BOND CALL ISSUED.
PROPOSALS INVITED FOR
$lOO,OOO,OOO.
They Are to Run for Thirty Years and
Bear 4 Per Cent Interest-To He De-
nominations Of $50 and Payable In In
stallments-The Public Can Invest.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 6.-Secretary of
the Treasury Carlisle last night made
public his circular for bond issue.
The loan will be popular" one,
and the circular, which is dated jan
nary 8, gives notice that the govern
ment will sell $1Oc, OO0, 900 thirty year,
4per cent coupon or registered bonds.
dated February ], 1895, for which pur-
chasers will be required to pay in gold
coin or gold certificates
This is the first issue by the present
administration of such large amount
of bonds at one time, all the previous
issues having been for $50, OOO, 600
each. The circular also contains an
animation of . possible further issue
of bends should the issue or sale of ad-
ditional or different form of bond for
the maintenance of the gold reserve
be authorized by law before February
5. The fact that the bonds will be
issued in sums of $50, and multiples
thereof. and be payable in INSTALL
ments, is q feature which it is believed
will make them be regarded with pop
ular favor.
The main reason for dating the
bonds a year back is said to be in order
to give the public . better opportu-
nifty to judge their market value by
comparing them with the gold IS
issued at that time, SO that their bids
can be made to conform with the mar
ket value of those bonds on the lst of
February.

WAR OF THE CUBANS.
INSURGENTS PREPARING
TO ATTACK HAVANA.
They Have Subjugated the Bal.nee Of
the Island-The sugar Cane Fields
Destroyed by Fire-Havana Preparing
for Vigorous Defense.

HAVANA, Jan. 6.-Yesterday was a
day of nervousness and anxiety and
hourly apprehension of an attack BY
the insurgent army or part of it.
The bands commanded by Nunez and
Bermudez were seen at Managua, a
village not more than twelve miles
from Havana. There has been great
fear that the light and water supply
of the city would be cut off by a sud-
den raid OF the insurgent forces The
idea of the city being left in total
darkness for the unseen working OF
plots and seditions is itself enough to
work a panic in the nervous condition
of the public mind. Special prepare
tions for the defense of the works
that supply these have been made and
artillery has been placed to command
them against all probab BILE sources of
attack. Ali possible recruits have
been enlisted for the defense of the city
and the available ground around the
CITY has been filled with batteries of
artillery which are manned day and
night.
In effect. the whole island outside

hands of the insurgents They have
not annihilated the Spanish forces,
nor have they routed The whole army
in any single pitched battle. Yet the
situation is completely in their hands.
and SO completely have they outgen-
eraled the Spanish that. to all appear
ances, Martinez Campos' army might
as well be in Spain for any check it
puts upon the movements of Gomez's
army. The latter's progress has been
accomplished with continual acces-
sions to his forces by volunteers, and
has captured enough horses, rifles and
artillery to add immensely to the eff
fective strength of his men.
There is little doubt really felt here
that he will get as much or more SYM
pathy in Pipar del Rio than he did in
Santa Clara and Matanzas, and the
general fear here is now that after
sweeping over Pinar del Rio he will
come upon Havana from the west, CO.
operating in an attack with the forces
of the insurgents which have been
east of Havana for several days past
