CUBANS TAKE EXCEPTIONS.
GOMEZ ASKED TO EXPLAIN.
Secret Meeting Of the Cuban Assembly
Was Held-American Authorities wait
ON Washington--Gomes Will Give the
People Chance to Greet Him.

Havana, Feb. 9.--It is reported that a
secret meeting Of the executive committee
OF the Cuban assembly has decided that
the committee will not wlcome Gomez
to this city. 1t will not be present when
he arrives in Havana, and, further, if Go.
mez does not 60 before this committee
and explain his reasons for accepting the
propositions of Mr.. Porter, the represen.
tative Of President Mckinley, without
consulting the committee, he will be
officially notified, on the part of the COM
mittee, to appear before it and explain
his conduct.
The American military authorities can
not go beyond the consent of Washington
but there is no limitation on what the
Cuban assembly may pledge itself to do
when an independent government is es-
tablished.
The insurgent leaders, who threaten to
oppose Gomez, are becoming more moder-
ate. Gomez will leave Remedies and will
give to the people Of the country chance
to greet him. Great Preparations are be-
ing made everywhere for his reception.
He will wait until his popularity has been
demonstrated and then declare his pro.
gram, leaving the Cuban assembly to ac-
cept or reject it.
