LEADER SURRENDERS.

HAVANA, Jan. 2.-Slnce Fonsdeviela
was appointed military governor of
Guanabacoa, peace has reigned in that
suburban town and greater confidence
exists among persons loyal to the
Spanish government. The insurgents
have apparently ceased their attacks
upon the town, and the uneasiness of
the inhabitants caused by the continu-
al firing at night has evidently ceased.
Gen. Weyler from Bayato encamp-
ment, issued two edicts dated on New
Years day. These edicts prohibit the
existence and sale of hardware, sad
dlery. clothing, provisions and medi-
cines in towns where Notifications do
not exist The second edict orders the
formation Of ''cult waited zone" around
the larger towns. A piece Of ground
will be allotted free Of charge 10 the
different families there assembled.

urer of the province of Santa Clara by
the so-called insurgent president, Cis-
neros. is reported He left Santiago
some time ago for the purpose of de-
livering to Maceo documents written
by Gomez. He asserts that they are
naked, sick and without horses. Al
dereto is sure that Maceo was killed.
He claims that he has not been we'll
treated by Maceo and Gomez. He is
also of the opinion that DR.. Zertucha
was not well treated by Maceo. Al
dereto adds an account of how the sec
retary Of Julio Sanguilly, Gerardo Per-
tela, was deserted by Maceo, while
suffering from a ball wound in his
ankle. Aldereto says he came from
Santiago by sea, and that this is q
favorite route Of travel for any of the
insurgents.

in shoal water, her upper parts being
above water. She left here in a, hurry
and in a poor condition.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla, Jan. 2.-The
steamer Commodore, which cleared
from this port for Cienfuegos, Cuba, on
Thursday with a cargo of arms and
ammunition, foundered off New Smyr-
ma at an early hour this morning
Twenty eight men were on board of the
steamer, and so far as known only
twelve were saved. One boat was
washed ashore empty and another one
landed with the twelve men. The Com
modore carried two other boats, but
these have not been heard from. The
steamer is reported to have sunk
about twenty miles out to sea. The
Commodore struck twice while cross
ing the bar at the mouth of the river
and had been leaking almost from the
start.
Maj. Ricardo Delgado, one of the
crew, arrived here this evening on the
train from New Smryna, accompanied
by eleven other survivors, all being
Cubans. Maj. Delgado was met at the
train by Maj. Huahu, the Florida rep
resentative of the Cuban junta, to
whom he told the story Of the wreck
Delgado reported that he was awak-
ened about IL o'clock Friday night by
the report that the steamer was leak
ing. The pumps would not work, and
the men set to work to bail the steam
er out. This proved Intellectual, and
soon the engineer reported that it was
impossible to go any further, as the
water had put out the fires in the en-
gines. The Commodore was then twen-
ty miles out to sea and was running
toward Mosquito light. The boats were
lowered, and Delgado and twelve
others got into one boat and pulled
away. The sea was rought. 1t was
$3.50 a. m, everything being dark. Del
gado was Of the impression that the
other boats were lowered at the same
time, but he was not certain. He knew
nothing about the sinking of the steam
er or whether any others than those in
his boat were saved
Stephen Crane was with Capt Muir
ply in one of the boats. They have
not been heard from.

NASHVILLE, Tenn, Jan. "A de-
structive fire, which started in Lebeck' S
dry goods store, is not yet under con-
troll. The block on the outside of the
public square, in which the fire orig
mated, has been gutted. Ten build
irgs have been entirely or partially
consumed On the public square the
south end of the city market house

sparks and was consumed. The fire is
now in the rear of important banking
and business houses on College street.
and 1t now seems impossible to check
it's progress before several, If not all,
of these buildings are burned. A rough
estimate Of losses so far suffered is

ter of the dry goods and the banking
districts, is where the fire Is raging.

Just as surely as the days roll
round, there will come a time this
season when the pastures will begin
to fail and the rich juice of spring and
early summer pass away. Then the
flow of milk will be shortened and the
dairy-man's source of revenue will be
greatly curtailed, unless he makes
some provision to supplement the
grass of his pastures. The extent of
this failure which takes place in the
pastures will, of course, depend in
great part upon the rain supply. The
more deficient the fall, the more Sc
we're will be the shortage in grass.
Now is the time to look out for
crops to piece out the pastures; and
what change has come over the
spirit of our dreams in this respect
within the last few years. 1t is not
SO long ago but that most of us re-
member that most men laughed at
the thought of feeding their cows in
the summer or fall. Once they had
turned their herds out to grass, they
expected them to take care of them
