names a meeting will be held Tuesday

at Raleigh, it was agreed between him

Juan Degados insurgent band, surren-
dered yesterday to the Spanish authorf-
ties and was granted amnesty.
Captain-General Weyler has published
decree regarding the circumstances Of
Antonio Maceo's death, which fully con-
firms the reports heretofore sent to the
Associated Press from here. This decree
says that Maceo's body is buried near
Bejucal between Santiga de Las Vegas
and Rincon, in Havana province.
The official dispatches bulletined to-
day by the Generals staff give only un-
important accounts OF scattered skir-
mishes in which the losses on either side
were insignificant.

PENALTY FOR ENLIsTING.

Department Will Probably Take Official
Notice Of the Formation Of Companies.
Washington, Dec. 15.-The attention
of officials here has been attracted by the
stories coming from all portions of the
country indicating that enlistments are
going ON Of parties of men to go to Cuba
to join the insurgents in their struggle
against the Spaniards. These enlist
ments are in direct violation of the emu
trality laws and are prohibited under Sc
we're penalties. For accepting a commits
sion to serve against Spain, a country
with which the United States is now at
peace, the penalty prescribed by section
52S1, revised statutes is $4,000 fine and
three years Imprisonment, while for en-
listment to serve against Spain or hiring
anyone to enlist, the penalty is almost
as heavy, being a maximum of $1,000
fine and three years Imprisonment. The
enforcement of these laws naturally fall
within the functions of the United States
officials to whose knowledge the attempt
at infringement is brought, but if the
movements continue on a large scale, as
reported, it is probable that the depart
ment Of justice will send instructions
Of a special character to all Of its agents
calling their attention to the proclama-
tion issued by the President last spring
and enjoining upon them q strict require
ment Of the neutrality laws. The gov
ernment doubtless viii be obliged to do
this in order to manifest its purpose to
meet the requirements Of international
law, just as it has warned the shipping
interests against taking part in filibuster-
ing movements and has sent rigid instruc-
tions to judicial officers at Atlantic ports
to prevent the infraction of the laws in
that respect.

MEDICINES FOR SICK cUBANs
Physicians Of st. Paul viii Send Band
ages and Other Necessities for the
Suffering

st. Paul, Dec. 15.--The physicians of
st. Paul, aroused by the reports of suf-
fering among the Cubans have started a
subscription list throughout the profess
sion for money with which to buy medi-
cine and bandages to send Immediately
by way of Tampa, Florida, direct to the
camps and towns Of the patriots. The af-
fair started with DIR. w. u. Kelly, DIR.

this evening and tomorrow it is said, a
large sum will be realized as others also
are subscribing. The physicians intend
to buy all the medicines, bandages, ma
terial and express it to Tampa and
thence to the coast of Cuba. If the gov
ernment attempts to interfere in this hui
name movement an appeal will be made
to the President from a humanitarian
standpoint. The story that comes from
Cuba to the physicians of this city
through one of their number is that there
are $4,000 sick people in Cuba, many of
them the families Of insurgents.
SPAIN DENIES ASSASSINATION.

dispatch from the Spanish minister Of for
eign affairs in regard to the death of
Gen. Maceo received at the legation here
was made public by Minister De Lone
tonight:
Madrid, Dee. Is,
TO Spanish Minister, Washington, d. G.
Maceo's death took place in loyal fight
at Punta Bravo and was caused by our
soldiers bullets. This is evidently prov
ed by the letter written by the son Of
Gomez in which he states that he killed
himself in order not to abandon the body
OF his General. The handwriting of the
letter has been verified and also every
detail of the fight, time and circum-
stances when Maceo and the son Of Go
mez were wounded All these details
have been published in Europe by tele-
grams from both Spanish and foreign cor
respondents
(Signed) sTETUAN."
Mr.. Du Bose, the secretary of the lega-
ton, speaking for the minister, said to-
night that the officials of the legation

of Maceo's assassination and to trace il
to certain Cuban resident of Jackson

MEXICO INFLAMED.
Clash With Spaniards and Recognition
of Cuba Called For.

City of Mexico, Dec. 15.-There are
unconfirmed reports circulating here to-
night that mob in Barcelona has as
saulted the Mexican consul on account
Of his Cuban sympathy.
Considerable i'll feeling against the
Spaniards has been aroused here by an
anonymous circular signed "Son of Pela-
yo'' and containing phrases insulting to
the Mexican Nation and government.
The Spaniards claim the Cubans got it
up to further infiame the public mind a.
gainst them.
kilograms from San Luis Potosi to-
night say that this document together
with imprudent articles in Correrro de
Espana have contributed to bring about
state OF high tension there and fears
are expressed that the police will have
to be called on to prevent a collision be-
tween the populace and the resident
Spaniards.
The Governor has given orders to pro-
tect the Spaniards.
A further cause of the irritation is an
attack made on a laboring man in this
city who, having shouted "Viva Cuba"
was set upon by two Spaniards and beat
en-.
The newspapers tonight print an ac-
count of the case. Popular sympathy is
especially enthusiastic with the Cubans
and their cause is immensely popular
since it has come to be believed that Ma
Geo was betrayed to his death.
The Mexican people cannot understand
why the United States does not recognize
Caban belligercncy.
A newspaper called Spectre Of Maceo"
will soon appear in this city which will
espouse the Cuban cause and will be edi-
ted by Mexicans and viii urge the rec
ognition OF Cuba by this government.

STRANGE From Washington To
March to Cooper Union.

Madrid, Dee. 15--According to surface
indications, Captain General Weyler will
soon be relieved of his command in Cuba
The discomfort with Weyler is noticeable
even in the government organs. They
say that instead of going to Havana to
receive an unmerited ovation he ought to
have continued the military operations
in the province of Piuar del Rio.
4 bad impression has also been created
here by the dispatches of the Spanish
correspondents at Havana announcing
that General Weyler has suppressed all
dispatches referring to the ovations in
Spain in honor of Major Cirujeda. 1t is
supposed the Captain Generals action
was due to jealousy, and it is currently
reported that the government is disposed
TO replace Weyler by Gen. Marin, now
Governor Of Porto Rico.
The report that Captin- General Weyler
has ordered proceedings to be taken
against Major Cirujeda, because the
major, after the death OF Antonio Maceo,
went to Havana without the permission
OF his superior officer, is causing discon-
tent here, owing to the popularity of
Cirujeda. 1t has been decided at the
cabinet council to purchase the British
transport Prince Of Wales.
LONDON PAPERS THREATEN Us.
London, Dec. 15.-The Times to-day,
commenting on the Cuban situation, ex-
presses the hope that the Spaniards will
continue to disregard the vituperation
of the jingo Senators and abstain from
initiating them" adding: "The American
government maintains correct and neu-
trail attitude and as long as it does so
Spain can afford to smile at Senator
Chandler's off-hand recognition of the
Cuban Republic"
The Globe this evening says: when
these wild men rave at England British
feeling regards them as amusing lunaties,
whose grOtesque antics do not carry dan
ger to either country. But the Spanish
are more easily indamed to anger and
there is some danger Of Spain falling into
the trap when the piratical Iaurada
reaches Valencia. Spain has endured
much contumely from the great Republic:
but there are many indications that this
passive submission to insult will not last
much longer. 1t would be well, there
fore for the Washington government to
place restaint upon Senator Chandler and
his colleagues If Spain decided to up
hold her honor by arms, q naval war
might have results, not at all agreeable
to the American chauyinists.'
