refused to make any statement regarding
the announcement that Cubans in Wash
ington seem 10 fear that there is Ilot
whereby certain Americans hope to cause
dispute over the transfer of arms in
Cuba. Senor Quesada absolutely declined
10 talk on the matter stating, Il am a
private individual now, and cannot con-
sent to be interviewed under any oircum
stances"
Nevertheless. ii has been ascertained that
a number of Cubans living here entertain
very strong belief that certain faction
of Americans is SO strongly opposed to
the granting of independence to the Gu
bans that it does not hesitate TO seek to
cause a disagreement with the Cubans
The Cubans believe that this faction de-
sire to make it appear that the Cuban SOL
diers are bitterly opposed TO laying aside
their arms because they are hostile to the
American Government as well as ungrate-
full for the service rendered them by the
American people.
1t is furthermore believed by Cubans
here that the scheme of the Americans who
are thought by them TO be plotting Cuban
independence away is to instill poison into
the minds of the American people, so as
to make il appear that the Cuban people
are a turbulent lot and not capable of
self government and that this is all done
for the purpose of breaking down the
Cuba Libre sentiment among Americans.
The real motive is said to be to bring
about conditions of such an unsatisfactory
character that the island will ultimately,
and in the near future, at that. become
annexed to the American nation, and thus
afford certain monied interests an cppor-
tunity for the unlimited development of
the natural resources of the island.

On the other hand, il is argued that ray
lor Will beyond question be indicted by
the Maryland authorities for murder in the
FIRST degree for the killing OF Mrs. Rosen-
stein. After the Indictment conviction
is conceded TO be a matter OF course. In
order to try and convict Taylor for the
crime the man must first be turned over
10 the Maryland authorities. This, 1t is
confidently expected Will be done. II is
understood that Governor Lowndes. OF
Maryland. will make a requisition for the
man after he has been indicted ana that
