ROAR OF BATTLE.

1t Is Heard at a Point Forty-Five Miles
South of Havana.
HAVANA, Jan Sword has Just been
received that the sounds of cannon and
musketry have been heard in the neigh
borhood of Guanajay, an important town
of 1900 inhabitants in Pinar del Rio,
forty five miles southwark Of Havana 1t
is supposed that an engagement is taking
place there between the forces of General
Suarez Valdez and the insurgents, but the
numbers engaged or the course which the
fortunes of the fight are taking is not
known. The insurgents were burning
and destroying yesterday up to within
eight miles of Havana. The district
around the village of Calabazar suffered.
Calabazar is only two miles from Vento,
where the apparatus is located upon which
Havana depends for its water supply. In
the Calabazar and Hoyo Colorado districts
the cane has been burned in the fields of
Maulin, CAIRO and Baracoa
MADRID, Jan. S-The Correspondence
states that the insurgents have attacked
Hoyo Colorado, which is three leagues
from Havana The Spaniards were out
numbered and surrendered. General
Campos, it is further stated defeated the
insurgents near Havana.
The Correspondence further states that
after defeating the insurgents close to
Hav ma the Spanish gunboat Ardilla cap
tured four vessels filled with insurgents
trying to escape
a-Tha In nd
commanded by Zayas was reported at diff
ferent times Monday at Caimito, Guaya-
bal, Hoyo Colorado and Punta Bravo,
showing that he followed pretty closely
to the line between the provinces of Pinar
del Rio and Havana up the extreme north
eastern portion OF Pinar del Rio. This
brought him into the region into which
large numbers Of troops have been sent to
guard the western approach to Havana.
1t does not appear that the insurgents
were in any great force and no engage
ments are reported. The fields of the
Valdespino estate have been burned, and
the villages of Puerto la Guiara and Mar
zero have also been put to the torch, after
being plundered, according to the report
received here.
The influx Of refugees from the whole of
the territory surrounding Havana con-
tinues, and apparently 1t is not possible to
obtain sufficient means of transportation
to accommodate the fleeing families and
their household goods. The country seems
to be entirely abandoned to the insurgent
army, and no movement apparently avails
to check them. The eastern portion of
the island seems not to have been entirely
stripped of an effective force of insurgents.
A report from Santa Clara says that the
troops encountered the insurgent band led
by Pancho Carrillo, and in the battle
which ensued sustained a loss of fifty.

DEBS ADVOCATES SOCIALISM.

Declares That Good Times VIII Return
with a Cooperative Commonwealth.
CHICAGO, Jan. AT meeting of the
members of the American Railway union
last night Eugene V. Debs declared that
good times had left the country never to
return. He said nothing less than the
total abolition of the wage system would
answer the demands Of the country. He
declared that the army of unemployed is
constantly on the increase and that COM
binations, trusts and corporations are
crushing out the life of the middle classes
and driving them into the ranks of the
unemployed.
Under the present system, he said, the
best that could be expected was that af-
fairs would continue TO grow worse. He
wanted to see the common people go into
politics and inaugurate cooperative
commonwealth. He paid his respects to
President Cleveland denouncing his at
titude on the Venezuelan question, and
said he was not honestly trying to enforce
the Monroe doctrine. General Miles was
also scored for asking for more men for
the army.

Games mp again In les serious form OF
three weeks ago 1t will be because Lord
Salisbury Is too stubborn to learn the
lesson of the German empsrors message.
That the Kaiser's telegram to the presi-
dent of the Transvaal means avowed
hostility to England Is universally ac-
cepted He fouts at Great Britain's
suzerainty over the Transvaal. To sur
render that claim would be the most
shameful concession in England's his
tory for two centuries. The possibility Of
10 is scornfully rejected by the entire
English press, Tory and Liberal alike"
The report of the resignation Of Premier
Rhodes is confirmed and IL has been ac-
cepted instead of rejected. Sir j. Gordon
Spriggs has been appointed in his place.
Further details of the fight in which
Jameson was worsted show that he with
700 men fought and ''stood off, 4, 800 Beers
until his ammunition was exhausted. A
dispatch to The Times dated Capetown,
Jan. 8. says: president Kruger has
stopped the food supplies into Johannes
burg. The whole of the national reform
committee has been arrested. Nobody is
allowed to enter the Transvaal territory
without passport vised by Kruger. 1t
is stated that DR.. Leyds, the secretary Of
state for the Transvaal with a secret fund
at his disposal, has fioated a German col
onization company to introduce 500 Ger
man military settlers into the Transvaal."
A dispatch from Johannesburg dated
Jan. 2. midnight says: ''The central COM
mittee of the National Union is bitterly
indignant at the terms which President
Kruger has imposed and they declare that
the position the Uitlanders are placed in
is solely due to the imperial proclamation
fol bidding the British subjects to aid DIR.
Jameson. The defense committee in Jo-
hannesburg is serving out arms. A pro-
visonal government has been declared
with force of 100O0 men. Thousands
Of Beers are outside Of the town. Offers
of help from all parts Of Cape Colony have
been received by the defense COMMITTEES
and men are enrolling rapidly. The
Transvaal flag has been hoisted over the
committee rooms to indicate that IL does
not intend to destroy the republic"
The Berlin correspondent of The Times
says: 1.-THE violence of the press against
England Is abating, and the idea of q
German protectorate over the Transvaal
is warmly repudiated and denounced as q
malicious and detestable invention. The
purpose of the emperor's telegram to Pres
ident Kruger was two-fold: To secure
popularity at home, and to warn England
that her safety lies in closer contact with
Germany and the Triple Alliance.
The Times in an editorial this morning
again reminds the United States that
whether we have troubles in Europe and
Africa or not we will not yield on the
Venezuelan question. We have insulted
nobody, but If we are compelled to fight
we shall be ready to guard what is worth
fighting for."
