in Cuba. MNo one doubts the success of the Pnlma administration." he said. "Good order Is maintained throughout the island." Mr. Snuiers declared that American business interests were making steady progress in Cuba, and that American investors seem well sntisfled with the'investments. "Almost every week hear of new enterprises based ol American capital." said he. "I>resldent Palma's administration is very frlendlj to this class of Investors. "Occasionally up here you read ol Mntl.
