TRIAL or LUIS s0ME111IAN.
He is Accused of Conspiring to Overthrow
Spanish Authority in Cuba.

Spanish Authority in Cuba
Havana, Jan. s.-The trial of Luis
Someillan, an American citizen, on the
charge of conspiring against the Span
ish government, began this afternoon.
There was a large attendance of spec
tators. Consul General Lee, who re-
Gently said he thought the evidence
against the accused was very feeble,
was present. After the usual prelimi-
naries the charges were read, alleging
that Someillan was an agent here of
the Cuban junta and was in league
with others to overthrow the Spanish
authority in Cuba.
AS in the case of Julio Sanguilly, re-
Gently convicted of conspiracy, the de-
fence protested ae e,irst the formation
Of the tribunal, arguing that the ac-
cused should be tried by six judges, ac-
cording to the law of 1921, instead of
five, the number composing the court.
The objection was overruled. Then
followed the reading of the evidence
obtained at the preliminary proceed
ings, from which it appeared that So
IHellldl IeCelNeu d COQe message from
Key West which the prosecution claim
ed referred to the landing of filibus-
tering expedition. The telegram, which
was read, was as follows:
Tell Alfredo to advise Jose Maria
Matilde's marriage Thursday. Advise
if will be present.
The inference that this was cipher
was borne out by instructions that
were found on the prisoner when he
was arrested.
Someillan testified that the telegram
was intended for his cousin Jose, to
whom it was delivered. He declared
that he never mixed in politics, and
had no connection with the rebels.
Witnesses were called by the prose-
cution, but their evidence was weak,
they testifying to nothing that would
support the charge against the prison
er. The court then adjourned until to-
morrow, when further evidence will be
heard.

GOMEZ DOES NOT SEEK PEACE.

Story of His Alleged cGsssr 70 q. .;.o5 Spanish
Said to be a Fabrication.
New York, Jan. 8.-A morning paper
to-day contained what purported to be
terms of peace offered to the Spanish
by the Cuban General Gomez. When
the attention of DIR. Castillo Of the Gu
ban delegation in this city was called
to the article to-day he denounced it
as base fabrication, and declared
that Gomez had no power to make such
an offer.
An article in the constitution Of the
Cuban government, he declared, ex-
pressly stipulated that no negotiations
could be opened with Spain that did
not provide for complete independence.
The president and the legislative body
of Cuba were the only ones empowered
to negotiate with Slain. DR.. Castillo
further said that Cuba's prospects were
never more promising and declared
that stories Of disaffection in Cuban
ranks were Spanish lies.
