DEATH OF GEN. COOKE.


A Veteran Who Had Seen Service for Iifty-
seven Years.
DETROIT, Mich. March &C
Philip st. George Cooke, died at his
home in this city yesterday afternoon.
Gen. Cooke was a native of Virginia
and was S. years of age. His
career has been identified with the
army since his admission to West Point,
when only ii years of age. He
had seen servic. in every field
where American valor has been dis
played for fifty-seven years. In the
Black Hawk war he was a leading Off
Ger. He was in high command in the
conquest of California and New Mexico.
He dispersed the Lipans in 1858 and
later led a rail against the Apaches.
He was commander of the department
of Utah when the rebellion broke out
in that land.
Upon the breaking out of the rebel
lion, unlike most southern officers, in
Guiding his own son, Gen. John K.
Cooke, and his famous son-in-law,
Gen. j. L. Il. Stuart, he cast his sword
in the balance for the union. He be-
came commander of the cavalry reserve
of the army Of the Potomac and par
ticipated in all the important events Of
the peninsular campaign at Gaines
Mill, directly opposing his son-in-law.

Cuban Insurgents.

TAMPA, Fla, March 26.--Letters re-
ceived here by the steamer which ar
rived Sunday night state that insur-
gent bands are active in the vicinity of
Sante Svirite. Other letters state that
out Of a band of 200 insurgents CON-
handed by Perique Perez, eighty are
Spaniards. The government rumor
that Guilermon is dead is untrue.
Quintin Bandert, with $50 insurgents,
met 900 Spanish troops between Tia
Riba and Ell Cobro, killing twenty-five
Spaniards at the first volley from an
ambush. The Spaniards fled in dis
may, the insurgents continuing their
march unmolested. About the same
time the Cubans took Moron, near
Santiago, obtaining all the arms In
that town. Letters estimate that in
two months there will be rs, 900 insur'
gents fighting.
