tive In Cuba. which Is inexplica hle. con-
sideFing the fayor3ng eircuustances-tAe

the military chiefs are incapable and un-

little of both. Anyway, public opinion Is
unanimous regarding the latter.
Private advicss reveal that a state of

the government organs do not altogether
deny this, to say nothing of the Liberal

THE SPANISH PATROL.
Cuba's shores Carefully watched for
Filibusters-Ihe Daunfiess 90
Aid the Three Friends.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 3.-Fhe Spanish
authorities feel little apprehension from
reported. hlibustering expeditions. owing
10 the thoroughness with which the Gu
ban coast is being patrolled by the Span
ish forces. IL is pointed out that the sue
cess of the expeditions largely depend up
on the ability TO deliver the goods to the
insurgents. and that the mere landing Of
an expedition counts for little. Under the
system established by Gen. Weyler the
movement of any insurgent force toward
the coast is noted as a step toward meet
ing an expedition. The insurgents have no
pack trains nor the ordinary means OF
transportation Of military stores. and are
obliged to receive and carry goods by
hand. In handling boxes OF guns or any
considerable supply Of ammunition a
large number OF men is necessary TO dis
pose of an expedition by hand.
For this reason the approach OF the
Three Friends expedition was made known
to the Spanish commanders by the move
msnt of a large insurgent force toward the
coast. A battle resulted. and the insur-
gents were driven inland. The point at
which the Three Friends subsequently
tried to land was that to which the insur-
gent force was headed. Al present IL is
said. this patrol Is so complete that no
considerable force of insurgents can move
without unmasking the destination of an
expedition. and thus giving ample time
for its apprehension. This Is but one
means of apprehension however. and IL
does not diminish the scouting OF expedi-
tions before their departure
According 10 official advices received
here, the insurgents are In a desperate
condition since the death OF Maceo. The
report that Gomez crossed the Eastern
trocha is apparently disposed OF by the
statement coming from a reliable source
on the island saving that on December
- some time after the date Of the report
ed crossing OF the trocha. Gomez was still
held to the eastward Of that strategic line.
II Is believed also by officials that the in
surgent leader Lacret is either dead or
dangerously wounded The disposal OF
him from the actual field OF conflict is re-
garded as next in Importance to the death
OF Msceo. II is pointed out that the insur-
gent cause is ore depending on leaders,
and that the cause Itself will end with the
disposal OF the leaders.
Close scrutiny is being made by officials
of the circumstances under which the
steamer Dauntless left Jacksonville. The
stated purpose OF the vessel was wreck
ing expedition. and for this no clearance
papers were needed. II is believed. how
ever. by the Spanish authorities that the
Dauntless has gone TO succor the party
which first went on the Three Friends
and falling TO land in Cuba returned TO
No-Name key. of the Florida coast The
information sent here leads to the belief
that after the Dauntiess has taken on
board the party at No-Name key, she will
proceed to Cuba and endeavor to carry
out the expedition which the Three
Friends failed 70 land.

SURPLUS OF TWO MILLIONS.
Encouraging Statements of Govern
ment Accounts for December

WASHINGTON. Jan. 3.-The monthly
comparative statement Of government re-
celpts and expenditures shows the total
receipts in December 10 have been ga
s57.ill. and the expenditures s23,s 1854.
which leaves the surplus for the month
s. 044 40.
This is the second time within the year
that the receipts have exceeded expendi-
tures. The surplus this month is largely
accounted for by partial receipts from the
recent sale OF first mortgage bonds for the
Pacific railroad belonging to the Central
Pacific sinking fund which appears in
the statement as repayment TO civil and
miscellaneous expenditures. Independent
OF the bond tfsnsa sactions'the surplus would
have been about $500 COO.
Receipts from customs In December
amounted 10 $40 77s N2, a gain for the
month Of about $500. 600 Internal revenue
receipts aggregated $53i9o COS. a nominal
gain over November.
