RETURN OF GOMEZ TO HAVANA.
POLITICAL PLANS AND AMBITIONS OF THE
REVOLUTIONARY CHIEF.

Havana, June General Maxine Gomez is
expected to arrive here early tomorrow, and
preparations have been made 10 receive him
with all honors. Representatives Of the Ma
tionaIst and Republican parties viii go in DIFF
ferent tugs, each having band and various
societies will also send delegations to join in
the welcome The motives that have induced
him TO return the subject Of much specula-
ton. Many believe that General Gomez, disap-
pointed at the attitude taken toward him by
the people of San Domingo. has come back to
Cuba to engage in an active campaign for the
future Presidency OF the Cuban republic.
It is asserted that his first step will be to bring
all his influence to bear in favor Of the election
TO the Mayoralty of Havana OF General Alejan-
dro Rodriguez. partly for personal and partly
for political considerations. If he can make the
necessary impression upon the members of the
National party. and If the result OF his inter-
vention is the defeat of Sefor Estrada Mora.
then the power Of General Gomez will be much
more generally recognized than it is now.
Already his friends have issued a statement
saying that early in the week he will attempt
to consolidate the Democratic, Republican and
Nationalist parties, with a view OF bringing
about a harmonious constitutional convention IN
this city in August. The authors of this state
rnent contend that such a convention is the only
path to independence
It is reported that Gomez while at san 10
mngo said he returning to Havana 10 or1ng
about the complete and absolute independence
Of Cuba and that he had such convention IN
view. It is also asserted that Gomez desires, II
possible, to be the first President OF free Cupar
but that he feels that there may be strong oppo-
sition TO him because of his birth, IN whlch
event his choice for the Presidency would De

Gomez proposes practicable. An intimate friend
of Gomez says that If the parties refuse TO com

the political leaders to adopt his proposal II
