New YORK, Oct. 28.-Thomas Els.

If the Cuban reforms proposed by the
Spanish ministry, said:
LAS the representative of the Cuban
provisional government, am in po-
sition to state most emphatically that
the Cubans in arms will enter into no
compromise with Spain. Cubans are
fighting for absolute independence and
they will entertain no peace proposals
from the Spanish government based on
any thing but absolute independence.
1.-The Cuban patriots are firmly deter.

their purpose is accomplished. They
will listen to no proposition acknowl.
edging Spanish authority over Cuba. l
am speaking for men who are fully re.
solved to give up their lives, if need be-.

voicing the aspirations Of the Cuban
people. Cubans will never accept au.

luton of their struggle for indepen-

settled this time once for all"
A mass meeting Of Cubans will be
held in New York soon to voice opposi.

Union Pacific Reorganization Committee
Make Uncle Sam a New Offer.
WASHINGTON. Oct. 27.-Although the
government officials decline either to
affirm or deny the report Of its accept.
ance of the new proposition of the re-
organization committee of the Union
Pacific railway there is no doubt
of its accuracy. This proposition is un.
lerstood to be an increase Of the orig.
inal guarantee bid of $50, 900 to a
sum sufficient to cover the full amount
of, the governments claim against the
Union Pacific railroad proper, which
on Oct aggregated $58, 1893. This
includes -tke- -pFincipaA Of the debt
which amounts to $27. .236, ,5i2, and the
balance of the interest paid by the
United States amounting to $50. $50. 1856.
This represents the full amount of the
Union Pacific's obligations to the gov.
ernment. The sale of this road will be
proceeded with as originally intended
about Nov. l.
AS to the Kansas Pacific road, the
company withdraws its guarantee and
consents to postponement Of the sale
to any date to suit the
Convenience Of the Government.
This action, it is understood, leaves the
government in the same position with
respect to the Kansas Pacific as before
the negotiations were instituted. and in
this situation the government may. If
it so desires, postpone the sale in.
definitely. The debt Of the Kansas Pa
cific to the government aggregates
nearly Sl3,OO0,O 900, of which amount
| So, 300, 600 is principal.
Whether the government will ask the
court to order sale of the Kansas Pa.
cilic on Dec. 15 cannot be stated, but,
should it so decide, it is understood
that no objection will be raised by the
reorganization committee. The net re-
suit of the new arrangement, SO far as
concerns the Union Pacific, is regarded
by the officials as highly advantageous
to the government, as it secures all thai
it has ever claimed to be due it, and
renders it practically certain that 9
very large share of the debt Of the Kan
sas Pacific will be realized, whenever j
may decide to consent to its eale.
