Madrid, July 29.-It was officially an- rounced tonight. that the cavalry engaged at Barcelona succeeded today in driving into St. Martin Square the principal bands of revolutionists, against whom the ar tillery opened fire, causing great losses. The survivors surrendered
 The official statement further says that fl now remains only to master small groups of revolutionists In the villages in the vicinity of Barcelona.
 Thus, according to official advices, the insurrection has been checked, but at a great sacrifice of life. After fighting desperately and successfully for a long time behind barrieades the principal mobs were gradually driven to St. Martain' $ Square, where they found themselves en- trapped Heavy attachments of artillery and cavalry came up and surrounded them.
 The artillery immediately opened fire, moving down the revolutionsts who sought to escape, but were met at every point with shol and shell. Those of the insurgents who were not killed or seri- ously wounded threw down their arms and surrendered.
 The insurrection continues in the neigh boring villages, whither the troops are proceeding. The commanders of the sol diers are under oreers to spare none who attempt to resist.

SPAIN RENT BY REVOLUTION

 To have yielded immediately to the President on the question of reducing the tariff on leather. which requires a special rule by reason of the fact that the reduc- ton is below that passed by either House or Senate, might have opened up the woolen and other schedules, hence by a pretense of opposition the President is made to keep hands off other sections of the bill and feel satisfied with the little which has been given him.
 The democratic members of the con ference committee were allowed copies of the bill today and experts are now going over them making comparisons with the DingIey act,
 One of the conferees said tonight that there Is every reason to believe that this examination will show that the tariff has been revised upward.
