Washington, Nov. 13.-In connection with the departure of the Eighth cav airy for Cuba an interesting bit of in- formation has reached the war depart- Went. Arrangements have been made by the Spanish authorities to send back to Spain the Spanish troops num- being 7,500 men upon the arrival of the American garrison. It was expected that they would sail next Thursday but an unexpected obstacle has arisen. The men are on the verge of mutiny, openly declaring they will not return to Spain until they have received pay now far in arrears for service in Cuba The mutiny extends not alons to the enlisted men, but to their officers, and is directed against the executive officials of the Madrid government of the is-s land. Some have not been paid for nearly year and to all of them several months pay is due. The Spanish au- thorities express no fear of their abili- ty to solve the problem presented but how they will solve it, if the men, backed by their officers, absolutely re- fuse to return home without their pay, is not clear.
