THE RIoTING IN HATIN4.
American Observers sympathiZe With
 the Cuban Population.

Havana, Dec. 14.-(Via Miami, Fla)-
 American observers of the violent scenes
 enacted here on Sunday night sympa-
 thize with the Cuban population over
 the killing of three persons and the
 wounding of others by Spanish soldiers. Nevertheless the American military
 men are unable to do more than they
 have done in securing safe transporta-
 tion to Mariana and in preventing all
 arrests excepting these of three young sters who, however, were afterwards released The shooting was nearly all done by Spanish officers armed with pistols and by officers off duty. Some
 of the shots were fired during the con- f1ict at aggressive Cubans, but most of them were fired at retreating Cubans None of the officers implicated have been brought to account by their su periors.
 It is asserted that the feeling in the Spanish army is one of pleasure that the Cubans gave the Spaniards the oppor- | tunity to kill few of them. The first arrivals of American troops and the dissolution of Spanish sovereignty on all sides of Havana increase the Span | ish bitterness here. The only safety of 1 the Cubans is in their remaining pa | tient for a week or two longer until the Seventh army corps shall have ar rived. The American officers constant | ly urge the Cuban leaders to counsel | silence and self-suppress.on for a while, as the Cubans cannot be protected even | by the moral influence of the Ameri-
 can representatives. Spanish sover- 1 eighty, it is pointed out, is the only | sovereignty here and unless there shall l be an interregnum of anarchy, Spanish authority must remain supreme until, | under the written agreements, the Americans troops shall be here in force and the flag shall have been changed. l Julio Sanguilly feels that General 1 Greene saved his life by objecting to l his proposed arrest by the Spaniards, who aver that he has violated faith in
 coming here while Spanish rule remain ed. General Lancret was also supposed | to be in the hotel at the time the aides | of the captain general went to arrest him. The aides first called on General 1 Greene and at his request the Spanish | officers deferred action. Later the ar
 rangement, as previously cabled, for l the withdrawal of the Cuban leaders | to Mariana, was effected. Lacret, how
 ever, did not go to Mariana. He dis | appeared and under the supcoston
 that he is still in the city the Spaniards
 are still searching for him.

recommendation is based on holding the more important cities, seaports and railroad centers with sufficient force to operate in the vicinity and furnish small garrisons at such other points as may become necessary. This l believe will be the best disposition to make Of our troops when they arrive. Should this be approved the troops at each sta tion should be promptly furnished when asked for by the evacuation committee so as to be at their stations in time to relieve Spanish garrisons and prevent occupation by insurgent troops. l con- slider the number of troops named in the table as the smallest that should be in the island, not including those now in the department of Santiago In fixing this number l have been governed by the following considerations: Cuba is, and for a long time has been, really military camp and governed by the most arbitrary rule. Practically there is no civil government or authority. The Spanish forces consist of about 1lS,0O0 regulars, 21,00O volunteers on duty and 52,000 volunteers armed but no on duty. The insurgents claim to have about 10000 armed men, making a total of 231, ,000 Probably the military evacua- tion by Spain will remove about 100000 men, leaving considerably more than that number who will be or recently have been under arms, to great ex- tent living off the country. Many Of these men will from necessity if not from choice, be without employment.
 The table of proposed stations of the United States troops submitted by General Wade shows a total of 5l,0,O troops distributed as follows: Province of Mantanzas 5000; province of santa ara 10000; province of Puerto Princi- pc 20O0; province of Santiago 1000.
 The towns at which the troops are to be stationed with the numbers are as follows: Gunaja 1000 infantry; Havana 220O infantry and 1000 cavalry; Man tan1as 1000 infantry and 1000 cavalry; Cardenas 10000 infantry; Clenfuegos 2000 infantry and LOCO cavalry; Trini- dad 1000 infantry; Sugua la Grande 1000 infantry; Santa Clara 1000 infan- try; Placetas 1000 infantry; Calbrien and Remedies 1000 infantry; Sanctt Spirltus 1000 infantry; Neuvitas and Puerto Principe 1,C00 infantry and 1,C00 cavalry; Manzanillo 1000 infantry
 The total shows 45 regiments of in fantry and five of cavalry. There is also light artillery as follows: Havana four batteries; Matanzas two batteries.

Charged With Theft of a Diamond.

Henry S. Mackley was arrested last night by Detective McGrath on the charge of theft of a diamond stud from Thomas J. Madden, cashier at Heu- blein's. It is alleged that Mackley en- tered Madden's room last Sunday and took the stud from drawer. It seems that Mackley has represented himself as a government inspector at Win chester's, whereas a matter of fact he worked at Sargent's. The stud was found in his room at No. 513 Chapel street. in the room there were also sev- eral overcoats. Captain Cowles of the detective bureau stated last night that he had received numerous complaints of the losses of overcoats at the Cen tral Y. M. c. A. and at the Yale Y. M. C. A. He said that the overcoat worn by Mackley when he was arrested an- swered the description of one belong ing to son of Judge Roraback, who is now in college and that he will inves- tigate further in this matter to-day.
