Delegates From Thirty-one Countries Meet at Berlin. Havana, Sept. 27.— The government party last night abandoned its basic contention that it is impossible to treat lor peace with armed rebels, and pro posed to negotiate directly with a com mittee of its opponents. It agreed to leave all points upon which under standing is not reached to the final ar bitration of Secretaries Taft and Bacon. The goveinment first suggested that it would treat with the Liberals if they would lay down their arms, but the American commissioners ruled that this stipulation was unfair and the Moderate representatives hold this view. It is beyond question that both par ties were brought to a more tractable frame of mind by the verbal ultim a tum issued by Messrs. Taft and Bacon yesterday in the name of President Roosevelt, that, unless they consent to a fair arbitration, the United States must compel the same by a temporary military occupation. Such occupation, it was declare], would not mean Ac er- ican sovereignty. It would continue only until new elections had been held, the government firmly established and order restored. Whatever the outcome of the negoti ations between .he Liberals and Mod erates may be, it is felt here that there will be need for all the American ma rines within reach, as there is little confidence in the ability of the rebel leaders to control their men when or dered to give up their arms and return to their homes. I t is tactitiy understood by the com mittees of the two parties that, unless an agreement is reached this week, armed American intervention w ill en sue. The Moderates declare that the appointment of a committee to negoti ate with the Liberals does not mean the conceding of new elections. The general disposition to get together is stronger.

Salt Tru st Raises P rice. New York, Sept. 28.— The Interna tional Salt company yesterday raised i's prices on all grades of salt approxi mately 60 cents per ton. This is said to be the third raise within a period of tb 'e e months. Tho reasons given are that the shotting down of two of the largest producing plants in the Utica district has caused a shortage in tbe supply, that the demand is unprece dentedly large and that much difficulty has been experienced recently in se curing care in which to transport tbe prod act.
