GOMEZ WRITES ABOUT CUBA.
The Cuban General Tells of the Situation
There


HAVANA, August 12.-Gen. Maxine
Gomez has written letter TO his son
in Santo Domingo, which the Lucia
published yesterday. General Gomez
writes freely of the political conditions
here, and assures his son, despite the
no division among the people, all of
whom are working earnestly and or
derby for their sole ambition, which is
absolute independence. He says that
the birth of the republic will come
with the convention shortly to be held
by the Cuban national party. In the
short time, he says, much has been
done by the intervening government,
and all obligations to the Cuban peo-
Pile have been fulfilled.
