HAVE FAITH IN ROOSEVELT.
Cuban Insurgent Leader Believes Cres-
idcnt VIII ACCOMPLISH Pence.


New Orleans. La, Sept. 20.-A staff
dispatch to The Picayune today from
Cuba gives an interview with the in
surgent leader in Havana province.
General Enrique del Castillo. in which
he says he would like TO see a commits
sion of Americans appointed to nego-
tate peace.
II believe there is no reason to ex-
pect American Intervention immediate
ly." General Castillo said. but 1t will
come. I would like to see the United
States negotiate peace. We have great
confidence in President Roosevelt We
believe that II he intervenes he will
cause his representatives to remain
in Cuba just long enough to make
peace and then withdraw them"
The correspondent, who arrived at
General Castillo's camp at night and
found 500 men there gives ele follow
ing description:
'In the strict sense OF the word
there is no camp here. One searches
the landscape in vain for signs of tents
or camp fires. Instead the soldiers
slept on the ground wherever they
wished, without cover from the dew.
The cavalry men did not even use their
saddles for pillows. We were impress
ed with the mature character of the
troops with Castillo. They averaged
considerably older than the govern
ment troops in Guines and most of
them were veterans of the Spanish
war"

Causes Talk. -
Washington, Sept. 20-Genery Fred
erick Funston in obedience to orders
from Secretary Taft arrived here to-
day on his way to Cuba.
No additional orders have been Ia
sued regarding General Funston since
the first one calling him here. and he
will proceed to Cuba with as much
expedition as possible. 1t was found
that he could not leave Tampa until
Sunday night and so he has delayed
his departure from this city until Sat-
urday.
General Funston says that further
than his orders from the secretary, he
knows nothing of the duty for which
he is designed. General Funston is
particularly acquainted with the con-
ditions existing before the Spanish
war, and 1t is pointed out at the de-
partment he is prepared to give the
secretary more information than any
other man in the army on that sub
ject.
Naturally the visit Of General Funs-
ton revives the discussion about his
probable command in Cuba. in case
the United States intervenes and sends
an army to Cuba, but the General had
nothing to say on that matter.
