NEW ORLEANS, La, May 1.-The
farmers of Plaquemines parish yesterday
fulfilled their threat that they would fire
upon vessels going too fast along the levee
by attacking the Spanish steamer Espana,
from Liverpool to New Orleans. A vollev
from their Winchesters greeted the
steamer about forty miles below New Or
leans, whereupon she Immediately slack
ened her speed and the firing ceased. No
one was hit and the assailants apparently
intended the shots to be harmless.
The Levce Board has instructed its at

captains of those vessels who run their
steamers at full speed, dashing waves

HAVANA, CUBA, May 1.--Fo1mer In
surgent Zarraga, who surrendered several
days ago to the Spanish, told them of a
large deposit OF dynamite the Cubans had
stored in Cuzco, Pinar del Rio.
According to Zarraga the dynamite
bombs numberei about 400. A Spanish
detachment OF about 500 men went to the
place desig mated by Zarraga TO seize the
deposit. In the first search nothing was
found, but later, when nearly all the
Spanish force was hunting about Cuzco
Hill, several bombs exploded, killing more
than 100 soldiers.
The rest of the Spaniards fed, but, find
ing Cuban force aga nst them, returned
and surrounded the hill. Then, keeping
a safe distance, they fired the trees and
bushes until all the dynamite exploded.
Thursday evening large body OF in
surgents appeared near Guanabacoa, six
miles from Havana fired on the suburbs
in sight of the Spanish force com mmanded
by Major Teierizo. which retired to Guam
abacoa without attem pting to fight.
Tejerizo explains the insurgents were
in the military district of Colonel Fonsde-
viella and therefore it devolved upon
Fonsdeviella, not upon him, to attack the
enemy. Fonsdevieila. when notified of
Tejerizo's attitude, started to give battle
10 the Cubans. An engagement followed,
in which, after two hours of firing, both
sides retired, Fonsdeviella to Guanabacoa
and the Cubans to Minas.
Friday morning the Cubans approached
near the coast. because they saw the sig
nails Of an expedition in the offing. Fons-
deviella attacked them between Minas
and the coast in order to capture the ex-
pedition. In this second engagement the
Spaniards lost captain and seven SOL
diers killed and ten wounded. The Gu
bans loss was heavy, but the expedition
was landed successfully ana the supplies
safely taken to the interior.

How the Greeks Propose to Stir Up
an InsurreCtion Throughout
Macedonia.

PARIS. FRANCE. May l. - The Revue
prints notable article on the Struggle
for Macedonia" the writer'of which is one
of the leaders OF the Greek National
League. He declares the war was entirely
brought about by the highest intellects in
the Hellenic world, professors. savants
and others distinguished in the various
fields Of Greek endeavor. Continuing, he
says, the plan of the league is 10 avoid a
pitched battle with the Turks, but to lure
them toward Athens, promoting an in
surrection meanwhile throughout Mace
donia, the Turkish islands and the old
Ionic coasts. Then when tho confusion is
at its height among the Turks the plan
contemplates the destruction of Constan-
tinople by fire. In order to ensure
triumph the writer declares: "Greece Will
sacrifice the lives of her children, towns,
olive groves and all her gold" The arti-
c!e gives vivid idea of the projects of the
league and the extraordinary power it
wields.

treaty:
II think we ought not to sign anything

LONDON, Engn May L. - Official
Europe now has fresh grievance
against Greece. The powers are anx-
ious, most of them. to interfere at the
present stage and establish the status
quo of a fortnight ago. They calcu-
lated the loss of Thessaly would be
ample punishment for the Greeks and
King George would be only toe glad to
cry for succor in such an emergency.
Greece has done nothing of the kind
and the powers, especially Salisbury,
are disappointed and disgusted with
the nation which does not know when
it is beaten. 1t is persistently reported
in England that France and Italy are
unwilling to wait longer for the VOL
untary submission of Greece and urge
the concert to interfere unasked. 1he
reason is that every Turkish success
stifTens the neck OF the Sultan and in
creases the ditficulty of controlling him
in the complicated settlement of affairs
of the Ottoman empire, which was in
terrupted by the war.
The new league of the three EN-
perors, it is announced, refuses to in
tervene until the powers are requested
by Greece TO act The matter has gone
sti1 further If reports current in dip
lOmatie circles are correct, instead OF
Greece humbling herself before her
European mentors, Great Britain finds
her interests threatened that she is
striving to secretly induce the Greek
authorities to apply for aid. In other
words, SaIisb bury, who consented to
punish the Greeks for the purpose of
breaking their spirit, is now beseech-
ing them to cry g nough!' because the
rod is really falling upon English
backs 1t is probably impossible for
the Greeks to continue incorrigible
much longer. but those who con-
demued the serviIe attitude of the
British Government in Eastern affairs
the past two years VIII be glad to see
the present embarrassment of Sails
bury augmented.
The rapid change in the general
European situation in the past week is
of greater Importance than the war
developme 1t is no longer doubted
that the league of the three Emperors is
fully established. Its first act is the
identical note to the people of the Bal
kan peninsula congratulating them on
their refusal to join the Greek cause
against Turkey. The neutrality of the
Balkans now seems fully assured. This
practically destroys all doubt of war.
The question chiefly agitating dipIo-
matte circles is no longer war, but
whether Russia Will be able to bind to
herself France and Italy in addition to
the two central powers. In other words
will Great Britain finally be isolated?
There is still strong confidence in Lon
don that Sails bury Will be able to win
France away from the Gar, while
friend ship or alliance with Rome, it is
believed, may be had for the asking.
This is expecting great deal, and there
is really nothing tangible on which the
Englishmen base such hopes.
