President Still Hopeful.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
OYSTER BAY. N. Y, September 26-It
is evident that all hope of settling the Gu
ban situation without armed Intervention
has not been abandoned by the President
In spite of the fact that the statement has
been given out at the executive offices that
troops are all ready to make an Immediate
movement on Cuba. and that besides put
ting the transport Sumner into commission.
arrangements are being made to charter
other vessels. Secretary Latta said this
morning that there was no immediate pros
pect Of the President issuing a proclama-
ton of intervention. Undoubtedly orders
were sent to the troops to hold themselves
in readiness as soon as the failure of Taft's
mission became probability, but Secretary
Latta said that no further orders had been
given for the troops to be ready to invade
Cuba at once.
Those who are close in touch with the
situation believe that even the landing of
more troops In Cuba and the sending of
more ships there will not necessarily mean
that the United States has decided to step
in between the belligerent forces in Cuba.
when every possible chance of settlement
by Taft has vanished The executive Of
flee here will not admit that all chance Of
Taft's success has vanished. The reports
from the Secretary. 1t Is admitted. are far
from optimistic, but they are not, according
to Secretary Latta, as pessimistic as the
press reports are.
Still a Chance.
There is still a chance, though It is a
very slight one. that the situation may
work out without the necessity Of actual
armed Intervention. In case 1t is neces-
sary for the United States to intervene, it
is probable that the presidential proclama-
ton of Intervention will not come until the
troops and ships which have been provided
for have reached Cuba.
While nothing definite will be done in
the matter until all hope of settlement UNI
der the present plan has to be abandoned,
everything Is to be ready for movement
on the island IL II should become neces-
sary, There are enough troops who can
be ready at a moments notice to more
than fill the available transports. and ne
gotiations have been commenced with Bal
timore firms and those in other cities to
provide more transports.
Secretary Taft is in constant communica-
