Both Factions Have Expressed Their
 Approval of the Notes of Warning
 Sent by Secretary Lansing.

Washington, Feb. 15.-Failure to re- ceive from Cuba today reports show ing marked growth in the liberal sre- bellion cause administration officials apprehension. Minister Gonzales re- ports confirmed earlier unofficial des- patches telling of the dispersal of various rebel bands. They also told. by General Fernandez, commanding more than regiment of regular troops who joined him in revolt.
 Business Interests Anxious. Satisfaction was displayed at the state department over information that so far the rebels have destroyed no property. Representatives of business interests in the island have exhibited anxiety on that score especially the possibility that the liberal leaders might cause the destruction of the cane fields.
 Approve Notes of Warning.
 Both factions have expressed to the deparement their approval of the notes of warning sent by Secretary Lansing. The liberal leaders have protested that they are not contemplating any reign of terror and President MenocaI secretary of foreign affairs thanked the American government for the conf dence it has shown in the Cuban peo- pie. He assured the government that States he felt certain he would be able to dominate the situation.
 U. $. to Make No Move.
 It became evident today that the United States will make no move in Cuban affairs until they are more sharply defined by developments. If it develops beyond doubt that the con servatives, the party supporting Men ocal for reelection, have carried the province of Santa Clara, another spe- cial election in the province of Oriente must be held, since to win the con- +servatives must have a plurality in both. A liberal victory in Santa Clara would have been sufficient to determine the result.
