UNIrARIANIsM. The Unitarian Church

ated, and his evil creed Of the mind will

The Insurgents Advancing.

MADRID, Jan. GA dispatch from

the rebel forces under Gomez passed
Managua, twelve miles from Havana;
They were marching westward ana
burning all the towns IN their
path. They were nearly all mounted
and thus able to elude the Spanish
troops. -
KEY WEST, Fla, Jan. 6.-The news
which reached here from Havana yes
terday is of the most startling character:
The knowledge that the main body OF
the insurgent forces is within a few
miles of the capital, and with few
hours forced marching will be knock
ing at the gates of the city, has created
reign of terror. To augment the ex,
element of the situation it is asserted
that the volunteers are in open mutiny,
and declare that if Julio Sanguilly, an
American citizen, now incarcerated in
Moro castle, charged with melting to
,nsurrection, is not summarily execut-
ed they will refuse further duty under
Campos.
MADRID, Jan. Ga dispatch from
Havana says that band of rebels ex-
ploded dynamite under a train on the
Nuevitas Puerto line containing three
hundred passengers, several OF whom
were injured. Troops arrived and dis
persed the rebels, who, the dispatch as
serts, were about to massacre the pas
sengers.

The Bond Issue.

NEW YORK, Jan. 6.-There is great
diversity of opinion in Wall street re-
garding the proposed bond sale by the
government. The call leaves the way
open for both the small investor and
the capitalist. AS subscriptions will be
received for nearly month it will also
give foreign investors plenty of time to
make their engagements for the new
bonds. In the matter ofpayment for the
bonds, the installments are so placed
as to prevent exhaustive Withdrawals
from the Treasury. The arrangements
for subscription for another kind OF
bonds, if authorized, by law it is thought
will silence criticism in Congress.
Bank officials were not willing to be
quoted although some of them said that
it was evident that the difficulty of OBJ
tanning big blocks of gold without dis
turbance to the financial and COM

dealers now state that it is impossible
to quote commission on gold. They,
like the bankers, are completely at sea,
the open bond issue having upset the
calculations of the street.
