HAVANA, Sept 15. -—-Gen. Rodri-

countered Generals Castillo and A9

bert with forces of about the same last
night near Waisy. The government
claims the ln'slurgepts were diapered
while rebel and other accounts say the
government forces were driven back
and retreated

General Rodigsus returned to Maya-
na during the night and his troops are
encamped a short distance outside the
city The government lost three kill
led and several wounded The insur-
Kent loss is unknown.

President Roosevelt' a notion in send‘
Ing Secretary of War Taft and Acting
Secretary of State Bacon to Cuba to n-
vostignte condition in the island was
regarded favorably on the whole by
those who were first apprised of it.
Cubans generally. it may be said, do
not desire intervention of any sort in
Cuban affairs but the desire for a not
tlement of some kind now predomin

dies. The canviction is overwhelming
that the trouble must be settled
through the United States.

The truth of President Roosevelt‘s
picture of the deplorability of the re-
volution and of his reference to the
United states' right of intervention is
questioned.

Secretary Tsft's reputation as a paci-
licotor and as administration in the
Philippines makes his coming peril
cularly welcome.

Heavy fighting is reported near El
Cane, ten miles southwest of Havana.
No details have yet been received.

A force of rebels yesterday destroy-
ed two stone bridges over a highway
near Cabanas.

The commander of the Cespedes.a

General Rodriguos returned lo lia»

erable speculation as to why the one-

The American cruiser Des Moines

board are well.

The letter of President Roosevelt to
Score de Quosada. the Cuban minister,
is the topic of the day among Cubans
and foreigners alike. Far from con-
sidering his references to American
intervention as something to be dread-
ed. lt is almost universisliy regarded
as thee most, desirable consummation
possible of.the trouble, Some persons
do not agree with this view, but they
are very rare. All the business inter.
sets are anxious for intervention, and
even the politicians admit that this
would be the best outcome.

The Associated Press correspondent
beers that some of the government of-
llclsls who are closest to President
Palms privately welcome the idea.
and that the president himself desires
protection. though not permsnpnt lu-
terventlon.

The general opinion among Cuban
business men today is that interven-
tion is the most desirable tiling which
can he suggested. and their only fear
is that it may be only temporary.

There is somewhat marked feeling
of disappointment among the voter-
ans that intervention is possible or its
minsnt The veterans. for sentimental
reasons, would regret to see Bubs sac»
rides her severe ty in even a small
degree. This f lug. however. is oil
set by the universal desire for a per-
manent settlement of the trouble and
for a government which can be relied
on to preserve peace under all circum.

cast. but conditions did not seem un-
favorable for a trip on the Sound.
When we were about half way across
the Sound, We looked back to good
old Stamford. and we could see that
it was getting quite a washing, while
those on board were enjoying the
beauiful sunshine ' and the balmy
air, for it was a delightful day, At last
we reached the other side. but before
landing We had dinner on board the
boat. ll consisted of sandwiches. no

we started for Stamford it had been
a beautiful day. and not a drop of
rain. After leaving the beach. on our
way to Stamford.rwe repared sup-

had gotten out on the Sound. about
two miles the wind began to blow.

water very rough, One would have
