REBELS MOT HEW EtECTIOII REASOX WHY ARMS WERE TAK EH CP AGAINST PALMA'S GOVEKXME.VT Vi CUBA. Rulldings Are DynamiU-d and Set on Fire, Killing Nix and Wound ing Many Other. Havana, Sept. 18. At a meeting of rebel leaders held In the Town Hall of Bejucal yesterday It waa d elded, after a number of violent speeches had been delivered, not to accept the peace propositions of the Government. In spite of the announcement of an armistice and the feverish activity of the preaent Government and the in surgents alike to arrive at a basis of peace before the arrival here of the United Slates envoys, there was heavy fighting In Santiago province yesterday. A telegram says that 400 rnraies were engaged with an un known number of rebels and that the result was not reported at the time of sending the message. Washington, Sept. 18. Washing ton official circles are not so hopeful today as they were yesterday of the successful mission of Secretary Taft and Asslstnit Secretary Bacon to Havana. Two things have transpired which have led to serious misgivings. One was the cutting of the Clenfue gos cable to Bermuda and the other a great explosion In Havana, caus ing several deaths. Officials point out that these two manifestations In different parts of the Island indicate a desperation which auggests the possibility of reign of terror. Nothing would so soon force armed intervention as a series of outrages in Havana and a few such performances as the ctfttlng of the Clenfuegos cable, which is an English property. New York, Sept 18. The revolu tionary Junta of New York has Issued a proclamation giving the Liberal In surgents' reasons for taking up arms against the Palma Government. This proclamation says: "In the first place, this movement must not be confounded with the in ternecine strife that so often disturbs the peace of the republics of South and Central America. In the latter movements the one object of the leader is to gain control of the Presi dency. With us It is not so. "We have been careful not to over draw tBe seriousness of the political situation In Cuba, and have made no charges that cannot be fully sub stantiated by unbiased Investigators. "We charge that President Palma obtained his office through fraud and Intimidation and by the denial to the Liberals of their right of suffrage. "We charge that the government of President Palma was directly re sponsible for the killing of Colonel Enrique Vlulluendas, a member of the Houbo of Representatives, at Clenfuegos, on September 22, 1905. "We charge that President Palma has usurped the power aud functions of the governing bodies of the mu nicipalities and has annulled, arbi trarily and without warrant of law, the elections of Liberal officials, dlu placing them with members of hit own political party, the Moderates. "We charge that he has in Ilka manner removed from the bench Judges who refused to act In their Judicial capacity according to his dic tatorial conduct. The Liberals have made continued peaceful appeals that this Injustice be righted, but to all these the Government turned a deal Denied tho constitutional right for which the Cubans fought, Med and died for nearly half a cen- tsry, we decided that our only re course was again to take up arms. "We now ask only one thing, that the Illegal and fraudulent election ol last December be annulled and a new election bold at which every Cuban eltlien will be given a fair chance to vote." In concluding, the proclamation ays: "That Palma Is today the dlctatot or Cuba Instead of the Weyler," and declares that the men who surround him are the same who supported the Spanish regime while patriotic Cu bans were In the field fighting. A story which Is being told Ir financial circles here says the rea cause of the action .of.. President Roosevelt In regard to Cuba waa not the appeals of American angar plant ers near Clenfuegos, but a complain made through the British Embassy w Washington regarding the damag done to property of the West en Railroad, which la owned by Britlsl ; capitalists, and the bead of which li In London. Views of Newspaperman. Nicholas River o, head proprietor and editor of the Diario Deden La! Marina, arrived In New York y ester-! day from Havana. He said: "When I left Havana the eituatlon wss considered grave, but I think that Mr. Taft will reach an agree- ment with the revolutionists by sup porting some of their claims. "I do not think that the rebels wfll accept anything less than a new election." "Asked if he believed President Palma would resign, Senor Rivera replied: "I do not think he would resign of his own accord, but if it were neces sary for the peace of Cuba I am surs President Palma is patriotic enough to do so." - Blow l'p House. Havana, Sept. 17. An explosion wrecked- two brick buildings here yesterday morning and six are dead and many wounded. Incendiaries are supected. Much alcohol was stored in the wrecked buildings, but the force of the explosion was such that the au thorities think some on placed dy namite In them.

A large auto mobile, containing four men, who were evidently bent on having a good time, and running at a high rate of speed, ran down C. Figonl, a machin ist, on the San Leandro road last night, and so injured the victim that he may die. Whether Figonl was simply maimed for life or was killed did not appear to cause the automoblllsts any worry, for the chauffeur kept right on in a wild flight, going towards Oakland. Unconscious, bleeding and with one leg and arm broken, besides In ternal injuries, Figonl was later found In the roadway by a crew of a Haywards electric car. He was first taken to the power-house at Elm hurst, where Dr. J. Hamilton tempor arily treated the wounds and was later removed to his home at Elm hurst.
