sPANIARDs DROWNING PRISONERS

A Cuban Just Arrived from the InsurRcnt
Lines Declares That the Victtins Are
Fed to skarks--Reports of luYurgent
Victories from InsurGent Sources.
TAMpA, Fla, Dec. 19--Boberto Solar,
who spent seventeen months in tho insur-
gent camp Of Colonel Raoul Arrange, in
the province Of Havana and Matanzas, ar
rived on the steamship Oliyette last night.
Mr. solar in an interview said:
81 was told before leaving Havana that
the last expedition Of the Three Friends
had been successfully landed on Tuesday
night. / believe the report to be true, as
official circles in Havana were greatly
agltated that night
'There il no longer any doubt that
Maceo il dead. l saw letter which
should now b8 in tho hands Of the junta
at New York from BriRadier Adolfo Cas-
tilo, who is fighting in Havana province,
stating positively that Maceo had been
killed by Spanish troachery. He did not
givo any particulars, saying that he would
forward them in few days, or rs soon as
he WAS satisfied that he had obtained the
true story. | also saw the accredited agent

was dead, but that his death was sur.
rounded with mystery. I cannot doubt
this proof.
"The conditions in Cuba are such that
the Spaniards have dominion only over
that part of the island on which they
stand. This is principally In tho city. Tho
entire country is in possession of the in.
surgents, even that Immediately surround
ing Havana. The talk Of the insurgents
being starved out is ridiculous. The world
may not believe 1t, but the Spanish au-
thorities are drowning some Of their pris-
oners at Playa del Chivo, near Havana.
Those whom they drown they declare be-
long to a secret negro society called Nan
igos, but as fact they class any one as
Nanigos if they wish to drown them. The
victims are taken out in boats, their hands
tied up to their necks and a weight fast
enedto them so that when they are thrown
overheard they plunge head downward
into the water which ia alive with sharks"
