The 8iui!sh troopj made no attempt to pursue the enemy, but confined their work to reUtlng attack and defending public, property, making, however, little headway. The rebel Invasion coramenovd from Santiago to Jucnro and continued thence to Pltuir dd Hlo. Paths taken by- tho two rvbel columns led by Maceo and Gomel In tholr march from Santtigo ito Plnar del Rto are to this day black, aned by the torch and blighted by deso taftkra and ruin. In Havana he says he found cannon mounted at the fepproche to the oaptttil from ithe Cerro de Monte and other avenues. The trains and other public conveyunces leaving In the evening wore crowded with troo and volunteers, ndt, however, going In search of the en emy, but detailed ito occupy strategic points during the night. The general potttoRloo budding was guarded by reg. uWs. The very day he arrived, he ivw, he ctould not announce having assumed command to tils subordinates in the In. terlor for the reason thuit the telegraph wires hod been cut and railroad traffic Interrupted. All the bridges had been destroyed by dynamite and'stutton hous burned by the Insurgents In their mad and rapid flight aooras the Island.

Al of th Imtertor cities wvre viing tribute tq rebels and phtnturkins not destroyed by rebel torches during the early raiJe.were only protected by (the contributions of thetr owners. General Weyler'. chief aim was to separate the forces of Gomex and Maceo. for which purpose he con structed the military trooha of Muriel Majam, resulting In penning Maceo In the western and Gomex In the eastern province. Today ithe Unsurgwuts along the line of the trooha from Sun Fernan. do to 8an Antonio ore in groups of not more than 200 armed men. The Weak resistance offered to the tai. surgents' ait tacks on Puerto Principe, Hulquln, MiUitainillo and Suatiago - de Cuba he ascribed to tha lamentable In aufrichMicy of thWr gsurlsons. which also led to the capture by the enemy of Gulmnro, Principe, Lainas and Holquln. General Weyler patrnts a pen picture of the ooncHtlona existing today, stating thtut from Plnar dol Rto to the Jucaro I roc ha there are only a few bands of roving Insurgents and they are unable much longer to continue the dtrlfe of arms.

M'KIN LET'S POSITION. Washington, October 25. Development In Cuba within the next thirty days will definitely determine PreslderA McKln. H'i attitude npon the Bpamsb question, but he expects no troubie. The admin, aeration looks with favor on Spain's change of policy, and believes the min istry Is sincere ln.lt. endeavor to bring about a speedy tmrstrutlon of the strife hi Cuba by granting substantial reforms. Whie not fully advised aa to Spain's reply to Secretary Sherman's note, pre sented by Minister Woodford In ft-ptem-ber. Its general character to known, here and at is not anticipated by the presi dent that any friction will arise between the two countries aa a result of the exhcar.ge of notes. Tha prime object (be presflent bad hi view when General Woodford went to Madrid was bringing about an improved condition of affairs in Cuba before con. gresa reassembled. Spain's reply and her Instructions to the new captain-genera of Cuba will show an advanced step in that direction. But the administration Is mors concerned about the rapid change of potScy than It Is about the character of Spain's reply to Minister Woodford', represent atlona. They have no reason to fear that Spain win take an aggressive stand against the Cnl'.ed State. On the contrary, they are sure of a not. frtend-y and conciliatory in tone The president realises, however, the danger of further agitation by congress and a further dis turbance of our Interests If something mors substantial than the mere promises of Spain to grant autonomy cannot be furnished when the new session begins. It can hardly be expected that General Blanco within a month aftr his arrival win be able to end the war, but if it can be shown that an advanced step bas been taken In that direction. President McKlnley may by forwarding the corres pondence which has passed and calling attention to an Improved condition In Cuba, be able to pacify congress long enough to give Spain a chance thoroughly to establish her new reforms. Hence It appears that the wording of the presi. dent's forthcoming messagie depends upon the Immediate effect of General Banco' arrival srr Havana, the promulgation of an amnesty proclamation of new auton omist reforms and the abandonment of the roeoncentrado policy.

The steamer City of Seattle arrived from southern A'.asks ports. Among her passengers was L. H. Heidinger, of Puyallup. Wahlnglon, who started with the Thorp party with D4 horses and 100 cattle for Dawson City over the Dalton trail. He tells a tale of hardships and trials. When it was found impossible to get the stock through they were driven back to the coast. Before thoy reached the coast 2i cattle and Si horses died. The surviving cattle wl.'l h driven over the Chllkoot pass to Lake Bennett, where they will be killed. The meat will be frozen and hauled down the river on lee this winter. Owing to lack of food the cattle are so poor that their meat Is almost worthless. Shanahan Bros. THE ONLT STORE THAT BELLI CITE A.
