Havana, April 1.-The Neuvo Pais says: Taking S31 500, ,00O as the au- nual assessed income of urban and ru- ral properties of the island, according to the assessment of 1884, and capital izing it at 10 per cent, $3ls,O00,ooo would be obtained as the total value of the properties of the island. Sub- tracting S2Is s,00O,G0o, the amount of the existing mortgages on said prop critics, about $70.000,000, the value of the unincumbered property, would re- main. This, however, does not take into account the properties destroyed during the war, which far exceed that amount.

snid to Have Gained One of the

Londcn, April 11.-In connection with the resumption of hostilities in Natal an interesting rumor is current that Gen. Fuller has obtained com- mand of one of the Drakkenberg passes, whereby he hopes to take the Beers in the rear. In the event of his ceing successful, Gen. Butler has enough troops to leave 20,0C0 men to hold Natal, while he advances by way ot Harrismith, whence he would be able to threaten the Boer positions at Bethlehem and Kroonstad.
 Ridtcule the Statement.
 The officials of the foreign office here ridicule the statement made in a dispatch from St. Petersburg, pub- lished in the Aftenbladet. of Stock- holm, saying the czar Is ''extrcnely agitated over the Anglo-Portuguese arrangement in regard to landing British troops and supplies at Beira, and that he intends 10 issue procla- nation protesting against it in the course of his forthcoming visit to Mos cow and say there is no basis for the statement that the foreign office has received letters on the subject.
 How British Look At It.
 The British foreign office officials consider that it is entirely outside of the province of Russia to interfere with the Anglo-Portuguese arrange nlents. The Boer war is evidently re- garded at the foreign office here as teing in the nature of rebellion, nnd quite outside the category of what was provided for by The Hague con ference, so intervention of any kind under The Hague convention is re- garded as impossible.
