The authorities, naturally, are doing
all in their power to minimize the
crossing of the trocha by Maceo and
intimate that he is, as usual, according
to the Spanish. running away from

hunter may find difficulty in getting

HIS DEATH NOTICE.
Statement Sent Out From Havana An

HAVANA, Dec. lot is stated in
most positive terms by the Spanish au-
thorities that Antonio Maceo, the great
insurgent leader and the heart and soul
of the Cuban cause, has been killed in
Havana province after having effected
the passage of the western trocha near
Mariel, at it's northern extremity.
With the Cuban leader died the youth,
Francisco Gomez, son of Maximo
Gomez, who accompanied the mulatto
general on his passage Of the trocha.
Most explicit details of the finding of
the corpses of the fallen Cubans and of
the facts relied upon for their identifi.
cation are at hand through the report
of the Spanish commander, Major Cru.
jeda, who contested the passage of the
trocha unsuccessfully on Dec. A with
Maceo, and who sustained another con-
fict ON Monday with the forces under
the insurYent leader 1t was in re-
connaissance after the latter engage
ment that the Spaniards found the two
cOrpses, not separated in death, which
they have positively identified as those
OF Antonio Maceo and Francisco
Gomez.
