Philadelphia, Jan. S,-New light on the actual numerical strength of the Cuban insurGent army under the direct command of Generals Gomez and Ma eco and concerning the great destruc- ton of crops in Cuba, was furnished upon the arrival in Philadelphia of the British steamship Ardandhu which sailed from Havana on December 20 last. This information is to the effect that these two generals also had 23, 1000 men massed under them, and that Hay ana was in 6 state of great confusion and excitement on the Ardandhu's sail ing day.
 During the first part of the steam- ships voyage along the Cuban coast fields of blazing corn and cane could be seen for long distnce. The scene of devastation extended all the way from Havana to Cardenas and millions of dollars worth of property was soon re duced to ashes.
 The business men of both Cardenas and Havana hope, according to reports brought by the Ardandhu, for insurgent success, and many believe it to be near at hand
 They say there is a financial panic impending in Havana owing to Spains lack of both money and credit. The young military recruits who have not received their pay for months, and have survived the yellow jack, openly curse the cause of Spain and threaten to re- volt
 John c. Deemer, an American civil engineer, who was a passenger on the Ardandhu, had been on a railroad train that was stopped by the insurgent army five miles from Cardenas. Instead of there being only 5000 insurgent sol diers, as reported from Spanish sources, there were, he says, at least S,000 men, under the command O General Gomez, and 5000 more snort distance in the rear commanded by General Maceo.
 Some idea of the size of the army, he says, may be gathered from the fact that the troops were three hours and forty minutes in marching across the railroad. There was also a train of 100 mules, loaded with provisions and ammunition. He says the soldiers were ragged after their march through the forests, but well armed and disci- pllned.
 The passengers on the train were not disturbed but the official malls were seized by General Gomez.
