from Havana: ''At Madon, Matanzas
province, the Spanish troops attacked a
Cuban hospital, killing % wounded ana
sick Cubans, who had surrendered on a
promise to be held as prisoners, after a
defense of half an hour or more. Inc
Government troops fired the buildings

pacifcos near there came out afterWaru
and buried them, sending word to Havana
of the outrage Col. Marston, an lnsur-
gent leader, Texan, by the way, on near
ing of it promptly hanged thirteen span
ish guerrillas whom he had captured the
day previous, and whom he had intended
releasing and sending back to their camp.
All through Santa Clara province the IN
surgents are busy raiding the towns ana
doing much harm to the Government sta
tons, commissaries and stock yards. Inc
railroad lines have been broken up ana
the troops are constantly on the march,
keeping the communication open between

Mine Was to Use Blacks.


The power house of the Federal Coal
Company, operated by 3. w. Powers, at
Federal, Pa, on the Pittsburg, Charters
and Youghiogheny Railroad. was destroy
ed by fire. The flames spread rapidly and
great difficulty was experienced in saving
the tipple. There seems to be no doubt
that the fire was the work of incendiaries,
as three men were seen running down the
railroad few minutes before the flames
were discovered. Since the strike was
started Mr.. Powers has made himself I'M
popular by threatening to import colored
men and start his mines. The Federal
mines were operated by machinery. The
loss was $1,000. Striking miners are ac-
cused of poisoning the mules in Sterling
mine No. 1, at Hastings, Pa. One mule
has died, another is missing and four more
are extremely sick. The company is re-
ported to have had the carcass of the dead
one examined, with the result of proving
it's death was due to poison. 1t is under
stood the mine will be closed down and
the tracks removed. 1t is one of the larg-
est mines in Hastings and is the one at
which the men and Superintendent Mich
olson have had so much trouble.

early morning the mercury climbed stead

the southwest all day, but it did nothing
to relieve the intense heat, for it was as
hot as the air from a furnace. There

ROUTED BY WOMEN.
Foreigners Who Take Strikers Places
Attacked with Stones and (1ubs.


The first attempt to start any of the
coal mines in the Pittsburg district was
made at the Champion mines of Robbins
Il Co., near Mcdonald, Pa, on the Pan
handle Railway, Friday morning. Two
carloads of foreigners, gathered up from
about Pittsburg, were sent to the Cham
pion mines about daylight and put to work
loading slack into the cars. The miners
heard of the arrival Of the new men and
500 women marched on the mine. The
new men were attacked with stones and
clubs and driven from the cars. The
women followed them up, and the foreign
ers, without resisting, fled to Noblestown.
The mob then returned to Mcdonald and
dumped the slack that had been loaded
from the cars. They were met by LOCO
strikers, and headed by band marched
a short distance from the mine, where
they encamped, watching for the return Of
the nOn-uniOn miners. The company Off
Gals say they are determined to load the
slack and conflict is expected if the new
men are brought back to the mine.

SHE HELPED ROB A BANK.
Capture of Cora Hubbard, the Girl
Member of the Dalton Gang.

Capture of Cora Hubbard, the Girl
Member of the Dalton Gang.
Cora Hubbard, alias "the Kid" is the
newest of new women. She was one Of
the most active participants in the bank
robbery at Pineville, Mo-, last Tuesday,
and when finally captured was even calm
er than the officers who had her in charge.
Though only 25 years of age, Cora has a
record as bad man." She was mem
Der Of the notorious Dalton gang, with
whom she rode in male attire, and after
her arrest a revolver was found in her
possession inscribed with the name Of Bob
Dalton. How many men she has killed
in her career or how many raids she has
been engaged in, may never be known.
Her home is at Weir City, Kan. She
resides with her parents, who are well
aware of the lawless life she has been
leading. Cora was captured Saturday at
her fathers home Her brother, Bill
Hubbard who planned the raid on the
bank, was also taken into custody, and
they were at once hurried to Pineville.
The quartet secured $5S923, but of this
amount $124.5O was lost by the robbers in
their flight and has been recovered. I'M
mediately after the raid a posse of clti-
Zens organized and followed in swift pur-
suit Cora Hubbard's horse was shot
from under her, but she managed to es-
cape. White Tennison, another robber,
was desperately wounded after being pur-
sued as far as Southwest City, I. T., and
it was he who gave the names of his ac-
completes. On the day of the raid Cora
was dressed as cowboy. She held the
horses while the other robbers looted the
bank, and in the subsequent chase she
took an active part in the shooting. Cora
Hubbard and Tennison admit their guilt.
