General Weyler for some time has been
the subject of interesting speculation and
study on all sides as to his character and
as to his plans in his new office of captain
general.
An observer concludes th a t his counte­
nance reveals the real military character
and shows him to be endowed with a very
superior intelligence.
He knows the character of the Cubans
well, the knowledge having been gained
by a former residence among them, and
has clear ideas on the necessities of the
situation.
The new captain general allows it to be
announced that he will dedicate all of his
eiiergies before everything else to the pur­
suit of the warfare against the insurgents,
hoping by this to establish an early peace.
He announces himself an adherent of the
energetic policy favored by the Conserva­
tives of both Cuba and Spain. He will
not, however, bo guided by party consid­
eratio n s w hile the rebellion lasts. H e u n ­
derstands that his whole mission is to
make an end of the war.
He deprecates the idea that he has any
intentio’i of putting into force cruel prac­
tices, such a course being entirely against
his sentiments, but he asserts very ex­
plicitly that he will be as hard and severe
w ith the enemies of Spanish sovereignty
as circumstances require, not only with
those with arms in their hands in the
field, but with those in the city working
harm among the friends of Spain. He
comes to do justice as consists with the
position of a royal governor.
