Havana Sapt. it.—Oppoaltlon from
government and moderate sources has
caused anther temporary lull In the
peace negotiations. Secretary Taft 1
optimistic statement that he hoped to
be able to announce a settlement by
this evening now seems doomed to have
been visionary.
The American peace commissioners
had little difficulty at their conference
with the commtttoe of liberals and In
surgents last night In coming to an un
derstanding. Wheri the terms then
agreed to were put up by the govern'
emment for approval there was a balk.
President Palma, and especially the
satellites who have maintained them
selves In fat official positions while he
was president, objected to the terms
ns being too favorable to Insurgents.
They could not see their ivay clear to
agree to peace under the circumstances.
It Is understood practically all the
liberals' contentions were agreed to ex
cept that Palma should retire. This
meant new elections of congressmen
and senators elected a year ago and
new elections In the municipality.
Granting these new elections was to
throw a blight upon the legality of
Palma's own selection since he was
chosen at the same time. He objected
for one thing to the position the com
promise would place him In before the
world.
It Is possible that a flourish or two
of the big stick may bring Palma and
other recalcitrants Into line and Sec
retary Taft's confidence may have been
based upon the belief that he can at
the proper moment bring sufficient
pressure to bear to overcome govern
ment objection.
It Is not believed the present hitch
will endanger the negotiations perma
nently. _

Will Wage Fight to
Bitter End.
Specie) to The Georgian.
Macon, Oa.. Sept. 25.—Before an au
dlence of street car strike sympathisers
which packed the big city auditorium
last night, several apeakeri denounced
the Macon Railway and Light Com
pany officials for the stand taken In
the present controversy, and called
upon the people of Macon to give their
sympathy to the atrtkers.
Thla masa meeting was presided over
by President N. D. May, of the Central
Labor Union, and he, together with
National Bcpresentatlve Ben Commons,
Senator-elect T. 8. Felder, Hon. Joe
Hill Hall and others, made speeches
favoring the strikers, which were
loudly cheered.
All union sympathisers were urged to
boycott the street cars and walk, and
that the urging was heeded was evi
denced by the fact that the S.000 or
more people In the audience Ignored
tha street car/t and footed It to their
homes, many of them living In the ex
treme southern part of the city.
The heavy line imposed by Recorder
Nottingham In police court yesterdny
on a union sympathiser who yelled
"scab'' at a non-union man, came In for
mention and an effort was made to
question this decision.
Nearly all the cars are running and
the officials claim that by late this
afternoon the fact that there Is a strike
in progress will not be noticeable.

at work. The white messengers, too,
are hard to keep under the atreaa ot
excltemant. Especial difficulty la ex
perienced In getting messages deliv
ered In the suburbs.
Alfred M. Beatty, manager of the
Postal, stated Tuesday morning that
every effort was being made to secure
prompt delivery of messages, but the
indulgence of the public was asked for
any delaya owing to tha heavy handi
cap through the short messenger force
at work. He Is hopeful of having n
full corps of mesaengere on duty In the
next day or so.
Negro messengers are so frightened
over the situation that no Inducement
will keep them at work now.
MEETINGS ARE
BEING POSTPONED
"We do not feel that we can get pro
tectlon. We want to abide by the law
We want to stay In Atlanta. It la our
home. We want this lawless element
suppresied In our own race and we
want to do all we can to suppress and
quiet the feeling of bitterness which
now exists. We are willing to advise
our people to go home and to work and
quiet down, but we do not feel that we
can get protection when we do.
"When we go home we do not know
whether It Is our home or at what time
we will be aroused and dtlven out, and
may be murdered.
"We are going to go among our peo.
pie and ask them to go home and he
quiet We are going to urge them to
return to their work, because we know
that la what they should do.
•'We appreciate thfc great horror
which the white people feel townrd the
negroes for the recent crimes which
have been committed, and we want to
condemn these crimes as strongly as
wo can. We honor the white women
and every colored man present here
would die before he would think of
committing one of those awful Crimea.
"These are our eentlments, gentle
men, and we want to end this trouble
now threatening our llvss and the city
of Atlanta.
We feel, however, that wa can not
get protection. We do not feel that the
militia nor the police are our friends
or are with us In the fullest protection
of our lives. It seems to us that wo
can not get this. It we are assured-of
this and we know It will be given ui,
we can then co-operate to the fullest
extent and do all we can to bring an
end to this awful conflict.''
These statements were mads at _
conference between the business men
and leaders of the negro race Tuesday
morning In the committee room ot the
Chamber of Commerce, by Thomas
J. Slater, M. D„ a practicing physi
cian, who, as he said, goes Into many
of the homes of the negroes dally.
Editor Talks.
J. Max Barber, editor of The Voice
of the Negro, a local publication for
the negro race, also staled that he
wanted to remain In Atlanta. That he
had come here many years ago and
liked the city, but that ho felt he could
not get protection from the mobs and
was planning to leave Atlanta Tuesday
afternoon, as he did not want to en
danger hla Ilfs by remaining another
night In the city under the circum
stances.
The conference was a short one. It
was attended by well-known citizens.
Among them were: Robert F. Maddox,
John Temple Graves, Mayor-elect Joy

son. J. Max Barber, Thomas J. Slater,
Rev. Fountain, Willis Murphy and Rev.

