LATEST FROM HAVANA.

Havana. May 1.-During the last feW
days some Of the local papers that arr
printed in English have published sen
sational stories regarding the disputes
between the soldiers and the Cubar
police, evidently with the intention OF
preventing an understanding betwee!
them and if possible Of stirring III

have been instances where both the
Americans and Cubans have been
