Cuba Policy Reyersed-An Active Campaign to Begin, Washington, July 15. Maximo Gomez lias changed radically Ills plan of campaign. A letter from him was received In Washington. Heretofore the commander of the army of lib eration has waned a writing war. But for reasons which seems good to him, the leader of the insurgents has now addoptcd an entirely different policy. "It must be settled quickly,1' Gen eral Gomez says, speaking of the war. He tells that it is his purpose to force a crisis as speedily as possible. To this end he left the scene of his long delay near La Reforma, on the eastern edge of Santa Clara province, made Ills way across Santa Clara and Ma tanzasprlvinces, and Is now within Havana province. lie Intimates that he regards some quick, hard blows in the vicinity of Havana as vital to the cause, and that he will direct them in person. The letter was received by an olllcer of the insurgent army, who cutne to Washington recently. Its contents cannot be made public further than has been indicated. They are not in terpreted as altogether encouraging by the receiver, but rather as show ing the near approacli of a desperate situation, a crisis in Cuban aiTairs. The olllcer in receipt of the letter from Gomez will leave at once for the Island. He bjllcves the fate of the Insurrection is about to be de termined. The feeling that the immediate fu ture Is to produce results in Cuba is shared by-the administration. Within the last few days three American con suls on the Island, located at Matan- zas, Sagua and Santiago dc Cuba, have asked for leaves of absence. Un der ordinary clrsumstances the re quests would be granted. Mr. Bar ker, the consul at Sagua, has not b2en away from his post in three years, and has been usged by"his phy sician to take a vacation for reasons of health. But the state department hasnotiiied all of these consuls that it is not compatible with publlc in tcrests to grant leaves at the pres ent time. Consul-General Lee is fully expected to come to this country in July. It is stated that he will not leave navana now because of the possible devel op ments. Held Up By British.

Twelve Cubans, the last survivors of an Insurgent camp In the orovincc of CamDanay, reached Rio Nucveri, a little port on the north side or the Island, a few days ago in an open boat. All were in a terrible condl- I tion of exhaustion, as they had been 70 hours in making the passage. It Is suspected by the authorities that among the party arc several import ant revolutionary leaders who have been in New York and who are trav eling Incognito. Several or the party are s-iltcrlng from wounds. In an Interview with the Associated Press correspondent they complained bitterly of the action of the British, visiting health olllcer, who arbitrarily seized a number of Important letters and dispatches designed, Tor the Cuban Junta in New York. They protested against this action, but the olllclal re plied that a breach of the postal reg ulations act had been committed and that tho letters must be forfeited as a penalty. Nearly 80letters were taken rrom one man and there is no prospect of any of I hem ever reaching their desti nation. Murdered by Spaniards, Key West, July 15. Another American has been killed In Cuba.

Will Constantinople, July 15 Impor tant ministerial councils were held on Sunday and Monday, at which an in demnity of 0,000,000 was agreed upon as the limit. This action was sanc tioned by an Imperial iradc. The council fuither prepared a report stigmatizing the concert of Europe as a "league of cross against crescent." TheSultai', after hearing the report answered by the following Irade: "I am convlccd that the cflorts and energies of the powers arc directed toward the maintenance or peace and the prevention of fresh complications. Under these circumstances, it is the plain duty of Turkey, whose senti ments are simply pacific, to put an end to the present situation. Conse quently I command the ministers, if possible, to find the necessary means for concluding tho negotatlons and to sign the preliminaries for peace oa Thursday." The foregoing is authentic, but Is regarded as a rule intended to delay a decision, although In some quarters It has led to the belief that tho council will decide to meet Europe's views on the frontier question. It is stated that the ambssadors, at their conference, arranged a plan or coercion, by which Russia will blockade the Bosphorus, and England tho Dardanelles, wliile Austria will sjizo t lie railway toSalonlca.
