 NEW YORK, Aug 12.-Many new and interesting features in the fight of the sa- loon keepers against the police which were promised for yesterday did not ma terialize, and the day simply fell into line with the other Sundays which have inter- vened since the reform police board took hold of the reins of municipal administra- tion.

With Great Emotion He Says the InSuE.
 gents Ought to Be Patriotic.
 HAVANA, Aug. 12.-Immense crowds were present at the review of the 1, 300 Havana volunteers which were going into the field The city was gayly decorated, and thousands of ladies were on the streets and in the balconies overlooking the route of the parade.
 Captain General Maritime dc Campos arrived at the park, accompanied by his staff. This is tho first appearance in pub lie of Captain General de Campos since the battle of Perelejo. He is an enemy of personal demonstration. Nevertheless he was received by all the colonels and off cers of the volunteers, while 15 bands played grand march.
 After he had reviewed the volunteers General Campos, with great emotion, de- livered a patriotic speech. He said that the volunteers were going to protect the plantations and property which were threatened with burning by a mob whose only motto is destruction when they ought to be, as native Cubans, the first to defend this property. The volunteers left imme- diatcly by express train for Villar.
 LieutenH1t Colonel RodOn, with 500 troops and artillery, left Bayamo to pro- tcct a convoy which was transported by tho River Cauto. In El JudiO, near Go ralltO, he surprised the insurgents with discharge of rifle shots by the vanguard and with five shots from the artillery. The insurgents lost ten killed and 26 wounded and were dispersed to the mountains.
 Campos Wants More Troops.
 TAMPA, Fla, Aug. 12.-Passengers ar irving on the Cuban steamer state that Marcos Garcia, who was reported to have joined the insurgents, arrived in Havana on Friday and had an interview with Campos. He is not with the insurgents
 General Roloff's threat to use dynamite has caused the depopulation of Santa Els pirita by every man who could bear arms except the Catholic priest, and all joined the insurgents. Campos admits that he has fears of the revolution extending. When he arrived in Havana, he summon ed the colonels of the volunteers of Ha- vana, telling them that the situation in Santiago province was serious and the rest of the island was threatened by Ro- loff's landing. Troops were imperatively needed he said, to protect property, as re- achievements from Spain could not all ar rive before November and none in time to assist in that section.
 The insurgents have possession of all the country cast of Matanzas. Campos' efforts are directed toward keeping them out of the principal cities, fearing their success on this point as deserving recogni- tion as belligcrents.
