already made up their minds on the question on
which they are to pass judgment The case is
a complicated one, and the task OF the Commits
sOners is laborious When they were appoint
ed it was estimated that their work would oc-
cupy at least six months. 1t certainly will not
occupy less, so far as can be judged from the
progress already made. The Commissioners are
acting as judges in a matter of the utmost mo-
ment. and will naturally hear all the evidence
before coming TO decision.
The sudden zeal of the Manhattan Elevated
Railroad people for giving the dear public addi-
tional facilities for travel. even at the expense
of 'dOuble-dccking" their system, Is an indca-
ton of the apprehension they feel as the time
draws near for the practical beginning Of sup
plying rapid transit TO the city by means Of I'M
foreground roads. But their zeal Is not unmxed
with discretion. Before they will agree to pro-
coed with the work proposed they insist that
the city must insure them against suits for dam
ages by property Owners; certainly pretty large
contract. With the prospect Of real rapid tran
sit in the next few years before them the peo-
pie Of New-York will probably take their time
before agreeing to such a proposition. As be-
tween rapid transit Of a sort, several stories
up in the air and the real article in ''hoe in
the ground they will not hesitate any great
length Of time.

this evening at the Cooper Union--the first meet

to make an impression on the mind Of the Gov

the bill and listen to no arguments against 1t.
II is also proposed to send delegations to Albany

those Bro0klynites who think 1t desirable that
the delegates from that city to the st. Louis

Record breaking on the ocean has begun
early this year. The ST. Paul on the voyage
finished last Saturday cutsailed her best pre-
vious voyage and cut some three hours and a
half of her best previous time. With such an
achievement before the season has fairly begun,
what may not expect before next winters
storms set in? There Il going to be an uncom-
monty large number OF OCEAN voyagers this sum-
mer according to all the indications, and 1t VIII

The Tnsurgent Leader Makes Another De-
structive Incursion Into Pinar Del Rio.
HAVANA, Jan. 1.-The lull which
seemed TO have taken place in the activi-
ties Of the insurgents in the past few days
has given place once more TO an unexpect-
ed dash on the part Of Maximo Gomez into
the heart of the rich tobacco growing dis
trict Of Pinar del Rio,
The northern portion Of the province of
Pinar del Rio has also by no means been
stripped of insurgents, and it is reported
that a band of 800, commanded by Perico
DelgordO, has passed westward along the
coast In the northern part Of Pinar del
Rio, going west through the sugar district
and by the plantation Of Tinaia, Quiebre
Hacha, to the port Of Cabanas and thence
again through Amiol and San Diego de
Nunez TO Bahia Honda and to Las Pozas
beyond.
When the news of this movement was
received, troops were hurriedly dispatched
from here to Bahia Honda by sea TO re-en-
force the garrison at that important sea-
port town.
There are insistent rumors here that an
important expedition for the relief of the
insurgents has been landed upon the
northern coast of Pinar del Rio. The
boldness of the insurgents in remaining
upon this coast In face Of danger Of being
cut off has been attributed to their oxpec-
tatiOn of the landing of the expedition.
Theauthoritios have discovered evidence
OF what thcy consider a conspiracy to
cause an uprising in Havana and to hand
the city over 70 the insurgents. The con-
spiracy is believed TO be widely ramiflcd
and its discovery has caused grave uneasi-
ness in Havana and suspicious that dis
affection is much more widely disseminat-
ed than has been admitted.
Thirty persons have been arrested for
completely in the plot and eight have been
imprisoned, while Aquillnp Solano, police
inspector for the port of Havana has been
relieved from duty.
An cngagemennt has occurred between
the combined columns Of General Navarro
and Colonel Arizon and the bands led by
Maceo and Zayns at point between the
