Havana correspondent says thai

a Havana correspondent says that
Spanish volunteers and the rabble in
that city are only waiting an open rup-
pure between the United States and
Spain to attack the Americans who are
there. Should such thing occur there
Is no telling what the result would be in
the way of retaliation against Spaniards
in this country. 1t Is nut probable that
the Spanish authorities in Havana
would permit such an occurrence, which
would be In violation OF the rules OF war.
The correspondent is probably quoting
a member of the .rabble. It's not best,
however, for Americans now in Havana
to run reckless risk.
