''The Republican managers to-day In
the Northwest fear the growth of the
Populist party. Senator Chandler's
warning to his party was only an echo of
that fear which pervades Senators and
Representatives from that section OF the
country. They know that any effort on
the part of Republicans to retire the
greenbacks would mean their defeat in
The next election. The same might be
said of the Democrats Of the South. If
the Populist influence on politics in that
section were withdrawn there is no doubt
in my mind that they would soon drop
back into the old Democratic rut. The
Populist party shows every indication of
n healthful body polite and is daily in
creasing. They have no idea of surren-
dering or disbanding." "a

SPAAIARDS DIsAEARTENED.
Gen. Pando and 0thar Officials
Said to be Discouraged.

Havana, via Key Wesc, Jan. B.-The

with one thousand men from Santa Clara
province, has entered Matanzas province,
near Havana, and is supposed to be on
the way to reunite with the concentre ted

Suarez and Cepero, in Havana province.
1t is reported from Santiago de Cuba
that General Pando is greatly disheart-
ened on account of the obstacles which
prevented successful campaign against
the Insurgents in that province. He de-
clares that he has no base of operation;
the insurgents control is so complete
that il is i'm possible to convey supplies to
Spanish columns operating in the iDte-
rior of the province. General Pando is
said to te convinced that the insurgents
of Santiago de Cuba province will not &C
cept autonomy. When he was in Spain
he did not realize that the insurgents in
the province had such strength.
1t is said that General Sagua, operat-
ing in Santiago de Cuba, has been unable
to agree with his superior officers, and on
the preteNt that he is sick has arrived in
Havana, and will return to Spain by the
first mail steamer.
Ex-Minister Canalejas, the Madrid ed
itor who has been investigating the situa-
ton in Cuba. is said to he thoroughly
discouraged with the outlook. He will
return to Spain shortly, the sudden death
of his sister being given as the reason for
Fastening his departure.
Senior Capules, governor of Santiago lie
Cuba, has resigned, being unwilling to
make appointments dictated TO him by
the government through General Pando.
The military commander, Oliver, is act
ing in Capules' place.
