The revolution In Cuba Is apparently ended. Capture of Ks-Preeldent Jose Miguel Gomel and his entire staff, leaders of the lusiirrectoH, was expected today to lie followed by sentence of death on these conspirators. At the same time, there were re ports current here thnt th e remnants of the rebels lu Camnguey had been forced to capitulate. Havana gave itself over to Jubila tion today at the roup. All Inst night the city rang with gayety, celebrating the government's battle by which Gomes was raptured - officially stat ed to have been one of the biggest In the history of Cuba. "General Gomel and his whole staff of 300 men were taken pris oner by government forces," the of ficial announcement declared. 'General Gollaso had been In re cent touch with Gomes. More than 3.000 men participated In the com bat. Full details are lacking, but it Is known that besides prisoners, the rebels lost a hundred killed and many wounded In the battle. Among the prisoners are Gomes' son, Miguel Mariano, his serretary. Domsxo Pas alodos and Menclas, his son-in-law and Dr. Mathlas du Que. "All the prisoners will be tried before proper tribunals. "The events fully confirm reports which the government has given out and which the revolutionary com mittee In New York has been brand ing as untrue. It Is to be hoped that the American public will show Its disapprobation of the methods of Ferrerla and his associates, adopted to bring discredit to the United Stutes. "The uttitude of the government continues the same. Ample pardon has been offered and will be extended to all who show they are sincerely sorry for their offense against the republic. Against a few ringleaders will be meted out the punishment which the Judge of the highest court may deem Just."
