All classes are now awaiting for the conditions under which tranquility will likely be restored in Cuba, and keen disappointment is expected on every side because of the likelihood of peace being brought about without armed American intervention. That the differences of the opposing factions could he reconciled was not generally believed to be possible until Sunday, when it was announced that the liberals and the insurgents had empowered a committee to represent them before the American mediators. It is evident that the business interests of the island have no confidence in the ability of the Cubans to rule themselves, and now, when it appears too late, they are openly favoring forcible intervention and possibly annexation. Secretary of War Taft is cognizant of this general opinion that peace cannot last unless it is enforced by an American army, but he considers that it is the duty of the United States to give the republic another chance, and believes that it would be bad policy for the United States to keep a force in Cuba longer than was required to supervise the laying down of arms. He said that if the liberals and moderates harmonize their differences the United States must regard the compact as made in good faith.

A burlap bag stamped with the name "Z. K. Mano," a strip of a woman's skirt and an oil cloth table covering are the only immediate clues to the perpetrator of a revolting murder committed here.
