UNITED STATES WAS DOUBTED Cubans Feared That Our Soldiers Would Never Be Removed From Island Third Section of Piatt Amendment Provides That the United States May Send Troops Into Cuba When ever it is Deemed Necessary. New Youk, April 30. The Cuban dele Kates visited General Brooke, at Govern or's Island, aud were much pleased with their entertainment. When seen at the Fifth-Avenue Hotel last night, Benor Cupote eaid : "There ie no truth in the published stories that Cubans found fault with the expenditure of the funds contributed to the junta in New York. Everything in ttmt direction wae most satisfactory. "The report to be presented to the convention relative to the matters con cerning which we conferred with Presi. dent McKinley and Secretary Root hue mt been prepared. We are working at it, aud do not expect to complete it much beiore our arrival in Havana." T. Estrada Palma called on the dele gates at the hotel last night and was in conference with them for two bourn. Nearly all the matters which brought the delegates to the United States were gone over, and General Palma's views ascertained. There is reason to believe that the subject of a fitting candidate for the presidency was brought up, and that the possibility of General Palma's action was discussed. When asked for a state ment General Portuondo said ; "A great stumbling block has been re moved. This is all I care to say." What stumbling, block do you mean, eunor, was asked. "Section Sd of the Platt amendmeut," was the answer. "The Cuban? have been afraid of your aruiiev. They fear what some call imperialism. Now, in taction 3d, I think of the latter amend ment, it is provided that the United States may send troops into Cuba when ever, in the opinion of Washington, such action is necessary. This provision awakened widespread suspicion. Many eaid that it was only a pretense for the United States to continue a standing army in Cuba for all time. The presence of soldiers and especially those of another people, cannot but be eroneous and dis continue to us. "Others said that although the United States might withdraw her forces now, she could, under this provision, im mediately send them back again. Thp was then a stumbling block. It was, perhaps, magnified in the eyes of the ccfmmon people, and they demanded that if these suspicions were well founded, such a measure should not receive our sanction. But President McKinley soon assured us that these suspicions were groundless. When we said that by this provieion the United Stales had more jurisdiction over Cuba than over any one of its states, because, in the latter case, I understand, toe National govern ment cannot send troops into a state without the permission of the state government, he eaid : " 'Gentlemen, you need have no fear. Troops will not be Bent into Cuba unless conditions are little less than anarchy.' "The president's answer so convinced us that we could not but be impressed with his sincerity." "How do the Cubans feel in regard to the independence?" was asked. "Ninety-nine per cent of our people," he said' "want independence. They will not even listen to annexation. They want independence absolute independ ence. Now I do not mean that the Cuban people are not disposed to give the Americana what they the' Aineri cuit will need fur their defense. I tell you that if the questiou of independence is settled and all differences on the sub ject are eliminated, everything else can be arranged." "What do you mean by independence? Does not each state of the United States have independence? "By Independence I mean sovereignty. We Want to regulate our own inter national adairs. But our preferences will be for America to help aud support her in cuse of need," "Are vou sure, then, that the United States will giant Cuba its desired inde pendence?" "Yes, I am sure. And I believe that Washington will soon anuounce to the world that Cuba is a sovereign power, and that Cuba will indeed, be a nation b.JFobruary 24, 11)02."
