TOO MUCH REBEL AID
Secretary Gresham Expect
ing a Protest from Spain.

~
planning and Desisted Out of Dis
couragement--Conf1i of Author
ity Aided Filibusters' Plans for
shipping Arms.
Washington, April "a. - Secretary
Gresham will not be surprised should
the spanish premier, Mr.. Canovas, call
his attention to alleged manifestations of
Cuban sympathizers in this country, as
stated in Madrid dispatch. There has
hardly been week since the insurrection
began in the island that Mr.. Muruaga.
the late Spanish minister to the United
States, did not direct Secretary Gres-
hams attention to what he and the
Spanish government considered viola
tions by the United States of the neutral
fly act, in permitting the shipment of
arms and men from this country to aid
the Cuban rovolutionists.
Muruaga Became Discouraged.
Mr. Muruaga made these representa-
tions so repeatedly and so emphatically-
he was kept fully advised by the Span
ish consuls in the United States of the
movements Of the Cuban sympathizers-
that he at last desisted out of pure dis
couragement, finding in every case that
the Spanish governments understand
ing of United States law and United
States obligations was not shared by
United States officials.
Vigilance Went For Naught.
Mr.. Muruaga's complaint, privately,
was that when Secretary Gresham
brought these matters to the attention
of the federal officers at the location
where the arms were stored, or where
the men were to be shipped, a conflict of
authority would arise with the state Off
cials, Meanwhile the arms would be
spirited away or the plans of the filibus-
ters changed SO that the vigilance of the
Spanish government went for naught.
Not a Contest with Cuba.
The right which the United States have
always claimed to sell munitions of war
where they pleased, was very discourag-
ing to Mr.. Muruaga, who regarded it as
useless to continue his protests. He did
80, however, but he left Washington a
week ago declaring that the struggle in
Cuba was not a contest between Spain
and her rebellious subjects, but between
Spain and the United States.
Will Protest Strongly.
1t Is not doubted that Mr.. Dupuy de
LONE, the new Spanish minister to the
United States, who will arrive from
Havana this week, has been requested
to protest strongly against any aid or
comfort being given, at least openly in
this country, to the Cuban rebels.
