Havana, Oct. 4-The alacrity with
which the rebels are laying down their
arms to the commission appointed to
superintend that important phase OF
the termination Of the revolution is
the greatest surprise the provisional
has yet encountered in the smoothly
working program. This operation is
now well under way in the vicinity OF
Havana, 700 OF Guerra's men with
their horses having already been en-
trained for Pinar del Rio, while one
brigade marched to Guanajay today
without sign Of disorder.
Hundreds of persons from Havana
went out to Santiago de las Vegas and
Rincon today to view the disarma-
ment. They were disappointed at not
seeing the rebels actually surrender
their guns, but nevertheless they wit
messed an interesting sight. AS con-
cession to the men General Funston
and Major Ladd permitted them to
take their arms to Pinar del Rio, where
most of the men joined the insurgent
army. The rifles, however, were first
counted by officers of marines under
the direction of Major Ladd and the
men will be required to surrender
them before leaving the train at Pinar
del Rio
1t is reported that some OF Del Cas-
tillo's followers were reluctant to dis
arm but all the brigade commanders
have informed Major Ladd that all
their men will disarm and disband
when ordered to do so by General Del
Castillo. Wednesday afternoon Gen
eral Castillo gave Major Ladd an or
der directed to all his subordinate com
manders and telling them to comply
with every request made by the Amer
ican officers. Major Ladd will work to-
night to carry out the disbanding ar
Tangements.
According to the testimony OF an
American named Harvey, former
Roosevelt Rough rider, who has been
with the insurgents, the amount OF
actual fighting during this revolution
was really very small Harvey says
that most of the fighting he had seen
was between game cocks. About 10
per cent of Guerra's men carried
fighting cocks tied to their saddles.

LEAGUE FORMED AT HAVANA.
Promoting of Stable Government Is
Given as Object.

Promoting of Stable Government Is
Given as Object.
Havana, Oct. 9.-The preliminaries
of an organization to be called the
Good Government league of Cuba were
begun this afternoon at meeting OF
Americans, Cubans and others, at
which resolutions were passed to the
effect that the purpose OF the associa-
ion should be the promoting OF all
legitimate means, the establishment OF
a permanent, stable and lawful govern
ment, competent to administer justice,
insure democratic tranquility, promote
the general welfare ano insure the
blessings of liberty to all the inhabi-
tants OF the island y
1t was declared that the league in
tended to adopt whatever means to this
end were deemed wisect by majority
OF the membership, which is intended
to be representatives Of all nationalities
and sections, and not to be committed
to any line OF action until 1T is decided
what is most conductive to the objects
named.
While there was no expression to
that effect, the movement generally ls
regarded as pointing eventually toward
some more definite degree of American
control or oversight in Cuban affairs
than is vouchsafed by the Platt amend

Bjble"Not the Word of God.

Detroit, Oct 2.-Bishop Charles D.
Williams, of the Episcopal diocese OF
Michigan, in an address to Y. M. c. A.
members here on "The Bible and the
Word of God" declared that the Bible
was not the word of God and that the
teachings to the contrary are the most
prolific sources Of unbelief the church
has to contend with. The Bishop said:
Nowhere does the Bible declare
itself the word of God. Yet we are
told we must take it in its entirety. 1t
is venerable book and visitors are
requested not to touch it, as it is the
direct word of God, there is no other
Take the young man just out OF
college. He reads Genesis and finds
impossible geology, astronomy ana
ethnology. His teacher, when ques
toned says: Manipulate it until 1t fits
your Sciences If too honest to handle
the word Of God craftily, the young
man gives up the Bible. He refuses
to stultify his reason.
The Bible needs no defense; all II
needs is a square deal. There are
those who read it devoutly and dill
gently, but never say the Bible is the
word of God. l say the Bible and the
word of God. To those who accept the
entire book as the literal word of God
point out that it is nowhere so
stated. Christ tore asunder the Old
Testament precepts, the law of Moses,
and furnished now ones Where the
Old Testament directed men to hate
their enemies the teachings Of Christ
were to love your enemies.

,Japanese-to Control Railroad.

London, Oct. 9. - Dispatches from
Toxic declare that the bonds of the
South Manchurian railroad have been
oversubscribed many times, but that
there we're no Chinese applications.
Explaining this fact, the Pekin cor
respondent OF the Times says that, sl-
though China was invited to partici-
pate, che did not do 60 because there
we're no funds and none could be had
without a foreign loan. The rail
road, therefore, the correspondent says,
although nominally Chino Japanese,
will be exclusively Japanese.
