HAVANA. Nov 22.-Reports received
here from Matanzas say that the
conservatives. having become enraged
at the change in the governments
policy, are disturbing public order. Ex-
Mayor Crespo initiated the dsorderly
conduct by publicly giving offense to
5enor Armas, the new civil governor of
the province. The chief of police fol-
lowed Gre pos lead by endeavori ng TO
prevent aid being given to the suffering
reconcentrados by newspaper CORES
pondents and others. Of the reconcen-
trados in Matanzas, numbering less
than 30, 090, 70 died in two days, large
proportion of which were the result of
starvation. In Jaruco about 30 per
cent of the deaths are caused by starya-
ton. and the same is true of many
other towns. Owing to the lack of
proper clothing and of blankets the sit
uation of the reconcentrados is becom-
ing worse as the winter season ap-
proaches, despite the efforts made to
relieve them.
Marshal Blaneo has appointed "a new
employees at the custom house. Of
these, five are native Cubans, and the
remainder Spaniards and reformists.
The autonomists are greatly disguised
by these APP ointments.
Sixty persons employed about the
docks and others in various parts of the
island have joined the revolutionists,
and number of prisoners at Guines,
who were pardoned under the recent
proclamation. have returned to the in
surgents.
Smallpox is ravaging in the neighbor-
hood of the insurgent headquarters in
Piner Del Rio. and there are in the hos
pitfalls in the hills LOO persons suffer-
ing from the disease.
The financial situation of the military
administration is bad. The soldiers
have not been paid in eight months
There is a scarcity in the meat supply
for the hospitals. and in many towns
no meat has been obtainable for many

Williams was sitting on homemade

in the doorway the immovable figure

wanted in the room and he would not

which lay IN the way.
The ball missed Williams foot by
about half an inch. passed thro gh a

bedded itself in the brain of Albert
Eldridge, who was sleeping in his bunk
below.
Banks laughed. Then he fiourished
the revolver. And 1 guess I'll kill
every nigge. here. he replied.
With this he walked to the other side
of the room. where Edgar Jones was
sitting. Jones saw him coming and
started up in alarm. As he did so
Banks placed the revolver against his
heart and pulled the trigger There
was click as the revolver failed to ex-

struck the trembling negro with his
fist, and he dropped to the floor, culver
ing and chattering with terror.
He then departed and made his es-

him.
