Will and Will Not Do.

New York, Oct. 5.-The Herald
prints number of interviews with
leading Cubans here on the situation In
the island.
Estrada Palma. representative OF
the Cuban provisional government,
said:
THE Cubans are more firmly deter
mined than ever to push the fight until
absolute independence of Cuba is &C.
knowledged. l believe the Cubans are
willing to pay reasonable indemnity
to Spain, provided she withdraw her
troops from Cuba before the island is
totally ruined.
Enrique Devarona said: THE only
practical solution OF the Cuban problem
is absolute independence.
Colonel F. Lopez de Queralta. for.
mery of the United States army. and
veteran OF the 10 years war in Cuba,
said:
ITO avoid further shedding OF blood
of innocent people l would, although
painfully, sign and give my consent to
compensation to Spain for the sake
of getting rid of the Spanish. y

said: "Cubans are fighting for abso-
lutte independence. and will accept no
other solution
Regarding the proposition for the

ispleasing to any OF the parties, except
that the amount is greatly in excess OF
the true value OF the relics left by Wey-
Ter. The United States could afford TO
back up the proposition, because it
would have the revenue Of Cuba to
guarantee reimbursement, and would
gain immediate Improvements in its

Immediate Recall OF Weyler and the
Granting of Promised Reforms.
New York, Oct "a dispatch to
the World from Madrid says:
The World correspondent called to-
day on Premier Sagasta, who said, in
response to inquiries: You ask me if
the liberal party would assent TO medi-
alton by the United States. with view
to Fastening the pactication OF Cuba
and inducing the rebels in arms and
the exihs to accept autonomy. Why
should We need mediation. when our
intentions-long and often expressed
by the liberal praty-aim at realizing
all that America could suggest:
mo Spanish party. certainly not the
liberals. could assent TO foreign inter.
ference in our domestic affairs, or with
our colonies. No government could
hope to induce the nation to accept
such interference. Ii America. as We
firmly believe and hope. is disposed to
be friendly with us. let her observe the
rules of international law, and stop the
flow OF mortal and material aid, with.
out which the insurgents could not last
five months.
I've shall reverse the policy in
Cuba. beginning, naturally, with the
recall of Weyler. l informed the
queen yesterday that the liberal party
would accept the responsibility OF Office
most willingly if her majesty honored
the party with her confidence; that the
liberal party had plans for all pending
questions OF the day in Spain, and Ger.
tainly would grant TO Cuba autonomy
along the lines traced in the program
OF the Cuban autonomists themselves
l said so in my manifesto in June, and
have repeated the same promise dur.
ing the government holidays. The lib.
eral party is prepared to grant to Cuba
all possible government, a broad tariff
and every concession compatible with
the intiexible defense OF SPANS rule
and sovereignty in the West Indies.
We believe this will satisfy the major
ity Of Cubans and We will act thus
spontaneously

SUNK OFF THE RIVER.
Schooner Orion Cut Down by the Ship
Peru.


Astoria, Oct. 6.-Shortly after
O'Clock this afternoon, just as she was
completing one Of the fastest trans
Pacific sailing trips on record, the big
four.masted German ship Peru crashed
into the little coasting schooner Orion,
cutting her in two and sending her to
the bottom Immediately.
When the little vessel was struck by
the big steel ship, the captain was
thrown across the deck, badly bruised,
and every one of his four men were
knocked about and more or less seri-
ously injured. They succeeded in grasp
ing ropes of the German bark. and
climbed aboard, and thus made their
escape. Captain Nelson was loath to
say who he thought was to blame for
the collision. He AYERS that his
schooner was on her course for Shoal-
water bay. The weather was perfectly
clear and the sea smooth The acct
dent occurred north OF the lightship.
some l2 or Is miles of the mouth of
the river.
The tug Relief was towing the Ger
man bark, and the captain declined to
make statement. The captain Of the
schooner laid his case before the Brit
ish vice.consul here tonight, and the
matter will he thoroughly investigated.
The shpwrecked crew are now at a
hotel in Astoria, without a cent Of
money or clothes other than what was
on their backs at the time OF the COLI
sion.
The Orion was en- route from San
Francisco for Willappa harbor in bal
last, and at the time of the accident
was on the starboard tack, steering by
the wind. While the reticence OF the
men in charge of the vessel makes 1t
difficult to get at the exact cause of the
disaster, it is apparent from what little
information they volunteer that there
was u miscalculation as to the speed OF
the vessels. which prevented their hav-
ing sea room until it was too late TO
avoid collision.
The Peru being heavy steel ship
could not be much damaged by the en-
counter with the smaller wooden YES
sci, but she came out Of the collision
with her jibboon and bowsprit cap
missing. The Peru was on her way 10
