Gress of the Insurrection.
TAMPA, Fla, March 23-General San
gully, who was the revolutionists' leader
in the Havanadistrict Of Cuba and who was
arrested and tried by civil court along
with Agnirre, who was arrested with
him, is said BY passengers just arrived
from Havana to have collected S26, 500
on the Thursday night preceding his ar
rest. He then told his fellow insurrec-
tionists to be ready for action on Sum
day. On Sunday, Feb. "a, however, he
was arrested, and at the instance Of
American Consul Williams has been ac-
corded n civil trial instead OF a trial by
martial code.
Relied on to Lead the Rebels.
1t has transpired according to the latest
information from Havana that General
Sanguilly was not only the apostle OF the
revolutionist propaganda for the Havana
department, but when the uprising came
he was relied on to lead the forces of in.
surrection on the field. Being batt!c-
SCARED veteran of the revolution of Isl
the insurrectionists trusted and revercd
General Sanguilly. Confidence in him
was absolute.
A Traitor to the Cause All the Time.
The statement now comes that the in
surrectionists have discovered that Gen.
eral Sanguilly, for about eight years, has
been receiving $40 per month from the
Spanish government to keep it advised of
any plots against the government by the
Cubans. In support of this statement is
quoted the fact that while now in prison
General Sanguilly is daily visited by
prominent ladies of Havana, that he is
daily banqueted in prison, that his fam
lily visits him at will, and that his son
sleeps with him nightly.
Funds offered Marti by Garcia.
The insurrectionists, who thus are con-
vinced that they were betrayed by : an
gully, claim now to have learned more Of
the collection of funds by Sanguilly.
Manuel Garcia, the outlaw under an
edict of Spain, would have had naught To
fear from new government by the Insur-
rectionists and hence desired their success
in the present effort for freedom. 1t Is
now stated by man just arrived here
that the rebels have learned that Garcia,
shortly before his death early this month.
Offered General .Marti, the head of the
revolution, the sum of S:i5.010
Sanguilly's Life i'm Dire Peril.
General Marti, it is said, refused Garcia
subsequently gave the money to General
Sanguilly for the same purpose. Soon
aftcrward Garcia was killed, and the
retels it is asserted, believed that
Sangu:lly kept or turned over to the
Spanish government this and other
moneys collected by him. The ;nsur-
rectionists interested are now determined
that if Sanguilly is released his life shall
pay the forfeit for what they deem to be
his treachery TO their cause.

FATE OF A HERO.
Thomas Hovenden, the Famous
Artist, Gives Up His Life.
He Makes Noble Effort to Rescue o
Little Girl from Certain Death,
But the Lives of Both
Are Lost.

YOUNGSTOWN, Pa, Aug. 1.5-Thomas
Hovenden, the famous artist, was in
astantly killed by railroad train near
here Wednesday evening, and it was
in attempting to save the life of lit
tie girl that he lost his own. The sac
rifice of Mr.. Hovenden's life was use
less, because the child that he at
tempted to save also met her death be-
meath the wheels of the same engine.
The accident occurred at grade
crossing on what is known as the
Trenton cutoff of the Pennsylvania
railroad. The Chestnut Hill Trolley
company's tracks run up to the tracks
of the railroad company at the
point where the accident occurred, but
do not cross them. Passengers of the
trolley company are compelled to leave
the car at the railroad tracks and
cross the latter on foot to take a troll
ley car on the opposite side. Mr..
Hovenden has summer residence
in Plymouth township, this coun-
ty, and he was returning home
there on a trolley car. When the
car reached its stopping point on the
far side of the railroad track the pas
sengers alighted as usual and prepared
to cross to the trolley car on the other
side. Beside Mr.. Hovenden, among the
passengers on the car, were Mrs. Clara
PETER and her-lo-year old daughter
Bessie.
Both Were Killed.
A fast freight train was approach
ing the crossing as the passengers from
the trolley car alighted. The little
girl did not notice the on-coming train,
and she ran ahead of her mother to
cross the tracks. The train bore rapidly
down and the engineer blew his whistle
freely when he saw the little figure
standing between the rails. The child
seemed to become confused and
awaited her coming death without
attempting to avoid it. Mr. Hoven-
den rushed forward and snatched
the child up in his arms. Before he
could make the leap that would have
saved them both, the pilot Of the engine
struck him and hurled him across the
track with terrible force The en-
gineer stopped his train and he and
the fireman ran to where Mr.. Hoven-
den and the little girl were lying side
by side. The man was dead and the
child died as she was raised from the
ground.
An Artist of Fame.
Thomas Hovenden was one of the leading
artists Of America. He was still in the COM
parative prime of his intellectual vigor and
artistic skill, being but SO years of age.
His best-known painting, Breaking Home
Ties" has been engraved probably more
than the work of any other American artist,
and is familiar object on the walls Of thou
sands of homes in the United States. The
