$ HAVANA, April 118.-Captain Cen
eral Martinez de Campos has issued
from Santiago de Cuba a proclama-
ton offering pardon to all insur-
gents, with the exception of the lead-'
ers, who will lay down their arms
and surrender. He has made prep
arations to immediately pursue the
members of the bands who refuse
to come in under the proclamation,
and the warfare against them will
be waged vigorously. 1t is stated
here that some of the: insurgent
bands have taken to torturing help
less residents of the country dis
tricts who have incurred their dis
pleasure. At BlanquiZal, near Man
Laureda was surprised at night by
Maceo's band. He was cruelty tor
tured and horribly mutilated, after
which he was led to a tree, where
he WAS left for buzZards to eat.
Manuel Iglesia, a grocer of Bueyic-
to, Manuel Rietos and an old man
named Vicalna, who fought against
the rebels in the last revolution,
have been murdered by rowing in:
surgents. The town of Palma Zori-i
ana, province of Santiago de Cuba.
was attack ed by insurgents, who.
were repelled and pursued by a.
body of troops. The rebels found ref
uge in the mountains. The troops
discovered the place where their
camp had been located and found a
dead, rebel in. it. A number of
weapons were captured. Evidence
confirming the report of the death of
the rebel chief Manofrita was
found. Three of the government
forces were wounded in consequence
of not carrying out the orders that
had been given them. The captain
general. has sent a colonel to Spain.
Senior Dupuy de LONE, the newly
appointed minister to the United
States, arrived at o'clock this even
ing. 1t is expected that he will pro-
ceed for New York on Saturday. after
investigating the Allianca affair. Pri-
vate adviceS from the province of
Santiago de Cuba show that forces of
the insurgents do not amount to nearly
the number claimed by the rebels.
Among the leaders of the yarious
bands are: Emilio Giral, white man.
who commands 200 men; Alfonso Com
let, mulatto, 500; Bernardo Camaeho.

do Dominique, white, 200; Victoriana
H1errezuelo, mulatto, 200; Quintin BAN
dera, negro, 1000, and Perico Peri

this number 1900 are said to be armed
with rlHes, while the others use shot
guns and machetes as weapons. The
rebels do not possess a single piece OF
artillery.
Considerable excitement has been
caused by the fact that the rebels are
again resorting to the incendiary tac-
tlcs that caused such enormous losses
10 the planters during the las. insur-
rectlon. The central plantation, Dos
amigos 1.-TWO frfends), the property of
oenor Nicolas Castano, situated on the
coast near Manzanillo, has been burnes3

wees do not show whether the machin-
cry OF the plantation was DESTROYED.
should the rebels burn many of them
the loss would be enormous.
1t is stated on good authority that
the troops commanded by Col. Santo-
Glide have cooped up band of in
surgents In the mountains in the PROV
mce of Santiago de Cuba and that
their capture is only Il question of
time. The rebels are making a stout
defense and a very hot fire is being
exchanged.
