TAXES IN CUBA.
spanish System to Be Aboiish ed-Debt-
Ors Given More Time


HAVANA. March 2S.-Two important de-
crees will be promulgated in the course of
the next few days. One tears up the Spanish
taxation system Under its provisions all
municipal assessments are to be applied to
local administration. To understand the
bearings of this, it should be kept in mind
that the entire islano is divided into 1S4
"munic palities," the term municipality"
being used to include country districts as
well as towns and cities. The tax on city
realty is reduced 10 single rate of S per
cent. on incomes in Havana. Matanzas.
Sagua, Cardenas Cienfuegos, Santiago, and
in other cities TO per cent, and on rural
properties TO per cent Those ruined by
the war and those that are not productive
are exempted, while all sur-taxes are abol-
ished. Numerous rules under this decree are
made for the collection of Industrial IL
censes and interna! revenue. Liquor taxes
are increased from so to 100 per cent, ac-
cording 10 classification, and all taxes are
made payable in money of the United States
or It's equivalent.
The other decree, about TO be issued,
grants one year. from April /. 1899, to debt
ors whose Indebtedness existed on Jan. /.
1899. as a period of grace, during which
mortgages cannot be forecosed or property
sold for either principal or interest The de-
cree, which is long and intricate, leaves
debtors free TO make any other arrange
ments with their creditors which they may
desire. Properties ruined by the war and
those that are not productive are exempted,
while all sur-taXes are abolished. What is
known as repartimiento-the tax on beef
and cattle and the imposts on articles of
prime necessity. like food and fue-is abol-
ished. The municipalities are not allowed to
lay any export or import taxes. The question
of excise is left TO the municipalities; but
the taxes on city and rural real estate and
on commerce and industry are TO be turned
over to be applied locally.
The Indianapolis journal. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1867-1904, 1899-03-29

into the first aggressive demonstration. The
rebels attempted to charge across the plain
east of the railroad, but the Americans
charged to meet them and the Filiplnos
bolted after a few shots. leaving several
men Killed on the field. The Filipino pris-
oncrs further declare that the rebels have
lost all taste for fighting and that their off,
GERS have to keep them in line by beating
them with swords.
One of the most brilliant and costly
achievements OF the campaign was the
charge of Major Howards battalion across
the river. Advancing at the double quick
they found the river beneath them and
splashed across with a yell, swimming and
wading. with bullets scattering in the water.
and rushed upon the rebel trenches. Ten
men were killed and eleven were wounded
in the charge.
WORK OF BRAVE MEN.
At the capture of Marilao there were sew
eral incidents showing the bravery of our
troops Some Filipinos were entrenched on
an island in bend of the river. The Amer
leans approached in triangular formation.
with the Third Artillery in the apex and
the Kansas and Pennsylvania regiments
forming the sides. Colonel Funston called
for volunteers to swim the river. Two men
crossed under fire and secured materials
with which a crossing was eventually eff
fected. Major Bell, of General Macarthur S
staff, with Company 1. Of the Pennsylvania
Regiment, and Lieutenant Abernathy and
ten men engaged in similar exploits.
After the Filipinos had raised the white
flag many of them attempted to run and
several were shot for so doing.
Tn, II.
cans found thirty newly-made graves of
Fflipinos and a dozen bodies were seen
drifting down the river with grewsome
wounds. The prisoners are digging their
former comrades graves.
Many huts are smoking ruins, having
been burned by their inhabitants. The
Americans are not burning any buildings.
Our troops captured four Spaniards who
were fighting with the insurgents.
General Macarthur was under a heavy
fire yesterday.
WHAT PRISONERS SAY.
The prisoners say Aguinaldo has declared
that if the Americans can take the Filipino
capital he will surrender.
A detachment of ninety-six Filipino pris-
oners was escorted into Manila to-day.
Their appearance aroused great interest as
they were marched from the railroad depot
to the prison.
The rebels have unloaded about 500 men
from train half a mile in front of General
MacArthur's forces. with the object of re-
infOrcing the Filipino garrison at Guguinto
and Bulacan on either side of the railroad
leading To Maloos.
The fact that the railroad is in operation
from here to our front greatly facilitates
the transportation of supplies to the troops.
Before the break in the road was repaired
the transportation of supplies was very un-
certain.
The United States gunboat Yorktown has
arrived here with the Spanish steamer Mum
dara, owned by the MendeZona Company of
this place. The steamer was captured after
4 stiff chase in the Gulf of Lingayen, 24J
miles north. When she was first sighted the
Mundara was entering the gulf, but she
headed southwark. The Yorktown fired two
shots before the steamer was overhauled.
