INDEPENDENCE ONLY Will be Accepted by the Cubar Patriots. They an Willing to Pay for It, If Spain to Wtoo Enough to take Advantage of a Favorable Opportunity—Otherwise War to the Death. Nkw York. Oct. 4.—The Herald prints a number of interviews with leading Cubans here on the situation in the island. The Cubans all declare that autonomy for the island is out of the question, but most of them are in favor of paying Spain a reasonable in* demuity providing she evacuates the j island at once. T. Estrada Palma, representative of the Cuban provisional government, said: “To the Cuban patriots it makes little difference whether a liberal or conservative ministry directs affairs iu Spain. A change in government in Spain does not alter the ease of the Cubaus. They are now more tirmly de

termmed than ever to push the tight uutii the absolute independence of Cuba is acknowledged. I believe the Cubaus are willing to pay a reasonable indemnity to Spuiu provided she withdraw her troops from Cuba before the island is completely ruiued.” Enrique J. de Varoaa said: 3 ‘*1 believe autonomy would complicate rather than solve the Cubau situation. Absolute independence is the aspiration of the immense majority of the Cubau people. Cuba needs a definite political regime. Spanish autonomy would not give it to the islaud. The only practical solution of the Cuban problem is absolute independence.” Dr. Henry Lincoln de Sayes said: “The Cubans are aud have always been ready to treat with Spain with a view to a cessation of hostilities, provided the first condition be that Spaiu shall acknowledge Cuba's independence.'’ Col. F. Lopez deQaaralta, formerly of the United States army and a veteran of the ten years’ war in Cuba, said: “I would like to see Cuba freed by force of arms, bat, to avoid the further shedding of blood of innocent people, 1 would, though painfully, sigu and give my couseut to a compensation to Spaiu for the sake of getting rid of the Spanish.'’ K. Trujillo, editor of El l’orvenir, said: “Cubaus are fighting for absolute independence aud will accept no other solution.” Brigadier Eugenio Sanchez Agramoute, surgeon general of the Cuban arfn^-, said: “Cubans are firmly determined to fight uutii absolute independence is accomplished. But a few milliou more or less, provided the sum is reasonable, will be paid by them to Spain in order to avoid a prolongation of the struggle.” Regarding the plea for the purchase of Cuba from the Spanish government, Gen. Emilio Nunex, who for the past ten days has been in consultation with the juuta leaders in New York, said: . “1 can not see how the plans for the freedom of Cuba on the basis of a guarantee to Spain by the United States of an indemnity of S2UO.000.000 in cash can be displeasing to any of the parties, except that the amount is greatly in excess of the true values of relics left by Weyler. The United States could afford to hack up the proposition, because it would have the revenue of Cuba to guarantee reimbursement aud would gain inunedia^ly improvements of its trade relations. 1 believe that, stern as our resolution is, never to lay down our arms to Spain, the majority of our people are not so uuwiseas tc imagine it better to fignt to the last gasp, rather than eease the struggle on terms so favorable as are now possible.’’
