NOT READY Fur AUTONOMY
Continued from First PAGE.

traders would be entirely willing to accept the
customs privilege IL they could have 1t alone.
The reason is that their remembrance OF the
period Of reciprocity with the United States Is
keen. They want reciprocity again. yet not
under Cuban management They would have It
under conditions which would give them the
protection OF the United States. 1t is from this
class that the talk comes OF an American pro-
tectorate over Cuba and ultimately of annexa-
ton.
INsURGENT LEADERS NOT LIKELY TO YIELD
While the Captain General has these difficult
factors to deal with in forming the Government
party Of autonomy some progress from him in
dealing with the insurgents IL looked for In
Spain. Little is expected here. The insurgents
are not accepting the offers Of amnesty In rum
bers grea. enough to thin their ranks. Few
even Of their minor leaders show disposition
to he conciliated surrender, and resume peace
full pursuits under a home rule government.
From present evidences the mass OF them will
hold out until conquered by the sword or until
Gomez and CalixtO Garcia give the word TO
quit. The prospect Of the sword must he left
till General Blanco puts the Spanish troops in
condition again for military operations. No one
now holds out the hope that Gomez and Garcia
Will accept terms short Of independence.
Criticism Is made Of the means taken to reach
the insurgent Generals. Instead of sending
emissaries secretly to offer terms the acceptance
Of which would have laid them open to the
charge OF betraying their cause II is held that
a commission should have gone openly with
the profrer Of autonomy. Whatever might have
been the answer, II Is not thought the members
Of such commission would have been In dan
ger from the insurgents. The idea is still
mooted with the notion that the good offices Of
the United States might he invoked in this
manner with Consul General Lee as the inter-
mcdiary But there material difficulties In
the way OF such a plan.
one feature OF the Blanco mnistration in
Cuba will prove disappointing to the people Of
the United States. The promise Of relieving the
distress ~ the reconcentrados is not being full
filed. Though their numbers have been vastly
decreased by death. the Government has not
shown itself equal to the task Of providing for
those who remain. The humane motives which
dictated the revoca. lion Of Weyiers barbarous
decree have not been followed by energetic
measures Of relief What Is done Is spasmodic
and mainly through private agencies. few
localities repor: an Improvement. but there is
no general marked improvement among
