MILITARY IN CONTROL.
Outbreaks of Riotous Negroes I'm Geor-
gin Is Likely Soon to he
at an End.

Darien, Ga, Aug. 2s.-The roundup
of riotous negroes in Mcintosh county
by the military resulted in the surren-
der of Henry Delegal, the murderer of
Deputy Sheriff Townsend, and the To-
cation for future arrest of Delegal's
brother and the woman directly impli-
Gated in the killing.
The arrest of Delegal and the arrival
of reenforcements for the military have
broken the backbone of the defiance of
the law by the negroes. A whole regi-
ment of troops are now on duty in and
about Darien, under command of Col.
Lawton, but it is not believed there
will be further bloodshed.
There are still several ringleaders of
the blacks wanted by the officers of the
law. Unless they come in and surren-
der or are brought in by their friends
and turned over to the authorities the
troops will go after them to-day.

in the convent. Large numbers of the

many are known to have perished in the

no possible chance to escape.
The scenes at the conflagration were

WILL ABANDON CUBA.
1t Is Said the President VIII Begin
to Withdraw Troops After
the Census Is Taken.

Washington, Aug. 2s.-President Nc
Kinley, it is said, has signed a proclama-
ton which is to be promulgated in Cuba
in a day or two. The proclamation is to
the effect that the census ordered for
Cuba is to be the beginning of the
movement looking toward the estab-
lishment of an independent government
for that island.
When the census, the proclamation
says, has been completed, arrange
mentswill be made by the United States
government for the holding of local
elections in the various provinces
throughout the island, with the view of
establishing civil governments, thus
giving an opportunity to the Cubans to
demonstrate their ability to conduct,
in their own way, the affairs of the is
land.
AS fast as the local authorities per-
feet their scheme of government the
United States troops will be with
drawn. The proclamation, it is said.
will be printed in all the papers in Cuba.
Its reported object is 20 contradict the
stories circulated in the island that the
United States government does not in
tend to carry out the will of congress
and give independence to the Cubans.
