Tho mission I havo boon entrusted
with is nearly concluded I havo at

concerning tho army which I com
manded durlug tho bloodiest war known
iu Amorica I am now leaving regrot
fully to attond to privato basinoss A
partlug word to tho pcoplo for whom I
havo sacrificed 30 yoars of my llfo and

bloody weight of Spains morclloss

upon foroigu intervention to tormiuato
the war This occurrod at tho most
terrible motuout of our contest aud re
sulted iu Spains dofeat But nono of
us thought this oxraordlnary event
would bo followed by military occupa
tion of the country by our nllles who
rato us as a peoplo incapable of acting
for ourselves und who have reduced us
to obedionco to submission and to tho
tutolago imposed by force of clrcum
stances
This caunot bo our ultlmato end aftor
tho years of struggle and wo should aid
by ovory pacific mothod in finishing tho
work of organizing which tho Amor
icans nccoptod iu tho protocol aud
which is as difagreeablo for them as for
ourselves This aid will provo useless
without concord among all tho Island
ers Thereforo it is necessary to for
got past disagreements to completely
unite all elemouts and to orgaulzo a po
litical party which is needed in any
country
We must make useless bv our
havior tho preseuce of a strange power
iu tho island aud must assist tho Amer
icans to complete tho houorablo mission
they havo been compelled to assume by
forco of circumstances
I as ouo of tho first Cubaus although
ouo of our last old soldiers and not far
from tho gravo without passions or am
bitious call on you with tho siucerity of

superfluous discussions aud tho creation

Thoy gave M Loubet a tremendous

tirely to Vivo Loubot and Vivo la
Ropublique Tho president did not
hear a discordant cry although thero
were ono or two scuffles boforo nnd after
ho passed between tho police and an oc
casional hotheaded Droyfusard who
tried to shout Abas Loubot and was
immediately pounced upon by a swarm
of policemen Although tho visit passed
