Havana. Cuba, Sept. 14.—Kor the aake of peace and to prevent auch
American Intervention na may mean the permanent occupation of the la-
land, President Palma today called n special meeting of hie cabinet and
announced hie Intention of resigning hla office. Secretary Montalvo urged
I’alma to reconsider Ilia determination, but while hla realgnatlon la held up
for a few hours, he I* said to be determined and may retire at any mo
ment.
It la underatood tlint the president la acting under the influence of hla
family. Hla wife la h daughter "OT PnaTilenl Gue'radlcln, of Honduras, who
waa murdered by revolutlonlats. She has been begging Mr. Palma ever
since the revolution atnrted. to tender hla resignation.
President Palma cried like a child when he nan' the Americana land.
He said his work of forty years for the Independence of Cuba had been
destroyed by the revolution. It Is well known among Cubane that he called
for American help. 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. Capote being no less unpopular with the
liberals than falma.
The people expect Commander Colwell, of the Denver, to pacify the
Island, acting in the capacity of a referee. The commander says he can
nothing without instructlona. The two rebel commissioners from Sen-

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. . ..
It seems likely that the subsequent withdrawal of the majority of the
mnrtne* that had been put ashore waa ordered by the state department ar-
t*r President Roosevelt had been communicated with, which Indicate* the
extreme caution on the part of the president.

Because of the feet that the Baptist
tabernacle remains a member of the
Stone Mountain Baptist Association,
ihe Calvary church, located near In
man Park. In east Atlanta, withdrew
from that organised body In the ses
sion at Covington Thursday. 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.
