Wednesday, 18th January 1896,

The Barbados Herald Of the 18th Deem.
Der publishes a short notice Of the annual
exhibition in Bridgetown, which was held
on the previous day, and gives a long list of
the prizes given in the different classes of
exhibits. To us in St. Croix, who are hoping
shortly to start a similar thing, OF a smaller
scale, of course, for ourselves, it is interesting
to read that the exhibits are "now attaining
a degree Of excellence which reflects great
credit on the mechanical skill of the exhi-
bitors.' The editor of the paper attributes
this to the pressure of the times, and says
that "the rapidly increasing exhibits of Ia
bour and skill involving technical knowledge
will 90 far to show that there are numbers of
persons who have been for ced by the stress
of poverty to devote their attention to minor
industries, and who are now making head
way"

Since the famous raid of the Cubans
across the whole of the island last year,
when Maceo invaded Pinar del Rio
while Gomez returned to the eastern
provinces, the mulatto general has held
his own in the western province against
the utmost efforts of the Spaniards to
dislodge him. He transferred the
whole seat of war from the east to the
west, and while his enemies claimed he
had run into trap, and built strong
trocha across the island to keep him
there, he continued his indefatigable
campaign and consistently claimed al
ways that he could cross the trocha
when he wished and effect a junction
with Gomez in the east.
The diary of Maceo's operations,
found with the body, says that Maceo
himself was wounded before crossing
the trocha in skirmish at Vejeranom
Dec. 3.
The afternoon papers are out with
extras seeming to confirm the report of
the death of General Maceo.

The News at Washington.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 8. The reported
death of Antonio Maceo is not entirely
credited here. Time and again reports
have been received from Cuba of his
defeat and rout, his death in action or
his suicide, always to be refuted by his
later activities. There is no doubt that
many people will doubt the authen-
ITCHY of the report now received of his
death, though no previous report has
given such exact details of the circum-
stances of his death or the facts Of

tains in the extreme eastern part OF
Pinar del Rio, while the insurgent
chief has seemingly doubled on his
tracks, turned the flank of the Spanish
general and passed in his rear in the
direction of this city, crossing the mill
tary line at will and probably being by
this time in the vicinity of the capital
of Cuba. If Maximo Gomez has car
ried out the plan attributed to him,
that of pushing westward to the sup
part of Maceo, junction of the two
main bodies of the insurgent forces
may be expected shortly. Nothing ap.
pears to be known of the
Strength of the Insurgent Force
with Antonio Maceo in this province.
In fact, it was not until the news was
being passed from person to person III
the streets that the authorities would
give half hearted admission of the
truth that Maceo had crossed the mill.
tary line. This, it is believed, will al
ter the whole situation and important
events may occur within short time.
There is no doubt shat the insurgents
have recently increased in number
about this capital. The stray bands OF

troops have now swollen to the proper.

MACEO'S MOVEMENTS.
Story Told Previous to the Report of His
Death.


Death.
HAVANA, Dec. 9.-It is semi-offi.
cially admitted that Antonio Maceo,
the lnsurgent leader, passed the mill
tary line of Pinar del Rio on Friday
last near Mariel, the port at its north
ern extremity.
There was much excitement here
when it became generally known that
Maceo had crossed the military line
with, it is understood, strong force of
insurgents, especially when coupled
with the fighting between Spanish
troops and insurgents close to this city.
1t seems evident that the insurgent
commander has not only cleverly turned
the flank of Captain General Weyler,
but has succeeded in getting in his rear
and crossing the famous military line

New Orleans. There they will be
joined by 80 others from various parts
of the United States, and the entire
party will ship for Cuba on the first

of j. B. Hartman, an ex-soldier, who
served five years in Uncle Sans service
and saw much hard fighting i'll the In.

That Maceo VIII Strike
before Weyler can hurry back from
Pinar del Rio. Indeed, it is currently
reported that the captain general has
been wounded in an engagement with
the insurgents before the latter crossed
the military line and that he may not
be able to return here except as pris-
oner of the Cubans.
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
them. This does not alter the fact that
he has escaped the hunter and that the
