o! establishing the republic OF Cuba by peace
full means in accordance with the American
plan OF government. He says that these are

Sehor Nolasco. GomeZ's SECRETARY. says that

to-day to dissolve the Iunta OF Cuban Generals.
but the Generals did not attend. believing that
Gen. Gomez would still be confined to his room
by his sickness. The junta will probably be
dissolved next week.
One paragraph OF Gen. Gomez's manifesto
says:
We all hoped. when fighting. for the inter-
vention OF foreign nation to end the war. In
tervention came when the war was most des-
perate, and it's result was the immediate ex-
pulsion OF the depressing power: but another
result was a military occupation which we did
not expect and which placed us In an inferior
condition to our allies. But that is not our ulti-
mate fate. After shedding so much blood and
making so many sacrifices for our indepen-
dence we will have 1t. Let us unite to obtain it
by all peaceful means. Let us help the Ameri-
cans in their work OF reconstruction and Of
preparing the country for its freedom"

WARNING TO DISTRICT ATTORNEY.
Contempt of the Mazet Committee Must De
Pnnished-Tnlk of sitting in Queens.


What Is said in this article comes from high
Republican authority and may be accepted IA
pretty nearly correct The Republican organi.
zation OF tho state OF New York Is becoming
tired OF tho performances Of recalcitrant wit
nesses before the Mazet Investigating Com.
mlttee. Leading Republicans had long talk
about this matter yesterday and the clause Of
the state Constitution which provides. under
Article n. section |. for the removal by the
Governor of SHERIFF. Clerks OF counties and
District Attorneys. was discussed.
1t has been suggested that the Mazct COM
mittee cannot well assert its authority in New
York county. for the reason that District At
torney Asa Bird Gardiner is a full Pledged
Tammany Official. and Tammany witnesses
are banking on that. Gov. Roosevelt is q very
positive person. He will brook no conduct
on the part OF Mr.. Gardiner 1t was said, witch
will interfere with the punishment OF wit
nesses who affront the dignity OF the Assem-
bly, committee. Two suggestions we're made
yesterday in case Major Gardiner neglccts to
prosecute effectively witnesses accused OF con
tempt as misdemeanor. One suggestion was
to proceed against him Immediately under tho
Constitution OF the State. and the other was to
hold the sessions Of the Mazet committee
hereafter in Queens county where there Is
Republican District Attorney. who will see
that the witnesses before the committee toe
the mark The majority opinion was in favor
Of compelling District Attorney Gardiner to
recognize the misconduct of witnesses before
the committee. Further conferences are to be
held over this matter

be suspicious They all sent queries to Mr.
Foraker. who notified them that he knew NO
such man as Mctzger and that he had written
no such letters.
The Metzger letter said that as the arduous
