Conditions According to Taft
and Bacon, are Worse
Than First Reported.
INTERVENTION PROBABLE
FOUR UNITED STATES BATTLE
SHIPS HAVE ARRIVED AT HA-
vANA - DAILY CONFERENCES
ARE BEING HELD.


attempts of the American mediators
to settle the Cuban quarrel appears
to be approaching. The indications
now seem to be that Secretary Taft
will not be able to settle the difficulty
without definite and real American in
tervention. Secretary Taft is uncom-
municative, but it is known he has
been in frequent communication with
President Roosevelt and reported con-
ditions here to be far worse than he
had supposed.
Havana, Sept. 81 = The United
States battleships Louisiana and Vir-
ginia and the cruisers Cleveland and
Tacoma have arrived here.
The four warships entered the har-
Dor at o'clock, the Louisiana leading
and saluting. The new arrivals, to-
gether with the cruisers Denver and
Des Moines, now occupy the six best
anchorages and give an unwonted
and strikingly warlike appearance to
the harbor, where it is rare to see
more than two warships at a time.
Captain Albert r. Couden of the
Louisiana said the trip of the two bat
tleships from Newport had been I'M
eventful. The cyclone was not encoun-
tered. The Cleveland and Tacoma
also had an uneventful trip.
Another day of conferences with the
factional leaders in the Cuban conflict
has not enabled Secretary of War
Taft and Assistant Secretary of State
Bacon to announce any plan for COM
promising the difficulty. So strenu-
Gus are the appeals of both the Lib
eral and Moderate party leaders that
the situation becomes increasingly
complicated as the negotiations pro-
coed. However. Secretary Taft said
that he believed when they are
brought face 10 face with the danger
of losing independence forever. all pa
triotic Cubans will be willing to make
concessions. The only counsel to the
political leaders given by Mr.. Taft
was on the subject of not engaging in
further agitation that might make in
PREVENTION by the United States neces-
sary. This advice he offers freely to
all whom he gives audience, regard
less of party.
Mr.. Taft has made 1t clear that the
United States is not seeking to exer-
else control over the island or any of
its affairs. but TO those whom he has
met in conference Mr.. Taft has said
that now is the time TO decide wheth-
or they would have Cuba live as ma
:ion. Whether the men they have
met in Havana represent the senti-
ment of the entire island is question
that Is troubling the American media
tors. Mr.. Taft realizes that unless the
national spirit is aroused the CONNER
cial interests will have no confidence
in any settlement that may be made

sehting the spirit os the anti-cleri-
Gals They make no secret of their
/ hatred of Christianity. They avow
i. in the press and in the Chambers.
Let me give you = few examples If
the language of these mon, and you
cal judge if the 'mcs'c1n rcYl lie
have ever heard anything similar
fl ON their own leaders or if any
American statesman would dare TO
rrte1 such statements. In the coil SC
OF long speech III the Chamber Of
Deputies the we'll known Socialist
lesCer Jaures said: IF God Himself
appeared before the mulsituins in
palpdble form the first duty of man
would be to refuse Hin obedience
and to consider Him not as a master
to whom men should submit, but as
an equal with whom men may argue
IN. Vivian, the new Minister of
Labor, speaking also in the Chamber
of Deputies, gave utterance to these
sentiments: All of us together, first
by our forefathers, then by our
fathers, now by ourselves, have been
attached to the work of anti-cleri-
calism and irreligion. We have
snatched the human conscience from
belief in a future life. *Do you
think the work is ut an end? No,
it is beginning
"The Chamber decreed that the
discourse from which this extract is
takens should be placarded in every
town and village of France. In the
same strain the present Minister OF
Public Worship and the most strenu'
Gus advocate of the law of sepdra-
ton, NJ. BRAND, said in al address
to school teachers: The time has
come to root up from the minds of
French children the ancient faith
which has served its purpose and re-
place it with the light of free
thought. 1t is time to get rid of the
Christian idea. We have hunted
Jesus Christ out of the army, the
navy, the schools, the hospitals. in
sane and orphan asylums and law
courts. and now we must hunt Him
out of the State altogether

Pflanz, probably the most popular
man in the county now holding Of
fee.
Mr.. Pfanz has been Sheriff. In
the city administration he has been
Alderman. But as Jailer he has done
more for the public service than any
any man who has held position. 1t
has been said that Mr.. Pflanz would
make a good Mayor. There is no
doubt that he would, but John r.
Pflanz now aspires to be the best
Jailer Jefferson county ever had and
he is making record in this direc-
ton. The present condition of the
Jefferson county Jail attests his great
ability. If ne aspires to additional
and further honors in Louisville and
jefferson county no man now known
in politics will have more followers.
