CUBA'S NEW REVOLUTION.
Conflicting Reports as to The Success
Of The Movement.

Havana Papers Claim That the Men
Implicated in 1t are Already Suing
for Amnesty-The Outbreak Inaugu-
rated by 25 Men, Who Gave Battle
to the Civic Guards at Las Cruces.
New York, Nov l0.-A special to the
Herald from Key West, Fla, says:
News brought by steamer from Havana
last night, has cheered the hearts Of the
Cuban reyolutionists here, who declare
that their cause has received fresh i'm
petus. The present movement in Cuba is
evidently an outgrOwth of plans Matched
by leaders here, who have been since the
last fiasco endeavoring TO incite another
insurrecton.
One of the emissaries recently sent to
Cuba, returned last night He reports
that an uprising took place Saturday
night in the jurisdiction of Cienfuegos, in
the province OF Santa Clara.
STARTED BY TWENTY-FIVE MEN.
"About twenty-five men under the Lead
ership of Gen. Esquierro, raised the cry
Cuba libre' near the town of Las Cruces,
where they had an engagement with the
civil guards. The revolutionists took
possession of the guard house. capturing
more than 100 stands Of arms. They then
procured horses and proceeded to the
town of Blacetts, being reinforced by sew
eral hundred men. Several engagements
have taken place between the insurgents
and government troops, and a number Of
men have been killed on both sides
CONFIRMED BY HAVANA PAPERS
Havana papers received here confirm
the story Of the outbreak and while at
taching little Importance TO the uprising,
show that the authorities were taking ac-
tive measures TO suppress il by coneen-
trattng all their available forces in that
locality.
Communication was seriously inter-
rupted by the insurgents cutting all the
telegraph and telephone wires, but it has
been restored
Late reports show that several lead
ers, including Esquierre. with their follow
ers, have surrendered, asking amnesty.
Others have retreated to the mountains
to avoid capture. 1t is evident that the
present uprising will have an ending SINH
lar to that of last spring"

REVISION OF THE TARIFF.
The New Bill Almost Ready to Bt
Given Out-The Income Tax.

GlVen OuC-ADS income Tax.
Washington, Nov. 1O-Ten days, or a
fortnight, will probably see the new
democratic tariff bill given to the public.
The democratic members of the ways and
means committee have not yet made their
final revision of any of the schedules, but
a number Of them are decided upon for
all practical purposes, and will not be
changed, except in minor details. The
policy of a revenue tariff will be pretty
closely adhered to in dealing with raw
materials and partially manufactured
goods, and considerable cuts will be made
on finished products.
TO STAND BY THE PLATFORM.
The democratic members decided at
the outset that they would accept the de-
claration Of the Chicago platform, regard
ing the legislation of the last congress, as
their rule of action. That platform de-
clared that the party endorse the efforts
made by the democrats of the present
congress to modify its most oppressive
features in the direction Of free raw ma
terials, and cheaper manufactured goods
tnaU enter into general consumption -
There are reasons for saying therefore,
that the democratic members under this
provision, will embody in the bill substan-
italy all the pony tariff bills which
passed the House in the F'ifty-second
congress, providing separately for free
wool and reduced duties on woolen goods
free silver ores, reduced duties on tin
plate, free cotton. bagging and free tin.
THE INCOME THA SCHEME.
The threatened deficit in the revenue
will be met by an income tax. if some Of
the democratic members of the House,
who are urging the proposition, are to be
believed. The pressure has been strong
TO impose a moderate tax on incomes
above $500, in preference TO putting du-
ties back on tea, coffee or sugar The
exact rate of the income tax has not been
determined, but it will applp to all in
comes above the amount named, with Ger
tain allowances for house rent and for
losses through fire or other causes.
AN IMMENSE REVENUE EXPEOTED
1t is calculated that an immense revenue
can be derived from a very small tax upon
the incomes earned by professional and
business men throughout the country. and
this Will equalize the disproportionate
burden imposed upon the poor by some Of
the tariff duties. The adoption of the
income tax will practically settle the
question Of increases in the internal rev
enue taxes on whisky beer and tobacco
1t is possible that very small increase
will be made on whisky, but the rates on
tobacco are likely to be left untouched

OUR esteemed contemporary, the

defend Mr.. Nordhoff Is campaign
of lies, says the annexation news
papers have not refuted in detail
that gentleman's untruthful state
ments. Quite Right. Thus far we
have entered a general denial, and
have been depending upon the
Bulletin and Mr.. Nordhoff for speci-
fc refutations, which have been
published daily in the royalist Or
gan over Mr.. Nordhoff IS signature.
In fact his latest apology, to Messrs,
T. F. Lansing and F. w. McChes-
ney, was published just beneath
the plea of the Bulletin mentioned
above. Have patience, good neigh
Dor, and when Mr.. Nordhoff gets
out of the hands of his friends the
annexationists will aid him in re-
futing further details. Perhaps he
will receive aid in this direction
during the day.
