Gomez Heads to Havana Amid Settlement Talks

General Gomez will travel to Havana this week to meet Senator Proctor as Cuba debates accepting an 8 million dollar settlement with the United States and disbanding insurgent troops. Public sentiment leans toward peaceful industry while Gomez seeks to influence the assembly and gain broad support from radicals and moderates alike. Quesada tours Matanzas praising McKinley and backing the 3 million settlement, aiming to outpace dissident leaders and press plans for future visits.

Cuban insurgent loan plan and Gomez arrival amid unrest

General Brooke’s advisory cabinet backs a plan for a fixed loan to settle insurgents’ pay, proposing a $7,000,000 loan plus $8,000,000 from the United States. The move aims to fund officers and men for one year. Gomez, departing Rémedios, intends to let the people welcome him before outlining his program. Cuban assembly may pledge actions after independence, while some insurgent leaders soften stance. Strikes for higher wages continue in Havana with restoration of prewar pay in some cases. A secret exec meeting in Havana contemplates Gomez’s reception and potential explanation to the committee for accepting Porter’s propositions. In other notes, Rev. Quinlan dies in Galveston, shipbuilder William Laid dies in Liverpool, and a major hotel and depot fire in Winnipeg causes large losses.
