The first the bathers knew of the

.C0LON|STS MUST BEAR
THE FORTUNES OF WAR

WASHINGTON, July 1S.-Extreme
agitation exists among the American
and other foreign citizens along the
line of the Mexican Northwestern rail
road as a result of the retreat of the
insurgent army in that direction.
No serious trouble is expected, how
ever. as long as the United States ad
heres to its present policy of strict
neutrality and the Mexican armies con
fine themselves to communicating
necessary supplies and transportation
1t is pointed out here that the people
in that section of Mexico are now un
dergoing the same annoyance and dis
treSs that was suffered for many weeks
by the foreign element in the state OF
chihuahua along the line of the MeXi-
can Central railroad. 1t is part of the
fortunes of war and so long as Ameri-
can citizens do not suffer actual vio-
lence they must rest content with a
knowledge that they will be amply re-
paid for any pecuniary loss inflicted on
them as result of the rebellion.
Copies of proclamation by some OF
General OrozcO's men, charging that
the rebel leader has 100000 in Ell
Paso banks and is preparing to go into
the United States to enjoy it have been
received by the state department
Somewhere in Mexico Patrick
Dunno, an American citizen, is in pris-
on under sentence of death. This
much and no more the state depart
ment learned through Representative
kinkaid of Nebraska Consular Off
GERS in various sections of Mexico have
been directed to make every effort 10
locate Dunno and save his life.

been made in Havana. All the prison
crs are held incommunicado.
Havanans were Reconstruction early
today when firing was heard at Casa
Blanca near Cabanas fortress, on the
north shore of Havana bay. Troops
were rushed to that point. The fact
that the defenses of the city had been
weakened by the withdrawal OF troops
for the eastern provinces added to fears
for outlying districts. The military
guard at the presidential palace was
tripled today.
News from the provinces, although
censored, tells of condition Of anarchy
In the eastern end of the island. In
Orfente province the negro rebels are
maltreatinE women and children.
The rebels under General Estonez
have begun destroying railroads and
cutting telegraph and telephone wires.
A repetition of the guerrilla warfare
maintained against SPAIN LOT many
years is expected.
Foreigners are panicstricken, and all
who can do so are seeking REFUGEE n
the cities. There are many rumors of
Americans and Englishmen being killed
in the outlying sections, but the censor
ship is so severe and the wires so badly
interrupted it was impossible to con-
firm these reports.
The labor situation increased the
governments troubles. stevedores in
Oriente province are on strike and re
fuse to yield. President Gomez was
defied when he ordered the firemen's
union to call off its strike in this city.

CAPTAIN Henry j. lIaGdock, Wireless

which was organized by Thomas r
Ryan. Henry Coolidge and Norman &.

The Cumberland corporation issued
$15,000,000 notes which mature June Is
next. and pledged Seaboard Air Line

curtty. 1t is now proposed to pay off
the notes at their maturity. and to get
funds for that purpose it was decided
to sell the Seaboard Air Line stock
held by the Cumberland corporation.
Now that the Cumberland corpora
ton proposes to sell the holdings of
Seaboard Air Line it is believed there
is no intention of tho latter securing
control or even a large interest in the

This road has sold five-year notes
