Americans I'm the CITY sympnthise
with Cubnns I'm Their Troubles
with spaniards.

Havana, Dec 15.--American observers
OF the violent scenes enacted here on
Sunday night sympathize with the Gu
ban population over the killing OF three
persons and the wounding of 10 Others
by Spanish soldiers. Nevertheless the
American military men are unable TO
do more than they have done in secur-
ing safe transportation for prominent
Cubans 10 Marianao and in preventing
all arrests excepting those of three
youngsters who, however. were after
wards released. The shooting was near
~ all done by Spanish officers armed
with pistols and by officers of duty.
Some of the shots were fired during
the conflict at aggressive Cubans, but
most of them were fired at retreating
Cubars. None OF the officers implicated
has been brought 10 account by their
superiors. II is asserted that the feel
ing in the Spanish army is one OF pleas
ure that the Cubans gave the Spaniards
the opportunity 10 kill few OF them.
The first arrivals Of American troops
and the dissolution OF Spanish sover-
eighty on all sides in Havana increase
the Spanish bitterness here. The only
safety OF the Cubans is in their remain
ing patient for a week or two longer
until the Seventh army corps shall have
arrived. The American officers con-
stantly urge the Cuban leaders to coun-
sci silence and self-suppression for
awhile. as firebrand Cubans cannot be
protected even by the moral influence
OF the American representatives. Span
ish sovereignty. tits pointed out. is the
only sovereignty here. and unless there
shall be an interregnum OF anarchy
Spanish authority must remain SUI
preme until. under the written agree
ments, the American troops shall be
here in force and the flag shall have
been changed. Julio Sanguily feels
that Gen. Greene saved his life by OBJ
jecting 10 his proposed arrest by the
Spaniards. who aver that he has vio-
lated faith in coming here while Span
ish rule remained.

TRAIN KILLS EIGHT.
Terrible Disaster Occurs ON the New
York Central ItniIrond Near
Corfu, N. \.

Buffalo n. Y. Dec. flight men
were killed aud four injured at
Winspeare bridge. near Corfu, on tho
New York Central railroad, Tuesday.
They were Poles. with the exception Of
John Warner. their foreman who -
among the killed. The men were en-
gagged In shoyeling snow. All were
frightfully mutilated. The men
stepped from one track to avoid an APP
preaching train right in front OF a fast
express train running in the same d.
recton as the first, and were literally
ground TO pieces.
Warner and gang were working on
track No. near Winspeare bridge. y
freight train was laboring its way pom
derously up the steep incline. Its mo-
tion was so slow that the men contin-
ued their work until the train was al
most upon them. Then they jumped
out OF the way. Some jumped 10 the
right. others 10 the left. Those who
jumped 10 the north escaped. Most OF
those who jumped 10 the south were
struck by the express train coming
down track No. with fearful velocity.
There is a straight piece Of track here,
and the engineer had clear view down
the stretch. No snow was falling. As
soon as he realized the appalling stu
alton he brought the train up with
jerk that threw the passengers out Of
their seats. IL was too late. however,
10 avoid the calamity.
Twelve mangled bodies were picked
up. In but six OF which life was found.
The bodies were scattered over a large
area. Some had been thrown distance
Of GO feet. Others were thrown up
against the freight train and their
bodies horribly cut and dismembered.
Engineer Smith. OF the express. in IN
interview said:
~ could see nothing ahead OF me. hut 7
thought the place looked bad and blew my
whistle. l had let up on the whistle when
/ heard my fireman give yell He did
not call for brakes. but slapped on the
mir the minute heard him. He had seen
man beside the track. though he had not
seen anyone struck. A moment after
applied the brakes I saw a man shoot up
into the afr on my side OF the cab. He was
as high as the smokestack when saw him.
He came down on the freight train which
was running along on that side and was
carried a mile before he fell or My train
stopped IN about two train lengths and the
sight | saw when ! got out was the most
horrible / have ever witnessed. The dead
and manged were lying on both sides OF
the track just az they had been thrown.
DID not see them until after we had struck
them. / did not see them come on tho
track and until my fireman yelled l did not
know they were there"
