REPLY TO PLEA AWAITED.
Machado Seems to Indicate He Will
Still Oppose Mediation.
BY CONSTANTINE BROWN.


The State Department is awaiting
President Machados reply to PreSi-
dent RooSevelt's message delivered yes
terday through Ambassador Cintas at
Hyde Park
For the time being, the only answer
to President Roosevelts appeal that
Machado endeavor to improve the eco
nomic conditions in Cuba has been the
declaration Of a stringent martial law
which suppresses the last vestiges of
individual liberty of all Cubans.
By this very action, President Ma
chado seems to indicate that he wishes
to continue his policy of Haunting not
only his fellow citizens but the United
States as well.
Ambassador Welles has informed the
President of Cuba that the Government
of this country fully indorses the FIVE
point plan submitted to Machado by
the Cuban political parties.
Plans Five Points.
This plan demands:
% The appointment by the Presi-
dent of an impartial secretary of state
acceptable to all political elements in
Cuba.
CD Requests the President to take
leave of absence and to authorize the
new secretary of state to reorganize
the cabinet, giving representation in
the new cabinet to all important politi-
cal elements in Cuba.
90 The immediate passage by the
Congress of constitutional reforms
which provide that the members Of the
House of Representatives should agree
to shorten their terms in the Legisla-
ture so that half the House will be
renewed in the national elections OF
1884 Those representatives remaining
in the House to shorten their terms
to corresponding extent as those who
will vacate their seats in that year.
a. Half the Senate is renewed In
1884 and the remaining Senators &c
shorten their term of Office to total
of six years.
60 Creation of vice presidency, the
Vice President to assume the preSi-
dency upon his Inauguration.
The majority of the Cuban political
parties have approved the plan drafted
by their leaders, and the United State:
believes that its acceptance by Machadc
in full, or the acceptance Of compro.
mise plan to be elaborated between
Machado and the leaders of the op-
position is of paramount importance tc

BONDS COMPL|CATE
HOME LOAN RELIEF
Lack of Information May
Bring Court Action to
Curb Foreclosures.

Lack of information on bonds of the
Home Owners Loan Corporation and
fear that cooperation from mortgage
holders in delaying foreclosures may
not continue unless status of the bonds
is clarified constitute factors which are
seriously complicating the functions of
the District Office of the corporation it
developed today. Coupled with these
problems is the fact that home may
be auctioned in the District without
the necessity of court order.
The situation has become such that
intercession of the District Supreme
Court to halt the parade of homes to
the auction block has been sough. by
Charles A. Jones, District manager for
the agency.
Court Attitude Hopeful
From what I have learned today
at the court house." Jones said, Il am
thoroughly convinced that the attitude
of our courts will be TO restrain, for
a reasonable time, any foreclosure pro-
ceedings where it seems reasonable to
believe that this corporation will be
able to act. In such cases this Office
will cooperate with the home owners,
even to the extent of availing ourselves
of the voluntarily offered services of
several local attorneys"
BY this it was understood that in
cases of imminent foreclosure the
courts would approve injunctions to
prevent sale of the homes
Much misunderstanding Jones said
revolves around the bonds of the cor
poration, which it asks mortgages to
accept in exchange for mortgages as
a measure Of relief for distressed home
owners.
While the bonds are guaranteed only

ROOSEVELT WANTS
MACHAD0 TO QUIT
Statement Yesterday Not an
UItimatum, but Intended
as Polite Hint.
BY ]. RUSSELL YOUNG.

HYDE PARK, N. Y, August 10.-At
his desk in his study, with telephone
at his elbow, President Roosevelt today
continues to watch developments in
Cuba with concern.
His first desire today was to deter
mine, if possible, the reaction in the
Cuban capital to the appeal he issued
last night from the Summer White
House In which he called upon the war
ring political factions in the troubled
island to settle their differences with
out delay so as to prepare the way for
the earliest possible relief Of the extreme
distress there.
While no further statements regard
ing the Cuban problem were forth
coming, and in the absence of any in
depreciation of his published appeal, the
firm belief of those close to Mr.. RooSe-
velt Is that he did not intend his state
ment as an ultimatum It Is understood
his real purpose in issuing this appeal
was a polite invitation to President
Machado to place his regard for his
country's welfare above his own per-
sonal and political desires by resigning.
To put it frankly, he wants Machado to
get out.
Republican Support Assured.
President Roosevelt was assured of
the full support Of the Republican party,
especially the Republican members of
Congress, in any action he may take
in the settlement of the Cuban diff
Guilty by Representative Hamilton Fish
Of New York, ranking Republican men,
Der of the Foreign Affairs Committee
of the House
Representative Fish, in whose con-
gressional district the Presidents Sum-
mer White House is located, gave this
assurance during conference today at
Krum Elbow.
The New York Representative said
afterward he personally felt President
Machado of Cuba must resign if peace
and order are to be restored in Cuba
When asked what steps might be
taken by the United States before in
tervention, Mr.. Fish gave as his per-
sonal opinion the withdrawal of recog-
milton, economical and political pressure
and permission for export of arms from
the United States to Cuba.
Represented as Hopeful
: Mr. Fish declined to say what views
the President expressed during their
conference. He intimated that the
President felt hopeful solution would
be worked out without the resort to ex-
treme measures. He did say the Presi-
dent was watching the situation closely.
The impression about the Summer
White House is that President Roose-
velt is still determined to avoid armed
intervention
There is no doubt in the mind of
Mr. Roosevelt that the declaration yes
terday by President Machado of a
state of war" has produced a situa-
ton which now has assumed the pro-
portions of an extreme crisis. Also Mr..
Roosevelt believes bloodshed and dis
