CUBANS ARE LENIENT
t
\ Few Come Forward For
Their Pay.
OPPOSITION BEING BROKEN
Bandits Intimidate Would-Be De
serters—Army Rolls Are
Defective.
A special from Havana states that
Monday's events in connection with
the payment of the Cuban troops en
titled to apply in that city for a share
in the American gratuity have effec
tively killed off the opposition to the
receipt of the bounty by privates. In
American military circles it is consid
ered that a fine start has been made
and that the opposition is defeated.
Three hundred privates arrived dur
ing the day to apply for payment, but
though Lieutenant Colonel George H.
Randall, of the Eighth United States
infantry, the commissioner superin
tending the distribution, kept his
office open from 10 a. m. to 5 p. m.,
only 112 could be paid during that in
terval, as each man took up several
minutes.
Many who brought arms were not
ou the rolls at all. Ninety-nine rifles
were surrendered, most of the appli
cants declining to take any chances in
turning the weapons over to the may
or of Havana, evidently believing it
would be better to give them direct to
the Americans,
All day it was virtually impossible
to get through the front door of the
office unless the sentry cleared the
way. The Cuban officers, who on the
first day tried to discourage any who
were disposed to apply, finding now
that the tide of feeling has turned, are
offering all the assistance possible to
Colonel Randall. At tlTe conclusion of
the day’s work there were more than
200 who had not been heard. These
will have to wait until after the return
of the pay car on June 15th, when
there will *probably be extra days as
signed to Havana.
One thousands posters were sent
Monday afternoon into the province
of Pinar del Rio to announce the
places and dates of payment.
General Pedro Delgado, command
ing the Cuban forces around Guana
jay, called his men together Monday,
told them they were disbanded and
ore ered them to take their arms and
go home.
Of the 200 some thirty who were
mounted on ponies, said they would
rule to Havana and get their money.
Thereupon Delgado, who was formerly
a notorious bandit, called upon the
rest to draw up in line and to shoot
any man who took the road to Havana.
The thirty mounted men gloomily dis
persed. They will have an opportu
nity to receive their shares later. It
is said that most of the Cubans who,
though having arms, did not figure in
the muster rolls when they applied for
payment, were furnished with the
weapons by friends at Guanabacoa,
where many arms had been stored with
keepers of grocery shops by people
who had purchased them from the
Spanish guerrillas and volunteers.
These were given out to enable the
holders to secure shares in the Ameri
can gratuity. Some Cubans, un
doubtedly entitled to payment, have
aiso obtained arms from the same
source and are thus able to retain the
weapons that they used during the
war.

tinues. Twelve hundred men, under
tne command of General Jacinto Her
nandez, who were encamped at San

miles from Havana, have been niuster

FILIPINOS LEAVE MANILA.
Commissioners Are Escorted Back To
Rebel Lines Under Truce Flag.
The Filipino commissioners left Ma
nila Thursday by special train aud
were escorted to their lines under a
flag of truce. It is expected that they
will return soon.
President Gonzaga, of the Philip
pine commission, said:
“We greatly appreciate the courtesy
shown us. We have spent some time
with your commissioners, incidentally
considering the American constitution.
Its principles impress us profoundly.
“The plan of government offered the
Philippines seems in theory a good
colonial system. But why should a
nation with your constitution seek to
make a colony of a distant people who
have been so long fighting against
Spain to secure the same rights your
constitution gives? You fought the
same battle iu America when you
fought against England.”
