The Cuban Juuta,

NEW YORK, April 6.-The Cuban
Junta. through its counsel, Horatio S.
Rubens, who claims to speak officially,
made statement to-day. 1t declared
that the Cuban provisional government
and the Cuban army would reject alb
solutely intervention by the United
States unless it should be preceded by
recognition of the independence OF
the Cuban republic; that if the United
States persisted in intervening without
recognizing Cuban independence, the
Cuban government and military forces
would refuse to cooperate; and that if
United States troops should be sent to
Cuba upon the basis of intervention
without recognition, the Cuban army
would in the last resort turn it's arms
against the United States.
Mr.. Rubens further says: Should the Tilted
S ates declare rrote t)rate over the Island
however provisional TOT tenative-and seek to
extend its authority over the government Of
Cuba and the army Of liberation, we would
resist with force of AIMS as bitterly and te
naciously as we have fought the armies Of
Spain. They wi not haYe the United States

fruits OF it, saddling Us among other things,

Wednesday morning. Until she reaches Vic,
to,ia and Andree's reported message IS made
known it will not he possible, Of course, to
learn anything about BIS discoveries or adj
ventures, but the fact that Information from
him may soon be at hand has aroused the
keenest interest In all quarters, and the hope
is everywhere expressed that Carr is really
the bearer OF news from the daring explorer
and bis companions.
1t has been learned that Carr left St Mich.

Continuing, the Heraldo expresses the
belief that "publio opinion abroad is
