ABUSED THE ADMINISTRATION.
Joe Blackburn Says It Is Conspiring to De-
 feat Him.

Lexington, Ky, Aug. 4.-Senator Black burn made his last speech in this section of Kentucky at Carlisle yesterday after noon. The people of Nichols county, while not strong advocates of free silver, are much in love with MT. Blackburn as a man. and they flocked to hear him un-. til the house was full and hundreds had to be turned away. Nearly all his speech, except that referring to the free silver question, was devoted to abusing the administra tion at Washington for con spring with the press of Kentucky to de- feat him for the senate. He will go to the extreme southern end of the state to- morrow, where the silverites are strong and will make thirty or more speeches in that section

campos Said to Be Wounded.

Jacksonville, Fla. Aug. A cable gram from Key West, Fla, to the Times IInion says: Passengers by the steamer Mascott last night state that the censor ship over the press is so strict that it is impossible to learn any news from the field. The government has prohibited the publication of all news or the reVoiu- tion.
 By private letters it is learned that a hattie took place on the 2Sth ultomo near Puerto Principe between Maximo Gomez and General Mello. in which the latter was killed and his troops were badly de- feated.
 Aguiro Y Agero. one of the most promi- nent leaders in the last revolution, has joined the insurgents with strong band well equipped. Roloff, on the 1st, blew up a railroad bride near Place-Tas and cap- tured a train loaded with troops bound from Cienfueos to Place-Tas.

rbe Insurgents Are Active.

Santiago de Cuba, Aug. An the dis trict of Cuba, after some days of quiet, the insurgents are again beginning to make themselves felt. Another engage ment has taken place at Barre, the town where the first insurgents gathered at the beginning of the present reVolutlon The place was garrisoned by lleuten- ant and sixty soldiers. On July 20 de- tachment of 2000 rebels, under the ieader, Rabi. appeared there and demanded that the garrison surrender, Whereupon the single officer, with his sixty troops, .en- trenched themselves in a church and kept the rebels at bay for day and half. At the end of that time, however, the lieutenant surrendered with his men. The rebels, after disarming the surrendered soldiers, let them go free, but they held the officers prisoners. Then after having hanged five or six prisoners as spies, they left Baire.
 The rebel leader, Rab, mentioned above, is the same who, the Spaniards said. was killed in the battle with Cap tain General Campos between Manzan- illo and Bayamo, over a week ago. In regard to that affair nothing authori- tative is as yet known here. Communi- cation between Bayamo and Manzanillo seems to be almost entirely cut off. and everybody here is eager to obtain news or the engagement. The writer or thls artl- cle saw this mornig a letter from Bay amo saving that during the engagement Captain- General Campos had the heel blown off his right shoe and his cane broken by bullets of the enemy, and be- fore he reached Bayamo he became so exhausted from walking that some Of his attendants had to make litter for him and carry him into the city on 1t.
 Great excitement prevails among Gu han sugar planters and cattle dealers on account of the proclamation issued by Maximo Gomez on July l. In 1t he forbids cattle dealers to take cattle into the cities under penalty of death and forbids the grinding of sugar cane, de- cIaring that he will destroy the sugar cane and apparatus and burn the build ings of those who continue working, and that they will be considered as traitors.
