tber. - the allered conspirators

others of the alleged conspirators in
prison and found them willing to CO.
operate in securing peace. The basis
of peace was not discussed In any de-
tail, but Secretary Montalvo returned
to the palace and urged President Pal
ma to consider the matter.
The President called a conference for
this afternoon which was attended by
the ministers, vice-President Mendez
Capote. General Freyre Andrade and
Senator Dolz. The result Of this con-
ference was the issuance of the decree
suspending Government campaign OPP
erations.
After the decree was issued gov
eminent emissaries were dispatched
in automobiles to confer with ths re
volutionists. General Menocal. ac-
eompanied by Congressman Goblin and
Garcia and Avieta. the youngest son
of Calixto Garcia. drove In the direc-
tion where Alfredo Zayas was encamp-
ed with Castillos forces, not far from
Santiago de Las Vegas. and others
went to Guanatay. which place this
afternoon was occupied by big band
of revolutionists under Congressman
Campos Marqueti
The latter had Mayor Gales and 200
volunteers defending the town cooped
up in a carcel and surrounded by
swarm of insurgents. The mayor up
to this afternoon had defied Marqueti
and was still holding out when the
peace emissaries arrived Meanwhile
Marqueti was threatening to blow .up
the carcel with dynamite.
General Andrade. when asked about
the terms discussed at the conference
with the revolutionists. said that the
matter had not gotten far along to dis
cuss actual peace terms. The confer
ence had only touched them informal
ly. he declared, but one thing was GER
tain, that the government would
never agree to annu1 constitutional
elections and that the contention must
be eliminated from the claims of the
revolutionists. He thought that there
is reason TO believe, although this was
not certain, that the government and
the hostiles would get together on
terms. Those who had ben sent to
confer with the revolutionists carried
passes for themselve sand as many OF
the revolutionists as they chose to
bring into the city.
The General said that the Govern
ment appreciated the friendly efforts
of the United States and would avail
itself of them IL Its own efforts were
unsuccessful. but that naturally 1t pre-
ferreds to settle the trouble without
intervention.
simultaneously with the issuance OF
the decree declaring cessation of hos
tilities, the special Judge in charge OF
the cases against the alleged conspir-
ators in prison and prisoners recently
captured, liberated thirty of the latter
against whom Indictments had been
issued.
Meanwhile a warrant was issued for

If there is help for you anywhere on the earth it is in the house of the Lord, and there is help for you here beyond all question. Do you think you could do better alone? 1 doubt that, but if I was sure of it I would still say: "Who are you that you should do this, when by your presence and hand and heart you can help so many who cannot go alone and help Us also to help them? Is God not to be worshiped in the woods and sweet country lanes and in the hidden hooks of the hills and on the mounts, that are all Mounts of Transfiguration to the detout heart" Surely. surely But will say that the most holy place is that which has been made holy through the mighty cry of human hearts in their sore trouble, where men and women have found peace through believing; where the perpetual appeal is made for the souls highest well fare and where the light is kept shining high and clear toward the eeverlasting life; where the Christ Is forever incarnate in the Christian heart and life; where we can find the angels in human guise, and under it all and through it all wor
