Ke Tells Why Ile Issued the Order For the Burning of Piantathins-says the Real War I% Just About to Begin and That the Struggle Will Be Terrible, but the Oppressed Vill Have Liberty. NEW Yonx, Dec. 10.-The World saysi Xeneral Gomez has issued the follow ng explanation of his order to burn dantations: o the Honored Men,Victims of the Torch: The painful measure made necessary by he revolution for the redemption of this and, drenched in Innocent blood, by cruel . nierciess Spain, will bring misery tn you. As eeneral-in-chief of the army of liber ,tion it is my duty to lead it to victory rithout permittingmyself to be held back >r terrified by any means necessary to lace Cuba, in the shortest time, In posses ion of her dearest ideal. I therefore place he responsibility for so great-ruin on those rho look on impassively and force us to hese extreme measures, which later, fools nd dolts that they are, they condemn. After so many years of prayer. humilia ion, contumely, expatriation and death. rhen this people of its own will has arisen a arms, there remains no other aim but o triumph. It matters not what means re emoloyed to accomplish It. This people cannot hesitate between the realth of Spain and the liberty of Cuba. ts greatest crime would be to stain the and with blood without effecting its por >ose because of puerile scruples and fears rhich do not accord with the character of he men whom we met in the field dhal engin the fury of an army which is ons *f the bravest in the world, but which in his war is without enthusiasm or faith, rithout food or hope of glory. The war did xot begin Feb. 24: It is bout to begin now. The revolutionary spirit always magni led at the beginning by wild enthusiansi ad to be organized, caled and led into be proper channels. The struggle ought o begin in obedience to , plant more or ess methodically studied out. but which. nay be accommodated to the peculiarities f this war. This has not been done. Let Spain at once send her soldiers to vet the chains of her slaves, now that he children of the land are in the field .rmed with the arsn of liberty. The struggle will be terrible, but the ad will crown the resolution and courage I the oppressed. MAKILo GOMEz, General-in-Chief.
