leader of the negro insurgents, has
captured and burned the town of La
maya on the branch line of the Cuban

800 men attacked the handful of rur-
ales. Citizens armed themselves and
attempted to oppose the insurgents,
but were compelled to retreat, losing
several wounded. Estenoz then enter
ed the town, which he sacked and
burned.

foreigners, under threat Of applying
the torch.
