Cnbna Affairs.
CHICAGO, April l0.-A Washington
special says fears are entertained here
that a change of policy Is about to take
place among the Spanish volunteers In
Cuba, which will give our Government
considerable trouble. For some time
past the volunteers have had the vir-
tual management and direction of
affairs In Cuba. This vas especially
so under the monarchy. with which
the volunteers were closely allied. 1t
is we'll known that they have no ad-
mlration for the Spanish republic, and
that they regard the United States with
peculiar aversion. There is report
that the volunteers are maturing plans
for taking possession Of the island
and wrestling 1t from Spain. In
case Of any revolution Of this kind.
It is believed that little respect would
be shown for either the lives or prop
erty OF American citizens. The vol
unteers would murder and confiscate
at will, they would not regard them
selves as bound by treaties now exist
ing between the United States and
Spain, and especially those relating to
Spanish possessions In America. In
view of such a contingency, the Adj
ministration will probably strengthen
our naval force In Cuban waters and
adopt such measures as will insure
protection to the lives and property
of American citizens in Cuba.
