eleven efforts, five successful and six
unsuccessful, have been made right in

capital Of the New Sou.,l, the center
OF trade, tradition and politics, the
heart Of our civilization, with a white
population nearly twice as large as
that of the negro.
1t has been reign of terror for our
Georgia women. There is not a white
woman in the region of Atlanta who
has had tranquil day or night within
this period. The white women have
been trembling prisoners in their
nomes,: and their husbands, sons and
brothers have been held in the neces-
sity Of guarding them INCREASINGLY.

VICTORY FOR THE LIeERALa

Appears Likely 70 Be tho Outcome Of
the Negotiations.
Havana, Sept. 25.-Victory for the
Liberals or revolutionary party seemed
almost certainty at the conolu-
sion OF long conference between a
committee of insurgents Of eight mem
bers and the American peace commits
sioners. The insurgent committee an
npunced there was practically no dii-
ferences remaining between them and
Secretaries Taft and Bacon and that
they would receive a draft AZ the
peace plans shortly. These prob
ably will be agreed to at meeting to
b. held in the Presidio. where the
prisoner members Of the committee
IRE confined.
Secretary Taft said he could give
NO details Of what TRANSFERRED at the
conference, for the reason that it was
now necessary to treat with the gov
eminent leaders and the publication
Of the peace proposals might conflict
With their prompt acceptance
Messrs. Taft and Bacon went to tho
palace during the evening and informed
President Palma of the outcome Of
tho negotiations with the Liberals.
Tho absence of a definite statement
from the commissioners makes It i'm
possible to say whether the plans
carry the designations of tho present
administration and tho congressman
elected last year or not.
Palma May Remain.
There is strong impression that
President Palma will remain and re-
organize the cabinet but that new cleo
lions will be held for half the sena-
tors and representatives, in other
words, those who were elected last
year and possibly also for provincial
officers.
Mr.. Taft evinced great pleasure at
the progress made thus far and II is
evident that he regards the remainder
Of the negotiations as q matter of
working out the details Of the peace
agreement. This bears out the tn
sistent rumor in circulation here that
the government abandoned much Of
its opposition to receiving the Liberal
leaders and it was apparent the peace
commissioners felt that while there
was no reason for rebellion In Cuba,
there was real foundation for Liberal
complaint against the election meth
DDS of the administration party.
The immediate cessation of hostili.
ties means everything. This winters
tobacco crop and the seed beds must
be planted within fortnight in order
to insure crop, but there is still SUI
f1cient time for this If the negotiations
end as anticipated.
Should the instruction continue
few planters would attempt to plant
crops.
