Nkw Yonic, May 3. A special to tho
1 fesa from Key West says :
Havana advices show that the insur
gents are active in that province. Ta
paata was attacked last week by a force
of 400 insurgents, nnd hold for an en
tire day. The Spanish garrison in one
of tho blockhouses retreated completely,
while the other held their grouud and
did not firo at the Insurgents or disturb
them m any way. The Cubans took
posseaaion of tho vacated blockhouse,
looting it of nil Us arms aud provisions
they could find, and then sot it on fire.
Tko other blockhouse, with ti garrisou
of 300 troops in and around it, kept
quiet, no offensive operations being
attempted by the Spanish officor in com
mand. The Cubans camped within
"alf a mile of the Spanish force, and
Plundered the stores of the town with
out opposition.
La Hetba was attacked by a force from
Rodriguez's army, the first of the week,
and tho Spanish, garrison driven out.
there is a small earth fort there and
two blockhouses. They attacked the
earthworks early in tho morning, carry
ing them by u dashing charge, the Span
ish retreating into blockhousoa at the
other end of town. One of these was
attacked by the Cubans, and three
hombs exploded under its walls, shatter
K it badly and killing several inmates.
The Spanish surrendered, and were
Paroled by the Cubane. Some firing
took place between the insurgents and
tho other two blockhouses, bin no at
tack was made on them, the Cubans ap
parently being content with the victories
they had gained. They entered the
stores, took what they pleased, and
loaded their plunder in ox teams in
plain view of the Spanish. The Spanish
loss is said to have been about seventy
five killed and wounded.

Washington, May 3. Senator Al'i
son. chairman of the Republican com
mittee which is preparing the tariff bill
for the senate, had a conference today
with the Democratic members of the
finance committee and arranged a pro
gramme for getting the bill into the
senate. According to agreement, the
bill will be reported to the full commit
tee tomorrow, it the Republicans find
they desire to hold it no longer, and will
then be passed on to the senate as soon
as the Republicans make it manifest
that they have a majority favorable to
its being reported.
Allison renewed his efforts to secure
consent to having the bill reported after
tomorrow's meeting without conditions,
but the Democrats would only agree not
to insist upon holding the bill in com
mittee for detailed inspection after the
Republicans had shown'they had a clear
majority in committee favorable to the
bill. Allison accepted these terms.
This arrangement will throw the re
sponsibillty of deciding the length of
time the bill shall be held upon Senator
Jones, of Nevada, who' holds the balance
of power. The indications are he will
not lend himself to any prolonged con
sideration of the bill in committee. He
nracticallv said as much to his friends.
The Democrats expect tho bill will be
allowed to lay on the table ten days or
two weeks.

From the Ftilrliavun (X. Y.) Register.
Mr. James Rowland of this village,
state that for twenty-five years his wife
has.been a sufTeier from rheumatism.
A few nights ago she was in such pain
that she was nearly crazy. Sho sent
Mr. Rowland for the doctor, but he bad
read of Chamberlain's Tain Balm and
instead of eoing for the doctor he went
to the store and secured a bottle of it.
His wife did not approve of Mr. Row
land's purchase at first, but neverthe
less applied the Balm thoroughly and in
an hour's time was able to go to sleep.
She now applies it whenever she feels an
ache or a pain and finds that it always
gives relief. He says that no medicine
which she had used ever did herae much
good. The 25 and 50 cent sizes for sale

There is a queer notion
going that tea is cheaper if
you buy it loose by the
pound. People who think
that way forget that the best
part of the tea-flavor escapes
first.
