A CHANCE,

/ Fer Equal Footing is All That Cuba Asks.
New York, Dec 0-Autonomy is
today again officially rejected by a
proclamation of the Cuban Govern
ment, signed by President Masso,
Vice President Capote and Secretary
Perez and printed here. The proc
lamation says:
Upon the question Of autonomy
the Republican Government can
only hold one opinion. We hold our
selves an independent nation, unrec-
ognized, though we may be by the
civilized world. Autonomy is not
for one moment considered by us.
We absolutely reject it.
FEELS NEAR THE GOAL.
Autonomy is too late. We feel
we are nearing our goal. Brides
have been freely offered, good post
ions for life assured to our officers il
they would surrender, but they
steadfastly refused. If we are &C.
corded rights we can treat with the
Washington Government on distinct
BASIC. We can assuredly give proof
of our form of government, and
light will be thrown on our exact
status.
In an accompanying interview
with Commander-in-Ch Chief Gomez,
also printed in the Journal, hs says:
FREEDOM THE r1Ksr AIM.
"The idea Of arbitrary annexation
OF this territory is inconsistent with
the principles on which the American
Republic is founded. If, in the
future, after Cuba has won her free
dom, and it is demonstrate that
she is capable OF self government, it
became apparent that her interests
would be advanced by incorporation
into the United States, would be
the last to object. That is very
different thing from arbitrary annex
alton"
Asked what his views were on an
American protectorate over the 10.
land, Gen. Gomez replied that he
had no objection, believing it woul d |
carry guarantee of peace at home
with the respect of all nations.
