CUBANS GIVE UP THEIR ARMS,

Then Buy New With $75-Many Things
to Anger Them.
New York. June 12.-The Rev. AL.
fred de Barritt, who four months age
founded the Congregational church in
the city of Havana, has returned to
this country for aid in his religious
and educational work in Cuba. DR.. de
Barritt spoke today about present con-
ditions in Cuba and the possibility of
an outbreak against the Americans.
"lf this occurs" he said, cit will
be the fault of the Americans. The
Cubans are peaceful people, but they
are also proud and sensitive, and many
things have been done recently to anger
them. The Cubans feel that they are
being treated very much as though they
had been conquered by US. At any
rate, the Washington authorities should
do away with the present military gov
eminent. 1t is worse than unneces.
sary; it is doing an immense deal of
harm. A great many of the American
officers do not like Cubans and don't
scruple to let this be known. How
can you expect the Cubans to like
them? General Brooke and General
Lee are liked and trusted, but their in.
fiuence for good is nullified by the at
titude of other officers.
The payment of the Cuban troops
and requiring them to lay down their
arms was a mistake. The disarminp
was great humiliation to +bo ~
and the first thing good many of them
ana with their $75 each was to buy
new guns and maohetes. There is as
vet no distinct idea in the minds of
the majority of people as to what they
really want, whether annexation or in
dependence. But they obtain their
Ideas OF the United States government
from the American officers and these
ideas are not favorable"
