A World dispatch from Havana says: I i On Tuesday the town of Bejucal,one of the most strongly fortified places in the province, was entered by 500 Cu bans, who drove the Spanish earrison of 600 men into tho forts and for half an hour exchanged shots at long dis tances. Finding that the Spanish gar rison would not venture out upon an attack, the insurgents looted the place at their leisure. Two hundred and fifty dwellings and seven stores were burned. Tbe insurgents carried off a quantity of reserved ammunition and provisions. The town of Quillian has been cap tured by one of the detachments com manded by either Castillo or Arando. The garrison of 300 Spanish troops re treated on the appearance of the insur gents. The Spanish blockhouse was burned and several stores and dwell ings were looted. Colonel Nunez, In Pinar del Bio province, attacked a fortified town be low Artemisa, and after a terrible fight drove the Spanish garrison out. The Spanish lost 48 men and the Cubans 24. The insurgents destroyed the Spanish fort and liberated 24 Dacificos who had been condemned to be shot the following day. Among them were six prominent Cuban ladies from Ar temisa and other sections, who had been missing from their homes for over two months. These ladies have been imprisoned with criminals of the low est class, negresBes and others, and when released their clothing was al most in rags and they were in a terri bly wretched physical condition.

Weyler has forwarded to Spain, for ap proval of the courts,, tbe public budget bill amounting to $35,000,000, in addi tion to an appropriation bill, reaching $93,000,000. The latter bill, it is said, will be carried through to meet the extraordinory expenses of the army and navy incurred on account of the Cuban insurrection. Tho income for the new fiscal year, beginning in July, will hardly reach $14,000,000, which amount will shrink considerably should the proposed treaty with tbe United States be carried out. Therefore, there will be an enormous deficit, reaching nearly $100,000,000, to meet which the Madrid cortes must decree new taxes to Spain or call for another public loan to meet tbe interest on the same. The personal tax will be renewed. It is reported here that Captain-General Polajava, In tbe Philippines, resigned on account of the failure of the govern ment to send him 20,000 men, and not on account of his health. General Weylor has issued orders to the military commanders in cities and towns to expel all families which have any relatives in the insurgent lines. Bacuen a Arnica Halve.

Bill Against the American Tuba ceo Com pany Dlamlaeed. Teenton, N. J., March 12. Vice Chancellor Reed this morning; filed with the clerk of the court of chancery a decision dismissing the bill brought against the American Tobacco Com pany. A syllabus of the opinion is as follows: First The court of equity does not possess the power to restrain a corpor ation organized under the forms of law from performing acts within its cor porate power merely because some steps taken in organizing the corpora tion may hare been irregular or be cause the purpose of tbe incorporators may have been to establish a monopoly. Second Under these conditions quo warranto is an appropriate proceeding to challenge the right of the corpora tion to exercise its franchise. Third A trading or manufacturing corporation, until its charter is an nulled by such proceedings at law, has the same authority as the individual trader or manufacturer to sell or con sign its goods, to select its selling agents and iiupose conditions as to whom it shall sell and terms upon which it will sell. Fourth A decree restraining officers and agents of the corporation from ex ecuting its corporate powers is the same as a decree enjoining the corpor ation itself. The suit was brought jointly in tbe name of the attorney-general and Mil ler Brothers, tobacco-dealers, of New ark, for the purpose of restraining the tobacco trust from conducting business in a manner prejudicial to the com plainants and injurious to tbe people of New Jersey. HOSTILITIES mcst cease. Tbe Powers Showing a Htrone Hand In the Cretan Trouble. Pabis, March 12. The following semi-official announcement was made this afternoon: The powers,while united in principle, have not yet been able to reach a solu tion of the Cretan question. Proposals and objections are being exchanged hourly. The program drawn up by the admirals in Cretan waters is as follows: First a blockade of the Island of Crete. Second A blockade of the Piraeus and some other Greek ports.' Third Seizure by a detachment of the fleet of tbe telegraph offices at Syra. '- Fourth Any Greek warships en countered are to be taken to the island of Milo and kept them. Filth Any Greek warships firing on any foreign warship are to be sunk, and the act to be considered a casus belli. Sixth Any Greek torpedo-boat near Ing a foreign warship is to be fired at. Seventh As the blockade of Greece will require all the crews of foreign warships, each power is to send to Crete a battalion of infantry of not less than 600 men in number. Each of the foreign admirals tele graphed a copy of these proposals to his government, and most of the powers acquiesced in the movement. Correapondent Says It WiU Produce 70,000,000 Additional. Chicago, March 13. The Times Herald publishes the complete schedule of the new Dingley tariff law from its Washington correspondent, Waiter Vellman. The new tariff , bill is con ceded ftrbe the most complete legisla tive act submitted to the American congress in a quarter of a century. Boldly meeting the situation, the re publican members of the ways and means committee declare in -the title that their bill is "An act to provide revenue for the government and to pro tect the industries of the United States." The law, if enacted as given, is ex pected by members of the committee to produce an additional revenue of be tween $60,000,000 and 170,000,000 a year Estimates vary from the highest to the lowest of these figures. The chief addition to the revenue is expected from the increase of the si'gar duties. . From this source alone an ad ditional revenue of about $27,000,000 is r iticipated by Chairman Dingley. Wool is another source of new rev enue. It is estimated that the restora tion of the wool duties will provide ac increase of $14,000000,in the receipfs of the government. The restoration of the McKinley rates on .lumber and timber will add another pretty sum. Tbe flax, jute and hemp and sundries schedule will add perhaps $4,000,000 o $5,003,000. - Each of the other schedules, with a few exceptions, is expected to con tribute its quota to the increase of rev enue, the total increase being so dis tributed as to fall lightly upon any class of customers, while tbe benefits to be derived from the protective features of the law are also distributed to all lines of business and to all sec tions of the country.

