He declared he had nothing to take back, and would gladly make any sac rifice iit exchange for the assurance that regulation Instead of government ownership would solve the problem. He was of the opinion, however, that regulation would not accomplish the desired end. Ovation For Bryan. There was a groat outburst of cheers *hcn Mr. Bryan asserted that when ever he saw a danger threatening the People he had spoken out without xisk- •ng anybody's permission or querying what the effect might be on him. He [•raised President Roosevelt for bring ing peace between Russia and settling strike, but said that In all Popular movements the president had *°it'n his authority from the Demo- rratlc platform. This was largely he said, In Mr. Roosevelt's efforts regulate the trusts. He condemned imperialism, and traced a connection wtween n protective tariff and unlaw ful predatory combinations of wealth.

Havana, Sept. 13.—That the arrival here of the United State, cruller Den* ver. and the fact that other American warship, are on the way, either to Cuba or within hailing distance of the Island, la taken here to mean that the United States Is preparing to Intervene and restore order In Cuba. The foreign element, especially those Interested In sugar and tobacco growing, earnestly hope that this Is true, while a ma jority of Cubans fear It. The late developments make it ap parent thnt nothing short of the sur render of Palma and his government or American Intervention will restore order, and It is doubtful If. either will for a time at all events. Should Palma abdicate there would be certain to be a. light sooner or later among the lead ers of the present movement as to who should hove power. Exciting rumors are that the rebels of Santa Clara and Plnar del Rio prov inces are marching upon Havana and trill concentrate their forces and attack the city. The wooden railroad bridge at Taotaco, near Consolaclon, was burned by the rebels yesterday. Pino Guerra expects now to burn the rail way stations and to blow up the bridges and suspend traffic. Loyalists Ars Beatsn. News reaches here today that the rebels have looted the city of Gaines, which Is In the wealthiest agricultural district of the province. It Is reported that there was a desperate light before the loyalists retreated, but that they were overwhelmed. News of the same kind comes from Guyamaja, an Important town on the borders of Plnar del Rio. Three trains have returned to Havana this morning having found It Impossible to cross the Clabnzar bridge, which Is burning. All the telegrnph llnrs belonging to the comiiany have been cut. The govern ment lines have alse been cut. The manager of the Western railroad called on Secretary Montalvo this morning nnd asked military protection. Montalvo told him It could not be giv en. All the troops, the secretary said, were needed In Havana. The manager Is urging the British minister to take action. A bill will be Introduced In congress tomorrow by Speaker Andreade, and It will surely pass, authorlxing the government to suspend the newspapers, tlfe provisional government giving au thority for employing foreigners In the army and to expel from the Island all foreigners -who may ba considered obnoxious. U. 3. TROOP8~READY TO PROTECT PALMA 1 Washington, Sept. 18.—President Roosevelt’s course does not content plate intervention at this time. It positively stated here today. Should Intervention become necessary In order to preserve Cuba from anarchy, he will have the means at hand. Other vessels now In Santo Domingan waters or at Hampton Roads will probably fol low those already on the scene. The cruiser Denver Is now anchored In Havana harbor, almost within stone's throw of Palma's palace. In case the personal safety of President Palma should be threatened, he could be taken aboard the vessel within a few minutes' time. Commander Colwell, In charge of the Denver, has been In structed to place his vessel Immedlately at the disposal of President Palma, should the latter request It. He will, of course, also afford all possible protection to American citizens in the city of Havana. In an emer gency he will be permitted to land blue Jackets for this purpose without wait ing to communicate with Washington. Similar course will be pursued by the Marietta at Cienfugos, where she Is expected to arrive today, and by the Columbia and Dixie at Guantanamo. CITY OF CuEnFUEgSs SURROUNDED BY REBELS Havana, Sept. IS.—The city of Clen- fuegos Is surrounded by rebels. There are 10,000 revolutionists In the province of Santa Clara, In which Clenfuegos Is situated. The peaceful citizens of Clenfaegos have been warned to leave the city. _ An overpowering rising Is Imminent In the province of Santiago and the old province of Camaguay, consequent upon the disgust of the veterans at the government.

