govern ment a manifesto wtih over 300 signatures a great many of which are those of Spaniards openly pro claiming Cuban independence Owing to the fact that Spanish cers are selling commissary stores ait any price obtainable army supplies are now a drug in the market in the interior making legitimate trade im possible It is asserted that as the Spanish rule in Cuba draws toward a close corruption plunder and robbery become daily more open and whole sale The of transporta tion charged with furnishing passage tickets to Spanish officers returning to Spain charges an arbitrary rate of each for a berth If the victim refuses to give up he is made to wait for the commission claiming that there is no room Gen the glad to pay the tax in order to get away This abuse is openly spoken of but the present sit is a free for all grab as grab can game and every one is eager to make money while the Spanish sun still shines The official report of the burials in Havana since the first of the present year shows that there have been 821 interments The average death rate keeps on steadily at 47 per day Great discontent prevails among the Spanish troops because of non payment in some cases for six

all the soldiers has ill feeling In the province of Puerto Principe of the 400 members of the civil guards 300 deserted and gone over to the insurgents About 50 Cuban patriotic clubs have been organized in Havana under the management m a large majority of cases of physicians lawyers and oth er professional men Many members of some of these clubs attended the first meetings wearing Cuban and American flags crossed The presid ing officers of several of the clubs noticing the insignia in the button holes of the coats of the members or dered that in future only the Cuban flag should be worn In many in stances this order was complied with The Cuban general has arriv ed at Havana from Puerto Principe and is preaching in the Havana cafes and the insurgent camps near the city a holy war against the Americans He has interviewed many Cuban lead ers and has urged the carrying war against Americans if ence is not at once granted to Cuba The Cuban colonel Torriente has also arrived at Havana from the east and is carrying on a strong campaign against the Americans and Calixto Garcia whom he professes to look upon as a traitor to the Cubans and as bribed by American gold A secret circular has been sent to the presidents of all the Cuban pat committees denouncing a large number of Cubans who are looked upon as traitors to the cause of Cuban independence and are charged with being attached to the Americans The circular recommends a vigorous con test against not only Spanish resi but against Americans as well who to steal the Cubans The Cervera mili tary Marianao pays daily visits to the camps in his district advising the Cubans not to surrender their arms and to make re until the independence of the island is declared Col Cervera is an intimate friend of Gen Parrado pres ident of the Spanish evacuation com mission During the last two weeks several hundred Remington carbines and large quantities of ammunition have been sent from Havana it is presumed by some of the Spanish chiefs The Spanish residents manufacturers merchants and planters are somewhat alarmed and criticize in very severe terms the behavior of some of the Spanish chiefs who it is alleged are acting suspiciously in many places and are working in Cuban in dependence advising the Cubans to persist in their revolutionary attitude For this reason many Spanish resi dents here have written long letters to friends in Madrid in order that the home government may be made ac quainted with what is happening on the island and have requested that on behalf of Spains interests and those of the Spanish residents on the island the evacuation may be completed as soon as possible so as to avoid pro longing the existing dangerous con dition of affairs Camp Meade Middletown Oct riot

able horrors of war and the conse quent of victorious peace and there were services of song and worship on these themes This was the spiritual inauguration The mater ial spectacular beginning will not be until Tuesday and the intervening day will be devoted to housing the citys guests and perfecting the final details Conceived purely aa a local tribute to the might of our on sea and land and the valor of the men who bore them the celebration baa grad broadened into a national fete of greater magnitude than any public function in many years past In it will participate the president and vice president of the United States with the cabinet Gen Miles Gen Wheeler and other military notables Commo dore Philip Hobson and other heroes of the Merrimac and scores of naval warriors of lesser fame and the gov of states with their staffs In time it will occupy three full days counting the actual opening as on Tuesday In scope it will embrace an imposing greeting to the nations navy as represented by the ships which fought and won as the ships of no other navy afloat ever fought and won a display of our civic virtues as exemplified by a procession showing the progress in commerce and art and a great military parade of the men whose endurance and prowess made possible this festival The decorations throughput the city are lavish and beautiful Broad street from end to end of the route wears a wooden aspect Her stately residences are hidden behind huge stacks of lumber the pathway left open under the lines of stands seem ing to the pedestrian like a long ar cade Scarcely a single sidewalk in the whole distance is left uncovered Today these great wood piles many of which reach almost to the house tops will be in bunting The piece de resistance of decora tion is the court of honor from a stand in the center of which President McKinley will look at the parades It consists of a succession of massive white pillars 12 ort each side of Broad street Each of the columns is sur mounted by a great eagle and globe of shimmering gold while the four at the ends bear the legends San El Manila and In the center of this court the street is spanned by the magnifi cent triumphal arch This is but impressive the prevailing tomei being white gold It is ly festooned with flags by day anil illuminated by incandescent lights at night The arch is surrounded by an enormous figure of Victory mounted on chargers Interlaced between the columns will be flags by day and red blue electric lights by night arranged in picturesque intervals to symbolize the stars stripes From the top of the arch will fly the flag which tered from the topmast of one Deweys fleet but here it ona flagstaff raised by Shatter at The auxiliary displays in front Union league and the Lippincott sion which flank the court of on either side will make the whole scheme of decoration one of splendor and brilliancy The trees in the immediate neighborhood of the honor will blossom with the national light The city hall the largest municipal in America will wear on all columns and over its archways but here too the chief effect be one of illumination From the William Penn statue which surmounts the great tower will stretch slanting lines of incandescent lights in row after of others completely encircle which covers four acres of ground At night the searchlights ofr the ships in the river will rest upon the statue while the ships will be elaborately illuminated The visitors have taxed railroads and hotels to the limited vt their efforts and the down town streets are literally jammed It is estimated that fully visitors from this and other states are here and the inward rush will continue Winters Relit Began Vancouver B Oct steamer has arrived from southeastern Alaska ports with 170
