OUTLOOK FOR CUBA.
Question Of Independence or An
nexation to Be Submitted.
mr.. N'EIyLEY FAyORS The PLAN.
Confidential Reports to the President Re-
veal Much Di~ord AmSng the Pro-
he Superseded by Gen. Wood.

New York, July 1s.-According to a
dispatch to the New York World from
Washington President Mckinley Is
working theoretically upon plan To
submit the question of independence
or annexation to the people Of Cuba.
he believes that they would vote for
annexation. Reports from Gov. Gen.
Brooke indicate a contrary view, but
the president has received confidential
letters from influential representatives
OF commercial interests and from other
sources in and about Havana
which have convinced him that
Gen. Brooke is mistaken and that the
people in the western portion OF the
island, as well as those in the eastern
portion, would gladly vote for ter
ritorial government under this repub-
lie. SO strong is the presidents ten
dency toward annexation that 1t is cx-
pected that an effort will be made in
congress at the present session to re-
scind the resolution providing for
. Cuban independence and to substitute
a plan by which the matter may be
submitted to vote of the people of
the island.
When Zen. Wood was in Washing
ton recently the president inquired par
ticularly as to the extent of the senti-
ment for and against annexation. ~
am firmly convinced" said Ten. Wood,
"that annexation would be carried by
four TO one in Santiago. The people
OF that province and, believe, the
majority Of the other provinces, do not
want independence. They have real
lied many benefits from the temporary
government we have given them and
are anxious to secure these benefits per-
manenty."
Confidential reports to the president
reveal more discord among the provin-
cial rulers than is usually believed to
exist. The policy applied to the gov
eminent of the provinces in the west
ern end of the island-Pinar del Rio,
Havana and Matanza,- which are d.
rectly under the supervision of Gen.
Brooke, is radically different from that
inaugurated by Gen. Leonard Wood,
military commander Of Santiago. The
government Of Santiago is looked upon
by the president as more desirable than
that In the western provinces. Gen.
Wood made u personal report to the
president, who Endorsed his policy and
urged Its continuance. Wood, It Is
learned, made many suggestions, which
will be published for the guidance of
the commanders OF other Cuban prov
inces.
Complaints Of the unwarranted con-
sideration shown European enterprises
In Havana and other western provinces,
to the detriment Of American interests,
have reached the president from many
sources, and 1t is not improbable that
a change in the administration Of the
Cuban government will be made SOON
1t Is stated upon very high authority
shat the president desires Gen. Brooke's
attendance in Washington in the
capacity of confidential adviser, and is
contemplating the substitution in his
place of Gen. Woods as governor gen
eral of Cuba.
