Of the American secretaries with Pres
ident Palma at the palace Wednesday

Messrs. Taft and Bacon, President
Palma reviewed the various aspects
OF the electoral problem in Cuba.

ing that the government had limited

As TAFT PLANNED
Recent Sensational Events in Cuba
Believed to Have Been Fore
seen by the Secretary.
10 CALL new ELECTIONS.
Under Provisional Government
Backed By United States A1-
thOrity-However War Prep
aFations Go MerriIy ON.

Washington, Sept. 7.-While not
abating In any degree the preparation
for transporting troops to Cuba, in &C.
cordance with the wishes Of the presi-
dent, the ranking officials here in the
army and navy are still Of the opin-
ion that Secretary Taft will succeed
in effecting an arrangement which
will obviate the necessity for the
landing Of single American soldier
~ Cuban SOIL They believe that
events In Havana are shaping up d.
rectly In accordance with the plans
Of the secretary Of war, and that
while the situation apears to be des-
perate, the present aspect Is really
only one phase Of the programme
mapped out by Secretary Taft. It is
believed that his purpose was to clear
the field for complete reconstruction
In Cuba, but that this did not neces-
sarily involve Intervention in the
sense of armed occupation Of the is-
land by American troops. President
Palma's withdrawal, or at least that
Of the conservative advisers who sur.
rounded him, was, however, believed
to be essential to the working out Of |
this plan.
It is conjectured by the officials
here that the secretary's purpose is
to carry out direct instructions from
President Roosevelt, and give the Gu
bans another chance to govern their
own island. The only way this could
be worked out, they say, would be
for him to call together some ut the
most patriotic and judicious Of the
Cubans, without regard to party af-
filiations, and ask them to create
provisional government. They point
out that the insurgent generals would
be asked to give their allegiance to
this government, temporarily at least,
and the military forces Of the Palma
government would be expected to
support It; that the provisional gov
eminent would be pledged to call
new elections udner conditions that
would insure the control of the per.
government by a majority Of
The Cuban people, and that II they
lail again to maintain order and So
curity in the island, then Intervention
must ensue, resulting In probable an
nexation.
President Roosevelt is expected to
arrive in Washington next Monday
night and army officers are Of the
opinion that there win be no sensa-
.ional developments in Cuban affairs
Defore that time.
Col. Lttleton W. T. Waller, Of the
marine corps, who is to direct the
movement Of all marines In Cuba,
Vas ordered Wednesday to proceed at
nee from Norfolk to Havana.
Transports are the crying need Of
he army in case Of decision by the
resident to send troops into Cuba to
enforce the marines and bluejackets.
III the great steamship companies en-
aged in the coastwise trade are

artment of the movements Of their
essels and in case ships are needed

mate the vessels to be used at a :

SABBATH
SCHOOLS
Organizer Brown at the
Central Union
Church.

There was not a large attendance OF
the Sabbath school people at Central
Union church yesterday afternoon when
F. l.. Brown of the International Sun
dav School Union was introduce by
Rev. E. B. Turner, assistant pastor OF
the church. Mr. Brown IS on his way
to the Orient to organize the work
there and yielded to the request OF
the church people here to give them
a talk on his mission.
The exercises opened by the eongre-
CATION singing II Love to Tell the
Story after which Rev. Turner spoke
of the Sabbath School Association here
and added that Hawaii is now a part
of the International Society. The work
ers are long way from the home
of inspiration, the conventions, etc,
but is always in the mind of the parent
body. Mr.. Brown is delegate from
the society on his way to the Orient
He will stop in Korea for the purpose
of doing something with the Sabbath
school work there. His visit at this
time will be short.
Mr.. Brown, on being introduced said,
he was pleased to see so many OF
the representatives of the Chinese
schools present for it showed they have
an interest in the work. In Hawaii,
he understood there are 100 Sabbath
schools with a membership of 1000 and
though the sea might separate those
pupils from the International Society,
they are not forgotten. At the last
convention the letter head Of the Ha-
wall society was shown and commented
upon for the cosmopolitan membership.
The young men of today are to be the
men of the future and the people will
have to look up to them to carry on
the work.
''The international Society," said
Mr. Brown, sis training young men
and women as they never did before,
in missionary work. At a convention
held recently in Nashville, there were
1900 college students enrolled in
students work of the Y. M C. A.
They are members of the training
school mainly to gather information as
to the mission side of the work. -
america has warm place in her
heart for Hawaii continued the
speaker, land I want to carry back
with me the message that you are on
the firing line in the work and not
taking a backward STEP
He then read messages from a num-
Der of prominent people on the main
land including: Vice president Fair
banks, Hon. Leslie NJ Shaw, who
wrote that he would not say whether it
was correct to insist upon having the
Bible read in the schools but he knew
it was not done, J. w. Foster, ex-Secre-
tary of State; D. K. Morrill,, president
of the World s S. S. Union and a
number of others.
In future the society will devote
more attention to adult members of
the Sunday schools and with that in
view new secretary has been en-
ployed at a salary of $4,000 per year.
Mexico has been neglected up to two
years ago, but at a recent convention
there were persons who came dis

