CONFERENCE WITH GOMEZ
1t Is Expected That the Matter Will Be
Adjusted at the Next Interview.
The Army Continues to
Support Gomez.

Havana, May 14.-General Gomez has
Brooke that he will do himself the
pleasure of calling at the headquarters
tomorrow morning for a further con-
ference regarding the payment of the
Cuban troops. The appointment for the
interview is the result of direct in
quiry as to what General Gomez in
tended to do in view of the resignation
and non-appearance of all the Cuban
officers nominated by him to represent
the several corps in the distribution of
the $3,00O00O.
General Brooke. it is said, has deter
reports that reach him from various
sources as to the alleged intention of
Gomez toward withdrawing his Co
operation and thus to throw into con-
fusion the carefully matu-cd plans for
distributing the fund.
He believes that the personal inter-
view tomorrow ought to adjust the
matter and to point the way out of the
perplexity. He is unwilling to consider
General Gomez as insincere or as act
ing in bad faith, but the governor gen
in him by President Mckinley to aban-
don the effort to disband the late in
surgents with the gratuity and to send
back the entire amount to the United
States.
The Cuban general Rafael Rodriguez,
speaking for General Gomez to-day,
said the reports of a difference with
General Brooke were absolutely I'M
true. The attitude of Gomez, he de-
clared, had undergone no change, and
the principal generals of the Cuban
army, as well as the rank and file. con-
tinued to support Gomez. as they al
ways had. He explained all the talk
about a revolt in the army against the
surrendering of the arms was the work
of members Of the former military as
sembly, "a group of indictments be-
hind Manuel Sanguilly who can give
no trouble and are not worth consider
ing"
A report is in circulation this even
ing that Colonel Argudniz, who has
been employed in the preparation of
the Cuban army lists, has been detect
ed padding the rolls so as to defraud
the distributors to the extent of $4,000.
The military authorities, however, deny
the report.
General Gomez called upon friends in
Havana to-day and attended, services in
the morning.

authorities, with authority from that
great government of ours to watch
only the interests of Cubans. And who
are these Cubans? The same tax col
lectors who collected the tax for Spain,
the same judges still hold their APP
pointments from the king of Spain. the
same lawyers who prosecuted under the
laws of Spain, and for the most part
the same smugglers VIII Struggled under
Spain. And where are the Cubans we
came to 1iberate? We have seen a few
on the police force, going around with
big guns and shooting the first man
they were afraid of. We have seen
few in the custom house and few
holding fat jobs in the various depart
ments; few in Cerro, who call them
selves the Assembly and cursed the
United States roundly for not giving
them millions of dollars. and a few
more lounging in the pavilions at
Quinta de los Molinos, waiting for the
government to find the army to which
they have promised that $3,000,000.
In the meantime Americans are not
encouraged to develop the island with
their industry and thrift. Capital will
