lou. The general smiled contemptu-
ously, after glancing over copy of an
Havana paper containing the terms,
and said:
There Is no use wasting time in discussing
these terms 1t makes no difference whether
they may be regarded as liberal or not The
fact remains that VIC are not fighting for auton-
omy, but for independence This Spain seems
utterly unable to realize We have been told
that the autonomy offer is an act of liberality
by the mother country to induce the patriots In
arms to resume their allegiance to Spain. That
is worse than folly 1t is an insult to the men
fighting for freedom. There is not in the Cuban
army one officer so base as to accept such
terms, We will not even listen to any over
lures and any person entering our camps for
such purpose will be put to death in accord
ance withmy general orders.
Continuing, Gen. Gomez said that he
had no faith in the ability of Spain to
Immediately plant autonomy, even in
the sections under Spanish control,
but whether she succeeded or not, the
matter was of no moment to the men
in the field, who would continue to
fight, animated by love of freedom
and an absolute confidence in ultimate
success. The correspondent asked
Gen. Gomez for his opinion as to Amer.
lean Intervention and the annexation
of Cuba to the United States He re-
piled:
Intervention does not necessarily imply an
nexation. would gladly accept the former, as
I would accept aid from any quarter although
believe II left alone we will achieve our own
independence unaided, and 1 am loath that we
should be robbed of any share in the honor Of
the expulsion OF the Spaniards. AS far as an
nexation is concerned, cannot admit its pos
sibility. To that proposition make the same
reply as do to the autonomy plan-that our
object is independence We have among us
young men who have sacrificed everything to
this sacred cause For myself am an old
man, who now has hut one object in life, and
that is to see the flag OF Cuba supreme from
Cape Maysi to San Antonio.
We have already made fearful sacrifices and
we stand ready to make more In order to
achieve this glorious end 1 know that the
people Of the United States will never balk us
in this, our hour of victory The idea OF arbi-
trary annexation of this territory is inconsist-
ent with the principles upon which the Amer
lean republic is founded If in the future after
Cuba has won her freedom, and 1t is demon-
strated 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 If an ap-
plication should be made for the honor Of ad-
mission to the great sisterhood Of states That
is very different thing from annexation.
Asked as to his views on an Ameri-
can protectorate over the island, Gen.
Gomez replied that he had no objec-
ton, believing it would carry guar
antee of peace at home, with the re.
spect of all nations, and would permit
Cuba to work out her destiny under
the most favorable conditions. In re-
turn, he believes that Cuba should, in
her commerce, favor the United States
above all nations.

Pension Commissioner Evans Wants the
Business of Attorneys Cut on.
WAsHIyGToN, Dec. 3l.-Commissioner
Of Pensions Evans has been giving some
attention to proposition whereby the
services Of pension attorneys engaged
in the prosecutions of claims before
the office may be dispensed with and
their work done by officials under gov
eminent supervision. Informally he
has been discussing the matter with
members of the house committee on
invalid pensions, but is not yet pre-
pared to outline the details of his plan.
The present system, he says, is wrong,
and should have been done away with
long ago. Disseminating the services
of the attorneys would result in a
great saving to both pensioners and
the government, and liability to frauds
in issuing pensions would be reduced
to minimum Under government SUI
pervision, the pension bureau would
have direct control of the persons APP
pointed to look after the cases, whose
business it would be to see that all
honest claims were promptly and in-
diligently presented. The commits
sioner notes the fact that $13, 500, 900
has been paid out during the past 10
years to pension attorneys by appli-
cants for the prosecution of their
claims
