GOMEZ DOES 1T AGAIN.
he CUTS THROUGH GEN. MARIN's
LINES NEAR QUIVIOAN.
The Insurgent General is too Sharp for His
FOes---Destroys Oulverts and Tears up
acknowledgements Leaving
Cuba.

NEW YORK, Feb. "a special to
the World from Havana says:
Maxine Gomez, accompanied by
1000 mounted men, succeeded late
Thursday in recrossing.the Trocha,
or military line established by the
Spanish forces between Havana
and Batabano. He crossed few
miles north of Quivican. At the
same time he destroyed small
culvert, tore up the railroad tracks,
cut the telegraph wires and Grip
pied the section of the railroad be-
tween Rincon and Quivican.
People wonder how Gomez
evaded the Spanish columns; how
it was possible for him to recross
and practically cut through the
wall of men of which the Spanish
generals expected so much. At
the very time Gomez played his
trick on the Spanish guard along
the Trocha, General Marin, the
acting governor general of Cuba,
who had left Havana the same day
at the head of the best equipped
force put in the field during the
present rebellion, was slumbering
quietly, surrounded by his troops
at San Antonio de Los Banos about
ten miles east of Guanajay. Go
mez's route of march was parallel
with that of Marin and not more
than from six to ten miles distant
at any time. Yet they did not
meet.
Gen. Marin did not learn until
the following morning, (Friday)
that Gomez was in the east again.
The first intimation reached him
by a roundabout telegram from
Quivican. An exceedingly large
number of people have been leav-
ing Cuba in the last fortnight and
1t seems as IL the exodus has only
just begun. Every steamer leav-
ing Havana carries hundreds OF
families, not only to the United
States, but also to Mexico, South
America and West Indian ports.
Steamship agents talk OF putting
on extra steamers to carry the pas
sengers away. Business is practi-
cally at stand still. Merchants
who have stores are unable to sell
their wares owing to the Interrupt
tion of traffic on the railroad lines
running from the coast points to
the interior of the island. Some
sugar plantations In the extreme
eastern provinces Of the island are
grinding, are being afraid to
operate. All who are grinding are
doing so under strong military
guard, and being compelled to feed
the troops, the profits are very
small. One or two plantations, it
is said, obtained permission from
Gomez to start their machinery.
At Constancia, 400 regulars and
600 civil guards are encamred on
and about the plantation to pro.
tect the men at work. Small stone
fortresses have been erected at
equal distances around the planta.
ton, all being connected by tele-
phone. The troops use these as
look out places. No attempt has
been made so far to interfere with
grinding there.

Indignities to American Missionaries
Reported From Asia Minor.
THEIR HOUSES HAVE BEEN BLOCKADED
Charges That Have Been Made
Against Mr.. Knapp.
SIR PHILIP CURRIE'S PART

CONSTANTINOPLE.Ap April 1S.-Telegrams
from Bltlis, eastern Turkey, state that the
houses of Rev. George II. Knapp and Rev.
Royal NJ. Cole, missionaries of the Ameri-
can board of foreign missions of Boston,
have been blockaded by the Turkish gov
eminent and that their servants have not
been allowed to go and come from the
markets.
On March Is orders were given by the
Turkish government requiring that they
and their families should all leave Bills by
the southern route. The roads were then
impossible. The missionaries heartily ac-
knowledged the activity of Mr.. John w.
Riddle, the United States charge d affaires.
In securing the notification of the order
issued March 26 for the expulsion of
Messrs. Knapp and Cole and their families,
and the zeal Of Sir Philip Currie, the Brit
ish ambassador, in supporting Mr.. Riddles
demands.
Sir Philip Currie told the Turkish minis
ter for foreign affairs that the American
missionaries co-operated with Great Brit
ain in the distribution of relief. and that
he would not see them driven away
The dispositions that have been made
against the Rev. George H Knapp charge
him with having planned and led on an at
tack upon the mosque. with having used
the school bell for giving signals for the
attack. and that on October -, 1898. he
was responsible for the slaughter of 800 or
more people, and for the plumber of thou
sands upon thousands of llres' worth OF
property from the markets of Bills
A timely telegram from the United
States minister, MIR Alex. W. Terrell, a
few weeks ago, saved him from being
forcibly seized and cast into prison.
Should the Turkish government decline
to follow up the case. then IL would be
feasible for the United States government
to demand damages for libel. The claim
for indemnity for the assault in 1888 of
Mousa Bey on Rev. George O. Knapp,
father of the Rev George II. Knapp. and
of DR.. Reynolds. now of Van. eastern
Turkey, was made, but it has never been
peid-
Indemnity for the murder of Mr.. LEM,
the American bicyclist, is another unsatis-
fed claim

FROM the montgomery CMd-) Press
The burdens of the national capital are
very heavy and are rendered doubly so by
the expense of entertaining people from all
sections of the Union who have friends
at the seat of government. The hospitality
of the nations capital is well understood
throughout the country. and the residents
of Washington are always glad to do their
full share in the way OF entertaining their
guests. They may, therefore, be excused
for becoming indignant when men like Mr..
Powers, sent down from such state as
Vermont, help to defeat a bill which looks
to improving the population by giving them
greater inducements to read and study
than they have at present. We are glad
to see that several different organizati tons
have taken this matter up, and are going
to send home to the constituency which
Mr.. Powers represents a full account of
his antagoniSm to the cause of information.
Vermont has done a great deal for Wash
ington by sending to 1t brght-minded pub
lie men VINO have been glad to foster its
prosperity. Foremost among them have
been Senators Edmunds, Morrill,, Proctor
and Representative Grout, who has been
chairman Of the District committee 1t is.
perhaps, therefore a necessity in the fitness
of things that Washington should be visited
by statesman Of so narrow d caliber as to
bring down the average of those who have
preceded him.
