the Herald from Madrid says:
The two men on whom all eyes in
Spain will shortly be fixed are General
WeyIer and Senor Robledo. OF these,
1t is impossible to interview the for
mer, as he is at this moment on the
high seas. But Senor Robledo said to
the Herald" correspondent:
General Weyler is at this moment
the one man in Spain upon whom the
earnest scrutiny of every Spaniard is
expectantly fixed. In spite of what has
been said against him in the United
States, he represents the type and en-
aDodiment of Spanish national honor.
All the parties in Spain, Republicans,
GarliSts and others, know this quite
well, and are endeavoring to secure
him for their own, and are making
tentative efforts to win him over to
their side. 1t is impossible to predict
which party he will favor, and it is all
the harder to make an approximate
prediction, because Weyler is essential
~ a soldier and very little of a poll
qician. L am inclined to think, how
ever, that he will favor the party of
which 1 am the champion My only
grounds for thinking so are that such
political ideas as he is known to pro-
dess would best chime in with the ideas
of my party.
General Weyler represents the es-
sence of the Spanish Liberal character.
Especially is this noticeable with re-
gard to the army. OF course, even in
1he army he has enemies. But the
large majority of the soldiers is at his
back and devoted to him. Therefore,
as / say, he is destined to play a most
important part in the subsequent af-
fairs in the peninsula.
L should never trust the United
States, and have no doubt whatever as
to the nature of their designs on Cuba -
Senior Robledo believes that there will
soon be an overthrowing of the Cabi-
net, if nothing more serious, soon after
,Weyler's return.
DELGARDO'S CHIVALRY.
NEW YORK, Nov. ia dispatch to
ihe World" from Havana says:
The chivalry of a Cuban leader, Juan
Delgardo, has illumined this barbarous
war:
DeIgardo and his forces had a hard
fight with the Spanish regulars in the
Hanbre hills near Managua. In bril-
liant charge. and after hand-to-hand
battling, Delgardo captured a Spanish
Captain and fourteen soldiers. Most or
The prisoners were severely wounded by
1nachetes.
While Weyler was here scores of
wounded Cubans were stabbed to death
with bayonets or shot as they lay
stretched on the field, but it Jared diff
ferently with Delgardo's prisoners HIS
surgeons were not too busy with their
own wounded to dress the wounds OF
their enemies. Then, while the hght
WAS still raging, Delgardo hoisted nag
pf truce and under it returned to thelr
commander the fifteen men with their
wounds dressed, and they had chance
for their lives. The splendid chlvairy
of this action touched the Spanish COM
mander, who retired, sending this word
back to Delgardo by the wounded men
escort:
II will fight no longer to-day with an
enemy who has treated wounded span
ash soldiers so nobly."
Alexandra Rodriguez, the CUBAN
1eader. macheted thirty Spanish guer-
rillas near San Felipe. Strong FORCES
were sent after Rodriguez, and 1t is
,7ox announced triumphantly and offl-
,ially. that the Spaniards killed twen-
Nv of his soldiers near Managua on NO
