Gen. | Nunez, of the Cuban army, arrived 1 here last night on his return from landing a party in Cuba. This landing was made immediately after conferences between Gen. Nunez, Gen. Miles and Senor Quesada, the Cuban delegate, about two weeks ago, and was for the purpose of opening Up communications with Gens, Garcia and Gomez, After a brief —_ conference with Mr. Quesad. Gen, Nunez left for New York, where he will make a report to President Palma, The results of his trip are guarded with much care by the Cuban officials here, who deem it inexpedient to discues what Gen. Nuvez did. It is said, however, that his party found no d'ficulty in establishing communica- tions with the Cuban commanders in the field. Itis understood General Nunez will continue organizing par. ties of Cubans to go to the front, and will have command of the united Cu- ban forces other than those already in the field under Garcia and Gomez. ities Soesnemnentiy No-To-tac for Fifty Cenve.
