GARClA'S GREAT VICTORIES.
The Cuban General Defeats the
SpaniardS With Heavy Loss.

Key West, Fla, Ian. 19.-m direct
contradiction of the stories of Spanish
victories which Weyler is sending ont.
adviccs received here from reliable cores
pondents in Cuba tell of brilliant suc-

The most notable of these instrgent vic

advanced to the attack, but the Cubuns
poured in such IL whitening fire that the
Spaniards broke and fled in disorder
Segurl reformed mis- broken columns and
again led them 10 the attack, hut they
were again repulsed by the deadly fire of
the Cubans.
In repelling this second charge. the
Cubans used their Hotchllss field pieces
with terrible execution, great swaths be
ing cut i'll the ranks of the Spaninrt!s. A
third time Scgura, who seems to have
lost his head by reason of the repeated
rcpulscs, attempted TO lead his troops
against tEe Cuban Insurgents, but the
Spaniards refused to follow. Instead,
many of them threw down their guns and
swore they would fight no longer under
an officer who so wantoniy sacrificed his
men. In the two charges the Spaniaris
lost $50 men killed and nearly 100 wound
ed. OF the SpaniariS killed over twenty
were officers.

Ivy the Cubans last Thursday, when GEN
cral Rivera, successor to Antonio Mnceo
in Pinar del Rio, attacked the trocha
near Artemisia, where II considerable
body of Spanish troops are stationed.
Rivera'S forces attacked about dawn, and
the Spaninrds were taken completely by
surprise. The Cubans charged and re.
charged through the Spanish camp, cut
ting down the troops with their machetes.
The sound of the heavy firing caused
the Spanish commander to seud II strong
