Caimanera Ready to Wipe the
Town From Existence. -

OFF GUANTANAMO, June Is, via
Kingston, Jamaica, June 2O.-Cuban
scouts report to-day that the ihhab-
itants of Caimanera have strewn the
streets with straw and oil with the in
tention of destroying the city and fee
ing to the hills.
Caimanera lies four miles up the bay
from Camp McCalla, under the guns of
the American ships, and the situation
is desperate. Starving and famine
stricken, convinced of the triumph of
the American arms, and without faith
in the protection of the Spanish sol
diery, the people are believed to have
determined to leave their houses in
ashes behind them and seek safety in
the mountains of the north.

SLOW TO MAKE A SLASH.
Hitch in RetrenchmcnJ Programme in
Nirpinia


Richmond, Feb. 1.-THE general as
sembly with less than three weeks Of its
session remaining, il coming down to
hard work in dead earnest. The senate
yesterday Coined the house in holding
afternoon sessions, with view to reliev-
ing the conSested calendar, especially Of
local bills, great mum Der of which were
rassed this afternoon by both branches.
AS usual, nearly all.-sthe important legis-
lation will be crowded INFO the last few
days Of the session. The failure of the
house to pass the bills reducing the fees
of jaiiors and cutting down the salaries
of the clerks of the two houses may have
n serious effect upon the work of re-
trenchment, and lead to something like
II deadlock. Neither of these measures
received the required fifty-one votes. Mo-
tions to reconsider were passed by. and
another effort will be made to get the
bills through. Many of those who were
dissatisfied with. the. small reduction
made in the salary OF Colonel Bigger, op-
pose the passage of that bill as il now
stands, and various combinations are at
WORK.
