ssmbly district are indignant at receiving in.
v~itations from the Plaza Republican Club in.
viting them to participate in a parade tonight
in connection with the meeting at Carnegie

Mayor. Their Indignation WAS not aroused over
the fact that the club is out for Low, for that
was expected, as the club is one OF the political
assets OF Arson G. McCook, manager OF the Low

WAS the printing in n conspicuous place on the
invitation OF the Republican ballot emblem.
Mr.. Low is not running under that emblem, and

Special Cable Despatch to THE sus.
MADRID, oct. 2o.-Much excitement has been
caused here by tho report Of the successful
evasion Of the United States auLhori-
ties by the tlibustering schooner Silver
Heels, which sailed from New York a
few days ago. 1t had been hoped that
with the accession OF Senior sagasta TO the Pre-
micrship tho departure of nlibustering expedi-
lions from tho United States would cease on
the strength Of his promises to grant autonomy
to Cuba.
The Impartial to-day prints q violent article
on the subject. in which 1t voices the popular
insistence that the Government demand an OK
PLANTATION from Washington. 1t refers to the
following words, which it ascribes to Sehor
Sagasta upon the occasion OF his assuming the
office OF Prime Minister:
1T 10 impossible to endure such humiliations.
Energetic action must be taken in regard to the
Government of the United States"
Gen. BlanCo. the new Captain.G eneral OF
Cuba. when on the eve OF embarking at Corunna
for Havana. said:
II go to Cuba with full confidence in the eff.
cacy of the new proceedings. and in the immcti-
ate and certain success of tho military and po-
litical action | have been instructed to
develop simultaneously. There can be no
distinctions regarding autonomy. That which
is going TO be conceded to Cuba 10 autonomy
and responsible power such as Sehor Sagasta
expounded in his June manifesto.

the war. l heard one OF my Generals
yesterday express confidence that We would re-
turn victorious in seven months. II all ends
well it would not matter IL It took a little longer
to reach peace"
HAVANA, Oct. lila Lucha says: I'VE
neither affirm nor deny that Gen. Lee, tho
American Consul-General, will return to Cuba
with a special commission from his Govern
ment to the insurgcnt leaders. We only say
that the report comes from good sources, and
that completely in this scheme by the Spanish
Cabinet appears almost certain"
The above paragraph and the entire article OF
voy." is making considerable talk here. The
Spaniards believe that the American Consul.
General will come to offer autonomy to the in.
surgents, well knowing that the Cubans will not
accept it. and the Americans will undertake the
mission only for the sake of appearances, and in
order to make such a report to the Washington
ministration 10 recognize the belligcrency OF
the CIbans, or perhaps their Independence. at

Among thoughtful people here this Talk Is re
garded as due to the eXcitable temper OF the
Spanish. and as not really based upon fact. Blu,
