Rebels See New Republic in Cuba Confidence and plans emerge
Washington dispatch reports Cuban insurrection leaders show signs of aiming to appoint General Katenor as titular head of a new republic upon victory. Consular reports detail ongoing depredations against property, including damage to the Spanish American Mining Company and local facilities. Cuban forces struggle as regular troops guard foreign property, delaying major offensives, while naval forces position near Cuba for potential intervention if needed. President Taft says for now Congress need not legislate to authorize intervention, suggesting executive action possible when Congress is not in session.
