Havana, Sept As the days and weeks pass with no appreciable dimi- mutton of the revolution. apprehen- sion increases. The most conserva- tive testimony from the country dis tricts of the province of Pinar Del Rio and Havana and Santa Clara is to the effect that two-thirds of the peo- pie in the country and small towns of these three provinces are insur- gents in sentiment if not in fact. It is generally believed the government ultimately will subdue the insurrec- tion, but in the meanwhile the crops cannot be developed, and it is grave question whether the rebellious spirit even then can be quelled to the ex- tent of restoring the country to a nor mai self-gOvernment status.
 A realization of this is the cause of renewal of the efforts for peace. Gen. eral Mario MenocaI. whom the people trust as one capable of bringing the warning factions together if such a thing is possible, came to Havana to- day and held two conferences with President Palma. General Menocal after the conference absolutely refused to make any statement.

 forts to institute negotiations with the insurgent leaders, and a few mer- chants and planters held a conference tonight to discuss the proposal to make an attempt to open negotiations with the insurgents. and the two gen erals named intend tomorrow to call upon the leaders of the liberal and moderate parties individually and see what il is possible to do. President Palma has no objection to these ef- forts. but makes no promises or sug- gestiOns on behalf of the government.
 The managers of the insurrection meanwhile have permitted the publi- cation of a document purporting to have been found in an abandoned rebel camp, but which, it is reliably stated, was first issued in Havana and the original of which the Associ- ated Press has reason to believe is in q deposit vault in the United States. signed by prominent conspiratOrs which document gives the full pro gram of the revolutionists' policy. It is in the form of an agreement and is dated Havana, July 26.
 The agreement states that senators elected in April, 1902, and representa- tives elected in 1904 shall then form q congress, elect an interim president and vice president who shall call cleo tions for those offices and other of nces declared vacant
 Mayors and concilmen who have been arbitrarily reposed by the execu- tive shall return to their offices
 The document pledges the directors of the movement to respect life and property, re-establish order and not to cease their labors until they shah have restored constitutional rights to the country.
 In a postscript the document says:
 All obligations incurred by the undersigned with those assisting in the re-vindicating movement. will be

RAID OF RANGERS
 CAPTURED OUTLAWS
Believed to Have Been Planning
 Raid Into Mexico.

Bisbee, Ariz.. Sept. 4.-Rangers and immigration officers stationed at Douglas, under the leadership of Cap tain Rynning, made a raid tonight on a Mexican house on this side of the international line and seized d num- Der of pistols, two red flags. a quan- tity of dynamite, together with fuse and caps. At the same time a search was being made of the house officers in other parts Of the city were arrest ing suspicious Mexican characters who have been here for the past few days. Twelve arrests were made and the Mexicans placed in jail. The house. it Is believed. was the rendezvous of a band of Mexican revOlutionists who have been making headquarters at Douglas for the past month planning raid into Mexican territory.
 The leader of the band IS Abram SalcidO. The MeXicans arrested are being held on the charge of violation of the neutrality law and will have an examination before a board of inquiry tomorrow.
 Last night there vas considerable excitement in Douglas on account of rumors that an armed body of Mexi- cans was planning q raid of the Cop per Queen store for the purpose of securing guns and ammunition. The American population armed them selves but the attempt was not made.

 Chief justice. Chas Nj. Start.
 Not only was Governor Johnson re- nominated unanimously but he was also spoken of as the logical running mate for Wm. Jennings Bryan on the national ticket in 1908.
 Continued applause greeted Bryan's name, although one or two dissenting voices were heard on the stage. The platform adopted protests against government by injunction" and de- mands the passage of laws by congress regulating issuance of injunctions; urges state and national legislation establishing an eight-hoUr working day and favors election of United States senators by direct vote. The platform demands that Minnesota con- gressmen labor for the revision of the Dingley tariff and that trust-made articles be placed on the free list.
 A warm welcome and endorsement is given w. J. Bryan, the platform viewing with satisfaction the logical results of his leadership in the prob able election of w. J. Bryan to the presidency of the United States"
