A New Phase OF the Cuban lnsurrec.
tiOn.
A Washington special to the Times
says: The Cuban instruction, instead
Of being against the Madrid govern
mept, as it appears to be, is really
against the Spanish residents. These
Cuban Spanlsrds have managed to pre-
sent the issue to the world in q fales
light. The fact is they are Carlists, and
are known to have an organization in
Spain, through which they contribute
to the Carist cause. Any Captain
General sent by Spain to the Island,
must be subservient to them or be driv-
en- away.
The VIrginius.
Intelligence from Havana of the
shooting of the Captain and more OF
the crew and passengers Of the steamer
Virginius, created the most intense ex.
citement to-day at the Cuban head
quarters in this city. For time there
was but one feeling, and that, desire
to revenge the bloody acts of the
Spaniards. All over the city it was the
principal subject OF discussion, and the
feeling of Indignation is universal. All
assert that the killing of the crew was
uujusti liable and demanded prompt
action on the part OF this government.
In Cuban quarters it ia believed that
the remainder of the crew and passen-
gers of the Virginius, one hundred and
twenty. five in all, have ere this
been shot, and that news Of
the completion Of the outrage will
arrive in day or two. The Spanish
Consul at this port, it is said, discredits
the news, bell ewing it was manutac.
tured in the United States. In con-
versation, he called the attention OF a
reporter to the difference between Eng
lish aud Spanish laws, the latter OF
which permits the condemniug OF pris-
oner to death in his absence and his
subsequent execution on sight. The
men who have been shot had been con-
demned at the Cuban Junta. A prom
inent Cuban said he knew thi- was
not the case with Jesus Delzal. and did
not think it was true OF General Ryan.
The Society OF the Friends OF Cuba held
a private meeting to-day. There were
some twenty English subjects on board
from Jamaica, who were shot.
Union Trust Company.
The board of directors OF the Union
Trust Company held a meeting to-day
for the purpose of further considering

A Plan 10 Dust tho New City OF
dctaIs.
A plan to displace the officers elected
on the peoples ticket is developed in
the Evening Mai! to-day, The mana
gers are present mayor Bond and City
Counsellor Duly. The law OF Illinois
provides that on petition Of one.
eighth OF the voters at the last election,
a city may adopt as it's own a general
charter provided by it, if favorable
vote can be secured. This vote could
be taken next April, and as the present
city cparter is not satisfactory in many
respects and as the peoples party is not
growing in public favor, it is thought
that many would ratify the new char
ter and 80 oust the officers just elected,
after four months reign.
