THE CUBAN INSURRECTION.

Peace Negotiations Renewed. Press Association.— Telegraph.— Copyright. Received September 1«, 9.30 a.m. HAVANA, September 17. President Palma has suspended hostilities and released thirty of the leading insurgents. Pourparlers are now proceeding between the Government and the rebel leaders, and it is hoped to arrange peace before Mr Taft, U.S. Secretary of State, intervenes. The warships concentrating off Cuba are able to laild 5000 sailors and marines within four days. The Democrats join with the Republicans in eulogising President Roosevelt's promptness. Both sides in Cuba desire intervention and some degree of American control.
