A letter 1rom General Msceo.

WASHINGTON. Feb. 5.--In letter writ
ten in Pinar del Rio province recently
and printed here General Antonio Maceo
denies that his aid, Colonel Bermudez,
has been killed and then talks OF the re-
ported rupture between himself and Gen.
sral Gomez as follows;
lin the first place there can be no such
thing as a misunderstanding or rupture,
or whatever you may choose to call it, be
tween General Gomez and myself. He IS
the commander I'm chief, and as such MS
orders are as laws TO me- / am only lieu
tenant general Of the army, and at all
times, in all places and for all reasons
am subject TO his commands.
aside from the rules Of military disoi-
pline there is not a soldier in the Cuban
army who would consider for an instant
tho disputing Of the words or commands
of MaximO Gomez The entire army con
fides implicitly in his patriotism and his
military ability. We who have known
him and followed him in other wars are
too certain OF our own comparative weak
ness to doubt his wisdom and judgment. y
General Maceo closes his letter as fol
lows:
Il will not venture, as you ask me, to
say how long the war win last. It may
be a conflict of months or of years. There
IS no telling. But this much is certain
that tho red and yellow flag Of Spain will
never wavo again in triumph over an en-
shaved Cuba. Cuba must be free The
long oppressed people have dedicated anew
their lives TO the work Of emancipation,
and the God of heaven viii strengthen
their arms

BosToN, Feb. 5.-Captain William p.
Howe Of the schooner Leander V. Beebe
which rescued 20 men from the sinking
steamer J. W. Hawkins of Montauk point,
has received from New York a valuable
pair OF opera glasses, also a package said
to contain money, as a token of gratitude
from the men he rescued.
First Officer Lind OF tho Beebo gives
some additional interesting facts not in
cluded in Captain Howo's story of the dis
aster Mato Lind wears on his coat o
white enameled button bearing the Cuban
coat OF arms, which he says was presented
TO him by General Garcia, together with
a dagger of unique design. He says that
awkward handling capslzed one boat, and
in fishing the men out Of the water he
jumped over himself and caught one man
by the hair OF the head while he was GO
ing down the last time He never saw
such a grateful crowd Of men. He is pos
five that among the party rescued was
General Garcia and his son, as they both
told him their names, and the other mem
bors Of the party addressed the elder as
general.
Lind claims that the men were ahun-
dantly provided with money, and one of
them, wishing TO take the position Of the
sunSen steamer and not being supplied
with paper, iotted down the latitude and
longitude in which she sunk on 500
bank note He also claims that two of
the men had yalises strapped to them,
which they constantly carried around, as
though their contents were of a valuable
nature. General Garcia assured him that
he would hear from him later, and II the
Cuban Insurgents were successful he would
remcmber him handsomely.

Tho Junta In New York Encouraged.

NEW YORK. Feb. 5.--The Cuban junta,
with headquarters at 66 Broadway, Is in
a rather cheerful state of mind.
President Palma's associates are conf
dent that Generals Gomez and Maceo have
some big scheme which they are about TO
play against the first move of the new gov
ernor general Of Cuba.
The fact that Gomez had succeeded in
getting around the west end Of the island
and that Maceo had, with his wounded
men, lodged the troops sent to surround
him is taken as an indication Of the sue
cess of the plans Of the insurgent loader.
The latest advices received at the head
quarters of the insurgents are 20 the effect
that Spanish troops have been drawn from
Havana for the epurpose of surrounding the
insurgents 10 that extent that Havana to-
day is less well guarded than at any time
since the rebellion began. As to what the
next move Of Gomez may be all profess ig-
nOrance.
