CUBA ASKED FOR
INTERVENTION
All Prearranged and Worked Out
as Planned

Washington, d. c., Oct. 4.-sec
Rotary Root made public today the
correspondence leading up TO the In.
Prevention in Cuba. The correspond.
ence took place between COUNSEL
General stienhart at Panama and Act.
ing Secretary Bacon Of the state de-
partment.
An important feature developed in
the dispatch was that intervention
vas asked by the 9uban government
Is early as September 8, and that as
long ago as September IA, President
Palma had determined TO resign as
president of the republic, and that
the vice president and cabinet minis
ters bad also determined to no long
or continue in Office.
IL was also shown that Intervention
BY the United Staets had long been
planned by che Palma government
and was communicated to the state
department In letter by Colonel
Eteinhart a. early as September 5.
NOT SURPRISING IN CUBA.
Havana, Dot. 4.-That ex-P President
Palma early In September asked for
intervention In the interest Of foreign
lives and property, is not considered
surprising In view Of his subsequent
request Of Mr.. Sleeper, the American
charge, and Commander John @.
Colewell Of the cruiser Denver. But
that no suggested calling congress to
ask for American Intervention as ear
" a. September 9Th, Is considered
surprising.
The correspondence between the
state department and CONSUL Gener-
III Steinhart In connection with Cuban
intervention, reveals the truth OF the
rumors here at tho time and which
were Professionally denied at the palace,
the ex-President declining to speak
pf intervention. Had this CORES.
pondence not been published the i'm.
preston would have continued here
that Senior Palma yielded to interven
ton only after Messrs. Taft and
Bacon had found 1t impossible to rec
oncile the Cuban differences. Score
tary Roor's assertion about giving
the republic another trial 10 regarded
Ia view of the present outlook, Al
idealiatic rather than practical.

Tennessee will be held tomorrow, and
the Democrats will decide whether to
return Edward NJ. Carmack to the sen.
ate, or to displace him with ex-Gov-
ernor Robert L. Taylor The outcome
of the race is doubtful in the ex-
IRENE. Both sides apparently are con-
fident of victory.
Ex-Governor Taylor is one of the
most prominent Democratic leaders of
Esnnessee,7si iDl'i'ua VINO
has been honored with the governor
ship three times since the war. He
has been a candidate for the senate
three times before, but always before
the legislative general assembly. This
time he has been awarded a primary
and his supporters believe this will
help him along to victory
But despite the fact that ex-Gover-
nor Taylor has drawn crowds of ten
thousand or more in one assemblage.
he undoubtedly has the fight of his
life to overthrow Senator Carmacl.
who is the absolute master of the
Democratic machine, a brilliant ora
tor, and one of the most bitter edi-
torial writer's in the South.
Democrats generally consider it es-
pecially unfortunate for the party
that the two leaders should clash, and
il means the survival of the fttest."

taken from placer deposits shows the
great economic importance of such
an inquiry. The value of hydraulic
plants needed for the recovery of
