HAVANA, Oct. 26-A joint meeting Of
the delegates of the Cuban National
league and the Cuban National party
will be held this evening at the Sport
club, to discuss a programme for the fu-
ture. The organizing committee Of the
Cuban National party having been dis
solved, its functions have been taken
over by the municipal council Of the
league and the National party in Havana,
which will exercise these until a general
assembly, representing the whole ISL
and, shall have been chosen. Probably
a new name will be selected for the new
organization. Thus far the league has
not made a separate movement, although
1t is known that its members were great
ly dissatisfied at the recent joint meeting
of delegates to select a single prominent
member of the league for membership
on the Joint committee of delegates.
A prominent member of the league said
today that at least half of the delegates
would protest tonight against the pro-
ceeGings, asserting that the powers Of
the delegates on this occasion extend
only to the election of members of the
provincial council, and not to the assump-
ton of control-a matter that should
abide the election Of the general assem-
bly, of the island. 1t is also believed
that the existing joint committee Of dele
gates will resign, and that a fresh cleo
tion will be held If there should be no
open split between the two organizations.
The Tribuna edited by Senior AIeuan,
formerly prominently identified with the
Cuban revolutionary movement, says to-
day:
CUBA is now in the midst Of anarchy,
which is aided and abetted by the gov
ernment of that republic whose presi-
dent pretends, in the name of liberty,
to spread the military supremacy of ths
United States all over the world. This
plan, proposed by the business men of
America, is now being carried out by Mr..
Mckinley. Cubans are not such fools as
to believe that the reports sent to Wash
ington by the military governors do not
contain more than appears in the Amer
icap newspapers. The reports sent to
Washington are craftily worded. They
shcw how false and double-minded are
the intervening authorities who govern
Cuba at the pleasure Of the military
commanders. They have even informed
Washington that our newly-formed polit-
ical parties are not worthy of the name,
and that the men who direct them have
no prestige, but have undertaken to form
parties without programmes
Gen. Ruis Rivera has resigned the civil
governorship Of the province OF Havana.
The post has been offered to Gen. Emilio
Nunez, but his friends say they doubt
that he will accept. Should he refuse, 1t
will probably be offered to Senior Fer
nandez de Castro. civil governor of the
province under the autonomist regime
In explanation of Gen. Rivera's resigna-
ton it is said his nominations had not re-
ceived the recognition he thought due
them.
Gen. Bartolomo Maso will be appointed
treasurer of Matanzas and Gen. Carloff
will be offered a similar position at Rene
dios.
