CINCINNATI, Jan. A.-The CONNER
cial Tribune special from Key West,
says:
Another defeat for the Spanish is re-
ported from Pelanos, in the Southern
part of Havana province. The place
has 1000 inhabitants, is well fortified,
and has Spanish garrison of 900 men
with one field piece. Lieutenant-Col.
Hernandez, in command of 500 insur-
gent cavalry, made dash at the town
Monday afternoon while the troops
were at church celebrating some local
holiday. Before they could form the
insurgents had possession of the block
house. Cannon was trained on the
church, and before the Spanish were
hardly aware of what was the trouble,
solid shot came hurling through its
walls while cries of Scuba Libre"
filled the air. Out they rushed, only
to fall before deadly volley from a
strong force posted behind lsome
neighboring houses.
Colnel Muncio, the Spanish officer,
bravely rallied his men, but as they
formed for charge, he fell, with a
dozen bullets through him. The Sec
ond in command took his place, but he
too, fell in few seconds time, the
sharpshooters of Hernandez dealing
death with rapidity that rendered
the troops panic-stricken. They
made one more attempt to charge the
blockhouse, but Hernandez cavalry
reserve dashed at them sweeping
through their ranks and cutting a
bloody path with their sharp machetes.
The Spanish then retired, it being
rout, though portion stubbornly pro-
tected their rear, making stands until
forced to retire by Hernandez fierce
charges. After pursuing them nearly
to Cajaio on the coast, the insurgents
withdrew. They burned the forts at
Palanos. The insurgents secured 400
stands of arms, one cannon, $1,000 in
gold and $4,000 in paper money, besides
and many valuable papers
belonging to the Spanish commission
ary department.

was not forthcoming. Here Patterson

SALEM, Jan. 22.-Serious trouble
was threatened this morning when the
Davis organization met, but it was
averted. A number of assistant
sergeant-at-arms sworn in by the Ben
son organization had remained in the
house all night, and when Davis, at
$50, started to ascend the rostrum to
call the house to order, he was stopped
by three of them, who forbade him in
the name of the state of Oregon to as
cend. Davis asked by what authority
they refused to permit him to take
his chair. He was told that they had
been authorized by Speaker Benson to
allow no one to take the chair. Davis
repeated his question, and after it had
again been answered, called on the by
ISLANDERS to witness what had passed.
He then went to the other side of the
rostrum, where the same proceedings
were had.
At this juncture compromise was
effected by permitting Davis to take
his seat on condition that his house
adjourn before the Benson house was
called to order. The roll call showed
only seven members present.
The house then adjourned until 2 P.

Little business Transacted During a Short
Session.

SALEM, Or, Jan. 22-The Benson
house held short session, transacting
only business of a preliminary nature.
Contrary to expectation no formal no.
tice was sent to the senate asking for
recognition. The entire session
seemed to lack ginger. An adjourn
ment was taken until Monday fore
noon, instead of tomorrow, as was done
by the Davis house.
When the hour of 10 o'clock arrived
all the members of the Davis house
who were present withdrew, and
Speaker Benson called his organiza-
tion to order. The roll call showed
81 members present.
Thomas introduced resolution that
the chief clerk and each member of
the house be furnished with code and
house and senate journals and session
laws of the last legislature. The reso-
luton further provided that all these
copies remain the property of the state
and be returned at the end of the ses-
sion. The resolution was adopted by
a vote of "a toe.
Those voting against the resolution
were Bridges, Chapman, Gratke, Hud-
son, Misener and Rigby.
The speaker appointed Lake, Hunt
ington and Bridges committee of
three to prepare schedule of wages
for the officers and employees of the
house. The house. then adjourned till
