Havana. Nov. 3.-For the purpose of ending the
feeling of insecurity throughout the island. due
to struggling bands OF former insurgents Gov
ernor Magoon has ordered the employment of
strong bodies Of rural guards to pursue and
scatter the bands and restore order. American
troops will replace the rural guards in the towns

Governor Magoon said that he was deter
mined to prevent horse stealing. and that he
would have persons guilty of this offence ar
rested and punished according TO law. Persons
appearing in public armed would be taken into
custody The provisional government believes
that all good men engaged in the recent upris-
ing have loyalty complied with the agreement
TO disband. and all persons of whatever political
afhliation, henceforth assembling in bands will
be considered actuated by illegal motives and
dealt with accordingly.
The marine commandant at Pinar del Rio re-
ports small squads of armed men hear that city.
