The Inhabitants Fear An Attack From
the Insurgents
Havana, January 5.--haYana has srent
a day OF nervousness ana anxiety. ana
has been ia hourly apprehension OF an
attack by the rsurgent army or part az
It. Yesterday the hands commanded h,
Nunez aud hermVdez We're seen at Man
aqua, a village not more than ~ elye
mules from Havana. II must not be-. SUP.
POSED tha; the city is open to the adj
vance of the insurgents or there are nnna
within its bordc"s TO offer resistance.
There has been no overt act OF the au-
thorities within the city ana there haze.
( been numerous voluntary offers to hear
arms IN defense az the city. But there
has been comfortable conviction In IN,
minds Of the residents OF Havana from
the beginning of the insurrection thar
they were In no real danger OF .nolesta-
/ ton from the insurgents. Many hundreds
OF non-comhatants on the island have
come TO Havana to await the massage
/ of the storm. sun more have sent the,r
wives and families here US a safe refuge.
THIS class OF the population is IN state
Of utter CONSERVATION and dsmav ana
panic.
The authorities no longer make tho
slightest concealment OF the serious view
! they take of the situation and there are
some who do not hesitate to rail at the
Spanish generals and troops and maxi
bitter criticisms OF them There nav.
been great fears that the water SUNNY
of the city would be cut of by a sudden
raid OF the insurgents.
The idea OF the city being lef, In total
darkness for the unforeseen plots ana
SediIions IS itself enough 10 work n mani,
In the nervous condition OF The pubic
mind. Special preparations for the do
Tense Of the works that supply these hav,
been made and artillery has been placed
10 command them against all oossib Q
sources OF attack All possible recruits
have been enlisted for the defense OF rho
city and the available ground about the
city has been filed with batteries ~
artillery, which are manned night ana
day.
The Spanish authorities have main.

from Havana TO the town of Ratabano
on the south coast since the Invasion az
Matanaas province by Insurgents be-
yona which they hoped TO prevent ad-
vance of the destroying columns OF their
enemies. This Gordon has proved M more
effective than did the line Of la Tran.ha
which was laid 10 keep the Insurgents
out OF santa Clara province This line
was broken yesterday by the forces under
Gomez. and tho main body OF the insur-
gents today passed into the privnce OF
Ptnar del BIO, nearly overrunnlng tha,
