A CRUSHING DEFEAT,

Spanish Troops E~ntrspped Into an Ann

Gen. Inclan Captured and to be Held

NEW YORK, July 20.-A Herald spe-

Spaniards, under Gen. Suarez Inclan,
have sustained a crushing defeat at the
hands of the insurgents under Antonio
Maceo, according to advices received
by the Cuban revolutionary leaders in
this city. Not only was Inclan's col
umn defeated with heavy loss, but the
Cuban leaders are informed that it is.
currently reported in Havana that the
Spanish general himself was captured
and IS now held as Il prisoner by Maceo.
The battle is said to have occurred on
July Is, near Maceo's stronghold in the
province of P;nar del Rio.
For the last two weeks the insur-
gents have been very aggressive, and
small parties have repeatedly attacked
the trocha, causing the Spaniards
much annoyance. Gen. Inclan was
ordered to drive back these detached
bands of insurgents, and for this pur-
pose took with him 1000 men.
Maceo seems to have expected such
n move and arranged to ambush the
Spaniards. The Spaniards followed
the insurgent siirimishers incautious-
ly an d fell into the ambush. Then
the Cubans opened fire from all sides,
which threw the Spaniards into con-
fusion. While the Spaniards were
thus disordered, the Cubans charged,
completely routing their foes. Cen.
Inclan made Il desperate effort to rally
his demoralized forces, but was sur
rounded by Cubans and compelled to
surrender.
1t is stated in Havana, according to
the revolutionists here, that the Span
iards We're pursued almost to the
trocha, and lost more than three hum
dccd men killed and wounded. There
were II officers among the killed. Gu
bans here also say Maceo will hold
1nclan as a hostage to save the lives
of prominent insIrgent officers who
have been captured by the S~paniards,
and who are being held at Havana and
other points m~omentarily expecting
death.

LITTLE Rock, Ark, July 19.-The
town of Malvern, Ark, at the junction

hour this morning.
Malvern was a little city of about
5000 inhabitants, the business portion

railroad station. All this section was
destroyed, only three business houses
remaining.
The total loss is variously estimated
at from S2OO,O 900 To 500, 600, ouly a.
small portion of which is covered by
insurance. The burned buildings in
clude the railroad depot, two hotels
the bank and all the principal business
houses of the place.
The fire is without doubt the result
OF a plot to destroy the town. The
blaze broke out about midnight in
three different places, and as there
was no apparatus, the fire burned it.
