have occurred while the insurgents
were confined in the woods near Guam
tanamo.
One day during the first week of the
Instruction the insurgents, mum berlug
about seventy-five men, having been on
the move for twenty-fOur hours with
out Sleep laid down to rest on their
arms. A young mulatto was posted
to do guard duty for the party. He
had not been stationed long when he
heard a troop of $3.50 Spanish cavalry
approaching. Without hesitating he
rushed to the very front Of the line
and, waving both arms, cried, Run
for your lives, A hundred insurgents
to the left: hundred to the right
The Spaniards were terror stricken in
a moment, and, without waiting to as
certain the truth of the boys asser-
ton, dashed into the woods and out OF
sight.
The continued delay of the reinforce
ments in arriving was looked upon by
the rebel sympathiZers as disastrous,
aud an effort was made to induce the
resident Cubans t. join the insurgents
in the Guantanamo woods. But as
share of the fighting men We're of the
stamp who wish most of all to be on
winning side, little could be accom-
plished. With reference to this class
of men, good story is told in the
town of HOlguin Puerto Principe. 1t
seems that some of the rebel women of
this place, who had become thoroughly
tired of the uncalled-for delay, en-
broidered most beautifully a chemise,
and sent it with their compliments to
party OF abled-bodied men who had
failed to go into the field. Along
with the compliments the ladies sent
word that if the men would change
their dress for that of women, and send
in their trousers, spurs and guns, the
senders of the chemise would know
what use to make of them.
AS time wore on and relief failed to
come, the band of insurgents grew
more and more discouraged until they
lost faith in the promises OF help from
outside, and became dem OraliZed. The
fact that they had expected Macao and
Gomez long before did not give them
assurance of any near appearance on
their part and one by one they left the
country, broken in health.
Two weeks later Maceo landed in
Cuba and the tide of events was com
pletely turned.
At present all eyes are turned in
horror on the barbarous war methods
of Gen. Weyler. His policy, so differ
ent from that adopted by the insur-
gents, is gradually having its effect on
| the rebels, and it would not seem
strange if they reciprocated in time.
| AS yet their method of warfare has
| been most humane. The consideration
shown by the Cubaus throughout the
last two years was never more strongly
demonstrated than by an incident
which occurred just before Martinez
Campos left for Spain. A Spanish
| lieutenant surrendered with 80 men.
| Campos ordered him to be shot as a
coward. The Cubans helped him &c
escape to America. He has since Of
fered his services to the insurgents and
is probably now in Cuba.

SENATOR CHANDLER, of New Hamp-
shire does not propose to let the steel
trusts or combines work the rabbit foot
on the government. He proposes to
introduce two bills on the subject. one
directing the government authorities
to take possession Of the great armor
plate factories at Carnegie; Phipps &
Co.. Limited, at Homestead, Pa. and
of the Bethlehem Steel company, at
Bethlehem, Pa, and operate them with
government forces until all the armor
plate needed to equip the new three
battleships had been completed. The
other bill will provide that when the
work is completed suit shall be begun
in the usual way before the court of
claims, for compromising that two COM
panies for the use of their factories,
and that on a report from the court of
claims to congress an appropriation
shall be made to reimburse them.

THE marked effect on the London
stock market-especially upon South
African stocks of the persistent ef-
forts of the English government to
force quarrel with the Beer govern
ment, is significant. The gold fields Of
the Trausvaal would alone be sufficient
to excite British cupidity to the point
of conquering the Transvaal; but now
that geologists have discovered vast
stretches of carboniferous formation
and much good coal in South Africa,
the Beers might as well make
up their minds to become British sub
iectS.
