TAFT'S TRIP

-, 10
Secres " of War Can't
Inspect Posts
HE WAS COMING WEST
THE SPECIAL MISSION TO CUBA
KNOCKS OUT HIS OTHER AR
RANoEMENT TO INSPECT LEAD
ING WESTERN FORTS WITH
GENERAL BELL.

Washington, Sept. 17.-One result Of
Secretary Taft's mission to Havana is
the indefinite postponement of the trip
Of Inspection, which he intended to
make with General Bell, chief of staff.
They were to have left Washington
about the end of the present month
for Chickamauga and then go west-
ward to Forts Sheridan, Fort Smelling
and Fort Riley.
The trip was planned to afford the
secretary an opportunity to ascertain
for himself the advantages of these
places for the establishment of a
great brigade and even division post.
Provided the secretary's mission in
Cuba does not consume too much time,
the inspection may be made before
the assembling of the next session of
congress.

Cubans Are in a Race
With Secretary Taft
They Want to Arrange Peace Before Taft and Bacon
Reach Havana Neither Inclined to
Make Many Concessions

Havana, Sept. 17.--Tt is not believed
possible for the Cuban government and
the insurgents TO come to any definite
arrangement In the matter of securing
peace before the arrival in Havana oi
Secretary Taft and Assistant Secretary
Of State Bacon.
This is the way the situation looks
today
Another party of emissaries left Ha-
vana this morning for El Cano for the
purpose of negotiating with General
Del Castillo but it viii be impossible
to reach and confer with all the rebel
leaders before Wednesday.
The most hoped for now is that Sec
retary Taft. on his arrival, will find
matters in readiness for him to begin
adjudication
The moderates are not ret willing
TO make large concessions and neither
are the liberals, considering their
strength in the field, willing to recede
much from their original demands.
General Menocal held a conference
with Alfredo Zayas of the liberals at
a late hour last night, but with no
definite result
The hope that anything like an
agreement for peace can be reached
before Secretary Taft arrives has been
abandoned. While there Is general
desire for such an arrangement on the
part of the insurgents and the governs
ment officials, no definite basis has yet
developed.

Romance of an Iowa Woman Ends
DisastrousIy.

Boone, Ia, Sept. 17.--Mrs. Pearl Ho-
gan, formerly Miss Pearl Norton,
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs e. l.. Nor
ton of st. Louis, was left here by the
special train of the New Parker
Amusement Co, and thereby was en-
acted the final chapter in iisas-
trous romance. Miss Norton had
been deserted by her husband to whom
she had been married in a lions den
at Des Moines. She had gone to
Bonneville, Mo-, on visit and there
saw the carnival, and met the man
with whom she was infatuated
The company wanted a couple to
be married at Des Moines in the lion's
den and the girl yielded to the urging
of the young man. Only 1t was a
mistake. The young woman re-
manned with her husband, out of pride,
till she was compelled to give up and
telegraph her parents for money to
return home.

Governors of some western states
say that because of the sparsely set

Is not vet ripe for a radical reduction
of fares. but that such a reform would
come about when the population in

HosTILfTIEs CEASE.
Taft's Trip to Cuba Has Had Ben
eficial Effect.


Washington, Sept. Secretary
Taft's departure for Cuba has had the
beneficent effect of suspending hostif-
tiles there.
BY the time the secretary and AS
sistant Secretary of State Bacon ar
rive in Havana both parties to the In
surrectionary trouble will be prepared
to confer with them as to the restora-
tion of peace and the permanent sus-
pension of hostilities.
The official advices received here to-
day and over night at the state de-
partment simply tended to confirm the
press dispatches from Havana that ar
rangements were making for the sus-
pension of hostilities on both sides
until the subjects of difference could
be considered with Secretary Taft and
Assistant Secretary Bacon.
In view OF this the state depart
ment officials announced an effort is
being made by both the Cuban gov
ernment and the insurgents to adj
just the situation, practically satisfac-
torily, before Secretary Taft's arrival
in Cuba, in order to avert interven-
tion in any form
1t is realized, of course, that the Pal
ma government does not care TO be
placed in the attitude of dealing with
those whom il regards as traitors, but
negotiations are assumed TO be con-
Quoted through disinterested parties.
1t is expected that President Palma
and representatives Of the insurgents
will have something definite to offer to

tary Bacon very soon after their ar
rival in Cuba. if not Immediately,

Boston, Sept. ia private cable
gram received here today by e. F
Atkins from Cuba, says that the gem
eral conditions in south Santa Clara
province are desperate and that this
Atkins factory and the sugar manu-
featuring buildings on the estate have
been saved from the insurgents by
the presence of the marines from the
gunboat Marietta.
About 1000 people are employed or
the estate, which is one of the largest
in Cuba, controlled by an American
and up to now 1t was believed that the
buildings on the property were in dan
ser from the revolutionists.

Atkins ito the state department at
Washington that warship was dis
patched to the southern side Of tile
