Havana, Jan. 1S.--With the assili >
ance made tonight to. President Cones
by leaders Of the veteran movement
that the agitation woul6 cease ard
the veterans would loyalty support tho
administration in removing tEc faintest
excuse for American inIsrv en1ion,
there appears to ibe no doubt but the
crisis in Cuban affairs has been sue
cessfully passed over. The Knox note
is regarded as s warning issued In a
friendly spirit.
There Is no indication when reply
VIII be made. the Official impression
existing that there is no necessity for
formal reply as the note is regarded
merely as a memorandum.
An official statement was given out
today regarding the conference last
night at the palace between President
Gomez and representatives of all the
factions and the veterans. The state
ment is as follows:
The meeting terminated with
every one breathing words Of pa
triotism. a fact which filed the presi-
dent with optimism because he found
in his old companions in arms and in

might be expected from those profess
ing their love for the Cuban father
land"
Details of the terms CT agreement
reached at the conference have not
been given out and possibly they will
be the subject of farther conferences.
1t is probable, however. shat one Uf
the first actions to be tsken win be
the passage by congress Of an act re-
yoking the annual annulne7s of the
civil service law and thus putting an
end to the pernicious attempts OF the
veterans to divide the Cubans into
classes contrary to the constitution.
It is certain that all those who were
present at the meeting at the palace
pledged the interests represented by
them to make every sacrifice in order
to uphold President Gomez in his ef-
forts to remove the faintest justifica-
ton for American intervention.
Col. Orestes Ferrara, speaker Of the
house of representatives after the
conference said that he was convinced
that all the trouble was due to con-
gress trucking to the veterans by
abrogating the civil service law.
Congressman Manuel Cace Des, rep
resenting the veterans. said they
would now be satisfied with what they
had already gained, although they
still believe that the presidents ac-
ton in forbidding officers to attend
meetings of the veterans was uncon-
stitutional.

Some thought that possibly the
sloop might have broken from her
moorings, but the finders could find
no broken ropes or hawsers to indi-
cate that she had been tied to a wharf
and the anchor and anchor rope show
ed that she did not break away from
an anchorage. The finders therefore
came TO the conclusion that some
oystermen had been caught in a stif
blow on Escanbia bay and the vesse
had overturned with them.
