THE WAR IN CUBA.
Gen. Gomez Is Reported to Have Approach
ed Within Thirty Miles of Havana.

NEW YORK. May 1.-THE Suns Ia
vana correspondent sends the following:
Eighty wounded Spanish soldiers have
been brought to Havana. 1t is believed
that they fought in battle against Gen.
Gomez. 1t is said Gomez is in Havana pro-
vince. and that big battle was fought
yesterday near Guines, thirty miles from
the city of Havana, in which the Spaniards
were routed with heavy losses. At an
earlier hour excitement was created here
by the news that Gen. Gomez was at Ber-
meja, in Matanzas province, less than fif-
teen miles from the border of the province
of Havana. The Havana authorities de-
MED the fact in a semi-official way. and
asserted that the Cuban chief at Bermeja
was Gen. Quintin Banderas, with his
force of infantry from Orient; but Quintn
Banderas happens to be in Pinar del Rio
province. and another report was received
here confirming the news Of Gen. Gomez
presence so near Havana.
The entire guerrilla force of Bermeia
was captured by Gen. Gomez, and ten
Spanish soldiers who belonged to the guer-
rillas were set free by the Cuban leader.
They returned TO the spanish oulPOS'9'
declaring that the commander of the Gu

was Gen. Gomez himself. They declare
that he has about 1000 well armed men, al
most all cavelry. It is said among the Gu

cisco Carrllo, is following Gomez with s.
600 men. and that he is probably in about

THE FLOOD SITUATION.
Excitement Caused at the Different Points
By Breaks in the Levees.

NEW ORLEANS, May 11.-With a
slightly falling river and fine weather the
levee excitement is greater than at any
previous time. The Baton Rouge break
at the Burton lumber mills naturally holds
first place. The break this morning Will
make it doubtful if a levee can be built
around the danger spots. or whether the
whole upper portion of the PontcharTalh
line. running from Baton Rouge to New
Orleans. will he endangered by back
water. The latest news from the break in
the Burton Ievee shows a large force Of
men at work there, and the hope is enter
tanned by those on the spot ;hat the flow
of water will be checked before night.
Excitement was caused by the partial
failure of the new work upon the site of
the old Davis crevasse. considerable Of
the box levee built by the railroads and
planters giving way. New work was start
ed this morning with 500 men, and the
struggle will be interesting. The situation
AT Bayou Lafcurche. where many rich
sugar plantations are situated, has also
grown more critical. and after to-day no
more steamboats, will be allowed TO enter
the stream until the water subsidies.

ALIBERAL VICTORY.
The Conservatives Completely Routed In
the Quebec Provincial Elections.

MONTREAL. May 1.-THE Quebec pro
vincial elections took place to-day and
resulted in a complete overthrow OF the
Conservative party. In the last LeSlsIa-
ture the parties stood; Conssrvatives0o'
Liberals 2S. These figures have been re-
versed as result of to-day's election, the
Liberals having elected fifty members
with q probability of So, and the Conserva-
tives about 20. Among the prominent
Conservatives defeated are g. a. Nantei'
commissioner of public works, and Louis
Beaubin. commissioner of agriculture
The issues of the campaign were for the
most mart local. The Liberals fought hard
for power. telling the voters that a victory
fon their party in Quebec would strengthen
tba hands of the French-Canadian prem
lar. Wnfred Laurier. Clerical influence
nlaved only a small part in Inc election
although a number Of the Liberals elect
"a openlv pledged themselves TO secure
free nublic schools to be controlled by the
naonle alone. and in this way out-agonized
~ eclergv in several parts of the pro-
vince Roth parties were pledged to an eX-
tension of the public school system In the
nrovince and the expenditure OF much
larger sum of money for this purpose than
hos heretofore been expended. The vic
tory Of the Liberals in this province to-day
,,ts that party in control of the provin-
ciaI legislatures of all the great provinces
of the dominion, as well as the uomihloh
eovernment itself.

DESPERATE.
John A. Ccler, Of Glencoe, Pa, Jumps
From a Rapidly Moving Train in
In an Effort to Kill Himself.

Baltimore, Md, May 11.-John A.
Coler, of Glencoe, Pa, under sentence
to serve fifteen years in the Maryland
penitentiary for forging Union Pacific
bonds, made a desperate and probably
successful attempt to commit suicide
to-day by jumping from an express
train on the Baltimore ana Ohio rail-
way while the train was going at full
speed Coler was sentenced yesterday
in Cumberland, Md, and almost imme-
dately after took poison in the Jail, but
was pumped out and a deputy sheriff
started this morning to bring him to
Baltimore. He was handcuffed to the
deputy, but made an excuse to leave his
seat, and upon returning struck his
captor terrific blow with his manacled
hand and before he could be stopped
sprang through a window. The train
was stopped and Coler was found lying
beside the track unconscious. The
physicians at the Maryland general hos
ptal say he sustained injuries which
will probably prove fatal. He had pre-
viously served nine years in another
State for forgery.
