KILLS WITHOUT MERCY.
Fearful Atrocities Committed by the Span
ish Colonel. EondeYiela.

New York, Jan. 8.-Antonio Aguero, a
member of the Havana produce ex-
change. arrived here by the steamer
Orizaba from Havana. He was a resi-
dent Of Guanabacoa, where. according
to recent reports from Havana, atroci-
ties were committed by the Spanish
troops under Colonel Fondeviela. SEN
or Aguero said:
THE reports which are sent to the
United States of the state of affairs in
Guanabacoa are far from telling the
whole truth. Colonel Fondeviela has
instituted a reign of terror at the place.
His name is well known to the Ameri-
can press as that Of the most blood
thirsty officer of General Weyler's COM
mand. He is a favorite of the captain
general and has been appointed mill
tary commander of Guanabacoa, just
across the bay from Havana. Fully
800 families have left the town and
moved to Havana since his taking Of
flee. People are taken from their homes
at night and killed with machetes in
the outskirts of the city The world is
then made to believe that such people
were leaving their homes to join the
rebels, who swarm in the neighborhood
II know of thirty-nine persons who
have thus been done away with. Even
honest Spaniards warned me that my
name was on list with more than 200
more, kept by Fondeviela, as men
marked by him for secret execution as
rebel sympathizers. Being a thorough
ly neutral man, and having good
friends among Cubans and Spaniards
alike, / managed to obtain my pass
port for the United States. I owe my
escape from Fondevielas clutches to
my Spanish friends, for whom I feel
the greatest era titude"
