Aided By Rebel Leaders.

1t is believed that all the revolu-
tionists in the vicinity of Havana will
have been peacefully dispersed in
three days Gems. Guerra and Del
Castillo are actively cooperating to
this end Together with Guzman, the
commander-in-chief of the rebels in
Santa Clara province, they called at
the American legation Tuesday and
renewed their promises of assistance.
They also thanked Gov. Taft for his
courtesies, and discussed the project
ed amnesty proclamation. Gov. Taft
told his visitors that he would take up
this subject later, not having time
now to give it the necessary atten.
-tion, and said that when the matter
did come up he would investigate per.
sonally all cases which might require
his attention in order that justice be
done.
The fact that Gen. Guzman is act
ing in sincere cooperation is believed
to preclude trouble of any conse-
quence in the work of disarming the
rebels In Santa Clara province, and
no fears of disorders in other sec
tons are entertained.
Palma Departs from Havana.
While the departure Tuesday from
Havana of former President Palma
was the most important event Of the
"a hours, the former president left the
capital so quietly that the public did
not realize he had gone until the
news was given in the afternoon pa
pers. Only his cabinet ministers and
a few intimate friends accompanied
the former president and his family
to the railroad station. Some of
these friends went with the family to
Matanzas, and did not return to Ha-
vana until they had seen the Palma
family safe in the home of other
friends in that city.
On the way from Havana to Matan-
zas Senior Palma's special train
stopped at two stations where the
government volunteer forces were
preparing to disarm and disband.
When Col. Rego, in command Of the
battalion at Campo Florido informed
Senior Palma what he was doing the
ex-president expressed his gratifica-
ton and said that disarmament was
in accordance with patriotic duty.
At Jaruco, Col Lima told Senior
Palma he had ordered his force to be
mustered out, and that this would be
his last act as an officer. Continuing,
the colonel declared that the people of
Matanzas were particularly pleased
that the former president was coming
to their peaceful city to enjoy that
rest and tranquility he so well de-
served. He said also that the Cuban
people were sure TO reflect Palma to
the presidency.

Havana, Oct. 3.-The attitude of the

While no disorder is anticipated
when the reyolutionists reach their
homes, the provisional government
and the military authorities consider
the actual military occupation Of the
Pinar del Rio region quite as essen
tial as the occupation of other por-

to have an American force there to
insure the preservation of order.
Troops in Plnar Del Rio.
This battalion OF marines, which
will be the first to occupy Pinar del
Rio, therefore was sent forward by
special train. The orders came from
Gov. Taft at six o'clock, and half an
hour later the battalion had boarded
a train at Buena Vista, station
near Camp Columbia. The cars were
switched from the Marianao to the
Western railroad and thence depart

One thousand of Guerra's followers

however, it necessary for each company to recruit
to about three times its former strength In fear of
not being able to present themselves with sufficient
number of men who could pass the required examina
ton, the highways and byways were searched, and
every available man was accepted, without special
regard to his standing in the community. In con-
sequence the morale of the troops much lowered
and the esprte de corps in the several organizations
which formerly existed, lacking. Notwith-
standing this, to their credit be it said, the First

is no question that they would have acquitted them
selves in manner at least above reproach. But in
stead of going to the front with the first expedition,
as had reasonably been expected, month after month

with sickness and disease stalking through their
company streets, due to the unsantary location Of
their camps, for which those higher in authority
were responsible. During this time they were
buoyed up, however, by rumors and occasional prep.

STATEMENT BY THE OWNERS.
Furuseth Is Again Accused of Breaking
Faith With Them.

The executive committee of the
Steamship Association yesterday after
noon gave out the following statement
in answer to certain statements made
by Secretary Andrew Furuseth of the
Sailors Union:
Mr.. Furuseth, in attempting to ex-
plain why he sent the report East that
almost everybody is out with big
knife cutting for himself; it seems
there will be a general effort TO cut
wages instead of keeping them up, and
the best thing would be for all that can
get away to do So. says that he did SO
because he was informed that some of
the merchants were reducing the wages
of their clerks and statesmen and that
the Spring Valley Water ompany had
reduced the wages of their collectors.
June 3, 1t must have been written some
time in May. He knew at that time
that more than 50 per cent of the
merchants in San Francisco were not
had been destroyed by the fire. He
must have known that three-fourths of
the collecting business of the Spring
Valley had been destroyed by the fire.
He also knew that every laborer and
artisan employed by that company was
carpenter, brick mason, hod carrier
and otner mechanic in thiS>city was re-
cefving the same wages as before the
fire. His attempt to misrepresent the
actions of the merchants of this city
will not be accepted by the public as
circulated. TO the injury of San Fran
cisco.

In regard to the agreement that he
had with Mr.. Hanify. that vessels load
