The death of Gen. Antonio Maceo,
second in command of the insurgent
forces in Cuba, has been confirmed on
both Spanish and Cuban authority,
that he was lured into ambush by flag
of truce and the treachery of his
physician and murdered in cold blood
Havana, Dec, 12.-The brave gen
eral, Antonio Maceo, and the greater
part of his staff have been murdered by
the Spaniards, the Spanish major,
Cru eda, acting as assassin, with DR..
Zertucha as an assistant in the horrible
drama.
Convinced that he could nothing
against our gallant leader, Weyler con-
ceived the idea of appeasiug his beastly
instincts by cold blooded murder and,
making the best of the secret relations
between DR.. Zertucha amp the Marquis
of Ahumada, he planned with the latter
his hellish scheme,
"Weyler took the field, and in his
absence Ahumada proposed, through
Zertucha, a conference with Maceo, to
take place at certain point in the
province Of Havana, with view to ar
ranging plans for the cessation of hos
tilities The basis was to be Cuba's in
dependence and a monetary indemnity
to Spain, together with certain adj
vantages that should be agreed upon
for Spanish commerce and Spanish
capital invested here.
"The conditions and place of the
meeting having been agreed on, Maceo
crossed the trocha over the road to
Guanajay without being molested by
the forts, but as soon as he arrived at
the place decided upon he and his party
were greeted by tremendous volley
rom the troops under Major CiruJeda,
who lay in ambush.
"Zertucha is alive because he was
aware Of the scheme and remaineu in
the rear.
"The Spaniards know where the
bodies are, but are bent on feigning
ignorance, to bolt out the vestiges Of
the crime.
"Havana and all Spain are rejoicing
because in their stupidity they hope
that the war may end with the death O.
this leader. Far from it. The spirit
of the Cubans has grown more ardent
and today they are resolved to make
every sacrifice before surrenderinG
their arms to their relentless tyrants
In this very province of Havana, il
which our army is least numerous anC
has the least means of defense, the Gu
bans are operating with greater anC
greater activity, and not day passe
that we do not hear in this city the fir
ing on Guanambacoa. The Spaniard
may treacheronsly murder some of ou
patriots, but no earthly power can an
initiate the spirit of liberty floating
now as ever in the Cuban people"

SPRINGFIELD, Mass, September 25
"A hundred os more people gathered
at the railroad station in Hartford thi,
morning to see VIM. j. Bryan leave
for Springfield. They cheered him
heartily as he appeared on the platform
of the special car secured by the
Springfield committee, and demanded
a speech. He told them something
about the money question and finished
his talk as the train drew out.
Small crowds assembled around the
Bryan car at Windsor, Conn, the first
stopping point.
At Windsor Locks, several hundred
people saw Mr.. Bryan and cheered
him. He responded with few words.
Thomsonville was the last stop in
Connecticut. The crowd was about
equal to that at Windsor Locks. Bryan
spoke briefly.

An audience numbering about 10, 900

Massachusetts. Bryan was cheered as
he entered the square. He was intro
duced by Mayor Winter.
At the conclusion of his address, Mr..

A London dispatch says: The radical

as follows:
alt matters little who wins. Mr..
Bryan is apparently bent on running
every man in America who is owed q
dollar, while Mr.. Mckinley is deter
mined to reinforce high protective
tariff which will hinder every man who
has dollar from spending it.
"Ia the United States o.day, the
laboring man is being bled to death to
line the pockets of middlemen and
spectators, who keep Mckinley and
Bryan like couple of dolls outside a
rag and bone shop to gull the sweated
and swindled public with quack rems-
dies.
meanwhile the attempt to force up
American securities has failed. There
will be- q time to buy, when we will

Tommy White, the Chicago feather

The contest was originally scheduled
for last Monday night, but was post
poned at the last moment, owing to the
failure of the contractors to get the
arena in shape. To comply with the
state laws, the contest is to be limited
to twenty rounds, but 1t is expected
that one man or the other will be out
before the limit is reached. The sport
ing "cult" favors Dixon, although the
