DISCUSSING RHODES TALK.
Clerical Papers in Mexico Against
the United States.


the United states.
Mexico City March 14.-Cecil Rhodes in
terview regarding the absorption Of the
Latin-American countries continues 70
give texts for innumerable editorials IN
Clerical papers, for his prophesies are in
line with their utterances for years, as
they never lose an opportunity to cultivate
dlstrust of the United States and the
American people.
The Liberal party papers pay no heed
TO Rhodes, who is regarded as having no
special knowledge of new world affairs
During the administration OF President
Diaz, owing to the largely increased facili-
ties for transportation and the employment
Of men of all shades of political opinion
under the government, an era OF good feel
ing has dawned, and the result Is a more
intensely patriotic feeling than ever be-
fore. The administration, while Liberal In
politics, gives employment, even to i'm
portant posts, 90 Clericals and Conserva-
tives, and has brought out a sentiment Of
harmony
The Clerical papers appeal largely TO the
unthinking people and ARE actuated by
motives which are not always apparent.
The systematic abuse of the United States
seems to be directed by hidden Spanish
influences, and by the general European
dislike of American people and jealousy
of their progress, but these papers by no
means represent the intelligent opinion of
the intelligent majority of Mexicans.

Quesada Says AssembIy's Action Is
Not Approved bs' Cubans.
Washington, March IA -senor Quesada
to-day received a cable Message from San
tiago which says:

assembly, sustain Gomez, and are pret
pairing for a public manifestation"
The dispatch received by Mr. Quesada
from Santiago is from Judge Sanchez, head
of the Supreme Court Of Cuba. 1t is said
the course of the assembly is the first move
in the formation of a rev political party
in Cuba, the assembly representing an ele-
ment of malcontents, while the Gomez ele-
ment represents those favorable to the ef-
forts of the United States to maintain
peace and order and advance the island as
fast as possible.
Mr.. Quesada gave cut the following
statement:
''The action of the assembly in deposing
me is in line with it's conduct toward that
faithful, unsullied patriot, Gen. Maxine
Gomez. do not care to discuss 1t as the
assembly does not represent the judicious
sentiment of the Cuban people or Cuban
army.
"Unmoved by any Sc fish interest, have
devoted all my life to the cause OF
the independence of cuba, and for four
wears have tried my lest to establish the
basis of the most cordial relations be-
tween the United States and Cuba. Sure
of the decision of the Cubans, and know
ing well that the Americans will not mis-
judge them from these hasty and ill-advis-
ed acts of disgruntled and ambitious
group, 1 shall continue to work for the
self-government reconstruction and order
of my native country"
