NoNSs
PHILADELPHIA. Pa, Jan. e-Ben-
jamin johnson. resident partner Of the
New York banking and brokerage firm
OF Kendall & whitloch. has disappeared
from the city. The last seen OF him
was on Tuesday afternoon. An inyes-
tlgatIon OF the books OF the Philadel-
phIn branch has developed irregulari-
ties in Johnson's accounts.
The following statement was given
out this afternoon by Mr.. Kendall, the
senior member OF the firm:
''AIr. johnson left the Philadelphia
office at 2:i5 p. M, on the seventh in
slant, and has not been heard from
since. The accounts which were under
Afr. Johuson's charge show many ir-
reRularities for which he Is response
BILE, but the Arm proposes TO protect
their customers. and the business VIII
be continued MS usual
''The firm itself is in very strong
position financially, and is well able to
stand whatever losses may be involved
In the irregularities referred to. There
is very little doubt that johnson had
lost n great deal of money through
speculation on his own account, and 1t
Is presumed that II was this that led to
the Irregularities and TO his subsequent
hurried night"
johnson was well known In financial
circles. He was at one time n member

HAVANA, Jan. 0.-The insurgents
according to the advices from the front
to-day, are still moving in the province
Of Pinar del Rio. and as they are keep
ing near the coast It Is believed they
are awaiting the arrival Of an expedl-
ton having with it inrge supply of
ammunition. arms, etc.
The column Of Spanish troops conn
manded by Gen. Prat Is reported TO be
continuing the pursuit OF the insur-
gents under Generals Maceo, Zayas.
Miro and one of the NuneZ brothers.
This force is said to have passed by
PalomIno. following the coast line in
the direction OF Mount Guanajny.
The Spanish troops have been adj
Yanced TO positions on Mounts Bara-
Goa, Valenciano. Gown, Central Lula
md Marneyes, in the direction OF Banes.
The Insurgents. In retreaung. left
eight killed and thirty-two firearms
behind them.
The owner Of the plantation Of Santa
Lucia claims that the insurgents are
carrying with them l20 wounded men,
among whom is the leader Miro.
In n skirmlsh between the insurgent
cavalry and the Spanish troops In pur.
suit OF the enemy three officers ana
seYen soldiers were wounded.
At the Central plantation Of Espe-
rama only 1--WE men and not fifteen. as
previously reported. surrendered TO the
Insurgents after having been surprised
by overwhelming numbers.
A band OF insurgents under Manuel
SaHcheZ has attacked the troops who
were engaged In repairing the telegraph
lines at Navajas. The soldiers, who
were commanded By Captain Rabadan,
repelled the attack and the insurgents
left five killed upon the field and had
two wounded. Among the latter was
their leader. Sanchez, who was hit by
two mauser bullets.
The column OF troops commanded by
Colonel Molina, in the district OF Al
fonso Mi province Of Matanzns, have
captured an ilsurgent position on
Mount Mnnjulri at the point OF tho
bayonet. The engagement lasted four
hours. during all OF which time the
Spnninrds used the bayonet. They
captured the isurEent camp, thirty sets
OF arms and much ammunition, sup
piles. medicines and an lnsurgent ban
ner. The Insurgents left fifteen killed
on the mountain and retreated with
many wounded. partly In the direction
of CIenGa and others in the direction
OF the province OF Havana. The troops
had two officers and twelve soldiers
wounded.
a dispatch from Santa de Cuba, cap
ltol OF the province OF that name. says
the insurgents have burned the houses,
machinery and plantation Of MeJorana,
near Dos caminos, that province.
The news published in New York, via
FioriGa, that the insurgents have cap
tured seventeen forts and that 200 sol
dIers have deserted TO the enemy is not
true. The Insurgents have not been
able to capture one fort, It is officially
asserted.
News has been received that Maxine
Gomez with 1000 OF the insurgent
forces has again passed the plantation
OF San Antonio, and the towns OF AL
quIZar and Gulra Meleaa- Gomez Is
therefore wen -sut OF the region IN the

Later reports show that there were no

the crew, consisting OF three men, went
down in the wreck.
The bridge that collapsed was a frail
