PEACE THROUGH COMPROMISE.
Thought to Be the Only Way of Set
tlinu Cuban Revolt.

Havana, Sept. 4.-Peace through po-
litical compromises is the sole topic
of conversation in all the best inform
ed circles, where it is recognized as
the only way of bringing about set
tlement of the internal troubles.
Therefore there Is a general disposl-
tion not to agree with the stand taken
by President Palma, that the govern.
ment should not treat with the insurg-
ents upon the basis of arranging
compromise, and the president Is un-
derstoood to have already modified his
attitude to the extent that he has no
objection to private negotiations on the
subject. 1t is believed that an attempt
to reach peace through some compro-
mise will now be made
Several bodies of insurgents have
been seen with increasing frequency
between Pinar del Rio and Consola-
cion del Sur, in the province of Pinar

TRUST coMPANY'S AFFAIRS.
Justice to Be Melted Out to Those In
Coluslon With the Suicide
President.

Philadelphia, Sept 3.-Justice Is to
be meted out to the men responsible,
with Frank X. Nipple, the suicide pres.
ident of the Real Estate Trust com.
pany, for the collapse of that institu,
tion. Announcement was made that
the evidence so far unearthed by Re-
ceiver Earle has been placed in the
hands of District Attorney Bell, who ia
expected to cause the arrest of the
wreckers.
Receiver Earle maintains that 1t was
impossible for President Nipple to so
entangle the company's affairs without
the knowledge of others connected
with the institution. Acting ON this
impression he has been persistent in
his efforts to discover evidence Of col
luslon.
Directors. officials and clerks Of the
trust company were examined duling
the day and at night the receiver con-
terred with District Attorney Bell.
Among the witnesses we're four of
the directors who are said to have
heard of Nipples heavy loans to Adolf
Segal, the promoter, at least several
weeks ago. Another witness was Will
lam F. Worth, the treasurer, who is
supposed to approve all loans made by
the Trust company. Theodore Preus-
SER the company's real estate officer,
who Is supposed to have approved the
mortgages on property offered by Sc
gal as security for his loans, also was
examined.
During the day Receiver Earle said:
"The deeper | go into this thing the
worse 1t looks. The trust funds which
| heretofore thought were intact have
been tampered with and $4,000 taken.
This sum is distributed among 500, 0,000,-
900 the bank had In trust and the loss
will not be heavy on any one."
Mr. Nipples desk was opened and in
1t was found statement by H.. Hill,
the company's auditor. which Mr..
Earle says is materially different from
the statement Mr.. Hill gave him.

situation Darker In cuba.

The war situation in Cuba is far
darker today than at any previous
time since the insurrection broke out.
News of an uprising in Santiago prov
nce is causing the gravest concern.
When Mr.. Sleeper, the American
charge d'affaires here, was told the
contents of the Santiago dispatch he
endeavored to verify it through the
state department, but was told it was
absolutely untrue. Subsequently the
dispatch was verified from private
sources and from newspaper sources.
1t is the opinion here that the worst
calamity of all to the Palma govern
ment would be an insurrection in
Eastern Cuba.
Two reliable eye witnesses say that
Cardenas, which hitherto has been
