HAVANA WAKING UP.
The Prospect Of Spanish Rule Ending
Has Given the Natives New Life

HAVANA VIA KEY WEST, Nov. o.
The last few days have seen a revival Of
activity in every quarter Things appear
10 take on moro definite forms In every
branch of military operations. Here at
Havana whaTVes are being built and rail-
way connections made. The military
camps chosen have begun TO be con-
structed Government boats and supplies
are arriving and the first installment of
United states troops is expected on Fri
day. At the custom house the archives
are being packed hurTiedly. preparatory
TO turning over the building 10 the Amer
lean authorities. The best energies Of
the Spanish now seem bent upon an inn
mediate evacuation of the island. All
this has had a salutary effect upon the
general tone of commercial and social life
in the city. which looks 70 the immediate
future for relief from a long season OF
doubt and stagnaton. With the advent
of cooler weather the health of the gene
raj public has improved. No new cases
of yellow fever among foreigners have
been recorded and the situation can be
said TO be visbly better. There are,
however two discordant notes. the in
crease Of crime, and the continuance Of
official corruption The newly cOnstitu-
ted police force. known as Riiiers Gu0er-
natives, armed with machcts and rifles. is
totally inadequate to cope with the crimi-
nal classes whose ranks are daily swollen
by the return of deported prisoners from
the penal colonies. The Riflers make
very poor substitute for the disbanded
Orden Pubiico. The alarming increase
in vice and crime renders 1t unsafe 20
walk the streets unarmed or unprotected
after nightfail. The police reports show
scores Of "hod-ups' murders. burslaries
and highway robberies. which never get
into the papers, thanks TO the watchful
censor.
Corruption, bribery and wholesale steal
ing in the military and civil administra-
lions continue unchecked.

once. perhaps, in his checkered career,
but he is not now. although he has con
siderable amount of property that Is
valuable but not profitable. He has been
financially embarrassed FOR several years
and attributes his trouble to the depre-
citation of silver. which is probably true.
Hence the zeal and fury with which he
attacks the gold bugs. He has lot OF

property until recently was the Silver

the interest of free coinage. which has
had very large circulation at 50 cents
