London, Sept. 2O-The Times. this

points out that though, as in the mother
country. there appears no disposition
among the Spaniards In Cuba to attempt

and it's consequences @with dreary,
fatalisstc calm, the'island Is fast drifting
into a condition of anarchy.
Insurgent bands; the correspondent
says are enjoying immunity in the COM
mission of outrages and plundering, and
this is especially true In the western pro-
vinces. where the insurgents bitterly
complain that they have been ignored
and abandoned by the United States and
being left utterly destitute, can only save
themselves from starvation by rapine.
Without foOu medicine and clOthdng,

The minister is greatly incensed at
Gen. Torals sending him a dispatch
on the latter's arrival at Vigo (Spain),
from Santiago de Cuba. and said Tora
ought to be cCurt-martfalled FOR his
conduct as governor of Santiago.
There is considerable Indignation
here at the fact that there were 1913
deaths during the voyage among the
1000 Spanish soldiers who have just
arrived in Spain on board the Spanish
transport San Ignacio de Loyola from
