The timely landing of the Denver’s men aaved Havana last night from an Insurgent attack. Palma has given up hope of win ning by force of arma In spite of the war party In the palace. Should Palma resign Vice President Capote will assutne the presi dency. Llut the universal opinion Is that the Americana will have to atay then, for the war will continue.

Mr. Beveridge Is a member of the senate committee on Cuban relations, and »HI participate In today's council.of war. Since the outbreak, the president has adhered to a conservative policy. H» has been determined from the beginning not to Intervene unless It was absolutely necessary to do so. He wants to be perfectly sure of hi* ground before committing the United States to a role which, ortce assumed, would bare to be played out to the end. The sending of men of war to Cuban waters, It ha* been maintained, was a precautionary- measure, which this country would not have failed to take, for the protection of Its eltlsens no matter where a revolution had broken out. But In spite of the assertion that the Denver's marines were disembarked solely to guard the United States legation at Havana, the landing of an armed force aeema to many to be the first »tep In this coun try's participation In the crisis which the affaire of the Cuban republic Uve now reached. . ..

JJ| This action Is merely a reflection of the btg row In the association of two years ago, when the question of alien Immersion nearly spilt the organiza tion In twain. At that time Dr. I.en G. Broughton nnd the member* of the Baptist taber nacle, of Atlanta, arrayed themselves ngnlhst nearly all of the other members of the association. The tight was bit ter, but Dr. Broughton nnd tils furies apparently won out. because the Tab ernacle stayed In the association, and the subject wus dropped. Dr. Brough ton then refused absolutely to hedge on his stand and said he would with draw from the association before hs would change his position. The action of the Calvary church delegates came somewhat ns a surprise, but they stated they were only repre senting the spirit of their church when they declined to cwnprom subject of alien Immersion. the GRAND 80N OF 8AMPSON ADMITTED AS MIDSHIPMAN Annapolis, Md. 8ept. 14.—Roy C.