broke his heart to think he could not
do greater justice to the feast Of good

what he would like, replied, "I'd like

 Springfield Takes Double Header From WhaIers - Bridgeport Defeats
 Waterbury in One Game and Ties in i Another.
 New Haven and Norwich established two records in their game at the savin Rock grounds yesterday afternoon-in the time consumed in the session and in the number of hits made. It took two hours and twenty minutes to play eight and one-half innings and thirty two hits, with a total of thirty-nine bases, were secured by both clubs. No less than one hour was taken up in the first three periods Constant wrangling with Umpire Rorty and the heavy bat ting were the cause of the long-drawn- out battle.
 Corcoran and Halligan started i'll the box, put they were pumped goOu anu hard, the former lasting four innings and the latter three. They were sue ceeded by Peloquin and Yerkes, the for mer Eastern leagIer signed by Manager Danaher recently, The Norwich man fared little better, while Yerkes was a stumbling block until the last inning, when, with the score F to 6 in favor of the home team, the visitors threw q big scare into the crowd by batting out five earned runs just one short of tying the score, and the twelve hundred fans breathed a sigh of relief. Pitcher Tom Tuckey was sold to Norwich yesterday afternoon.

Vicchi had just returned from Italy, whither he went in the spring with his wife for rest following the effects of the San Francisco earth quake, He vainly appealed to the de partment of commerce and labor at Washington that the order of the spec ial board of inquiry which acted on his case be. rsscinded, on the ground that the marine hospital surgeons were wrong in their diagnosis. Secretary Metcalf to-day sustained the local au- thorities. Mrs vicchi was allowed to land and will remain here for the pres ent. Her husband will immediately seek treatment in Europe.

CONFUSION or DEMOCRATS.
Uncertainty Characterizes the Situation
 in Massachusetts,

Boston, Aug. 23.-Uncertainty char acterized the situation in which prom inent members of the democratic party found themselves to-day and District Attorney John B. Moran was the only man who continued to plan a definite campaign for delegates to the demo- cratic state convention which will be held in this city October 4. A number of party leaders known as the con servatices, who are admittedly oppos- ed to Moran's candidacy, have been brought to a standstill and they are unable to follow the district attorneys tactics for the reason that they are now without candidate for whom del- egated votes might be pledged. One of the strangest features of the case and the one which upset well laid plans for MT. Whitney's campaign, was that MT. Douglass seemed to be unaware that he was being pushed forward once mere for the governorship, and the at tempt to secure harmony in the party by the withdrawal of both Whitney and Moran was, according to Mir, Dougless, without authorization from him.
 In brief the situation may be sum- marized as follows:
 Mir whitney has withdrawn and will not again enter the campaign. He has gone to Canada, where he has business interests for an indefinite period.
 MT Douglass will not discuss the probability of his entrance into the breach.
 District Attorney Moran will remain an active candidate for the democratic nomination. He will not talk politics, however.
 Congressman John A. Sullivan of Boston Is expected in this city from Canada in a day or two. He may be selected as the leader of the fight against Moran
