er.-est part Of the dull season. While
Brighton and Soda Springs votaries are
climbing mountains and going through

sufficient TO cause any animation in the

The prevalent lethargy IS no worse
than that which exists in eastern me-

Georgetown, Tex. May 21.-(Special.)
The political slaughter of the Hon. q.
w. Glasscock of this city by the POpulist
party has sent every other topic into the
background. The consensus of opinion
seems to be that he has been shabbily
treated by his party.
Col. Roach, Democrat said: "Ile has
been very badly treated and has resent
ed the inquisitory conduct of the self
constituted committee in straightfor-
ward and manly spirit. The effect of his
withdrawal will be the certain defeat OF
the Populist candidate for congress, and

j. Il. Cooper, Democrat: while L
don't think they ever had any chance
to elect Populist to congress, all pos
sibility of such result is now gone. His
political career has been such as to draw
votes from all other parties for any ONCE

district and county is now assured.

AND OFFICIAL REPORTS SAY THE
INSURGENTS WERE DIS
LODGED.
VALDEZ ATTACKS MACEO'S FORCES.
A Number of Cubans Reported Killed
Gen. Valdez Received Two Bullet
Wounds-Rumors of Slaughter
Pronounced Fictitious.

Havana, May 2G.-Gen SuarcZ VALDEZ
at the head Of force of 1000 men neal
Donsolacion del Sur in Pinar del Rio
has had severe combat with insurgents
the majority of whom were infantry
s1nder Antonio Macco and ParciO Diaz.
The insurgents were cntrcnchcd on the
mountains and hill side and these they
attempted to retain in a stubborn fight for
i've hours 1t is officially reported that
they were finally dislOdgcd with artil-
lery, thirty-nine of them having been
killed. Among the killed were Maj Ma
range and two foreigners. They are said
10 have carried off over 100 wounded
1t is rumored that the leader, Garlic,
was killed. The troops and officers Of
the battalion and infantry of Antonio
have mustered at Manuel Rcy de la Cruz,
where it was found that fourteen private
soldiers of the different battaions had
been seriously and thirteen slightly
wounded.
Gen. Valdez received two bullet
wounds, one in the arm and the other in
the region of the stomach. He is report
y
with this force will go to relieve the cav
airy, which is guarding the line of the
tr0cha. The insurgents entered the vii
lage Of Cabezas and plundered two stores.
They carried away great deal of prop
erty and burned fourteen hauscs. They
entered the village under the guns of the
garrison and under fire from the forts
and soldiers while they were plundering.
Reports circulated in the United States
OF slaughter and murder by the troops
all over the island are pronounced by the
authorities to be inventions of persons
in Key West
The list Of names of Cubans published
in Florida as having been murdered is
claimed to be fictitious. The only gen
uinc name is that of IA storckccper, an
old Spaniard, and not n Cuban, who died
from natural causes.
The health of the army is better than
ever before and there is much less yellow
fever and smallpox than last year.
MAJ. DE Villas has had fight with the
insurgents near Cristobal, in Pinar del
Rio. He inflicted upon them numerous
loss and captured their arms and am
munition.
Nine political prisoners at San Cristo-
bal have been set at liberty. That town
is surrounded by eighteen forts, which
are outside the regular line of defense.
Gen. Arolis was reported to have re-
fired from the command of the trocha
on account of sickness. 1t is now re-
ported that he has resigned his com
mand as his opinion was against that of
Capt. Gen. Wcylcr, changing his plans
and moving troops from the trocha
Probably Gen. Arols will leave for Spain
on May 30, though it is reported that he
has reconsidered and will reioin his com
mand.
