V REFORMS IN NAME Cuba Not Benefited by Change of Folic v. the BLANCO MAY POSSIBLY RESIGN Spi itd's Failure to Redeem riedcea the Caoae Autonomist Rapidly Losing Hope. New York, Nov. 18. A dispatch to the Herald from Havana eays : There are no signs of the appearances of the fall text of the proposed reforms and conseqnently the hopes of the most optimistic autonomists are dwindling. The fault lies not with General Blanco. There is every reason to believe that his promises on arrival were made in good faith. He is evidently deeply incensed at the false position in which he is placed. He cabled a' day or two ago to Madrid, saying General Weyler had de ceived him as to the condition -' of the army and the government, and misled him regarding its sincerity in promising autonomy, and broadly hinted that he felt inclined to ask to be relieved. . In addition to Spain's delay, Spanish officers here have thrown obstacles in the way of autonomy by procrastination in carrying out instructions to adopt less harsh methods ' of warfare and en deavor to destroy the suspicion of the rebels. ' ' The Herald correspondent has just re turned from a two day's trip through Havana to Artemisa. N Every military commander of a town who was met said he had not yet received any orders re- carding:" the .extension ' of the - zoneeof cultivation. The condition of the reconcentrados is unaltered. Their sufferings are appal ing. To put any one sugar estate into a condition to grind would cost a con eiderable sum, which neither the plant ers nor the Spanish government can at present afford. These delays, it is be lieved. have killed the chances of auto nomy. The Herald's correspondent with the Cuban army writes": 'TJnless General . Blanco speedily makes more headway than he has done yet, autonomy will be a dead letter in the Cuban issue." ' " , General Pedro Betancourt, chief of the insurgent army in Matanzas province and an intimate friend of .General Go mez, writes from the field under date of November 11 : - .- "Notwithstanding this, you may rest assured that all patriotic men in Cuba are determined and in a condition never to surrender to the Spanish flag. Such is the resolution of the liberating army . known already to all the nations through out the world, and yon may therefore ' give to this expression the utmost pub licity." - . -.. .- - Tale Is Not Credited. New York, Nov. 18. A dispatch to " the? World from Paris says : ' Paris is in a condition of high excite' ment over the Dreytus - mystery, and even if the authorities had any notion of smothering the scandal, it would now be impossible. Public opinion demands instant action of some kind, and it is ex pected that the ministry will be com pelled to bow to its impatience.

His statement that he can give no clew whatever to the identity of the veil ed. lady' who volunteered an assignation with ; him and handed him a letter clynching the Dreyfus' guilt is regarded as very dubious. Why this alleged lady should interest herself in his behalf, and why he, knowing the supreme import ance of ascertaining her identity, should have failed to make any effort to ascer tain it, are questions that are being asked with many skeptical beadshakes. Esterhazy's tale may be true, but if so, it is one of the caees in which truth is stranger than fiction.

Captain -Hewea, said to be - one el, the twenty men who are raising a colony of boomers to take the Wichita 'mountain country by etorm, announces that be has already enlisted nearly one hundred men in Wichita and surrounding towns. He is a forceful talker and carries samples of the Wichita mountain mineral with him to reinforce his arguments. He claims to have at his command now in Okla homa and Southwest Kansas 5,003 men who will "move upon the reservation at a word. ' ' The. Wichita mountains lie in the Ki owa and Comanche Indian country, and in Green county, Oklahoma. Along in the '60s these Indiana were given this land to hold until October, 1897. When the country is really opened there will be inaugurated a period of excitement unprecedented in the Southwest. The mineral is there, and there will be a rash.
