Washington. June 4.-Capt w. d. Smith
of the Cuban army spent considerable time
again to-day with the Senate committees
on foreign relations
In a brief interview with a representa-
tive of the Associated Press he said: The
cuban army is now in better condition to-
resist the Spaniards and to maintain the
tight for independence than IL has been
since the beginning of the war.
Gen. Gomez has a well disciplined army
of about 1000 men, who are determined
to hold out until their efforts shall bs
crowned with victory. Our soldiers ara
rapidly procuring arms, and every day
serves to put them on better footing in
this respect. Our troops enjoy a vast ad.
vantage over the Spaniards. In that thev
are not injuriously affected by the climate.
may say that l have not seen a case
OF yellow fever or smallpox among the
Cuban soldiers since l have been on the
lS2nd, and that | have not been sick
day myself. Furthermore we have no
difficulty In feeding our troops. In the por-
ton OF the country in which the Cuban
troops are In control the provisions are
protected. and we draw our supplies from
this source. Our commfsary Is, there
fore, regularly renewed. and our supplies
are received in quantities quite sufficient
to meet our wants"
In reply to a question, Capt Smith saids
"All talk about autonomy and OF Spanish
reforms for Cuba Is so much breath vast
ed. There is not a man In the Cuban
army who VIII agree to accept anything
short of absolute Independence
Capt. Smith is an American, He has
been In Cuba for year, and Is an officer

sAGAsTA TALKS WITH the QUEEN,
The Liberals Prepared to Deal wfth
All Pending Questions.


Madrid, June 4.-Senor Sagasta. the lib
eral leader, after comforting with the
queen regent at the palace to-day, said
he had told her majesty that the liberals
were prepared to deal with all pending
questions. Public opinion continues to
favor a Sagasta cabinet
Every one Is convinced that the main
question at Issue In the present crisis Is
the selection Of new governor of Cuba,
capable OF convincing the people that
Spain Is In earnest la the matter Of co..
lonial reforms. The crisis Is likely to be
prolonged; but there ls a significant
change of tone visible IN the conserva-
tive papers, which are beginning 70 hint
that the future fate Of the conservative
party Is not altogether dependent upon
Capt. Gen. Weyler.
The impression gains ground that rath-
er than see the liberals In office, the con-
servatives would consent TO recall Wey-
ler and IL Is believed that Marshal Mar
tmez Campos Is willing TO replace him.
II Is understood that Senior Sagasta In
formed the queen regent that II the liber-
ais come into office through the refusal 70
countenance foreign dctation, the recall
Of Gen. Weyler would be among the first
steps taken.
The queen regent Is expected 70 consult
Marshals B.ancO and Dominguez to-mor-
row on the military aspects OF the situa-
ton In Cuba and there Is great anxiety
10 learn the result of the long conferences
between her majesty and Marshal Campos.

Referring to the Tlllman resolution to in
vestigate the report that senators specula-
ted in sugar stock he said that the CON-
mittee would take the question up in good
time, but that so far as he was concerned,
he would not be hurried into reporting
upon matter of so much importance as
is this. He declined to discuss Senator
Tillman's reference to their interview
over the question Of reporting the resolu-
ton beyond saying that when Mr.. TIL
man came to see him he had simply told
him that he would take II up with his col
leagues OF the committee as soon as he
could get them together, as he had not
prior to that time been able to do. The
senator contends that there has been no
undue delay, and that there will be none.

one men were landed.

ing landed he mounted the cannon so as
to guard the cove where the steamer

terest IN the case, he admitted that he was

FAUHE CAUTIOUS ABOUT SILVER.
He Expresses No Opinion to th :
American Commissioners.


Paris June At is learned from an au-
thoritative source that the letters OF Gre
dence presented to President Faure by
Senator Edward o. Wolcott of Colorado
and his colleagues of the United States
monetary commission, designate them as
ministers plenipotentiary to France, Great
Britain and Germany, with the mission In
concert with the United States ambassa-
dors to those countries to discuss none
tary questions and come to some agree
ment on bimetalllsm.
President Faure carefully avoided MAX
ing any statement to them at the audience
which he accorded to the commissioners
al the Elysee palace on Wednesday last
which might be interpreted as a promise
to take any steps in the matter. Before
the commissioners left the palace he invi-
ted them to share his box at the race for
the Grand Prix de Paris. No doubt the
government of France is friendly to the
American mission, but nothing tangible
will be done beyond expressions of sympa-
thy and the assurance that the matter
will be seriously studied

TURKEY AFTER THEssAUY.
Every Indication of An Intention Not
to Retreat.

London. June 5.--There is still every in
dication that Turkey means to remain in
Thessaly. Several Turkish officials accom-
panied by their harems have arrived in
Thessaly from Constantinople. Edhem
Pasha has ordered granaries to be pre-
pared for the storage of the
harvest and Is using every inducement to
get the peasants to return and accept Tur-
keys demand and to raise a blockade
Greece in return insists upon some guar
antee that Turkey will lsaep her promise
not to land munitions of war. II is, there
fore, still uncertain whether the armistice
difficulty will be settled.
1t is reported from Constantinople that
the peace preliminaries have been agreed
to, but this probably means that the am
bassadors have been invited to submit
drafts of details.
