FIRE At MILAN, ITALY
IN FINE ART EXHIBIT
of Hungary and Italy Were Destroy
ed Amounting to $500, ooo-Electric-
ity Started Fire.
PUBLISHERS pressJ

Milan, Italy, Aug. 3.-Fire which
broke out in the International EXPOSE
ton did extensive damage. The sec
tons devoted to the decorative arts
OF Italy and Hungary were totally de
stroyed. as also was the pavilion in
which were installed the exhibits OF
Italian and Hungarian architecture.
The damage is estimated at $500, 600.
Four tiremen and five carbineers
were injured.
The fire "a discovered in the Hun
garian section and spread rapidly to
the art sections in an adjoining park.
For q time the British, Swiss, Japan
csc and Netherlands sections were
threatened, but by energetic work the
firemen succeeded in saving them.
The jewelry and fine arts sections
were also threatened, but a large
force of carbineers carried the pic
lures, many Of them of almost price
less value, from the gallery Of fine
arts into the corridors of the upper
sections beyond the fire zone.
The city was thrown into a state Of
great excitement and vast crowds of
people collected. The tiremen sue
ceeded in saving all except the ltal-
ian n Hungarian sections, though
dangerous sparks fell on the German,
Persian, Turkish and Chinese sec
tons. Some Of the estimates place
the loss as high as s2,400, 900, which
probably is excessive.
The origin of the fire is attributed
to an electric short circuit. The au-
thorities reject the theory hat the
contlagration was OF incendiary origin.

TROUBLE in CUBA
INsURREcTIoNIsTs CAPTURE AN
IMPORTANT TOWN.
AUTHORITIES NOT SCARED

Town of San Luis Captured by Ma
chete Charge.-other Provinces
Threatened.-Statement of Gen.
eral Rodriguez.
Havana.-Pino Guerrero, the leader
OF the insurgents in Pinar del Rio,
captured san Luis, an important town
short distance west of the city of
Pinar del Rio, Wednesday, after
desperate fight with the rurales who
garrisoned the place. 1t is reported
that the casualties were heavy for the
number of men engaged, being fifteen
killed and twice that number wounded.
Guerrero had nearly 500 men engaged
in the attack, while the government
forces numbered less than 100. Re-
ports say the town was captured by
desperate machete charge. The ru-
rales were made prisoners.
AT the palace there was disposi-
ton to minimize the Importance of
the insurgents success at San Luis,
the statement being made that while
the insurgents were in possession of
the town, the rural guards in their
quarters were still holding out.
The agent of the Western railway
at San Luis station, which is a mile
from the town, reports that the town
has been taken by insurgents, who
have surrounded the station. The
agent believes the number of killed
and injured was small. The fighting
was quickly over.
The garrison of San Luis is known
to number less than fifty. The popu-
lation of the town is 5000,
The rebel forces are reported to
have scored a victory shortly before
daylight Wednesday morning when a
force under Pine Durra attacked the
rurales' outposts at Pinar del Rio and
drove them back toward the city. The
insurgents did not follow up their ad-
vantage, as they are reported to be
awaiting reinforcements, but a con.
centrated attack on the small force
of loyal troops at Pinar del Rio is ex-
pected at any hour. Aid is being
rushed the government forces from

gressman, is with them.
General Rodriguez. commander OF
the rural guard, after relating the in
cidents of the day, said to the Asso-
ciated Press:
You can tell American people that
Cuba is entirely competent to cope
with the insurrection. The flood of
rumors in all directions about the or.
ganization of insurrectionary bands
in great numbers are not borne out by
our reports, or, so far as can be
learned. by the facts. The result of
the encounter at San Luis is still not
known definitely but it is known that
we inflicted some losses on the enemy
in that vicinity. The much talked Of
movement in Santa Clara province
has not been encountered, and no in
surrectionists have been seen there
by our forces"
