GEN. PANDo DISCOURAGED.
Believes Himself Impotent to End
Revolt in Eastern Cuba.

Havana, via Key West Fla, Jan. SIN
innate friends of Gen. Pando says he be-
lieves himself impotent to end the revolt
in Eastern Cuba this year in spite of the
sending of reinforcements from Spain.
During the time he spent on the River
Cauto and at Manzanillo and Santiago de
Cuba he sent several emissaries to the in
surgent camps to propose peace on the
basis of the payment of sums of money
and the appointment TO office in the civil
departments of Rabi, Rios, and other in
surgent chiefs, but they refused to receive
the Spanish emissaries and ordered the civil
authorities to advise Gen. Pando's messen-
gers to return whence they came and not
to return under the penalty of being shot.
Gen. Pando will soon take the field and
will meet the members of the insurgent
cabinet and Gen. Calixto Garza
Intense feeling exists at Santiago de
Cuba because of the dismissal of Senor
Capriles, the civil governor of the prov
ince.
The resignation of Gen. Correa, minister
of war in the Sagasta cabinet is very
much commented upon here.

In response to violent attacks made upon

Spanish generals, the paper El Pueblo
says: THE Spaniards are silent; sleeping

INDIANs BURNED AT THE STAKE
The Redskins Had Outraged and
Murdered IA Woman.

Murdered "a Woman.
Fort Smith, Ark, Jan. S.-Justice In a
more horrible form than that meted out
to Henry Smith at Parts, Tex, was ad-
minlstered by a mob on the oklahoma
border Friday night to ]. Marcus McGeisy
and ]. Palmer Simpson, two Seminole In
dams.
They were charged with murder, their
victim being Mrs. James Simmons a re-
spectacle farmers wife, living in Oklaho-
ma. The crime was a most revolving one
and the criminals we're punished in a most
revolving manner
Mrs. Simmons was outraged and muir
dered The body was horribly mutilated
The crime resembled in atrocity those per-
petrated in the Creek nation by the infa-
nous Buck gang, the members of which
were hanged at Fort Smith two years ago.
The murder and mutiaton of Mrs. Sim
mons so enraged the neghborhood that
the entire populace turned out to hunt
down and punish the guilty parties.
They trailed the Indians to the home Of
McGe,sy, across the line In the Indian ter
ritory, where McGeisy and Simpson were
arrested After securing the prisoners
the mob set fire TO McGeisy's house and
his earthly possessions reduced to aches.
The prisoners were carried across The
lire into Oklahoma territory, and near the
scene Of the crime they were executed
by Judge Lynch's order, in the most hoT-
rible manner that human minds could de-
wise They were burned at the stake.
They met their doom with the usual stoi-
cism of their race. After life was extinct
the mob allowed the fires to burn down
and they hurriedly dispersed to their sew
eral homes No report was made that the
Indians had been burned to death, and
their charred bodies, burned beyond rec
ognition. were found lying in the ashes
Of the funeral pyre.
Everybody in the county seems TO know
that the Indians were executed on account
of the murder of Mrs. Simmons, but every
one seems to be entirely ignorant as TO
the individuals who composed the mob.
The affair has caused great excitement,
and The general impression prevails that
much bloodshed viii ensue as the result
