The situation today was considerably

Bacon might decide. upon condition that
tEs rebels surrender their arms and legal

such decision whatever Ii might be While
these proposals are still unsatisfactory to
and ridiculed by the liberals as weak and
not made in good faith, they have never

Messrs Taft and Bacon for further con-

Settle the Trouble.

Havana. Sept. 22-Everythfng hangs to-
night upon conference that is now pro-
ceeding at United States Minister Nor
gans home between Secretary of War
Taft and Assistant Secretary of State Ba-
con and the representatives of the liberal
leaders. the prisoners under arrest for al
legged conspiracy and the rebel field COM
manders- Since the arrangements for this
important meeting were completed, Sec
rotary Taft had believed that there was
fair reason for expecting an outcome 20
the negotiations which would lead 10 n
settlement without the necessity Of Amer
lean Intervention. This expectation was
rudely shattered this afternoon when the
unwelcome news reached the mediatOrs
that the government had refused to re-
lease the prisoners in order that they
might attend the conference tonight, and
that the prisoners themselves had refused
10 accept these conditions, declining alb
sOlutely to be the recipients of favors
from the present government.
Used Diplomacy.
Secretary Taft took up the matter diplo-
matically. with the result that Consul
General Steinhart and Captain Mccoy,
military aide to President Roosevelt,
drove I'm an automobile to the Preside
here. where they saw Secretary Montalvo
and got his consent for the release OF Jose
Miguel Gomez and four others of the lead
ing alleged conspirators. The latter re-
turned with them to Minister Morgan's
house arriving there at 7:30 o'clock this
evening
Meanwhile Machado and Ferrara, the
rebel leaders in Santa Clara province. had
taken an automobile here and gone direct

turning with General del Castillo and
Pho Guerra. respectively the leaders of
the revolt in the provinces of Havana and
Pinar del Rio, who were on horseback.
Arriving at Marianne they went to the
