and the troops are rapidly surrounding

and gathered 200 men, with whom he in
tended to defend the town. Maxine
Gomez, the rebel leader, sent word TO the
mayor that II the insurgents were fired

mayor to make no resistance, as they did
not want to lose their property The

OF 1000 men entered San Felipe. No damage

San Felipe, Beucal, Duran and Guara,
seeking safety under the guns of Havana.
The train brought a detachment of4troops
from the Barrito estate at Duran. Pas
seDgers from Melena state that the rebels
entered that town Monday and made
an attack on the church establishment.
The mayor tried to oppose them but was
killed. A body OF the rebels marched
into Quivican, where they captured a
quantity OF arms and ammunition. The
railway station was set on fire and de-
stroyed At San Gabriel, the rebels burned
the town and the station of the Western
railway company. The inhabitants of
that place took refuge in the BUSH Only
three houses in the place were left stand
