CUBANs ARE SCATTERED.
World Correspondents View of the
State of HOstiIities.


NEW YORK, Dec 25.-A special
copyright cable dispatch to the World
from William Shaw Bowen, it's Ha-
vana correspondent, says: The bullets
that ended the earthly career of An
tonic Maceo, the Cuban patriot leader,
went to the heart of the rebellion. The
insurgent bands that roam through the
province of Pinar del Rio are scattered
now, and they await the coming Of a
leader in whom they have confidence.
They need the magic and magnetism of
brave commander. I met Gen. Mel
quizo, the military head Of the dis
trict, and had long talk with him.
He had just returned from fortnight's 3
expedition through his territory. He
said that he found no insurgents, save
a few groups Of four or five. Most of
the rebels he said, have hidden their
arms and are posing as pacificos." Gen.
Maceo. His DEATH" he says, was a
terrible blow to the rebellion. His
black followers sacrificed their homes
in their devotion to him. His white ad-
herents are worthless as fighting men.
I found much suffering among the peo-
pie Of the hills. In many cases young
children brought into camp were SO
nearly starved that they could not re-
tain solid food"
Mr.. Bowen, who had permission to
pass the Spanish lines and travel
through Pinar del Ri6 province, cabled
a report of his observance to the
World. He found few signs of civil
war, except about the garrisoned towns.
Tobacco was being cultivated in many
places except that the planting was
later than common, and the inhabitants
seemed to be following their ordinary
avocationS.
The Worlds correspondent sums up
his observations and information by
saying that Gen. Rivera, who succeed
ed Gen. Maceo, has not yet been able
to concentrate the insurgent forces in
that province, and that unless he does
So all of Cuba west of Havana will
soon be virtually in the control of the

Mothers picked up their little ones
and ran to the street. Others refused
to leave. The police showed the men
and women down the stairs and
picked the children from the floors,

one was clfnging to a toy. The roof
of the factory building fell within an
hour after the fire was discovered
