Three Forts Were Destroyed.
"Spanish Soldiers Joined the" Insurg
ents A GuerillaZRaid.
CmciNNATl.Feb. 1. A Commercial
Tribune special from Key West sajti
A daring attack wn made on the
troclui west of Artcmlsa last week. A
Htronjr force of lnnirj(enU, under Col
onel Pedro Bodarz attack J'nrt "So. IP,
and aftertwo liours'fljflitlnirdlBlodKCd
the earrlaon. After FUiiiniunlnir tlio
fort to surrender, which was rcfuwd,
Bodarz ordered .the dynamite jrun 1o
open on It. Tho first shell flew wide,
but tho second and third made, big
traps In the siaes.kllUnj? several of the
garrison force. A furious Infantry
flro wa malntalncd.and soon the tear
rlson (lew tho whlto Hag. They wcro
all paroled. Fifteen or the garrison
were klllfd, while but one Cuban was
hurt.
Procecdlngon the next fort.the gar
rison there carno over to Bodarz forces
at tho first demand, and stated that
they wished to fight for Cuba. They
were sick at heart of tho murderous
work which they were obliged to do.
There were 100 men,and three ofllccru,
with a good supply Of ammunition.
Both forts were destroyed.
At fort No. 7 a stout resistance was
mado, but two shots from the dyna
mite gun compelled them to surrender.
Tho Spanish soldiers wcro allowed
their freedom. This fort was burned
also. In all tho three forts much am
munition, gunH, etc., were secured.
At fort No. 0, a strongBpanlsh rein
forcement had been received, and tho
CubauB moved off. This leaves the
trocha open for any Cuban band that
may dcslro to pass through.
Ono of SanguH's guerrilla bands en
tered a small town, Montrovla, and
told tho pcoplo to move on to Ban
Cristobal at onco. Tho town was then
burned. Six men wero shut. Blxtcon
women wcro taken "prisoners" and
turned over to tho tender mercies of
tho men by Captain Mordarlo. Two
of them killed themselves with dag
gers, rather than suffer tho fate In
storo for them, Ban Cristobal and
Artemlsa aro now crowded with poor
pcoplo, compollcd to llvo In tho towns
garrisoned by Weyler's terrors.
Weyler'a Successor.
WAaniNOTON, Fob. 1. The Madrid
dispatch announcing tho appointment
of Weyler's successor as governor-gen
eral of Cuba Is considered lioro as ab
solutely authentic. A week ago Bcnor
do Lotno communicated to Secretary
Olnoy that General Atcarrugo had
been tendered this position, but no
definite action had been taken.
All American cltiicns now In prison
In Cuba as suspects will, with few ex
ceptions, bo glvon their release somo
time during tho cowing week. This
Information, It Is said, has also been
convoyed to the state department by
tho Kpanlsh legation. Tho wholo
Competitor crow, it Is understood, Is
included In tho amnesty, and there Is
a possibility that Ucnoral Julio Ban
gullly and LouIr Bomolllan may also
bo freed.
Tho state department has for some
time been conducting correspondence
wlth'tlio Spanish authorltles.negotlat-
lug for tho release of the Imprisoned
American clttiens. Tho department
has impressed the fact upon tho
Spanish governmentthat If It would
release the Imprisoned Americans, It
would go a long way toward allaying
tho feeling tin tho United States
ngtilnxt Spanish rulii In Cuba. State
department onielalt have been con
fident that they could persuade tho
Spanish government to take this view
(if tho situation, and it Is said they
have succeeded at luat,
Sonordu Louie Ucoutlncd to his
room with an attack of grip and could
not bo Interviewed on the above sub
jects, but It Is generally understood
that Senor Atoarrogo has consented
touMUiuetlio arduous role of Cuban
pacificator, and It is thought that
this policy will greatly simplify the
entanglements with tills govcrmuet.