The agricul tural societies will probably be in cluded in the list of claimants against the state that the secretary of the state will not recognize because of no ap propriation for the present biennial term. The agricultural boards will probably contend that they are on tbe game footing as the state university and the militia, the act creating them carrying a perpetual appropriation The wording of tbe clause upon which they depend is: "There is hereby ap propriated annually, out of any money in the state treasury not otherwise ap propriated, the sum of $ etc. Notwithstanding the wording pf the act, the agricultural appropriations appear in the general appropriation bills, which is not the case with the university and militia. It would seem that past legislatures have considered the university and militia acts carried their appropriations, while they at least bad some doubts about the agricultural societies. There are four of these societies and their ap propriations by the legislature two years ago aggregated $19,000 Plllag-lna; at Cue. Athens, March 13.

After a somewhat learned and varr Interesting discussion on the "Near ness of Animals to Man," and Mr. Gar ner's efforts toward developlnsr a mon key language, eta, some one told the following story: A young lad in a southern familv I know had a half -grown black monker- aent to him from Borneo. The crea ture, shy and strange at first, soon showdd himself responsive to kindness. quick and intelligent in learning the usual accomplishments thought neces sary in a monkey education. He be- camo warmly attached to his youthful ' owner, and the two friends might be seen anywhere together, the Borneo perched on the shoulders of young America, occasionally givinsr him an affectionate tap on the cheek, or chat tering ia his ear in the most human way possible. After awhile it was de creed that Yokko'a master must Do sent north to school, and the desolate condition of that monkey in con se quence was really pitiable be grieved and refused to be comforted for a long time, and then he suddenly became mischievous. He played such tricks and pranks that at last everybody's patience gave out and Yokko was dis posed of and disappeared. Years went by, and the venna southerner went from school to col lege. Soon after his graduation ha was visiting in some western eitv Chicago, I think and passing along the streets one day he observ ed a knot of people gathered on a corner. He ap proached to see what it meant; sud denly a great black thing lighted on his shoulders, his neck was closely clasped and a little cold, black paw -va patting and stroking his face with such an abandon of affection, such an excited chattering and murmuring as completely Dewiiderea the yonng man for a moment . ."Of course it was master Yokko, do- ' scended , to the - role v ot. an organ , monkey, aTld after all the.years, aU the travel and toil and change, he had recognized his old young master The delight was mutual, and arrangements were soon completed for the repur chase of Yokko.

When she first came aboard it was necesaary . to shut her np while we were setting- off, so a banana was put into an empty chicken coop and Majunga went in. While she was, apparently, absorbed in peeling and eating the banana tbe door of the coop was closed upon her and fastened by means of a big hasp over an eye and a big nail slipped through. So, yon see, the monkey was safe. Now, a monkey is always on the watch exactly at the moment when it seems least so; it will look in every di rection but tbe one it needs to appar ently. Consequently, Majunga bad her back to the door all the time when she had finished the banana aha turned around and without one in stant's hesitation she put her paw through the bars of the coop, lifted ont the nail, pushed open the door. and mounted on top of the coop, laid the nail beside her and with evident Interest watched what was going on."

A prominent citizen here who has a num ber of mocking birds in the trees and shrubbery in his yard, and who has time and again watched the onslaughts of this vicious little bird with an inva riable victory, states that it will be a question sooner or later of state legis lation by offering a bounty for them. They were introduced into Australia about the same time as their introduc tion into the United States for the same purpose of destroying the tree caterpillar, and that country event ually had to use the bounty method to gat rid of them.
