THE STRUGGLE IN CUBA. FIFTEEN THOUSAND SPANISH SOLDIERS IN THE HOSPITALS — MACEO BREAKS THE TROCHA — MORE ARMS FOR THE CUBANS. HAVANA, April 24.—Reports are being received of Spanish soldiers encumbling to the beat, and between the wounded and the sick there are fully 15,000 now in hospitals on the island. The stories about Gomez being at death's door are exaggerations. He is still in command and apparently able to keep up yet, though his age and the rough campaign through which he has passed have told upon him. The number of insurgents now between this city and the trocha has aroused some alarm here, and Gen. Weyler has been compelled to move troops from Artemisia on the line to Rincon, just back of Havana. Should Maco decide to cross the trocha there are 10,000 insurgents on this side who could render valuable assistance. The trocha is built to repel attack from the west, and were simultaneous assaults made upon it from both sides, its military value might prove to be nil. However, so long as it remains a barrier between Maco and his 10,000 men and the other 10,000 to the eastward, Gen. Weyler accomplishes something. He has won no important battle during his two months' stay, and he has failed to clear Havana and Pinar del Rio of insurgents as he set out to do; but he has stopped their movement east and weat through the narrowest part of the island. He has kept his word in that, and undoubtedly saved himself from the ignominious recall to Spain, which was pending a fortnight. KEY WEST (Fla.), April 25.—Advices received here to night state that it is rumored that Maco and the insurgent forces have broken the Spanish trocha, and that they are now in a position of safety. A great sensation has been produced in Havana by a letter from Madrid, written by Senor Goroztegui, a Deputy in the Cortes, a prominent man in Spanish politics, and some years ago Governor of the provinces of Havana and Matanzas. Senor Goroztegui writes to one of his friends, who is a high official in the Spanish Administration: "Cuba will surely be ruined by the war, but what the Spaniards must know in Havana is that Spain will come also, and very soon, to helpless bankruptcy. The 150,000 men sent to Cuba represent a standing army of 300,000, as they had to be replaced in Spain by the reserves. They are all laborers, and the country is deprived of their work, and agriculture is practically abandoned. Their families are now supported by the municipalities in Spain, and the resources of the municipalities are exhausted." "We have no credit in foreign countries, and we can only afford with our own money." Nervous People often wonder why their nerves are so weak; why they get tired so easily; why they start at every slight but sudden sound; why they do not sleep naturally; why they have frequent headaches, indigestion and nervous dyspepsia The explanation is simple. It is found in that impure blood which is continually feeding the nerves upon refuse instead of the elements of strength and vigor. In such condition opiate and nerve compounds simply deaden and do not cure. Hood's Saraparilla feeds the nerves pure, rich, red blood; gives natural sleep, perfect digestion, is the true remedy for all nervous troubles.

HAVANA, April 25.—News comes from Saneti Spiritus, Santa Clara province, of an important victory gained by the insurgents over the Spanish troops under Commander-General Oliver. Gomerz, elated over the victory recently won by Colonel Gonzales, chief of the Remedios district, ordered all his cavalry to meet on Campa estate, near here, in compliment to Gonzales. Gonzales had received word that General Oliver's troops would pass near Campa. He arranged an ambush of rapid-fire guns which would sweep the road. The Spanish troops were stopped on the road toward Guanja. Many were killed by the fire of the cannon and the rest took to their heels in awfhout, followed by the insurgent cavalry. It is difficult to describe the panic. The rebels captured the officers' horses and mules loaded with clothes, food, arms, ammunition and correspondence. The Spaniards ran to the beahob, which was near, to take the boat for Remedies. They could not retreat by land with their killed and wounded. Gonzales' few men could not divide so as to keep their ground and pursue at the same time. They knew the Spaniards would stop to burn the country houses as they passed, but they had previously prepared shell in the houses, which exploded, killing many troops. Captain-General Weyler estimates that it will require two years for the Spanish to put down the insurrection. If he is correct the total cost to Spain will amount to $200,000,-000. Cuban leaders estimate that it will require a great deal longer than two years forVOICE OF THE PRESS. SUPREME COURT SECRETS From the San Francisco Chronicle. Assuming that the Supreme Court of United States will affirm the validity of Wright law, it will not be pleasant news members that an Eastern speculator is this State buying up irrigation bonds on basis of a tip which he assumes to have about the court's decision. Up to the present time this dealer has invested over $100,000, which will be regarded as a pretty sign that he knows what he is