HAVANA, via Key West, Fla, Dec. o.
All the best-informed persons deny that
Aranguren was killed with Ruiz. On the
contrary there is good authority for the re-
port that Immediately after Ruiz was
macheted Aranguren was promoted from the
rank of colonel to that of brigadier. He de-
ivered the temporary command of his force
20 his first officer and went to the camp Of
Gen. Alexandra Rodriguez to inform him of
the execution of Ruiz, after which he re-
turned and took charge of his troops Cen
eral PandO had written to Captain General
Blanco to say that all the commissioners
who have been sent to the inSurgent camps
proposing peace with autonomy have failed,
and that therefore no other course is open
than to finish the war with war.

against the killing of Lieutenant Colonel
Rulz, SeLor Marcos Garcia says also that

HAVANA. Dec. 22.-Agripino Ortiz, the

had been exchanged between them. Ruiz,
he says, was very arfectionately received
and. after breakfasting together, and con-
versing privately for an hour, they went
with guides to Sierra Jaruco. Ortiz does
not know what occurred afterward, but
says that he does not believe that Colonel
Aranguren betrayed the ntEuSt reposed in
him by Ruiz. lie thinks that, owing to
a difference existing between Aranguren
and the insurgent leader, Rafael DE Car

The Murder of Ruiz Condemned.

NEW YORK, Dec. 22.-Senor Dupuy de
LONE. the Spanish minister. who is in town,
gave out to-day the contests of q cable
gram from Senior Jose Congosto, secretary
of the government in Cuba which includes
the following telegram from Senior Marios
Garcia, autonomist governor of the province
of Santa Clara, to General Blanco:
Not in my official capacity, but as
Cuban autonomist, / condemn, with all the
force of my soul, the cruel act of villainy
perpetrated on the defenseless and chival-
rous Lieutenant Colonel Ruiz. by a body
of men who claim to be Cubans and who
say they aim at the independence, not the
liberty of Cuba The moment has arrived
when the immediate majority of the CUBAN
people, under the new legal rule of liberty
and law, protests as one man against the
acts of devastation and cruelty which are
an opprobrium to civilization. a scandal to
the laws of society and d denial of all re-
spect to human feelings.
Senior Marcos Garcia was a colonel under
Maxine Gomez in the ten years war. Lieut..
Col. Ruiz was not an aid to General Blan-
co. He belonged to the royal engineers
and held a civil position as head of the
Havana water works. He organized the
Havana volunteer firemen on American
principles and at one time was at the head
of the corps He had frequently been i'm

toward the bay, evaded the customs officers

NEW YORK, Dec. 22.--Gen. Emilio Nunez,
member of the staff of General Gomez,
and veteran of the ten years war, arrived
in New York to-day from Cuba. THE
death of Ruiz said General Nunaz, was
one of the fortunes of the war, but the
Spaniards in their desperate extremity are
seeking to make it appear that it was the
act of savages and not an act of civilized
warfare, and with the extraordinary facil-
tiles they possess for dissemination Of any
sort of news that will help bolster up their
tottering cause, they have succeeded i'll
creating, temporarily, a false impression.
Permit me to quote to you from the military
code of Spain, in which it is provided that
whatsoever shall attempt to induce any
officer, or any soldier, or any body OF
troops to join the enemy, or to desert his
flag in time of war, shall be deemed guilty
of treason and the code provides that the
offender shall be first degraded in his Of
flee and then suffer death. The regulation
is practically a copy of similar clause In
the military code of France.
I'm your own military regulations it is
provided that any officer or soldier of the
enemy who advises or efdeavorS to per-
suade any officer or soldier of the United
States to desert the service of the United
States in time of war, shall be deemed
worthy of death. These are the rules that
give complete justification to I3rigadier Ar
anguren for his act. Ruiz was not killed
under a flag of truce, but as a spy, warned
beforehand not to enter the lnSurgent lies,
and fully aware of the consequences that
would follow violation of the order"
