hundred and twenty armed sailors
from the American cruiser Denver
landed and camped in front of Presi-
dent Palma's palace in old La
Fuerza Castle, facing the Plaza de
Armas.
Commander Colwell had received
reports that Havana was in immi-
nent danger of attack by rebels, who
had planned to make President
Palma a prisoner, and that stimuli
taneously with the attack an armed
uprising in Havana was contem-
plated.
Mr. Palma said he thought 1t
would be prudent for Colwell to land
a force of marines at some strategic
point.
Everything was done so quietly
and quickly that it caused great sur
prise in the city.
Commander Colwell was APP
preached by an emissary of General
Castillo, one of the insurgent lead
ers, offering to surrender to him If
guaranteed a fair trial.
All troops that can possibly be
spared from duty in other parts OF
the province are being ordered here.
General Pine Guerra is reported
to be moving east along the south
ern edge of the Pinar del Rio Noun
tains. Other rebel bands, which con-
stantly receive additions as they
march, are committing depredations
along the railroad.

Havana, Cuba, Sept 19.-An eX-
raordinary Gazette issued late Sun
day afternoon contains this decree,
which was signed by President Pal
ma.
"All campaign operations are sus-
pended, and in consequence the Gov
eminent forces will act only on the
defensive throughout the republic.
The Secretary of the Interior will is
sue all the necessary orders for the
execution of this decree"
Members of the Government say
they are following the advice con-
tanned in President Roosevelt's let
ter that they have no objection to
the friendly assistance of the United
States if it becomes necessary, but
they believe they can settle the trou-
bic between the Government and the
revolutionists without Intervention.
At least, they say, they are making
an attempt and with fair prospect Of
success.
The decree caused great surprise,
as for the last two days the Govern
ment officials have been strongly
against negotiating with the rebels.

Two important Clues.

What ought to prove two very i'm
portant clues were found. One is the
address on the card, 518 Douglas
street, where it is evident, the man
has been and was very probably
known.
Another is white felt hat which
was picked up by officer Nichols on
the freight shsd platform, at a paint
about 100 feet from where the body
was showed off.
The hat was not that OF the mur-
dered man. II was old and worn. Care

reveal any hair in the hat and strong

In every way such as could not har-
monize with the clothing the dead man
wore.
A reasonable conclusion is that the
hat belonged to ono Of the n1urderers
who took the dead. mans hat for him

ran.

The search of the body revealed very
little and nothing at all to indicate
who the man was, although some clues
were found which may prove import
ant There was nothing in the vest or
coat pockets. In the rear trou;er
pockets were found a white handker-
ch af with light border. white collar
with white tie which had evidently
been removed but a short time before;
a package containing a new white tie

One of the cards bore the address

which is negro dive and this may
prove an important clue.
Another important circumstance is
that Night Agent Henderson heard
two men running along the freight

1t is reasonable to assume that these
were the murdere"s and that this was
