CUBANS ON THE MESSAGE.

What Leaders in New York Sny of
the President's~ Utterances.
From the New York World.
Piedel Pierra Of the junta-''The message
is an enigma and puzzle. I should have
a far higher regard for Mr.. Cleveland had
he simply announced that the United
States government was opposed to the
cause of Cuban liberty, and sympathized
with Spain's efforts to crush the revolu-
ton. The message will not make a parti-
Gle Of difference one way or the other, so
far as the revolution Is concerned. If the
soldiers Of Gomez and Maceo realize that
the measure means that the United States
will not raise a finger to stop Weyler's
butcheries they will fight with that terrible
energy that is born of despair.
"Cleveland's talk about autonomy only
shows how little he really knows Of the
real state Of affairs. The idea Of auton-
even among the Spanish themselves, con-
slider it seriously. The autonomist party
went to pieces months ago. For us now
there are left only the two alternatives
independence or determination"
Manuel A. Recio de Morales-"I resigned
my position as a leader Of the reformist
party. which is similar in its aims as the
autonomist, because 1 became convinced
tt at absolute independence is all that can
save Cuba
DR.. Henry o. Zayas-"The Presidents
message is decidedly unsatisfactory to both
sides. The Cubans have a right to ex-
pect more, but the consolation remains
that he treats Spain with the scorn which
she deserves for her weak and cruel rule.
Toward the end the President promises
that at some future time his attitude will
be clearly defined. Let us hope then that
he will act in accordance with the express
ed wish of the American people"
DR.. Rafael Navarro Of the Cuban sani-
tary corps-"Cleveland does not say any
thing in his message. He does not mean
to say anything. 1t is words words, and
only words. My hope is in Congress-

A Homestead Decision.

The Secretary Of the Interior has decided
that the amendment Of section 22sS and
2290 Of the Revised Statutes does not au-
thorize the homestead entry of lands in
cluded within the limits OF an Incorporated
town. 1t is held that sound public policy
would not allow such acquisition OF landl
so situated. and thereby likely largely en-
