RIOT IN HAVANA.
Another Bloody Encannter Between
Cubans and Spaniards.

HAVANA Dec. 26.-Chfistmas day
was ushered in in Havana by the
cracking of revolvers and rafting vol
leys from Mauser rifles, in an affray
which occurred near the center of the
city between the Spanish troops garri-
sol.ing the city and the Cuban resi-
dents.
One Cuban was fatally wounded, two
others were badly injured, and Span
ish soldier was stabbed. A Cuban
negro, who received three wounds
made by Mauser bullets and a bayonet
cut across his forehead, and who was
taken to the emergency hospital, is re-
ported to be dying.
The affair was brought on by the
Cubans, who fired from a housetop on
a company of soldiers asleep in the
Hotel Roma.
The soldiers sprans to their feet and
at once returned the fire. A company
of infantry scaled the low wall on one
side of the building and hunted over
the roof tops for the individuals who
had begun the firing. They found a
negro badly wounded and carried him
down. Other injured men We're car
ried away by their friends.
The volley from the Mausers caused
great alarm among the Americans,
many fearing that fighting would be-
come general throughout the city.

Cuban Enthusiasm Threatens Sc
rious Trouble I'm Havana.
CHICAGO, Dec. Pa special cen
sored cable from Havana says:
R1oting began at Montserrat to-
hight. A battalion of Spanish troops
hurried from the barracks on the Par
do to Galiano street the dividing line
between Cuban and Spanish territory.
Order was restored, but, in the firing
that occurred before the troops arrived,
an eight-year-old Cuban child was
killed by a stray bullet.
Spanish territory in the New World
is now limited to narrow strip of
land between Havana harbor and Ga
liano street. The flags Of Cuba libre
and the United States are waving
within two blocks of the Pardo. q. great
boulevard which runs through the
center Of Havana Montserrat having
been evacuated, the place was alive
today with Cubans and people from
the United States. The scene enacted
at Cerero and Vedado last week and
at Jesus del Monte was repeated to-
day at Montserrat. There was even
a greater demonstration, for Montser-
rat comes almost to the city. Some Of
the flags leaped across the dividing
line and waved on the Spanish side.
The celebration, which began on
Christmas night, today reached its
height. Crowds of men and women
waving Cuban and American flags and
carrying branches Of trees patrolled
the streets, shouting and singing. Many
Americans went over to see the dem
onstration. They did not remain long.
Owing to the intense enthusiasm. the
populace insisted on kissing the
brave Americanos," whether thew
wanted to be kissed or not
Several affrays took place between
the Spanish residents and the Cubans.
A grocery keeper on Oquendo street
refused to put out the Cuban colors
and was beaten almost to death with
sticks. AS evening came on the demon
stration becaE3e noisier than ever. as
many of the negroes parading were
drunk and greatly excited The Amerf-
cans became fearful of another clash
with the Spanish troops like that
which ushered in Christmas day.
francisco Luientos, Spanish volun-
teer, patrolling the street near the
Prado, was fired at from a house top
and killed. A Cuban was killed In an
other part of tse city. Half a dozen
Cubans and Spaniards were shot or
stabbed in afrrays about the city.
There was a fight between Cubans
and Spaniards in front Of the United
States club at midnight. Several of the
participants were badly cut with
machetes.
Many Americans soldiers who are in
town have behaved so boisterously that
Gen. Ludlow says he is sorry they were
permitted to come into Havana, and
that in future none would be admitted
except on strictly military business.

Will Not Give Up Their Lands I'm

SPOKANE, Wash, Dec. 26.-The govern
ment has run against snag in alloting
lands in severalty on the Colville Indian
reservation, peopled by 800 Indians.
Indian Agent Anderson and Alloting Agent
Harry Humphrey have been trying for some
time to allot the lands, but have met with
resistance the Indians baing opposed to sur
veys and allotments unless the government
pays them for the land as the Nez PerceS
and Cour d'Alenes were paid for theirs.
There are about 1,5eoGoO acres on the
reservation, and the contention of the gov
ernment is that the Indians have no title
to it. The government proposes to allot
eighty acres to each Indian, in severalty, and
give them nothing morr. The Indians, led
by Chief Aura Paghuin and Chief Bernard
demand that they be paid about s., 500, ,000
claiming this under the report of a COM
mittee which examined into the matter some
time after the reservation was set apart by
Gen. Grants proclamation in July, 1872.
A truce has been secured on the promise
that the two chiefs will be taken to Wash
ington this winter by Agent Anderson to
see the president. Under the truce, surveys

with respect to the conditions attend
ing and resulting from the peace ne
gotiations
With respect to the frequently re-
peated statement in press dispatches
that the sentiment of the powers, with
the exception of England, was opposed
to the United States and looked with
disfavor upon the attitude of this gov
ernment in dealing with Spain, Sen
ator Frye said:
II saw no evidence of such senti-
ment existing outside Of France, and
in France that sentiment appeared in
sentiment of the nation nor of the
people generally"
do you think there will be an early
restoration of cordial relations between
Spain and the United States?"
''I think that very soon after the
ratification of the peace treaty and the
restoration of diplomatic relations
there will be no difficulty about negoti-
ating commercial treaties and treaty
for the release of prisoners and such
other matters directed toward the per-
feet restoration of diplomatic relations
between the two governments. do
not believe that the Spanish govern
ment will be at all disposed to keep up
unfriendly feeling between the two
governments. The making of new
treaties adapted to the present condi-
tions would be better than would be
the restoration of the old treaties, some
features of which were obsolete
What has been published with re-
spect to the treaty of peace seems to
indicate, does it not. that this govern
ment is not committed by these nego-
tiations with reference to the future
disposition of the territory, the Spanish
sovereignty over which has been re-
linquished?"
cit indicates very strongly that this
government is not committed in any
way whatever with respect to the dis
position and government of these ISL
ands. If we are insane enough to do
so, we night give them all back to
Spain after the ratification of the
treaty. If we were fools we might di-
vide them up among the other foreign
powers The whole matter is left in
the hands of congress. Congress can
make any disposition of the islands 1T
sees fit. The ratification of the treaty
will not in any way curtail any privi-
leges Of ours in this direction