Regular schedules have been re turned over the Western and Atlantic railroad after the wreck at Ringgold Wednesday, the most disastrous In the history of the road, when seven train men were killed and one was Injured. The tracks were cleared Wednesday afternoon, and since that time all trains have been coining In on time. Even during the hours while the tracks were blocked passenger trains were not materially delayed. They were detoured over the tracks of the Southern from Chattanooga to Dal ton, and none came Into Atlanta as much as an hour late. The bodies of all those killed In the smash have been rant to their respec tive homes. Only one body, that of Engineer C. W. Klsher, was brought to Atlanta. The bodies of the others have been sent to their former homes, as follows: Engineer C H. Clements, to Tunnel Hill; Conductor T. T. White- head, to Kingston; Fireman J. W. Kln- nomon. to Tllden: Fireman W. M. Slaughter, to Etlerslle; Braketnan W. B Skelton, to Kennesaw; Apprentice Fireman Walter Smith, to Winchester, Brakeman Homer R. Robertson, who was pretty badly bruised up. but saved his life by Jumping from train No. 8, was not seriously Injured, and was able to go to his home at Kennesaw. Conductor W. D. Adams, of train No. 8, was fortunate enough' to be on the rear of his train and was the only one to escaiie Injury. Roth the engines were badly broken up In the collision and about live cars of each freight train were more or less badly damaged. The officials have not thus far been able to place exactly the responsibility, but It seems thnt the smp»h-up was caused by Engineer Clements, who had only been In charge of nn engine thir teen days, forgetting his orders and running pant Rlnggukl, which had been designated as the point for meeting train No. 13. It Is thought thnt Brake- man Robertson had been sent forward by Conductor Adams to remind him of his error when the smash cantc.

The proud parents may hold a caucus and divide the names among themselves. The mythological editor says the Greek ladles mentioned a-ers named Clio, Calliope, Polyhymnia, Euterpe. Tefpelchore, Erato. Melpo mene, Thalia, and Urania. But that stork must have been on a drunk. There's nn othei way to ac count for It. He has been furnishing an annual supply of babies long enough now to know better.

Mrs. Belle Reid, former stewardess of tha Soldiers' home, threw a bomb' shell Into the Investigation Thursday morning by declaring on the wltnees stand that when ahe took charge last October Inexpressible fllth and horri ble conditions existed In the store room and pantry. Mrs. Reid's testimony was the dra matic feature of the hearing to date. Her testimony regarding the conduct of affairs at tha Institution was given clearly and In excellent language. But when she came to the question of Im putations on her private life, she broke down and wept. For some moments her voice was so choked with emotion that she could not proceed. Her testimony Impressed the commit tee, and as she sat defending her char acter the feeling among the Investiga tors was tense. The testimony Thursday was largely In effort at rebuttal af the evidence, brought out by witnesses for the peti tioners. Some of It was favorable to that side, a great deal was not. An afternoon srsslon will be held Thursday In the senate chamber. Proceeding! of Third Dey. When the committee met at 8 o’clock Thursday morning James M.

As to Captain Thompson, his natural manner was harsh, though he was always kind to him. He had never heard Thompson furie. "He was particularly kind to you?' asked Colonel Anderson. "Yes, sir, because I was ont of the officers here,” was the reply. "Was Mrs. Reid kind?” "To most of us, but not all. I heard her speak sharply to Mr. Moseley." Mrs. Reid was again present and listened closely to all that was said. Mr. Milts was named Wednesday as one of the favorites of thb former stew ardess. Pressed for the names of grumblers, he stated thut Hugh Colquitt and Mr. Hushln were the only ones he could recall. He said only live or six gave much trouble. "They go over to the city and get two much Decatur street whisky." "These old men are llke 'chlldren and cry for Sugar,” he said. "Was It always given them?" asked Senator Bunn. "Yes, sir, when they asked for It.” History of Superintendents. Senator Illalook wanted to know the history of the superintendents, and It was given. J. L. Wilson, the first one. died In office; L. C. Slade, the second one, was discharged for drunkenness; Langdon Bowie, who was third, was dismissed for the same reason. Cap tain J. A. Thompson resigned. Warmed Only By Fire. G. W, Killian said that only one pair of winter pants wns given out by Cap tain Thompson, and that the men kept warm by staying close to the fire. He said Mrs. Reid made mistakes, and was sometimes too harsh to the men.* 'Captain Thompson was unnecessa rlly rough. When he got vexed with any of ua the whole house suffered."

Captain A. R. Churchill, of Savan nah, head of the Churchill line of steamships, wan before the commission much of the time. He manifested any thing but eympathy for the railroads and their domination of tho cotton rate situation, but was with them In the de sire that the thirty days' notice regula tion should not be enforced. He was closely questioned by the commission ers and the railroad men. Sam Brown, of Albany, Ga„ a cotton exporter, during the course of a state ment. was asksd about hts relations to the New York cotton exchange. "They're Just as small as possible," he replied. "Why Is that 7" "Because the business of the cotton exchange Is to skin everybody." "Skin who—reiser or buyer?" "Either. both—anybody." replied Brown: "the grower, the merchant, the manufacturer, the speculator. But then anybody that loses on the game de serves it." J. D. Moss, of Athens, Go., another export merchant, opposed the thlrty- duy notice requirement Judge Edward Baxter, representing roads In the cotton territory, declared all his roads were ready to give any notice required—30, 60 or 00 days. It was fraught out that about 12 per cent of the export cotton goes to sen by the xirta of Baltimore.
