There was no representative colored
man from Washington present today at

OF theirs that the home city of the great
colored commoner was not represented,
as all arrangements had been perfected
for large delegation from the District
TO be present in Rochester today.
The failure of the Washington contin-
gent to carry out it's program was due
TO a telegram which was received about

RESIGNATION OF gomez
The Cuban General Said to
Have Sheathed His SWerd.
HE rs HOSTILE TO AMERICA
III L. Reported That the Revolution
AIRY Veteran AntnRomizes the oc-
eapution of the Island by Ameri-
can Forces and Opposes the Dis
bamdment of the Cuban Army.

Santiago de Cuba, Sept 1.-THE report
fs current here that Gen. Lawton this
morning received word that Gen. Maxi
mo Gomez had resigned the command OF
the Cuban army. The Cuban government,
having its seat at Camaguey, is said to
have accepted his resignation without
protest, owing 70 the generals criticisms
of the civil officials alleged attitude OF
complaisance toward American dornina-
tion of Cuba.
Gen. Gomez is reported to have said
that the Cubans should resist American
control, even by arms, If necessary. and
that the present submission and allowance
of American occupation of the Cuban
towns was a virtual acceptance Of the
plain intention of America to retain pos
session of Cuba
While some of the Cuban officers in
Santiago discredit the report. most of
them are OF the opinion tIat Gomez op-
poses the dissolution Of the Cuban army,
anticipating the necessity for armed re-
sis.ance to American control Of the is and.
Maxine Gomez, who has commanded
the forces of Cuba Libre'' since the in
surrection broke out in 1855, was born in
San Domingo in 1885, He first became
prominent as an officer in the Spanish
army. He Joined the patriots in 1868, and
fought through the ten years war, be
ing the Cuban commandeT-in-chief from
1873 to 1878. He eXceIled as a guerrilla
commander and frequently crossed the
Spanish trochas, or military walls. when
they were looked upon as impossible. Al
ter peace was proclaimed Gomez entered
The service of Honduras.
In 1885, with Antonio Maceo and Crom-
bot, he attempted TO renew the war in
Cuba, but after two years of preparation
their plans failed, and he returned TO
San Domingo.
Early in April, 1885, Gomez and Jose
MARI left San Domingo for Haiti.
Thence they sailed for Cuba in a yacht
with about fifty well-armed men. They
landed near Holguin, on the northern
coast of the province Of Santiago de Gu
ba, where a large force Of insurgent Is
awaited them. From that time on Gomez
has not ceased his efforts to wear ont
the Spanish forces and bring about the
independence Of Cuba
Gomez is a man Of slim build but of
mearked military bearing. He has great
personal magnetism.
The son of Gomez known 10 his friends
as "Panchito" Gomez, was killed in De
cember, 1896, when Antonio Macco met
his death in an ambush not far from Ha-
vana.

Hobson arrived here today from
Morristown, n. j., and went at
once to the Office of the Merritt
Wrecking company, where he was
in close consultation with the Off
GERS of the company for two hours.
At the end of the conference he
said that the contracts for the
raising of the wreck of the Cristo-
bal Colon were about arranged.
The contracts, of course, must
be approved by the Judge Advocate
General of the Naval Construction
Board" he said. They are not
fully completed, 90 to Washing

office of the wreckiug company to
see Lieutenant Hobson and he
chatted with each few moments
He said he might make short
visit at his Alabama home if he re-
turned to the feet via Key West

possible on this trip, as it would be
necessary to get back to his work

him to telegraph at the papers ex-
pense, what indemnity the United

case peace proceedings were en-
