Negroes in Cuba Turning the RevO-
luton Into n Race War.

New York, March 23.-A special dis
patch from Nassau says: Additional
news continues to be received from
Cuba Of insurgent victories in the
east. The latest and most startling
yet received is to the effect that Gull
lennon Moncada. the negro leader Of
a band nea Guantanamo, is n Of
the few men who want to turn the
revolution into a race war. 1t is also
reported that he surprised a large de-
tachment of Spanish troops recently
and completely routed them. In this
battle, it is said, 200 Spaniards were
killed and wounded. This was fol-
lowed by cruel and inhuman treatment
Of the Spaniards by Moncada's forces.
There was but one white man in Mon
cada's detachment. After the battle
he ordered this man to leave the camp,
saying the whites had failed to free
Cuba in the last war. and that now in
dependence would be secured by the
negroes. Moncada's idea seems 90 be
to make another San Domingo Of
Cuba. His attitude is deplored by the
sympathizers with the revolutionary
movement.

A SIOUX CITY BLAZE
NEARLY 100000 WORTH OF PROP
ERTY ~ SHE
Fire Destroys the Warehouse of the
Western rRnsfe Company and
Partially Destroys a Linseed Oil
NilI-LOss About 100000.

Sioux City, March 23.-One of the
most serious fires in the history of
Sioux City completely destroyed the
warehouse Of the Western Transfer
company at 200 Iowa street, with its
contents, eutaiiing Il loss Of more than
100000. The high wind which was
blowing communicated the flames to
the linSeed oil mill across the street,
and it was partially destroyed and the
greater part of its contents consumed,
making a total loss of 100000. The
wind, which had been blowing from
the southeast, now changed, and with
increased velocity blew for n time d.
rectly from the east. This commune
Gated the flames to two big tanks
owned by the linseed oil mills and the
platforms on which they rested began
to burn fiercely. Thousands of people
had cOngregated by this time, and
when they say the tanks on fire there
was a wild stampede. The storage
building was an immense structure,
15OX6O feet, including the brick oil
storage annex. The main part of the
elevator was five stories high and had
a capacity of 10000 bushels. In the
bins at the time was stored 100000
bushels of flaXSeed. and on the lower
floor several thousand tons of linseed
oil cake were ready for the market.
In the annex the oil was in huge
tanks. having an estimated capacity of
10000 gallons.
When it was plain that nothing could
be done toward saving the implement
warehouse, the tiremen turned their
attention to saving the oil mill storage
house. Mayor Fletcher telegraphed to
Lemars and Missouri Valley for the
fire departments of those towns, and
they were OOn in readiness to re-
spond, but when it was found that the
fire could be controlled messages were
sent t. hold them back.
The building of the Western Trans
fer company was IL mammoth frame
structure. fOur stories high. covered
with corrugated iron. The iron aided
the flames, as it kept the water from
reaching the woodwork. The huge
four-StOry and basement warehouse,
1OOX1JO feet, was filled from top to
bottom with farm implements and ma
chinery. the value of which was about
100000. hi machinery was owned
by about twenty implement companies
in different parts of the United States.
Cotton Consumed.
New Orleans. March 23.-The cotton
trade of New Orleans, which has suf-
fered greatly the past two or three
months on account of labor troubles on
the river. suffered another bow this
morning, when between $4,000 and 90
600 bales We're consumed by fire. The
cOnfagration occurred in the Interna-
tional Cotton Press, which is consid-
cred to be one of the largest presses in
the city. 1t is impossible to get the
exact number of bales consumed, but
from what employees of the press say
there We're nearly 10000 bales stored
in the two yards. which We're burned
ovr. The loss will probably amount to
100000. A great deal of the insur-
ance was placed in foreign companies
which have agencies in this city.
