GOMEZ ISSUES LETTER.
Appeals to Soldiers Regarding Com
inc Election.

Havana, Aug. 2O.-General Maxine
Gomez publishes a letter in La Luchauj
regarding the election of delegates to
the forthcoming constitutional conven-
ton which he asks all papers of the
island to print. 1t is addressed 10 the
old soldiers of the revolutions of 1865
and 1895.
General Gomez says in part:
ideas must not be COMPOUNDED with
principles. Honor demands that
principles should be saved even at the
cost of life. The convention should
consist of genuine revolutiOnists. and
II Will so consist, unless the people,
flattered by fine words. allow what
they have conquered to be taken away
from them.
Nobody should be allowed to enter
the convention who formerly DETAINED
the revolutions, unless Cubans want
to outrage honor and sacred duty.
1.-The enemy are working hard but
let CubanS remember that those VINO
opposed the revolution cannot be &C
cepted at the last moment Many
rich and intellectual persons have
shown opposition to the revolution.
All these should be left out Patriotism
has the right to choose the most worthy
mot the most wise-until the republic
is established.
Although all parties may be out
wardly harmonious, still old scores will
not be forgotten. Therefore let the
Spaniards stand aside until all can
enter equal through the gates Of the
republic"

Thousands of Acres Comprising
Valuable Tract in North
West Colorado Pre-empted.
RAILROAD TO UTAH LIKELY
Standard Oil Trust and Colorado
Fuel and Iron Company Are
Interested in the
Deal.
Especial to The Herald.)

Denver, Aug. 20.-Ten thousand acres
of oil producing land in northwestern
Colorado has been secured by agents
of the Standard Oil trust.
The area thus entered includes the
most valuable tracts yet discovered
between the headwaters of Beaver
creek in Egeria park and the Tampa
river. sixty-two miles in length. The
width covered is as great as the
length.
Agents of the trust are doing the
work required and the settlers as a
rule favorably regard the move. The
people of Routt and Grand counties be-
lieve the trust will bring them d rail-
road extending through into Utah. and
open that region to settlement. MANY
years ago Governor Evans had a road
surveyed through this region, but when
he went to raise money for construc-
ton il was refused by the trust com
panies because of influence brought TO
bear by the owners of existing roads.
Eighteen months ago came the an
noUncement from the east that the
railroad would be built. 1t was fol-
lowed by the Rockefeller Oil trust
agents surveying the entire region To
be tapped and in the course Of a few
months, they had settled the trust
ownership on the best Outcroppings.
The Colorado Fuel & Iron COMPANY
followed suit by taking up whole sec
tons of coal lands and it, too has &C
quired thousands of acres during the
current summer through the work of
agents on the ground who will merely
transfer to the corporation after titles
have been secured.

DENIES RUSSIAN CRUELTY.

Washington, Aug. 20-The diplomats
connected with the Russian embassy
have been annoyed by constant reports
attributins atrocity to the Russian
troops in China. One of the most no
table instances was an alleged inter
view with Mrs. Anna Drew, wife of
E. B. Drew, the chief secretary Of Sir
Robert Hart. AS a refutation of the
sentiments put in her mouth, Mrs.
Drew has addressed the following let
ter from Chicago, under date of Aug.
IA. to the Russian ambassador. After
the usual opening phrases, she says:
I'VE have been living at Tien Tsin
the past year, and l returned from
there only last week. Our steamer was
besieged with newspaper reporters up
on our arrival at San Francisco, and
although / was extremely careful in
what 1 said TO them, a great many
strange things have been put into my
mouth by some disagreeable people.
''Z'he worst of all was an article
which attributed to me the most horri-
BILE story of the atrocities committed
by the Russian soldiers. I wish To
deny these statements in full, and as
the account has been copied into many
eastern papers. il has, perhaps, come
to your notice. l feel that I, at least
must tell you how false it all is. In
fact. I can from my own experience
during those terrible days of the siege
of Tien Tsin speak only in the highest
terms of praise of the Russian soldiers
who undoubtedly saved our lives or
more than one occasion"
In giving this letter out for publica-
ton, the Russian embassy wishes il
understood that little Importance is at
tributed to the effect of the stories re
| flecting upon the Russian troops. Were
( it not that the woman concerned /:
DESTROYS of correcting the false reports
no notice would be taken of them. as
the facts themselves are the best refu-
| tation of the sensational canards pub
| lished. with the obvious purpose o.
! prejudicing the American press and
people against the Russians.
