MES"
Friends of the insurgent cause, while
not Disguised with the new Cabinet. say
they ale not satisfied with an autonomy
which arrives after the island has been
ruined and the insurgents have sacrificed
many lives.
"A well known American, who has long
resided in the island, expressed the opin-
ion that real differences exist among the
resident Spaniards as to the desirability
of autonomy. Ee believes it will not
prove satisfactory to the radical element
among the Spaniards in Cuba. After
autonomy has been granted and peace
is proclaimed, he believes, the radical
element will probably try to promote
another instruction. In that event the
Conservative element and the producing
body of the Spanish population at once
demand annexation to the United States.
This view is adhered to by many resi-
dent Spaniards of prominence
The rumor that Marshal Martinez
Campos would probably be re-appointed
to command in Cuba gave satisfaction
TO the native islanders, out the Spaniards
openly expressed their disapproval as
they consider that his weakness was the
original cause of the revolt. They hold
Campos responsible for the extension
of the instruction into western Cuba.

Ottawa. Ont, Oct. 6.-The Canada
Atlantic Railway has not yet been able
to get to Casselman on account of the
fire which started in that vicinity yester-
day and which ragged all night. The
Nation River, small stream, passes
through Casselman and the woodwork of
the iron bridge over it has been burned
down. Details of the damage done are
still meagre but it is known that three
villages, Casselman, South Indian and
Cheney, have all been swept away.
The people of Casselman, about five
hundred, are reported aas huddled to-
gether on the rocks on the river without
sufficient clothing or anything to eat.
At South Indian, which has a popula-
ton of four or FIVE hundred there are
only three or four houses standing. South
Indian is several miles from Casselman.
Cheney, another small village, was burn
ed down. The fire covered distance of
about Is miles. Casselman had 70 or
100 residences, lumber mill, grist mill,
furniture factory and several other bus
mess places of Importance. Assistance
is being forwarded to the homeless from
Ottawa and a fund has been started.
-Four bodies have been recovered near
South Indian as a result of the forest
fires. They are those of Mrs. Leyille,
Miss STILES, her sister and Mrs.
Leville's two children, one an infant and
the other II years old The women
rushed from their house to escape to the
clearing, but the smoke surrounding
them, they lost their way and ran into
flames. Had they remained in their
dwelling at South Indian they would
have been perfectly safe, as it was not
touched by the fire.

Havana, Octo 6.-Via Key West,
Florida-El Diaro De La Marina, the or
gan of the reform party, commenting on
the new Spanish Cabinet, in its leading
editorial to-day, says:
"The fall of the headless and discon-
certed Conservative party means trans
ition from dark night to sunny day;
it means a radical transformation of
method. Public opinion had received
the tidings with great satisfaction, as
indicating the establishment of peace.
The list of ministers is a clear indication
that the platform of the new Cabinet is
pure and logical autonomy for Cuba.
We have absolute confidence in prompt
re-establishment of peace. The rise in
Spanish securities in Europe shows that
the public in Spain and abroad has great
confidence in Senior Sagasta's Cabinet"
The Union Constitutional, the organ
of the Conservative party, says:
"The change in the Spanish Cabinet is
of minor Importance, as all true Span
iards must have the same patriotism in
defending the high ideals of the nation."'
Eel Pals, the organ of the AutOnomist
party, says it sympathizes with the new
Cabinet for having declared in favor of
autonomy and hopes Senior Sagasta. will
