Sacked the City and Surprising Cuban Expedition
Passengers arriving from Cuba report a Thursday landing near Honda by an expedition of about 150 armed men likely led by Colonel Sazo or Carril to Martine. Insurgents attacked Santa Clara and Santa Clara Central Park, killed Spanish soldiers, seized arms and provisions, and burned bridges. Many plantations and railroads were damaged, and tobacco stores in Remedios and Santa Clara were blocked from removal. The move disrupted Havana, with 15,090 bales of tobacco at risk and authorities financing warship acquisitions by taxing merchants.

Armenians Riots Turmoil and Diplomatic Push in Constantinople
A late 19th century report describes Lord Phillip Omeric pressing Kilim Pasha to grant amnesty to Armenians arrested after Constantinople riots. A collective note from foreign powers will be delivered to the Porte, with naval guards ordered to the harbor for winter. Armenian meetings in Rostov and surrounding areas urge revolutionary action to avert extermination, amid police arrest limits and local disasters including a mill fire and a mine accident. The regatta at Cincinnati drew seventy thousand spectators but wind stopped the ten mile race, while the Thistle won a nearby event.
