Effort viii BE Made to Have Him Go
Like wey1er.
HAVANA, Nov. 18.-The new secre-
tary general of Cuba, DR.. Jose Con-
gesto, formerly Spanish consul at Phil
adelphia, continues to make himself
unpopular. He has had dispute with
various leaders. 1t is understood that
letters have been written to Madrid
calling attention TO the alleged eccen-
tricities of the secretary general and
also dwelling upon his peculiar political
sentiments.
It is believed here that there will be
great excitement in Spain as soon as
the United States congress meets. Let
tiers found upon captured insurgents
were recently advised to keep up the
struggle for three months longer, point
ing out that the first act of the Sagasta
government would be the removal of
General Weyler, and adding that war
would be made on the Spanish minister
at Washington, Senior Depuy de LONE.
1t is charged that Senior Depuy de
Lone and DR.. Congosto are to blame
for the spread i'll the United States of
the sentiment in favor of autonomy,
and it is even alleged that they have
induced American newspapers to advo-
cate their policy.
There is much excitement here at
present over the news of the landing of
another filibustering expedition by the
Dauntless.

voted to discussion of the question
"Should UNCONVENTIONAL Beliefs I'M

liberal view of the matter had been
taken, but all seemed to agree that in
teaching the Baptist faith it was neces-
