CUBAN REBELS iTIIDC Tflll I BAN MIS, A TOWN IN THE PROV INCE OF PIN' Alt DEL RIO IS TAKEN. A kvere Fight Followed, During Which Several Men Were Killed or Wounded on Both Sides. Havana, Aug. 22. The insugents yesterday captured the city of San Lul9 ln the province of Plmar del Rio. Pinar Gerrera's force of Insurgents appeared outside SanLuls at 9:30 In the morning. A severe fight fol lowed, during which several men were killed or wounded on both sides. Eventually the insurgents captured the town and fifty rural guards, who are being held prison ers. Gerrera is now in complete con trol of San Luis, which is reported to be completely quiet. A new party of fifty insurgents ap peared at Santa Cruz del Norte, Ha vana province, today. President Palma, ln an interview said: "Our situation at first was onpre-: paredness, as is usuai ln such cases. But there is positively no cause for alarm. The movement ln Santa Clara province is small, ln Matanzas It is trifling, and the bands in Pinar j del Rio are smaller than reported, ! and poorly led." It became known later ln the day that practically all the Inhabitants of the town of Agucate had, with the Mayor, declared themselves ln Insurrection against the Government. A dispatch from Rancho Veloz, province of Santa Clara, says that a band of insurgents has been organ ized there under Colonel Relnos, and it is believed that ex-Congressman Mendieta is with them. Governor Nunez of Havana prov ince says that the organization of his local loyal bands has begun here. Final precautions are being taken to protect the reservoir at Vento and the pumping station at Palattno. Parties of insurgents have been seen in the neighborhood of both places. A number of officers have been commissioned to buy hundreds of horse3 for the rural guards now be ing recruited. The city of San Luis has a popula tion, of about 6,000, and is situated near the San Sebastian river, nine miles south by west of the city of Pinar del Hlo, in a region noted for the production of tobacco.. The enlistments of recruits for the rural guards ln Havana are pro ceeding rapidly. . The Government has received a report that ex-Congressman Mendita, a leading citizen of Santa Clara, has taken up arm with a largo force. Secretary of the Treasury Font Sterling, one of the most reliable members of the Government, said that the Government had been def initely Informed that the insurgents in Santa Clara province were, with the exception of machets and revol vers, mostly unarmed. The Mayor of Auguanate, in Ha vana province, and several other Mayors, apparently are uncertain whether to be loyal to the Govern ment or otherwise. . Havana, Aug. 23 An attempt was made last night to assassinate Gen eral Emlllo Nunez, Governor of the province of Havana. A man had a revolver leveled at the Governor as he was entering hie home.
