REBELS NOT sUBDUED.

Madrid, July 30.-Despite the fact that the government troops have sue ceeded in capturing the main body of the Moorish army, dispatches from the revolutionary forces are reassuring. The slaughter of the main division of the rioters in Calle De San Martin into which the troops drove the mob and then poured a murderous fire in to it's ranks, has inf1amed the remain ing bands and it is certain that peace will only come after heavy fighting.
 It is apparent that every revolution ary redoubt in the city will have to be taken at the point of the bayonet. De- tails of the fighting in Calle De San Martin show it to have been one of the bloodiest butcheries in the history of the Spanish uprisings.
 The government is doing it's utmost to prevent the story of the slaughter from becoming public. After the mob had been forced into the square at San Martins a murderous fire was poured into it and it seemed as though the square would be choked with dead.
 For a while the mob fought back but. it was soon evident that con tinuance of the struggle would mean
