THE QUEEN REGENTS PRAISE.
SHE SENDS A MESSAGE TO WEYLER
COMPLIMENTING HIS WORK.

REBELS SEEM TO HAVE DISAPPEARED IN PiNAh
DEL RIo-UNcoNscIoUs BREAK" OF
HAVANA PAPER CONCERNING THE
MANNER OF MAcEos DEATH.
Havana Dec. 1.-THE Queen Regent has sent
a dispatch to Captain-General Weyler comph-
menting him upon the result Of his campaign
against the insurgents.
Advices from the province OF Pinar del Rio are
that several Spanish battallons have penetrated
to the interior Of the hills there in places that
were considered impregnabe by the rebels. Ine
insurgents had disappeared. the troops burned
the huts that had been occupied by them
number of horses and cattle were captured.
The officers commanding in Pinar del Rio have
no idea of the present position Of the rebels IN
that province Scouting parties have failed to
learn their wherea bouts. but the military profess
to believe that their abandonment of almost un-
assaable positions is proof Of the disorganiza-
tion that has followed the death of Maceo.
Indications point to rebel parties having en-
tered the Province Of Matanzas. Their trais
show the direction In which they have gone.
and a Spanish column Is following In their
track. 1t is believed that concentration IS IN
tended In Santa Clara Province OF rebels from
the east and west. The Government says IL IS
watching the movement, and so far as can pe
gathered from outside sources 1t Is doing litte
besides watching to prevent; the rebels from
carrying out their plans.
The "Diario de Ia Marina" continues TO pup
lish protests against the stories printed In the
United States regarding the manner In when
Macco his death. 1t maintains that the
rebel leader was shot in open battle. In leader
day it says. with an unconscious reflection on
the Spanish character that the stories on as
sassnation reflect more TO the discredit or
Maceo. in accepting the alleged invitation 10
parlty than to diminishing the fame, honor ana
chivary Of the Spaniards. In this sentence the
"Dario de la Marina shows unintentionaHy
that. i'm it's opinion Maceo did not, in trusting
a Spanish flag Of truce, show the intelligence
expected Of him.
The "Lucha" bitterly comments upon the
new5 received here from the United states, ana
asserts that the American sympathy for the
rebels is due To a subsidized press. IT says that
the Government is responsible for not employ
ing the press the same the insurgents add
ing that II ii did so it would find the newspapers
a powerful medium for the defence Of the Span
ish cause.
