COMETS ATTITUDE.
Causes a Lively Controversy, n
Havana.


Havana.
Havana. April 3O.-The attitude Of
Gen. Gomez toward the intervening
power" rs he calls the United States,
causes Il lively controversy among pol
iticians here. and even among his
friends. La Discussion and Ell Recon-
centrado treat him as an ally of the
United States and refer to, him as a:
'traitor and the curse of Cuban indie
pendence." La Lucha and La Patri;.
view him as Il consistent leader of the
Cuban people. From time to time
copies of his private correspondence,
embodying illusions to public bust
ness are supplied to the press and af-
ford material for speculation and ar
gument regarding his real position and
Intentions. For instance. one of the
papers publishes extracts from let
ter Gomez recently wrote to RoldOlfo
Mendez of Merida. Yucatan. in the
course of which he said:
My energy. my strength and all my
prestige l am giving here in my de-
votion to the cause of independence
for this heroic country, and l devote
myself especially to the labor in con-
cert with the provisional government
which attends and serves the coun-
try"
a member of his household has Civ
ell the following explanation of the
position of Gomez:
''Of course. Gen. Gomez continues to
favor, as he always has favored. ulti-
mate independence, but he considers a
period of American control as logi-
cal preparation for that independence
Therefore. he wishes to cooperate
with the Americans without reserva-
ton in disbanding the troops and in
quoting and reconstructing the coun-
try. He cannot tell how long this
period shall be. but he would shortly
have issued statement declaring his
formal support of the American pro-
visionaI control il the recent severe
attacks upon his views had rot been
made
The report that Gen. Gomez is draw
ing mp proposal for the organization
of Cuban militia is not verified by
him.

SHOT DOWN.

Negro at Lecsburs. Ga. Killed for
Expressing His Views Publicly.
Leesburg, Ga, April 29.-The body
of Mitchell Daniel, negro. was found
in the road near here. riddled with
bullets. The man who came in to noti-
fy the coroner says that he heard the
shooting at 3 o'clock in the morning.
Daniel and other negroes have recent
~ made inflammatory talks against a
family named Laramore and others,
charging them with completely in u
lynching near here some time ago.
Three negroes about week ago tried
to force an entrance in the room occu-
pied by Mrs. William Laramore. Her
screams brought help and the parties
ran, but dogs trailed them home.
Daniel was supposed to be implicated
in this affair. Following this offense
the Laramore house was fired into Il

NO SHOW FOR DnEYFUs.
Under No Circumstnnces Will He Be
Liberated

AAOSrntSU.
London, April 26. - David Christie
Murray publishes this morning the
statement that he has learned from
trustworthy sources in Paris that the
superior council Of war, including Gen.
de Negrier, Gen. Zurlinder, Gen. Clio
vanninelli, Gen. Duchesne and Gen.
lamont, its vice president, none Of
whom, except perhaps Gen. Zurlinden,
has heretofore been implicated in the
Dreyfus affair, has decided that under
no circumstances whatever shall Drey-
fus be liberated.
He understands, also, from the same
sources that negotiations are now pro-
ceeding between the intelligence bu-
reau and the judges of the court Of
cessation to secure rejection of the
request for revision, and that the
Judges who favor revision are being
subjected to terrible intimidation.
More than this, he learns that ev-
erything has been arranged for sham
trial of Col. Picquart, who is to be de-
graded and sentenced to Imprisonment
for ten years.

suit Of the tornado that swept through
