REBEL DEMANDS
CUBAN rNsURGENT LEADER IN.
TERvIEWED.
WOULD HAVE NEW ELECTION
Gurra Wants United States to ArbI-
trate-WiII Not Compromise With
Cuban Government - Beset With
Spies.

Spies.
San Juan de Martinez-An A5soci-
nted press correspondent spent Sunday
night In Pine Guerra's camp. Proceed
ing league from town, the correspon-
dent encountered the insurgent out
posts and asked to be taken TO the gen.
eral, which was finally done. after
sending letters OF identification. Guerra
said no was willing to talk for the
American people. He said:
II want 1t understood that will not
accent any offers of compromise with
the Cuban government, but I would be
glad to arbitrate with properly accred-
tied representatives Of the United
States appointed by President Roose-
welt, on the basis only of 4 new presi-
dentia, election in Cuba. Otherwise
we shall stay out indefinitely. We
could not trust the Palma government
In any case"
Guerra gravely charged the Cuban
government with trying to send spies
to hts camp, and said:
while near San Luis an individual
called Andres Agramonte presented
himself and stated that the government
had named eight men, whose names he
gave, to join my command. After
much questioning he was released.
Later he appeared again, was tried by
a council and proved to be traitor to
our cause. He was hanged August I'd
before the entire force drawn up In
hollow square.
81 can assure you," Guerra said, my
information of the government troops
is as perfect as that obtained by
Palma, the illegal president OF Cuba.
Guerra is all-powerful at present
among the people of this district. He
believes most confidently that he could
take San Juan de Martinez and defeat
the government troops any night or
any day. He charges President Palma,
Secretary Montalvo and Freyrc An
drade with all manner of official and
personal dishonesty. Until Sunday
Guerra had money, but this is COM
pleteiy exhausted, and to-day he began
| issuing orders in payment tor supplies
on the Cuban government" which he
assures the people eventually VIII be
paid.
Guerra said he would not object to
foreign governments guarantee OF In
spection of new elections, with the OBJ
| ject of enforcing new deal, but ne
would not trust the Palma government.
He also regretted that he had released
Lieutenant Ascuy, who was captured IN
the San Luis fight, since Ascuy had re-
appeared against him now.
Guerra not only is popular with nus
command, but the people appear 20 b
devoted to him.

When Pope Plus Receives.

People who are received by the
pope must appear in full evening
dress, although the hour is usually at
IL o'clock in the morning. The outer
office looks like that of a good New
York lawyer. A pleasant young Sec
retary in secular garb meets the Wis
itors. All is very simple, not in the
least awe-inspiring. Visitors must
kneel and kiss the poDe's hand.
