Telegram from Jacob Sleeper to William Loeb
Chargé d’affaires in Cuba Sleeper relays a message from the General Manager of the Western Railway to Secretary to the President Loeb that the Cuban rebels destroyed culverts, cut telegraph wires, and stopped several trains. The manager argues that since the Cuban government cannot protect their trains, they should stop train service west of San Cristóbal.
