BLANCO'S ALLEGED "PLOT."
Story That He Wanted to Form an Inde'
pendent Spanish Republic In Cuba
Under His Leadership.

Washington, Oct GA sensational
story of plot to form an independent
Spanish republic in Cuba under the
leadership of Blanco and Pando was
given out here last night from Cuban
sources. 1t is said the story can be
supported by facts. The plan was that
Gen. Blanco should proclaim q revolu-
ton in Havana against the sovereignty
of Spain and declare Spanish-Ameri-
can republic, with himself at the head
of the government and all of the
various leaders of the civil govern
ment, the commanders of the volun-
teers and the Spanish army were to
concur in the movement and ostensi-
bly, sever their allegiance to Spain
and be turned over bodily to the
hands of Gen. Blanco, under his new
government The movement was to
be entirely free and independent OF
the insurgents, who were not to be
recognized in the affair. A further
part of the plot was to reach out after
the republic had been established in
Havana and conquer the remaining
portions of the island held by the in
surgents as fast as possible until the
island should be entirely reclaimed.
Gen. Blanco and his supporters Ia
bored under the hallucination that by
revolving against Spain and declaring
an independent government, which
should be firmly and strongly organ
lied, that they would get the recogni'
ton of their independence from the
United States, which the insurgents
had failed to secure.
