In this context, he founded the Partido Revolucionario Cubano (PRC), on October to April 1892, as the only party that brought together all Cubans and non-Cubans who wanted total independence of Cuba, with the additional aim of helping also from Puerto Rico.

However, the war continued, with the success of the uprisings in the Oriente and Las Villas provinces, but it did not begin to gain real strength until the landings of the Maceo Brothers, Martí and Gómez in April.

In the second, consolidate the war in Camagüey, preserve the initiative and gather horses and supplies, as well as organize the troops that would remain in the province, while selecting, equipping and training those that would make up the invading contingent.

After the successful conclusion of both military campaigns, the Assembly of Jimaguayú took place in September 1895 , in which the Government of the Republic of Cuba in Arms was again constituted (which had been dissolved at the end of the Ten Years War , in 1878 ), with which the Revolution was endowed with a political and judicial apparatus .
