It was known that there should be In warrants and other securities about $4,000 in tills box, but when opened they found but a few do.lars.

A dispatch to tlio Iler.ild from Havana says: Mucji Incredulity Is expressed as to tho ability of the government to per suade pr compel grandees to resume planting and afford protection. The action of the Insurgents does not seem to have been taken Into conslderatiot and without thelrconscnt In exchange for tribute, no amount of government, protection can sulllco to prevjnt the burning of cane. Already the work of incon li.irlsui It ald to have been begun Sifoke Iw been rising to the southwest of Ha vana, distant apparently about 21 miles, and It is reported that tin rebels are burning plantations. Even assuming that the Insurgents would permit rcccnccntrados to flock to the plantations, It Is said to be Impossi ble to harvest tho crops owing to the extrcminatlon of oxen. Application of tin djjrea of a 111 nesty still hangs tire. General Blanco is anxious to get the American pris oners ofTdiis hands, but Is fettered by red tapel Tho Competitor prisoners aro In the hands of the naval author ities and many formalities must be gone thrpugh before they are released. It Is expected, howover,that they will soon be at liberty- Louis Somelllan, who fs a prisoner here, Is In the same predicament, being in the hands of theclvll authorities, Tho only two other American prisoners are in San tiago do Cuba, and their release has been ordered. General Blanco's Investigation Into the condition of Spain's army in Cuba have already revealed a deplor able condition of affairs. Not only are frauds in connection "with the payment of j troops being brought to light, but proof Is being obtained that of 200,000 men sent to General Weyler, only a small percentage are uow lit for actual service. The towns arc garrisoned principally hy con valescent soldiers, too weak in limuj Instances to offer more than a feebh reslstahcc to tho attach of rebels One of the llrst army surgeons saj that one of the most dllllcult tusks ol the new administration will be to care for Spain's 111 troops. In nol one of the many hospitals In Havana, for example, are there any available beds. On Novemder 0, the military gov ernor of this city, recelevd a mes sage to the effect that COO sick and wounded wildlers were on their way to Havana. He communicated this fact to the hospital authorltics,ouly to receive the reply that It was absolutely Impossible to recclye another man. The mlllitary commander In Gulncs reports that patients in the military hospital there are cntlicly without medicines and othes uecestaries, and that the food supply Is entirely In adequate. Proprietor of stores have notified the hospital authorities that they will not furnlslnany more goods on credit. In all the towns the condition of things Is Indicative of tho growing feeling In Havana against the United Statei. Yourjcorrespondent Is ablo to fctnte that the chief of the volun teer fire brigade In this city on Fri day dismissed from the ranks two naturalized American citizens. They aro two men, Cuban-born, but hold naturallntlon papers. after a hand-to-hand battle, Dclgado captured a Spanish captain and 14 soldiers. Most of them were severely wounded by machetes. While JWcy ler was here scores of wounded Cubans were stabbed to death by bayonets or shot to death as they lay stretched on tho field. It fared dif ferently with Delgado's prisoners. His surgeons were not too busy with their own wounded to dress the wounds of their enlmies. Then, while the fight was still raging, Del gado hoisted a flag of truce, and un der It returned to their commander the 15 men with their wounds staunched and they had a cuiidco for their lives. Tho splendid chivalry of this action touched the Spahlsh com mander, who retired, sending word back to Dclgado by tho wounded men's escert: "I will fight no longer with an enemy who has treated wounded Span ish soldiers so nobly." Aiesantiri iioangucz, 1110 uuoan cader, macheted 30 Spanish guerillas tear S.tn FeUpo Strong forces were vnt after Rodriguez. It Is now an nounced that the Spaniards killed 20 f Uodrlgucz's wildiersnear Managua m the 10th. A plot Is on foot to capture or kill Raoul Arangaand Nestor Arangue rin, two Cuban leaders who have been o active in the vicinity of Havana. Besides harassing the Spalnards, their prcsenco so near tills city ut terly confounds the official statement about "pacification," tho "subsidence ofthe rebellion," and such Spanish twaddl. The best efforts of the Span ish have failed to kill or capture Ar anga and Arangucrln on tho Held, so tills plot was put on foot to buy their followers to betray them. Just so General Castillo was be trayed by a false friend Into tho hands of the civil guards. Tho man who be trayed Castillo clinked Spanisli coin In his pocket and openly boasted of his perfidy In this city. Those in tho plot against Aranga and Arangucrln ure tho alleged auton omists.

Three days ago Felix Geycult was sent by the government as an ctnmls- sary to Arangucrln, who promptly hanged him. Two others sent by tho government have not yet returned or been heard from. 0 Native Savagery is Grimly, Avenged. WORK OFA GERMAN WARSHIP. A Cruiser Demolishes A Helpless New Guinean Village. "Victokia, Nov. 10. The German warship Falke, which was dispatched from Australia on receiptor the news there of tho murder of the trader, von Ilagcn, returned recently from Ger man New Guinea, having grimly avenged tho savagery of the natives. The Falke steamed directly to the village in which the murderers of the late acting governor were known to be secreted, and without a word of parley opened fire with artillery. This so terrified tho natives that they at onco carried into Stcphanport, the German capital, the Solomon Island boys, wanted for the murder, and who had broken from Imprisonment, Im posed for tho killing, two years ago of the German explorer Ehlars and his party.

London, Nov. 10. A special from Shanghai says great tension exists be tween Japan and Russia, owing to tho lattcr's efforts to control the Corcan customs, and that some of tho leading Japanese ministers arc urging the adoption of serious measures, even to the extent of war.

Dole.presldent of tho pro visional republic of Hawaii, and Chief Justice Judd aro anxious to have tho Haw'iilan annexation treaty adopted as soon as possible. Said President Dole to the World corresrendent. "The people will neyer again sub mit to a monarchy. In fact, there Is no one sufficiently enjoying the con fidence of the people of the Islands to conduct tho affairs of state under a monarchy." "Why.do they not desire to con tinue as an lodepcndct republic? he was asked. "As tho Islands aro so far away from other countries," and as (he Asiatic population Is fast Increasing In numbers, It Is a serious question if they 11. c left ulono whether tho Re public could survive with tho willing consent of the. forelgcrs. Besides, If the United States has constantly to protect the Islands under the govern ment at present, why should not the United States take them altogether ? "Tills Is a great country for com merce.
