New York. September 28—01% Jone
Congosto, secretary general of Colin
and a member of the Spanish prose
commission. arrived in this city this
morning on the Ward liner City of
Washington. He is on his way to Par-
is, where he will bcgin his duties on
the peace commission.
lir. Congosto was somewhat relucto
ant to talk for publication. and when
the sitbiect of affairs in Cuba was bron-
cbed to him he hastened to assure the
questioner that everything ”was bean-
tiful."
"Of course." he said, “you must un-
derstand that the evacuation of Cuba
by Spain is a matter of time, but when
i left Havana everything was progres-
sing weil. i do not care to enter into
all the reasons for the delay. but one
oi the principal causes is the fact that
we have over six thousand sick who
must be taken care of and cannot be
left behind.
"The problem oi the future of the is.
land is a difficult one and i have stud-
ied it without prejudice. and as a result
oi this study of years i believe that it
is a social problem and not a politidpi
one. it is probable that there will- be
a large immigration to the island. and
this may assist in solving the problem.
of course. a difficulty will be met in
view of the dangers of fever and the
climate. "
lir. Congosto was asked as to the con-
dition of the reconcentrados.
"There are no reconcentrados now."
he answered with a smile. .
"What has become of them?"
"They're gone." i .
.“thre?” . 2
“God know." was the reply. ‘
“Do you mean to say they are all
dead?"
"That probably explains it. it is a
subject which i prefer'net to discuss."
When asked as to the establishment
of a new navy for Spain, Dr. Congoato
said: "Spain is still a great country.
and she ought to have a great navy.
and probably will. i know nothing of
the plans to raise funds for our war
wsscis: but i believe Spain in a few
years will have another magnificent
navy."
Discussing the fall of Santiago. and
the surrender of General Torai, Dr.
Congosto said:
3 "There were brave soldiers at Santi-
ago, and if their leader lacked courage
be dcservcs to be punished Santiago
should not have fallen as it did. if To‘
rni had pushed forward instead of re-
;trenting towards the city, he certainly
inould have caused a repulse. These
into things which he will have to ex.
