BARRED BY GEN. BLANCO
AMERICAN CORRESPONDENTS NOT
PERMITTED IN HAVANA.
Their Arrival Deemed InOppOrtune
and Liable to Cause Trouble
Provisions for the City.

HAVANA, Aug. 1S.-Yesterday there ar
rived from Key West correspondents of the
New York Evening Post, the Journal and
Advertiser, the Chicago Record and an
other newspaper correspondent. none of
whom was permitted by General Blanco to
land the governor general considering their
arrival here inopportune and inconvenient.
and believing that their presence here be-
fore the arrival of the American peace COM
mission might cause difficulty. The CORE
spondents returned last night to Key West
on board the schooner Adams.
The San Quentin battalion has arrived at
Finar del Rio with one thousand head of
cattle.
One hundred Americans, who landed at
Maria Gorda on the 18th inst, after a con-
ference with the leaders Gayo and Lazo,
| re-embarked. They afterwards sent sup
ply of hard tack sufficient for eight days
to the leader Varona. A majority of the
rebels in that province are nearly naked
and entirely without shoes. They requested
the Americans to provide them with clothes,
etc.
Rebel bands under leaders Payaso and
PeDo Guerra encamped on the 18th near the
city of Pinar del Rio. Several passengers
saw them, but were not attacked.
The station chief of Cabezas, in the Ma
tanZas province, reports that on the 18th
inst. that place was attacked and a brisk
musketry fire was kept up for an hour, but
no damage was done. Reports from Jovel-
lanos, Matanzas province, say that on the
18th inst. twelve armed insurgents appeared
at the plantation Soedad, from which they
drove away thirty-four oxen, after machet-
ing number of guerilleros. They were
pursued bY a SDaniSh Guerilla force hut
were not overtaken The governor of Ma
tanzas has dismissed the civil government
secretary, who has made complaint to the
colonial secretary of justice.
Reports from Matanzas state that torpe-
does and other defenses of the harbor were
removed on the night of the 18th inst and
that the Punta Maya lighthouse was re-
lighted. The captain of this port has au-
thorized pilots to take into port all vessels,
and fishermen are allowed to leave the har-
Dor at any hour. A quantity of merchandise
which arrived yesterday has not been sold,
owing to difference regarding prices be-
tween sellers and buyers.
AT o'clock this morning there arrived
from Key West the schooner Irene with a
cargo of provisions.
Last night the city was again illuminated
with the electric lights when had been sus-
pended during the blockade. The Plaza de
ArmaS and the parks, after a period of long
obscurity, presented a splendid sight. They
were filled with persons of both sexes. The
theaters were full. The arrival of Ameri-
can steamers with provisions and mails is
awaited with Impotence. Many soldiers
who have not heard from their relatives for
at least month are anxiously awaiting
the arrival of the Spanish mail steamers
This morning the American bark Mary
land arrived with provisions large and

misunderstanding Indiana Volun-

shipped for some time, the orders to move
are still withheld. There have been many
rumors, but from the best information at
hand it is safe to guess that no troops will
be moved to any place this week. 1t does
not seem to be definite fact that the divi-

ADJUSTMENTS.

In How Hopper was Sidetracked," which
opened at the Park yesterday for the rest
of the week. julie Walters plays much the
same sort of part as in his old play, but
the new comedy is more pretentious. The
first act opens with scene in the Klondike
and ends with a sensational murder and an
explosion. Then the scene shifts to New
England, where Hopper is kept busy for
three acts spelling the efforts of the viii
liam. His company is capable. the situations
in the play are strong and all tend to keep
the audience worked up. Corners and STAN
ley introduce a musical and dancing turn
which is made to fit the action of the piece.
1t is preceded by little pantomime and
trick work that amuses the audience. In
the second act Walters and Louise Level
Ign do a singing speciality preceded by some
rapid-fire conversation which took we'll with
yesterdays audiences A dancing speciality
by Pauline in the third act was we'll re-
ceived. Inc play will continue to-day and
tomorrow and be followed Monday by Full
gora's Star Speciality Company. one of the
best vaudeville organizations on the road.
Robert Downing's plunge into vaudeville
at the close of his last season caused almost
as much comment among actors as if Julia
Marlowe had signed to give the potion
scene from Romeo and Juliet at Roster &
Balls. Downing, the tragedian with rep
ertory of classic plays and a starring repu-
tation from one end to the other of the
country, being sandwiched between a dane
ing Soubrette and a black-face team on the
variety stage caused the .'legits TO snlver
for the dignity of their profession. 1t
turned out that many of the naughty stars
who frowned on Downings venture ohiy
needed some one to blaze the way. Within
a few weeks after Downing had made the
plunge, both Frederick Warde and Robert
Mantell were doing their turns on the
vaudeville stage, and glad of the opportuni-
IS. Downing has always been aggressive,
both an actor and as a business man. He
was the first star to employ woman press
agent to go in advance of his company.
The advance sale for Downing's engage
ment at Englishs next week, under the
auspices of the knights of Pythias, opened
yesterday and there was lively demand
for seats. The knights of Pythias enter
tainment committee, which is interested in
DoWnings engagement, desires 1t known
that the advance sale is principally for
the accommodation of city people, who are
expected to secure their seats before the
great rush of knights. The experience at
previous encampments has been that the
theater is quickly sold out after the thou
sands of knights arrive.
Manager Robert Fulgora has a number Of
the best vaudeville artists in the country in
his Star Speciality Company coming TO the
Park next week. Prominent among them
are Mr.. and Mrs. Arthur Sidman, in a COM
edy sketch entitled, "A Bit of Real Life"
The Empire box Office will remain open
all week and tickets can be secured for Ir-