The following was read by W.
Collier, of Tha Atlanta Independent,
negro newspaper, and tendered In the
nature of an address to the negroes of
Atlanta calling upon them to help en
force the law.
"The great mass of negroes of At
lanta and Fulton county are law-abld'
Ing citizens. They have been quiet and
orderly during the great storm on the
city tor the past sixty hours. They
ought to be protected from mob vlo
lence, and If the public and civil tui
thorltles have failed to give them pro
tectlon they should not forget that
they owe a duty to themselves In keep'
Ing quiet and orderly and Insisting on
the execution and enforcement of the
law against all kinds of crimes whether
committed by whites or blacks.
"They condemn the negro rapist, but
they Insist Innocent people of their rocs
should not be made to suffer for the
abominable crimes ot the guilty.”
This address to the colored people
calling upon them to enforce the law
was regarded as appropriate and It
was deemed wise to publish It for what
effect It may have.
Whits Leaders Speak.
John Temple Graves addrsased the
meeting and asked for co-operation
from the white people and the ntgroes
to the end of peace and order.
Robert F. Maddox stated that he was
present as one of a committee from the
business men to assure the negroes
that they would have protection as long
as they behaved themselves. He said
It was the aim. Intent and elfort of
the people of Atlanta to see that the
law-abiding negroes received all the
irotectlon necessary to save them from
njury and from the destruction of
PI Thls ,, nssuranee was put In very
forcible language by Mr. Maddox and
had the effect <T assuring the negroes
present that they could go among their
people and urged them to return —
heir homes and work.
Promise to Do But.
This they promised to do and further
to use every effort to prevent any more
trouble. .
Mayor-elect Joyner assured the
leaders of the race that protection
would be afforded them.
The general effect of the meeting
was regarded aa vary beneficial and It
Is believed that although the negroes
who desire to behave themselves feel
some apprehension that they will be
attacked by white mobs, yet the strong
assurances which ware given them at
tha meeting, It le expected will have a
very strong Influence In quieting
large portion of the rioting element.

tee of Japanese, headed, by W.
Aeamy, will be In Brunswick early next
month to Investigate fully the outlook
and prospect In this Immediate section
with a view to establishing n colony of
Japanese rice planters. This party
was here some several months ago and
Investigated the situation carefully. It
In expected that on the return trip. In

will be established during the fall and

'My grandfather was a famous work-
of stone, and he taught hie eon, my
father, whom ae a child I often uv »t
work. Undoubtedly ha would have
taught me ae I grew up but for the big
elckneee. He died, and I wa* never
taught, nor were any of my genera
tion.''
The explorer* vlilted the quarry from
which the volcanic atone that wns fash
ioned Into Implement! wa* obtained.
They saw that a vast amount of work
had been done there.
The etone flakes that had been
chipped from pieces ot rock covered
acres and were eeveral Inchee in depth.
Among theee atone chlpe were many
Implements In the earlier stages ,,f
manufacture, but no finished tools were
found.
The natlvea any their fathers used
to brenk the rocks Into workahle frag
ment! by dropping one upon another
from as high as a man could lift. The
ultimate ehans of the Implement de
pended greatly on the workman's skill
In cleaving: arid after he had secured
his piece of nearly suitable shape thu
work waa little more than begun. The
tool hod then to be carefully roughed
out, and finally came tlm grinding,
which was hard and long work.
The explorera found about a dozen
of these old gtindetones. The depres
sions worn into them by the grinding
process were circular, showing that the
grinding motion waa round and round
rather than back and forth. Sand and
water were used to help the grinding
process.
Many unground stones were sent to
other markets to be polished by their
new owners, but the natives nil say ‘
that no other stone workers were able
to obtain the beautiful, even polish
of the stones that were ground ut
Suloga.
These objects are now In great de
mand for museums and private collec
tion*. The leader of the British expe
dition writes that trader* find that they
can afford to pay from 525 to »5u tn
trade goods for a superior specimen
and are sure to sell It again at a hand
some profit.
Only a vague Idea of the detailed
methods used to produce these stone
objects can be obtained. This Is un
fortunate, os all the light that can be
thrown upon the modern stone uge is
needed to explain thoroughly the pro
cesses of manufacture ln pre-hlstorlc
times.—New York Sun.
