barn on his farm, in Lafayette county.
A company of soldiers occupied the

Corder went to look for the money. it
was gone. The money was found by
person residing near Corder's house
and he gave part OF the money to an
other. Twenty-eight years ago the
man who found the money died. The
conscience of the other man disturbed
him to suah an extent that he recently

the rules of the church he was required

DISGUSTED WITH PANDO.
Gen. seGura Refuses to Serve Lon
ger Under Him

HAVANA, (via Key WesD, Jan. s.
Today Gen. Blanco, Gen. Parade and
Gen. Pando called upon Gen. SECURE,
at the Hotel Florida to try to induce
MIN to remain in the island. He re-
FUSED. He does not wish to be respon-
slble, he declares, for the future de-
Feiopment OF the "disgraceful Spanish
RUE IN cuba. Gen. Segura Is wholly
d1sSusted with Gen. Pando's method
OF campaign. He says Pando spends
more gunpowder in greeting autonomy
than in fighting insurgents, and adds
that in his opinion Cuba is lost to Spain
unless the government sends Gen.
Poiavieja or returns Gen Weyler. The
latter he considers out of the question
because Gen. Weyler was relieved of
ms command at the request Of Wash
mgton. Gen. Polavieja he holds in
nigh esteem, believing that this officer
could end the war If an determination
policy were adopted. Gen. Segura also
believes war inevitable between Snain
and the United States and that the
preteXt for 1t will be the fiIibusterin,-
expeditions.
The insurgents are carrying out the
orders of Gen. Maxine Gomez not to
allow grinding and they set fire to the
cane fields wherever possible, from one
end Of the island to the other.
Gen. Pando will sail tomorrow morn
Ing by the steamer Panama, going
Eastward. He will probably go first to
Nuevitas, province of Puerto Principe,
and from there by steamer to Gibard.
thence proceeding to Santiago de
Cuba.
The local Conservative press COM
ments editorially upon the circum-
stances Of swearing in the new colonial
ministers. The company that assem-
bled to witness the function was small
ard very cod and there were no crowds
in front of the capitol as usual. The
new cabinet hesitates to remove the
existing off1ceholders, who are ac-
quainted with the work Of the depart
ments and to substitute inexpert new
officials. More than this, among the
old employees are many Cubans.
