Insurgents Failed to whip spaniards Mt
Arsemisa-
HAVANA, Nov. 3.-The report that
Antonio Maceo crossed the military
line after attacking Artemisa and being
repulsed with great loss, according to
the official account, is again denied,
and it is stated that the insurgents
upon that occasion acted without
unison, disobeyed orders, made no at
tack upon the forts, and were
unable to capture the Spanish en-
trenchments. Still, according to the
official version Of the affair, Maceo,
the day after bombarding Artemisa, in
conversation with the manager Of a
firm near Mangas, Pinar del Rio, de-
plored the loss his forces had sustained,
and admitted it was no easy matter to
cross the military line. The Spanish
forces are slowly occupying the posi-
tiOns which MaceO may have intended
to use, and he is said to be resting, in
order to care for his wounded. T
There are two versions of the where
abouts of Maceo. One Of them has it
that Maceo and Rubia are in the noun
tains on the limits of Cabanas and
C~ayajobOs, which constitute O part of
the Sierra del Rosa Rio, and another
report has it he is in the Rangel noun
tains Of the Sierra south of San Cristo-
bal. 1t is difficult to accurately locate
him.
The Spanish troops are continuing
their advance westward towards the
insurgent strongholds, without receiv-
ing any assistance from the troops sta
toned along the military line, which is
being still further strengthened.
CAPTURED A SPANISH VESSEL
The Story Told by Colonel Gus Pierre and
Others. =.
KEY WEST, Fla, Nov. Y.-Colonel
Gus Pierre, formerly of the French
army, and Colonel Ortega, formerly Of
the Venezuelan army, with Lieutenant
Trias and Carlos Garcia, have arrived
here from Nassau. These men say they
captured a Spanish vessel off the coast
of Cuba and conveyed the crew and
provisions to the insurgents, after which
they embarked OIL board the captured
vessel and arrived at Nassau, where
they were detained three days in
quarantine. They also report having
been present at the action of Cascorres,
and state that Maxine Gomez and
other insurgent leaders have sufficient
arms and ammunition to carry on the
winter campaign.
In conclusion, they say that the island
from Matanzas mp, is called Cuba Libre,
The men are members Of u special com
mission from Puerto Principe.

main points OF the letter are as follows:

the Office OF mayor OF the city of Seattle.

cluaed TO set them all at rest by the fol-

II regard the corporation Of the city of

II / should be so fortunate as TO be the

the entire city. Much that he has said is
what most citizens regard as presenting
ideal conditions In a candidate. And there
is no man In the city who does not feel
that every word OF Mr.. Blacks letter is

In casting his vote for such a candidate?

The Republican candidate for the presi-
dency will be a man who has risen TO emf
hence from poor boy. William E. Curtis
sums up this phase Of the question as fol-
lows: Gov. Morton is the son OF a Pres
byterian parson. and was earning his own
living when he was 10 years old. Senator
Quay Is also the son of a Presbyterian
parson down In the mining regions of
Pennsylvania. and worked his own way
through college. Senator cullom was raised
on a Kentucky farm. Senator Allison's
parents were also farmers, pioneers on
the Western reserve. and he earned what
education he got. Speaker Reeds family
was not poor. but he worked for a living
when a mere boy. and the same can be
said OF Maj. Mckinley. Therefore. tho
genuine American aristocracy is represent
ed by all the candidates"

The latest number of the Railway Age
quotes a good part of the interview with
Receiver Andrew +. Burleigh, OF the
Northern Pacific, recently published In
the Post-Intelligencer. The tone OF for
mer articles In the Age was decidedly un-
friendly to Mr.. Burleigh: IN view of which
fact the concessions made in quoting the
Post-Intelligencer interview are signifi-
cant Il devotes especial attention to Mr..
Burlelgh's defense OF his plan for build
Ing cars At South Tacoma, and after re-
printing that entire section OF the inter-
view says: This is good sound argu-
ment, but none the less still take the lib
erty of doubling whether it is iegimti-
mate or wise departure for the Northern
Pacific road" There are people who none
the less still take the liberty" OF believing
that MIR. Burieigh's Judgment as TO either
the legality or the wisdom Of the proposed
plan is fully as good as that OF the con-
tributor in the Railway Age.
