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.
