NEW YORK, Oct. 5.-Gen- Jose Miguel
Gomez, leader OF the liberal party in
Cuba, who is IN this city. and purposes
going to Washington to lay before
President Roosevelt his view Of the
situation in the island republic. was
asked today II there was any truth In
the report which has gained currency
here that a revolutionary movement
was on foot. having as its object the
election of President Palma by force OF
arms, and that his visit to the United
States was for the purpose of further
ing this movement.
An Emphatic Denial.
He declared with great emphasis:
There is no foundation whatever for
any such statements There has not
been, to my knowledge, any serious dis
cussion Of an attempt TO resist the
present government by force Such ac-
ton would simply mean the interven-
tion OF the United states
Blanes Government.
In speaking OF the political situation
in Cuba General Gomez said:
''AH the disturbances in Cuba have
has no other idea but to, win at any
cost.
President Estrada Palma himself
has not attended 10 my many requests
personally addressed TO him for fair
play.
First there came the change OF
cabinet. President Paima's present
cabinet Is what is called an election
cabinet or. as it Is called in Cuba.
"A cabinet Of force After changing
his secretaries President Palma, vio-
iat.ng the constitution. removed most
of the municipal councils of the recub-
lie who wee liberals, and TO the mayors

orders TO disregard the authority OF the
governor. Whenever u mayor refused
to obey this order he was removed and
incarcerated.

means. not barring assassination suea
as was the shameful murder committed
at Cienfuegos. when Congressman
Enrique Viiluendas my personal
friend. and one of my most enthusiasts
supporters, was willfully butchered by
Palma police.
The administration of Justice with
true Spanish methods has been a strong
supporter OF Palma. and the now gov
ernor OF Santa Clara. DR.. Alhedi. Gen.
erai Aachado, and other prominent lib

As consequence the elections of

imposed by Japan as the terms OF
peace with Russia, where will the
s,upendous sum be raised? The
question would have baffled con-
lecture half century ago: it IS easily
answered now. China in 1895, after
the Japanese war, was worse OF n
nancially than Russia is to-day.
Most of her revenues were pledged IN
part already against earlier loans, and
Japan demanded S14o,ooo,ooo ndem-
rity This is what followed, as told
bv the London Economist that year:
Great financial houses are scra11l-
hing and intriguing for the purpose
or acting as Chinas agents for the
issue OF new loans. and something
even OF international rivalry is intro
Guced into competition. And the
Chinese government entering into the
spirit of The thing. are acting as if,

lenders. II Paris and St. Petersburg
are permitted to lend 2o.ooo.oo
pounds. then. as a consolation to Lon
don and Berlin. they are being given
an opportunity of lending another
/ ! 1000, 900 pounds
In the end the Russian Government
actually lent China its endorsement
on 10000 pounds-a real stroke OF
political humor, considering what has
happened since.
The case of the $1,000, 100000 pay
ment by France to Prussia, after the
war OF 1870, is familiar. France issued
bonds for the amount, offered them to
her own people, who forthwith sold
their investments in foreign securities
and subscribed for the new rents"
This French liquidation OF other
bonds came at the moment when
London, and Berlin itself, were also
trying to buy the new French rentes.
The odd result was that those two
money markets suffered the conse-
quent depression more than Paris.
Something like this is possible if Paris
agrees to finance the indemnity this
year for Russia.
1t is often asked, cannot Russia
meet the indemnity from her home
reserves: She possesses, it is true,
$500, 900 TO $500, 100000 in her
home gold reserve and her European
credit balances; but no1e circulation
Of $500. 900 900 stands against it.
Russia would certainly hesitate to
denude herself OF her coin circulation.
| That plan was tried with China, after
the Boxer outbreak Of 1900. and with
bad results. The Powers fixed. as the
terms for Withdrawing their armies

China hoated no new loans: she sent
on, to gather up her silver currency,
sold it and bought with the proceeds
sterling drafts to pay the Powers.
Within a year Europe'S Oriental
trade was so badly deranged by the
consequent break in silver that the
whole plan had to be revised.
