The Cuban Rebellion Causes
Strife in Mexican Towns.
SERIOUS RIOTS AT MANY POINTS
Natives and spanIards Fight in the
Streets of the Cities--A Spanish
Consulate Attacked.

SAN DIEGO, Cal, Dec. 23.-The patri-
ism of Mexicans and their fervent love
OF liberty is shown in their strong SYM
pathy with the Cuban insurgents.
Every day during the past six months
there have been encounters in the City
of Mexico between Mexieans and Span
iards, and the general government is
taking severe measures to quell any de-
monstration II hostility to Spain.
In the city of San Luis Potosi the feel
ing runs so high that serious trouble is
threatened. q Last Wednesday night a
mob gathered there, inhamed by a cir
cular said to have been written by a
Spaniard and defaming Mexicans and
Mexican institutions, and especially with
reference to the part taken in sympathy
with the Cubans. This circular precipi-
tated riot. A crowd gathered early IN
the evening, constantly growing in num-
bers and violence until at 10 o'clock 1t
had reached the proportion of a mob,
that swept everything before it.
The mob gathered in front of the
Spanish consulate and threatened to de-
molish the structure, but were finally
controlled by one or two cools heads.
Banners inscribed with huge red letters
were faunted at the consulate, and vio-
lent talk and insults banded. The
Spanish consul was in great peril and
appealed to the authorities to protect
him. The mob finally left after severe
measures had been taken by the police,
and plans. were hurriedly made to dis
perse any subsequent gathering.

SHARP CUBAN TACTICS.
Dynamited Spanish Relief Train tc
Enemy's Great Loss.

Dynamited Spanish Relief Train to
Enemy's Great Loss.
CINCINNATI, Dec. 23.-A special to the
Commercial Tribune from Tampa, Fla,
says:
One of the Cuban leaders here received
news from Havana tonight confirming
the report recently received of Spanish
losses sustained near Santiago and other
towns nearby, while attempting to cap-
ture the cargo of flibusterlng vessel.
The Spaniards were routed, and they
wired to Deschelaine, 80 miles away, for
aid. A train was made up there with
great secrecy, but the watchful Cubans
there knew of it and sent word to near
by insurgent camp. The track was dy-
namited as the train came along, the
bomb causing destruction, four cars be-
ing blown almost into splinters. Tie
terrified Spanish soldiers poured out of
the wreck, only to receive whitening
fire from the Cubans concealed behind
the roadbed. The Spaniards fought
bravely for few moments, but the odds
were too much, and they fled in all di-
rections, the Cubans pursuing them for
miles. Over 40 Spanish soldiers we're
killed or wounded and 40 taken prison
ers. The Cubans secured quanty of
arms, ammunition and medical supplies.
1t is reported that the expedition landed
safely, and that all the cargo was taken
to Gomez camp.
In Havana much speculation has been
INDUCED in today as to why Weyler
changed his mind and went to Pinar del
Rio section, instead of going to Matanzas
and into Santa Clara province, as had
been arranged. The solution is that bad
news was received from the trocha, and
that the Spanish commanders, not wish
ing to stand the responsibility, wired for
Weyler.

New YORK, Dec. pa special to the
Herald from Kingston, Jamaica, says:
Matters are tranquil in Hayti at pres

Politics in Hayti are in abundance on

NOR A QUEsrIoN OF COIN AGE

The assertion Of the gold standard
advocates that because a certain
amount Of silver has been coined
since 1873 the people have no cause
for complaint is one Of those half
truths that are more dangerous and
misleading than a downright false
hood, says the st. Louis Post-Dis-
patch. 1t is quite true that silver has
been coined every year since 1878.
According to Muhleman, there were
422 .333, 203 silver dollars coined be-
tween 1878 and 1895. Postmaster
General Wilson points to this and to
the fact that few silver dollars were
coined for circulation prior to 1873
and asks why there is cry that silver
has been struck down and must be
restored to its rights rs before 1878
This ID not a question OF coinage.
If the government should coin all the
silver in the country and then bury it
in the ground, how would it benefit
the people? 1t is question of legal
tender-of restoring to silver its con-
stitutional standing as one of the mon
ey metals. ,....
When the gold standard men say
we have i'll circulation silver dollars
amounting to S42S,OOOOOO they do
not tell the truth. Maurice L
Muhleman, deputy assistant treas
urer of the United States at New
York, in his Monetary Systems of
the World" which is recognized as a
standard work, distinctly states that
these silver dollars 30 coined are held
on deposit for silver certificates,
and that only a limited amount ac-
tually circulate-not more than $780,
to S6O,00O,O00 at any one time, less
than 81 for each inhabitant of the
United States.
These silver certificates, Like the
silver dollars they represent, are
merely warehouse receipts" for
the coin ON deposit. They are not
legal tender. And it is for legal ten
der for silver that the people are now
fighting. .E ...

tie various schools at the commence

teachers desire to make trip to their

THE Kansas City, Pittsburg and Gulf
road is a new line in the South. and / can
appreciate the fact that New Orleans peo-
pie are interested in its operations. But
want to tell you that there is very little
chance of the road ever entering New Or
leans That statement, | sec. has been
given out. or intimated rather, but the road
is intended to reach Sabine Pass and make
that point its port. OF course, until that
is done, we viii do business with this port
over the Southern Pacific and Texas and
Pacific lines. Galveston, too, Will be Il
port very convenient to us.
Il was in Galveston last week and WAS
very much surprised to see SO many large
steamers there. We Will do a great deal
OF grain business through there, and also
through this port. We have a close con-
Meeting line into Galveston with the Hous-
ton East and West Texas. and also via
Beaumont over the Gulf and Interstate
road But New Orleans, on account OF the
excellent grain facilities possessed here
viii doubtless be found much more to CTR
advantage"
when will the road be completed into

why, the work on the southern division
is great deal easier than elsewhere along
the line, and We will have 1t completed in
several months. The connections across
