PALMA LEAVES THE CUBAN CAPITAL
GOVERNOR TAFT PREPARES TO
OCCUPY PALACE AS HIS OF.
FiciAL RESIDENCE,

Havana, Oct 3. - Ex-President
Palma has vacated the palace here
and Governor Taft will take up his
residence there during the week. The
disarmament proceedings are going on
without hitch in the vicinity of Ha-
vanat Elsewhere they have not ye>
begun. While there Is some question
as to whether the disarmament will
be accomplished In the Cienfuegos re-
gion without some friction no opposi-
tion OF consequence is anticipated.
The news from Cienfuegos, province
OF Santa Clara, Is that the $50 marines
from Havana arrived there none too
soon. as the situation was threatening,
caused partly by the dissatisfaction Of
the volunteers over the prospect Of be-
Ing disbanded with pay only for the
actual time served and partly because
OF the uneasiness of the revolutionists
surrounding the city. In Santiago
province the revolutionary movement
has caused lack of work and actual
suffering.
Guerra's Men Sent Home.
The disarmament commission sent
from Havana began work during the
day In the vicinity of Santa Clara city
and 1t Is expected that 1000 OF Pine
Guerra's men will be entrained for
their homes in Pinar del Rio province
shortly from point near Havana.
The provisional government is con-
sidering whether 1t Is wise to send an
escort Of 400 marines on the train to
the city of Pinar del Rio with the
homeward bound insurgents.
J Major Ladd Of the disarmament
commission reports that he is having
no trouble whatever with the insur-
gents In Havana province, many Of
them actually laying down their arms
and others retaining their own rifles.
The American marines at Camp Co
lumbia have been ordered to keep
within the government reserve, so
there will be no mixing with the reb-
els and little with the government sol
diers.
Business Is picking up wonderfully.
Contracts arc being renewed, enter
prises Of all sorts are being revivified
and more people are being employed.
The confidence Of the business ele-
ments In the provisional government
is apparently unbounded
