TROUBLE IN HAVANA.
Disbanded Officers Demand Arrear
of Pay From Ei=nco.

Disbanded Officers Demand Arrears
of Pay From Bi=nco.
Havana, via KY West, Nov. IL
Since early on the morning Of Sunday
last the streets of Havana have again
presented the appearance of state of
SIEGE At every corner four regulars
are stationed armed with Mauser rifles,
besides the usual city patrol. AS it is
known the orden pubico have been
threatening trouble over the refusal OF
the government to pay the wages due
them, it was at first supposed that these
military precautions were taken owing
to the fear of an outbreak in that quar-
ter. Later however it was learned
that Colonel Masso Parro. late COM
mander of the dsbanded Cuba Espano-
la brigade with his officers, had threat
ened to come to the city, proceed to the
palace and demand the settlement Of
his and his officers pay.
Fearing that the arrival OF Colonel
Parro would be the signal for other
indictments to join the movement and
thus cause serious trouble, Captain Gen
eral Blanco forbade Colonel Parro from
coming to Havana. Anticipating in
subordination, however, General Blan-
co promptly took precautions to quell
any attempted uprising.
About month ago the brigade refus-
ed to disband till it was paid, and in
trenched on the Tubulcan estate, near
the city. General Aguirre, the Spanish
military governor of Cienfuegos, visited
the camp under flag of truce and held
a conference with Colonel Parro. The
result of this meeting was that por-
ton of the overdue money was paid to
the soldiers, and the brigade in turn
disbanded.
When the partial payment was made
to the brigade, the money was divided
among the rank and file, Colonel Parro
and his officers accepting promise Of
the future payment Of their salaries,
the total amount being over 100000,
which sum they now claim.
It is alleged that the corruption In the
department of finance of the insular
government has reached such a pitch
that employees and officials are openly
taxed TO- so and even 40 per cent dis
count on their salaries, which they are
forced to accept or go unpaid. The
same corrupt system 1t is further as
serted, pervades every branch of the
administration.

CHIEF CAUSE.

Unhealthy urine from unhealthy kidneys
the chief canse CT bladder troubles. So tho
womb, like the bladder, was created for one
purpose, and il not doctored too much Is not
liable to weakness or disease, except in rare
eases. 1t is situated back of and very close to
the bladder, therefore any pain, disease or in
convenience manifested in the kidneys, back,
bladder or urinary passage is often, by mis-
take, attributed to female weakness or womb
trouble of some sort. The error is easily
made and may be as easily avoided To find
cut correctly, set your urine aside for twenty
four hours; sediment or settling indicates
kidney or bladder trouble. The mild and the
extraordinary effect of DR.. Kilner's Swamp
Root, the great kidney, and bladder remedy
is soon realized. If you need medicine you

Trouble In a Consulate.

City of Mexico, Nov. 1.-THE condi-
ton OF affairs in the American con-
sulate here attracts much attention,
Vice Consul Bennett having been sus-
pended and forbidden entrance to the
consulate by Consul General Barlow,
who has not made known the grounds

Rahherx and Murder.

Chicago, Nov. 11.-Murder and rob-

or the death Of a man whose body was
found in an alley between State street
and Plymouth place, near Taylor street.
An examination showed that all the
pockets had been turned inside out and
their contents, whatever they may have
been, removed. Closer inspection re-
vealed finger marks on the throat ana
left little doubt that the man had been
choked to death. A key ring marked

" discussing the prospects of war tho
imminence Of which was nointed ont
Aoro salisbury at the lord mayors
Danquet IN Guildhall and by the Duke
y. Devohsnire at Eastbourne. Possibly
the iatter's words have caused a great
er sensation than those of the premier
himself. The Duke OF Devonshire in re-
spending TO toast to her maiesty's
ministers said:
mere Is no reason to deSist from the
work OF strengthening our naval forces
ana general defenses, since Fashoda is
only an incident in a much larger uues-
tion."
Al the banquet the Marquis of Sails
Dury did not announce British protec-
torate over Egypt. as was expected but
ne emphasized the necessity of being
prepared for all eventualities. The
premier also said that the United States
was new disturbing factor in Euro
pean politics, but. he added, not to the
detriment Of Great Britain.
The st. James Gazette, commenting
upon the Marquis of Salisbury's allu-
sion to the United States in his speech
at the Guildhall banquet says:
American imperialism promptlyland-
ed the United States in a war with
Spain, and 1t may easily land her in
other complications in the far east. but
even II her policy Is not pacific it is for
the benefit Of humanity at large"
Continuing. the st. James Gazette
points out that it would be in the inter-
est of Great Britain under all circum-
stances to have the United States pos.
sess the Philippine islands, saying:
Suppose them (the United States), as
10 now. out of the question, to be un-
friendly to us, they would have re-
sponsibilities over the sea; or on the
other hand, being our best friend, we
should have their cooperation in re-
sisting a closing Of the markets and an
unfair division Of decaying countries"
