Taft on Situation.
Mr. Taft mads the attuatlon pretty
clear to both sides. Ha said:
"The moderates determined to force
American Intervention, leaving affaire
In our hands. President Palma chose
to regard our suggestions as a demand
and he rejected them emphatically. To
day we acquainted Alfrsdo Zayas,-the
liberal leader, with the situation and he
undertook to Induce his associates to
consent to the original proposition of
the moderates, namely, that the Insur-
genta lay down their arms and submit
the entire controversy to the Ameri
can commission. But the rebel com
manders and man In tha field suspected
Insincerity upon th* part of the gov
ernment and declined.
"The negro Insurgents especially In
sisted on retaining their arms until
peace waa assured. Zayas' report Is
Indicative of future trouble with th*
lawless element of th* rebels. I feel
certain that a settlement of the trouble
possible only along the line* sug
gested by us."
No Poollshnsss Allowed.
He also made It plain that when
United State* troops were landed It
would mean buslnssa and no foolish
ness would bt tolerated. Whatever the
outcome of the negotiations which will
begin today, there Is fear that the rebel
republic Is In for jt period of brigand
age. with which the government will
ba powerless to deal. A goodly
proportion of tho rebel rank and file
can not be controlled by their leaders.
They will break Into bands and engage
In a career of outlawry. This Is etpe-
during every moment of hla absence
and If necessary can Issue orders with
(he some accuracy and facility that'he
could If he were In the whit* house.
As the president will leava for Wash
ington Monday m<
Secretary I-atta will i
visitors
will leave for Waah-
morning, Aulaiant
II make no more ap-
polotmanta for apeWl or official ’
until ha returns to the capital.
WILL MAYOR VETO
Says He Has Not Made Up
Mind as to Action on
Ordinance.
Will the mayor veto the ordinance
revoking all saloon licenses and'that
prohibiting tbe sale of spirltoua and
malt liquors In restaurants? This Is a
question being generally asked around
th* city.
Whan question' on the subject
Thursday morning 3tayor Woodward
said:
"Th# papers have not even com* up
up
my mind what I shall do. I will say
this, however, I am her* to do what
the people want done. J am not for th*
liquor men any more than for other
cltlaene, but I think th* measure is rad
ical.’
Several attorneys called on the may-
as to th*
or Thursday to make Inquiries
restaurant law, but nothing of a definite
nature was learned. It Is the general
opinion that the law will work a hard
ship on th* hotels where the European
C an Is In vogue, whereas some of tha
r
arger reatauranta arc backing the law.

work Imposed on th* c|iy license In

held these bands will form a ready
nucleus for the defeated candidates
who determine to go to the woods.
What Rebsls Declare.
“The situation,” said Pino Guerra,
th# rebel leader, ”1* nearer to us than
hitherto, and my opinion Is that Cuba
will never have another revolution. The
ending of this one will prove to the
world that the Cubans can preserve
and defend the liberties guaranteed to
them by their constitution and tha acta
of congress, and can preserve the popce
vouchsafed to them by the American
people. Thl* revolution le an evidence
iff our sincerity with th* Ameriacn
people, and the reeult should be con-
liberty 1 " by th * m to b * * ,r,um P h for

day of this month.
