OF tho Monroe Doctrine.
CITY OF Mexico, Dec. 26.-The press
continues to give support to President
Cleveland, who has become imme sely
popular One paper declares he has
the public sentiment of all the new
world behind him; that he is invincible,
and that he has injected into the
public law of the world the Monroe
doctrine, which is the reason why Eu-
rope is maddened and uttcrs grave
threats, but Europe will find that all
the nations of this hemisphere will de-
clare the doctrine to be international
law. All the leading journals take
the side Of the United States in une-
quivocal language, the only dissenting
voice being the clerical organ, FL
TEMPO, and the organs OF resident
Spaniards, which declare the United
States Is on the brink of ruin, financial
and political, and in peril OF the COM
bined hostile action OF Europe, to
which the Mexican Herald replies that
the United States can, by reimposition
Of the sugar tax and by raising the
beer tax, wipe out its deficit, convert
1t into surplus, and that the Ameri-
can people were never stronger and
ADLER to cope with any foe than now.

THE WAR IN CUBA.
The Insurgents Steadily Gaining Ground-
A Guerrilla Warfare.

Guerrilla Warfare.
HAVANA, Dec. 2G-Furthcr details
reached here yesterday from Matanzas
Of the rapid advance OF tho insurgcnt
army, numbering about $4,000 men,
upon fiavnnn, after forcing Its way
through the province Of Santa Clara
and the province Of Matunzas in spite
of the efforts of Capt. ten. Martinez dc
Cathpos and about $4,000 troops at his
disposal In the territory travcrsed and
invaded.
The reported important battle be.
tween the Spaniards under Campos
and the insurgents at Colisco planta-
ton, to miles from Carlcnas, does not
appear to have been very severe en-
ghgement Cardenas Is n seaport OF
1000 Inhabitants; Is only 81 miles from
Matanzas, capital OF the province of
that name. and the largest town be-
tween Cardenas and Havana.
The Spanish forces do not appear to
have encountered the main body of the
insurgents, Us at first'announcel. The
fight at the Coliseo plantation was be-
jnsurgent columns now pushing
through the province of Matanzas, and
instead OF turning out to be n great
victory for the spaniards the result
of the engagement was virtually
a defeat for Campos, for the
Cuban army pushed on unchecked
and Is still advancing on this
city. The fighting took place amid
burning cane, underwood, tall grass
and trees, and was Of the usual guerrilla
nature. At times both the troops and
the insurgents were surrounded by
walls of flame and the smoke was so
dense over certain portions of the
ground contested that the Cubans and
the troops were unable to see each
other, and kept banging away Mt open
spaces, wasting vast quantities of good
ammunition. 1t is true that this in
discriminate firing was more noticed
upon the part OF the troops than on
the sile of the insurgents, but for one
insurgent killed Mt least 1000 shots
must have been fired.
The Cubans, following their custom
airy tactics, seemed to melt away in
the distance rs soon us the troops got
within sighting distance Of them, and
nearly all the firing was ut very long
range, although the soldiers made sew
eral gallant charges through the burn
ing territory. This style of fighting is
termed defeat OF the insurgents, Int
as they succeeded in accomplishing
their object, holding the spaniards in
check while the Cuban army pushed on
southwark, the result was. really n
Cuban victory.

ton Of some Is depiorabie In the ex'

and cattle, but were stripped OF house!
hold goods and provisions rs well.
There Is no way Of estimating the loss /,
but It Is very heavy. The tie and tim!
Der men have Suffered severely. One
contractor in the vicinity OF Linn
creek Is reported to have lost about
100, 600 ties. Along the Moreau river
through this county the bottoms werc
swept clean. An estimate OF the corn
loss In the Usage valley puts It at about
&, 200, 900.
A large per cent OF the corn crop
was In the fields and all Is lost One
estimate places the corn loss at g.. 5OO,.
600 alone. This may 10 excessive, but
when the other losses are determined,
such rs live stock. hay, fencing, dam
age to wheat, buildings, etc, the loss
will run up into the millions. The en-.
tire Usage valley for 400 miles is
scene OF desolation and ruin, great sui.
fering necessarily resulting, rs hun
dreds of families have lost everything.
Within the space Of six days one Of the
richest valleys In the state has been
transformed into q scene Of distress
without parallel in the history Of the

In that section will probably be able
