CUBAN REBELS SACK
AND BURN VILLAGE

Havana.-General Estenoz, the real
leader of the negro insurgents, has
captured and burned the town of La
maya on the branch line of the Cuban
4ailroad, 80 miles from Santiago
A column of regulars commanded
by Major Sanguilly had occupied La
maya for two days but sailed forth
in search of insurgents. Hardly had
the regulars left when Estenoz with
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.
Reports from the scene of hostilities
say the rebel leaders continue to ex-
act contributions of arms and money
from property-owners, who are mostly
foreigners, under threat of applying
the torch.
