Proposal to Call on Europe.

Several prominent men said that
by using dynamite they could bring
about intervention by Germany. or per-
haps by Great Britain, while others
declared rashly that they knew that
foreign diSplomats here would favor
such course. and it was argued that
the destruction of the German bank
property would soon result in European
Intervention. Certain properties be-
longing to citizens Of the United States
were specifically mentioned as con-
venient for such attacks. Several
speakers even said that they would
prefer Germany or Great Britain in
Cuba to the United States.

Havana, Sept PA meeting Of
the Moderate national assembly was
hastily called to discuss the pressing
question whether some way could not
yet be devised to settle the present
difficulty without the threatened
United states intervention. The meet
ing was held ut the residence of Senior
Dolz, president of the senate. More
than sixty persons We're present They
included Vice President Mendez
Capote, nearly all the members of the
cabinet, and almost all the leading
senators and representatives Many
officers Of the rural guard were pres
ent in uniform.

Even Talked of Dynamite.

It was dt red that the government
forces should fight to the death rather
than submit to the terms insisted upon
by the rebels and one speaker depicted
the horrors of negro domination which
would result, he said. from the threat
ened Liberal ascendancy brought about
with the alleged assistance of the
United States. Some of the most radi
cal present asserted that the govern
ment had plenty of dynamite in Ha
vana which would be used to precipi-
tate those international complications
that accrue from the destruction of
foreign property.

started with Letting or Steam.

No sooner had the meeting assem'
bled than the pent-up indignation
against the United States peace COM
missioncrs broke forth. Several men
began in loud voices and at the same
time to condemn Secretary of War
Taft and Acting Secretary of State
Bacon, who were declared to have
shown partially in backing the rebels
and discrimination against the Mod
crate side of the controversy. The
speakers shouted denunciations against
the United States government and hot
~ insisted that the Moderate party
should appeal to the powers of the
world for protection against the usur-
patton Of the sovereignty of Cuba by
the United States.
