A CHANGE OF TACTICS.
Gen. Gomez Says the War Must
be Settled Quickly.
NE WILL PROCEED TO FORCE A CRISIS.
His Intention is TO Deliver Some Quick
Hard Blows to the Spanish Forces
in the Immediate Vicinity
of Havana.

WASHINGTON. July Is. Maxine
Gomez has changed radically his plan
of campaign. A letter from him has
been received in Washington. Hereto
| fore the commander of the army OF
liber alton has waged a waiting war.
He has maintained that the course for
the Cub ans TO pursue was to let the
fever among the soldiers and the
fnancia stringency of Spain win the
battles for independence. He has been
best satisfied to avoid fighting and to
worry the Spanish forces. But, for
reasons which seem good to him, the
leader of the insurgents has now
adopted an entirely different policy.
This letter received here brings from
Gomez himself the information of the
change.
at must be settled quickly" Gen.
Gomez says, speaking of the war. He
tells that it is his purpose TO force a
crisis as speedily as possible. To this
end he has left the scene of his long
delay near La Reforma, on the eastern
edge of Santa Clara province, has made
his way across Santa Clara and
Matanzas provinces and is now within
Havana province. He intimates that
he regards some quick, hard blows in
the vicinity of Havana as vital to the
cause, and that he will direct them in
person.
The letter was received by an officer
Washington recently. Its contents
can not be made public further than
has been indicated. They are not in
terpreted as altogether encouraging by
the receiver. but rather as showing the
near approach of desperate situa-
ton, as crisis in Cuban affairs
The officer in receipt of the letter
from Gomez will leave at once for
the island. He believes that the
fate of the instruction is now about to
be determined. The feeling that the
immediate future is to produce impor-
tant results in Cuba is shared by the
administration. Within the last few
days three American consuls on the
islands, located at Matanzas, Sagua
and Santiago De Cuba, have asked for
leaves of absence. Under ordinary cir
cumstances, the requests would be
granted. Mr.. Baker, the consul
at Sagua, has not been away from his
post in three years. and has been urged
by his physician to take vacation for
reasons of his health. But the state
| department has notified all of those
consuls that it is not compatible with
public interests to grant leaves at the
present time. Consul-General Lee fully
expected to come to this country in
July. 1t is stated that he will not
leave Havana now because of the pos
sible Developments
