A remarkable article appeared in yesterdays
edition OF the VOz de cuba, in advocacy OF the
claims OF General Jose de la Concha Marquis OF
Havana, to the Captain Generalshp OF this island
Concha, whose name recalls deeds of tyranny and
acts of violence. during the period OF his command
in days gone by, and whose despotic and blood
thirsty disposition would accord well with the
oligarchy who are striving to recall him to Cuba,
and who have according to their own confession,
used all their endeavors to bring about this result
and naturally have built many expectations
on the ground OF their expected success. 1t
is well known that their agent at Madrid
has been smoothing" the way. Should the
return Of Concha De brought about, and the
republican government OF Spain so far lose Its
own respect as to appoint this man to the chief
command OF Cuba, that act alone would almost be
sufficient to warrant the Intervention OF the United
States, on the broad international ground OF hui
manlty, which step would be the immediate DEATH
blow OF the cherished institution of the oligarchy
namely, slavery, Witha, even under existing cir
cumstances, and under The present Captain Gen.
eral, the epoch OF tyranny and oppression is In full
sway; only this very week an agent Of the Asso-
ciated Press was threatened through superior u
thority' to dose OF something unpleasant If he
should attempt to send by the way OF Key West
a telegram which was not allowed to pass the 'su.
perior authority" direct from here.
