THEY KEEP HAVANA UNEASY.
Rebels Thought to be Operating Under
the Authorities Noses.


Key West. Fla, April IRE ports
from Havana indicate that an uneasy
feeling prevails in official circles of that
city owing to occurrences near by.

was made by rebel SympathiZerS to
blow up the st. John Powder maya

most in the shadow of Castillo del
Moro, and within sight of the COVER
nors palace across the harbor. Shortly
after o'clock the outpost pickets
about the powder magazine heard, or
saw, party of about fifteen approach
ing cautiously. The picket shouted the
"allo quein vive." This was answered
by a volley of shots. Soldiers from
the fortress pursued the party which
fed. Another effort was made early
this morning.
over 500 troops have in the last two
days been sent to repress the expected
uprising in the province. The troops

There are conflicting stories as
CAUSE OF THE EXPLOSION.

tAuSL OF THE EXPLOSION.
The one which became
current Immediately after the ac-
cldent was that the boilers were
Nunaole to stand the pressure on
them, and had blown up when
thsre was a pressure of little more
than eighty pounds of steam un
whereas they were guaranteed to
stand $50.
But after the first excitement
facts developed which would in
dleate that there might have been
other caus for the disaster. Some
81 the men acquainted with the
Union press think that the ma
might not have been in
proper order yesterday when the
test was made, and if such was
case they say that the boilers
were weak.

apot heosis yet presented OF unaduitersted
Americansm. In him the native stock
was free from the foreign influences and
suggestions which affected, more or less,
the people Of the East His origin was OF
the humhest sort, and yet he presented
most salently in his character the
nsturalness, nobility and aspiring energy
Of the nation He made the most OF
himself by virtue OF unusual abilities,
yet the keynote OF their influence snd
force was noble simplicity and far
