Mutiny Among Spanish Soldiers In
Puerto Principe.

Mutiny Among Spanish Soldiers In
Puerto Principe.
Washington, Nov. 10. = Adiutant-
General Corbin received dispatch to-
day announcing that the Eighth cavalry
sailed this morning from Savannah for
Puerto Principe. Cuba. The regiment
will be the American garrison at Puer-
to Principe and Nuevitas.
In this connection an interesting BIT
of information has reached the war de-
partment Arrangements have been
made by the Spanish authorities to
send back to Spain the Spanish troops,
numbering 0, 500 men, upon the arrival
of the American garrison. It was ex-
pected they would sail Wednesday on
Thursday, but an unexpected obstacle
has arisen among the men themselves.
They are on the verge OF mutiny, OPEN
ly declaring they will not return to
Spain until they have received their
pay, now far in arrears, for service in
Cuba. The mutiny extends not only to
the enlisted men but to their officers,
and is directed against the executive
offlcials OF the governments on the
island. Some Of the men have not
been paid for nearly year. and to all
of them several months Of pay is due.
The situation has created no particu-
lar concern in the minds of the Amer
lean authorities. as it is not likely
seriously to affect the control OF that
portion OF the island by the American
forces; but it is realized that these
$500 soldiers. If they should persist in
their refusal to return to Spain. might
become dependents whom 1t would be
difficult to care for, and ultimately.
perhaps, menace to good government
in the island. The Spanish authorities
express no fear Of their ability to solve
the problem presented. but how they
will solve it If the men, backed by
their officers, absolutely refuse to return
home without their pay is not clear.

Destroyed by Fire.
Baker City, Nov. 15.--At ii o'clock
last night fire was discovered In the
Elkhorn hotel. at Canyon City, and
within two hours the entire business
portion OF the town and number Of
residences were reduced TO ashes. The
fire department was unable successfully
to combat the flames, owing to lack
of water. The buildings were mostly
frame, and the fire made rapid prog
ress. The conhagration was due to
the explosion OF lamp.
Friday night recalls to memory the
great confagration that destroyed the
town on August IL, 1870. Canyon
City was at that time the liveliest
town in Eastern Oregon, made SO By
the mining excitement that prevailed
as a result Of the gold discovered in
Canyon creek. The population Of the
town was much greater then than il
has since been, and the number Of bus
mess houses was larger. The fire Of
1870, like the recent confagration,
swept through the town and left 1t q
mass OF ashes.