of them and more or

drowsiness, diulness. an irritable temper
and the "blue, all links of one chain

London, Feb. 1. The conservative
newspapers warmly (protest agalnts
the protracted debate on the address
In reply to tho speech from the throne
at tho opening of parliament. They
claim the debate was about nothing
and that It reduced tho house to tho
level of a provincial debating society.
Yesterday's proceedings were the first
pieces of practical business, and It Is
an Interesting fact that the govern
ment's support yesterday and In
Thursday's debute on the action of
the board of trade In the dispute be
tween Lord Penrhyn and his quarry
men came from the liberal benches.
Not a single unofficial tory defended
the government, aud the radical
organs point to this as indicting n
decline in tho standard of parliament
ary honor of tho tories, and ask what
the latter care about, since they ap
parently care nothing for their own
bills, their own word or their own
government.
Tho gravo remarks of the secretary
of state for tho colonies, Joseph
Chamberlain, on tho situation In
South Africa created a deep Impres
sion, more especially as they wcro
unexpected. The members nssemblcd
in the lobby afterward and discussed
tho passages of his remarks In which
ho hinted nt dangerous undercurrents
In nflalrs nt tho Cape, and remarked
that his tone In reference to the
Transvaal was much sterner than his
former utterances on tho same sub
ject. Conservative newspapers pralso
Chambcilaiu'sattltudo.nnd tho Globe
expresses tho hopo that President
Krugcr will tako tho warning to heart
"for persistence In Injury and Insult
In Boer dealing will only result in tho
assertion of British suoremacy in
South Africa." Tho comments of the
other papers point to tho commlttco
as expected to rake up evidence of
Boor treachery aud Intrigue.
Tho house of commons yesterday
authorized a loan of 5,600,000 (J27,
500,000) for a military scheme, which
the parliamentary secretary for tho
war office, W. J. Brodorlck, explained
Is part of a general schemo for na
tional defense, aud Includes Increased
provision for rlflo ranges and the ac
quisition of Salisbury plain for a
maneuver ground.
Irish affairs contlnuo In tho fore
front. Tho split In tho Irish parlia
mentary party will bo completo next
week, when tho so-called 'cast-lron"
pledgo of Mr. Edward Blake, member
for tho south division of Langfurd,ud
opted on Tuesday last at a meeting of
the Irish parliamentary party, not be
ing signed by tho llealyltos, they will
bo considered us being expelled from
the party.
The substance of Mr. Blake's resolu
tion was that every member of the
party should sign u declaration that
he did not try boforo elect Ion to main
tain htiUMjlf in parliament with Idem
nlty from the parliamentary fund;that
ho will not accept Indemnity from any
The Dillonltes, who bad previously
caused the adoption of a resolution on
Monday providing for the expulsion
from the party of any one publlcy op
posing the decisions reached by a ma
jority of the .party In meeting or In
parllamcntry action of the chairman
in behalf of the party, or in 'support
ing a fund to (maintain a portion of
the party In rivalry to the Irish na
tional federation, arc determined to
drlye the Issue to a logical conclusion
as they slate that healing the breach
Isan absolute impossibility.
Timothy M, Ilcaly welcomes the re
sult as tending to clarify the position
which he believes will ultimately
lead to placing John Dillon by Mr.
Thomas Sexton at tho head of the
whole party, with Mr. John Redmond
as second choice.
But more serious things threaten
the government In tho revolt of the
Irish landlords. At the convention
of the landlords in Dublin on WedneS'
day last a letter was read from tho
Duke of Abercorn which stated that
the landlords are" suffering the most
from tho present unjust adminlstra.
tlon of the law, and the Marquis of
Londonderry stated that the govern-
I ment bill of 1890 aggravated the hard
ships and meant entire ruin to Ire
land, as tending forcefully to the ex
patriation of the land owner classes,
leaving a pauper proprietary abso
lutely without capital. The Duke of
Abercorn aud other speakers de
manded tho appointment of a royal
commission to inquire into the matter.
Wants Peace.
Pretowa. South Africa. Feb.l.
President Krugcr, In an interview
with J. B. Robinson, the millionaire
mineowner, promised a speedy re
duction in railroad rates to the gold
fields, and said that the schools would
henceforth be subsidized by the state,
and the medium of Instruction would
bo English.
Rcforring to the statement made by
Chamberlain in tho house commons
yesterdny to tho effect that promises
of reform made by tho President
Kruger had not beeu kept, the presi
dent said ho would like a definite
statement from Chamberlain as to
what promises had not been kopt.
President Kruger concluded tho In
terview by emphatically declaring
that he desired nothing Vut to main
tain peace in tho wholeof South Africa
und afford aliens every protection.
Loug uncaused for disturbances were
In opposition to his policy of peace.
