GALLEGO'SFATE AROUSES IRE
The Province of Manzan.llo in the Hands of
 Insurgents.
cAMPos PROPOSES TO ARM THE FARMERS
Spanish Troops Annihilated in Pitched Battle-Leading Men Blocking to the Rebel Standard-Jose Maceo is
 Very Much Alive.

Jacksonville, Fla, May 5.-A cable gram to the Times-Union from Key West, Fla, says:
 The latest Cuban advices to this city state that an American newspaper cor respondent named Fuentes was arrested in Guatenanmo on the 2d instant He IS the correspondent for the New York World Fuentes is charged by the Span ish authorities with negotiating with Gomez and Marti for the sale of arms and ammunition.
 The Spanish newspapers claim that Callazo, an insurgent leader, has landed in Cuba with an expedition. Upon in vestigation he was found at Tampa.
 Much indignation is expressed at the Spanish government for the execution of Gallego.
 Canarte, La Luchas correspondent in the field, states that there is great diffi- culty in getting news to the public. All correspondence is revised by the Span ish authorities and many facts are with held.
 The government finds great difficulty in getting provisions, etc, to troops at Bayamo. The American tug boat Pedro Pablo has been converted into a trans port. Ine insurgents Cldlfn lhe pldIi VIII not be successful
 All the Notifications around Man zanillo have been destroyed by the in surgents. The province is virtually in their hands. The battle at Ramon de Las Jaguas on the 18th of April, accord ing to an eyewitness, was terrible. The Spanish troops were almost annihiiated. The battle lasted nearly three hours. The insurgents lost fifty men.
 Ex-Captain-General Callejo claims the policy of Campos to arm the farmers is dangerous. The sentiment among the countrymen is favorable to the Cubans.
 The leading members of the home rule party in Cuba, on account of the govern ment refusing to institute reforms, have resigned.
 The belief is general that the revolu- tionists will be greatly strengthened. Two bands of 300 in the province of Santa Clara have joined the insurgents. They are lead by Col Quintin Bravo, a former revolutionist and pr. Bruno Zayelcs, very prominent in the province.
 Jose Maceo, claimed by the govern ment to have been killed, has appeared at Guatenanmo with 2000 men, and is sued manifesto taxing the inhabitants of that province $400 to be paid monthly.
 At Matanaas, on the Sd, at l1:30 D. m., q band of eight men attempted to capture the barracks. They were driven off No one was hurt

JUSTICE JACKSON ARRIVES,
And Is in Good Shape to Sit With the Court on
 inc Income Tax RehearngD

Washington, May 5.--Mr. Justice Jack son of the supreme court of the United States arrived in Washington this morn ing from his home in Belle Meade, Tenn, to hear the re-argument of the income tax eases. He made the trip with but little fatigue, owing to the arrange ments by the Chesapeake and Ohio rail- road officials. The sleeping car on the train leaving Nashville at 650 o'clock Saturday morning was run out to Belle Meade the night before, so that he was enabled to secure good nights rest be- fore starting. MT. Justice Jackson said he found the change in temperature from Nashville to Washington to be pleasant, although to residents of this city the heat today was very uncom- fortable. The justice looks well, al- though he has lost considerably In weight since he left Washington last .winter.
 During the afternoon and evening Chief Justice Fuller and several other members of the court called upon Jus tice Jackson to express their pleasure at his return. In the course of their conversation the programme of the in- come tax rehearing was outlined to Justice Jackson. The whole case will be gone into and the rehearing will include tHe Ol lfle tdX on rents, and state and municipal bonds, as well as upon all other points on which the court divided equally on April 8.
 After the argument has been concluded Justice Jackson will join in the confer ence as to the decision of the court and after the determination of this question will return to Nashville
 He expects to be in Washington only about week, probably less From this fact, although of course there has been no expression of opinion given by him on the subject, it has been inferred that the re-argument of the case will result in no variation of the decree rendered by the court last month.
 The argument, as stated in the order of the court, will be confined to two of the counsel on each side but thre will be no limitation of the time This makes 1t probable that it will not be concluded before Tuesday afternoon of W tuesday. For the opponents of the law Messrs w. D. Guthrie and Joseph H. Choate will again appear, and the constitutionality of the law W, De ffirIneii by Attorney General Olney and Assistant Attor'ey

No Prospect for Settlement.

Philadelphia, May 5.-The prospect for strike is not hopeful. The contractors concede the justice of the strikers claims, but say that they are helpless until the manufacturers grant them dhe contractors) an advance in prices.
 The contractors say that if the manu- lecturers will give them 20 cents advance they can settle the strike in an hour by granting the demands of the operatives So far the manufacturers have given no indications that they will grant any ad- vance If the demands of the strikers are not conceded tomorrow it is probable every garment cutter and worker in the city, involving 6000 persons will be out, and the clothing trade of Philadelphia will come to a standstill.

General Whitney. The loan and trust companies whose managers were so largely instrumental in bringing on the litigation to test the constitutionality of the law are presumably satisfied with the decision of the court as announced, for MT James c. Carter, who cooper ated with the attorney general in sup port of the law in the original argument of the cases, does not expect to appear again. EX-Senator Edmunds' argument in March was in behalf of John G. Moore. the New York broker who sought an in junction to restrain the commissioner of internal revenue from executing the law. That case has not yet been passed upon, so there is not much interest in the re- argument of the New York corporation

A DRUG CLERKS MISTAKE.
Is Thought to Be Responsible for the Death of
 Two Children.

Atlanta, Ga. May 1.-Two children of MT. Scott Sewers of this city died sud- denly last night in a delirious condi- ton. and it is thought that their death was caused by a mistake in the filling of a prescription by Drug Clerk Haw- kins at Ingram's drug store, this city.
 Dr. E. l.. Brooks was the attending physician. He swore before the coro- ner's jury that the children were crit ically sick; that he did not expect @ither of them to live; that they had com plication of measles and pneumonia. He was called and sent two prescriptions to the drug store. The mother says the children slept soundly immediately after taking the medicine, and that they suddenly walked in a derOus condi- ton, when the doctor was summoned again. He came, and the two children died in less than fifteen minutes and almost simultaneously The medicine will be tested by professional chemists.

Inclined to Be skeptical

Washington, May 5.-Dr. Salmon, chief of the bureau of animal industry, speaking about MT. Phillip D. Armour's statement of an average constant loss of between IF and IS cents on each head of cattle slaughtered by his firm during a long period of time, said that while he had no criticisms to make as to the veracity of the statement as far as 1t went the fact must be noted that MT Armour sep arated the dressed beef in the transporta- tion trade from various other depart ments of his business. which were all closely related. The firm of Armour & Co. had about 5000 refrigerator cars roll ing over the various railroads of the Uni ted States carrying dressed beef to their customers. Consumers would prob- ably be much perplexed to decide how much they paid for transportation and how much for meat.
 Possibly if MT. Armour would state the losses incurred by his firm in the trans portation of beef during the same period of time he covered in stating its losses upon beef itself. the question would be SimDlitied

 The social democrats and radicals have been aroused by the report that the crown prosecutor is still after the socialist dep uties who refused to cheer for the emper- or in the reichstag last December. At most, however, the prosecutor is merely making inquiries as to the behavior of the individual socialists. Nothing will be done until the end of the session, if at all. The social democratic dailies say that August Bebel and William Lieb- necht, the socialist leaders, have accept ed invitations to lecture before the so- cialist students of Paris next month.
