CRITICISMS OF
THE INSURGENTS

Although no complaint has been re-
ceived at the war department as to the
action of the Cubans i'm allowing Gen.
Pando TO get into Santiago army off,

Since Capt. Rowan made his trip of
inspection into Cuba the officials of
Washington have not been depending
in any great measure upon the assist
ance of the insurgents. The action OF
the insurgents In allowing Pando to get
into Santiago simply bears out the
statement credited to Capt Rowan that
the insurgents could not be reiied upon
