ARANeUREN's WEAKNESS.
Entrapped While On Visit. to His
Mistress.

Havana, Jan. 2S.-Further details re-
garding the killing of Nestor Arangu-
rem, the insurgent leader kntlva as the
Sheridan of Cuba has beer. received.
They show that Colonel Aranzabo of
the Spanish forces had known for some
time that Aranguren was in the habit
of visiting his mistress in a hut in the
Tapaste hills, and the day before yes
terday he ordered three columns of
troops, reinforced by cavalry, to sur
prise the insurgent chief, with the re-
suit that the latter was shot and killed
with one of his companions. The
troops also captured two women and
the father of Arrangements mistress
who is described as, being the dyna-
inter of the band.
About 1900 persons have visited the
morgue where the body of Aranguren
lies exposed, among them being many
ladies and the uncle of the deceased.
The remains were identified by the chief
of the fire department., and a number
of fremen, as well as by his relatives.
There is considerable comment in the
different circles here at the fact which
is now being pointed out that nearly all
the insurgent chiefs of the province of
Havana have been killed owing to their
visiting their mistresses.
Another fact, which is being COM
mented upon considerably in social cir
cles, is that the bishop of Havana has
visited all the secretaries OF the auton-
OmOus government, while, although two
weeks have elapsed since he did so, the
secretaries have not returned his visit
It is said that the mistress of Aran-
guren and another woman, who were
both wounded when the insurgent chief
was captured, have since died of their
injuries.
Aranguren, it is now stated, was shot
while he was writing. The remains of
will be quietly buried to-
day.
The Spanish authorities say that
among the papers which fell into the
hands of the troops when Aranguren
was killed were his diary showing that
he ordered the execution of Colonel
Ruiz
