PROVINCE OF PINAR DEL RIO.

the situation in Pinar del Rio is ex-
tremely grave. Hundreds of persons
are flocking daily to the standard Of
General Guerra, whose force Is es-
timated to have grown from 500 two
days ago till 1t numbers at least 1000.
He has overrun almost the whole of
the western portion of the island pre-
paratory to an attack upon the city
of Pinar del Rio, which Ii likely to
fall at any moment.
Marches to Battle.
Messages received here regarding
the movements of the opposing forces
said that Colonel Estrampes was
marching out from the City of Pinar
del Rio to engage Guerra, who, 1t was
declared, was planning to meet him
with only one division of his troops.
The rebel leader had sent part Of
his followers, 1t was reported, to cap
ture the town of Guines, into which,
the latest news says, the government
troops have now been driven.
Force Under Guerra.
There is grave doubt II the force
Of government troops now at San
Juan de Martinez would be able to
withstand an attack by the forces Of
Guerra
Guerra's force is larger than has
been supposed. He has probably 81
900 men well equipped with arms and
ammunition, and is well supplied with
money. Guerra's movement westward
ia not retreat nor Is It with the
purpose of occupying Guanes. That
town is In fact already practically
occupied by resident insurgents. Guer-'
ra's purpose Is to effect junction
with several hundred insurgents who
are coming eastward from the vicin-
ity of Guanes.
Whether Guerra's movement toward
Guines was feint is not yet known.
That town and the villages of San
Juan and San Luis, which the rebels
had already captured, lie within a
radius of twenty miles of each other.
Reenforcements Arrive.
The only other news that reached
the government from the seat of op-
erations concerning the troops was to
the effect that the two poorly equipped
artillery companies which left here
twehty-four hours after Estrampes
and his main force reached him be-
fore he set out from Pinar del Rio
and that he had received four field
guns which were sent forward at the
same time. Concerning the rebels, 1t

The rebels are menacing the impor'

500 insurrectionists, is moving rapidly
across Santa Clara, sweeping every.
thing before him. To oppose him are
$50 Rurales. They have already been
driven back in a skirmish in which
few were wounded.
The whole province of Santa Clara
is in a state of unrest. The dissatis-

the garrisons there on account OF the

Havnna.-Heavy fighting occurred
In the province of Pinar del Rio be-
tween the forces commanded by the
rebel general, Pine Guerra, and the
government troops commanded by
Colonel Estrampes.
The government claims that Guerra
was defeated, but the revolutionists
declare that Estrampes is In full re-
treat, after having been whipped In
three hours battle. They add that
he fell back at first upon the town
Of Guines, which he was forced to
abandon later. His force Is estimated
at 1900 men, while 1t is believed that
Guerra had nearly 5000 men at the
time Of the fight.
Rebels Well Armed.
The rebels were well armed, and
were seemingly well supplied with
ammunition. The government force
was made up of a mixture of rurales
and volunteers, who had been hur-
riedly scraped together and rushed to
the front, with little or no discipline,
and but poorly equipped. This leads
to the belief that the government is

facts are known 1t will probably ap-