about. Shoot his prognosis of the findings of the bench correct he will make a fortune which, for his foreknowledge of events, might be remained in the pockets of those who originally held the irrigation district curties. It goes without saying that the Chronicle implies no wrong doing on the part of members or any member of the supreme tribunal. The imputation is one of carelessness only, but it is a sort of carelessness which in the matter of decisions affect speculative stocks, ought to be guard against with scrupulous fidelity. Not on the Supreme Court but its employees who trusted with the stenographic work in preparation of findings should be above a plication. There should be no leaks. This was one in the Stanford tax case, but his pily that did not help the bond market. It is quite different with the Wright law firms which involve the investment of $20,000,000. M'KINLEY FOR PRESIDENT. From the San Francisco Bulletin. When General Grant went into convention in 1872 seeking a renomination that it was so foregone a conclusion that would be nominated that rival candidates only appeared on the scene as matters form; but except on that occasion, never was an instance till now when members of a political party seemed to unanimous in choice of a standard-beautiful It is possible, of course, that men's mind many change before the Republican Convention meets; but there is no present indication of an impending change, and nothing is likely to occur between now and June which could put a new face on matters. Unless all signs fall, the chances are that McKinley will nominate on the first ballot, the supporters of favorite sons, having paid their first choice to the compliment of a formal vote, joining in stampede to the Man of Hour. The prospect presents nothing which patriotic citizen can regret. Major McKinley is a man of honor, upright, straightforward intelligent, clear-headed; the interests of nation would be safe in his hands. And is the logical candidate of his party. Has so identified himself with the doctrine protection that he more fully represents than any other candidate who could named. Other aspirants are conditional protectionists. His faith in the doctrine unqualified. He is as devoted a belief in the policy as Henry Clay or Henry Senor Gorozotgui, a Deputy in the Cortes, a prominent man in Spanish politics, and some years ago Governor of the provinces of Havana and Matanzas. Senor Gorozotgui writes to one of his friends, who is a high official in the Spanish Administration: "Cuba will surely be ruined by the war, but what the Spaniards must know in Havana is that Spain will come also, and very soon, to helpless bankruptcy. The 150,000 men sent to Cuba represent a standing army of 300,000, as they had to be replaced in Spain by the reserves. They are all laborers, and the country is deprived of their work, and agriculture is practically abandoned. Their families are now supported by the municipalities in Spain, and the resources of the municipalities are exhausted. "We have no credit in foreign countries, and we can only afford with our own money to pay the expenses of the war until next August. From August to December we will support the operations in Cuba by means of paper money. But after that time, what shall we do? "Public opinion here is very much alarmed. Nobody understands how it is possible that the insurgents, fighting against our 150,000 regular troops and nearly the same number of Spanish volunteers, can run from one end to the other of the island, stop sugar grinding, and even win in hard fights. It looks as though even the stones in the island are against Spain. "Our efforts in the past year to ornish the revolution have been a failure. We have no resources to stand against the insurgents for two years more. Our intelligent political leaders think that we will be obliged soon to abandon Cuba as we abandoned San Domingo in 1864. The circumstances are the same. "Only the merchants of Barcelona, who would be deprived by this step of the Cuban markets in which they have enjoyed such a great monopoly, would seriously complain of such a step. Every other sensible Spaniard would rejoice, and it would delight the Spanish mothers who now weep for their unfortunate sons who are engaged in Cuba in hopeless struggle." Private copies of this letter have circulated largely in Havana, but no newspaper dares to publish it, nor even to consult the press concerto about the matter. It is said that Gen. Weyler has called to his palace the official who received the letter from Senior Gorozotgui and accused him of lack of patriotism in circulating such a document. TAMPA (Fla.), April 22.—The dispatches announcing that Cuba will get home rule are received with soorn by the Cuban colony here. Col. Fernande Figueroa, Cuban Delegate to Florida, said: "Should Spain ever proffer us home rule it will be spurned. As long as Cubans live they will fight for liberty. Absolute independence is what we want; nothing else. Campos promised us home rule in 1876, but it was never granted. We are not to be bluffed again. What they now offer is the law proposed by the Minister of Colonies in March, 1895, and accepted by the Cortes, but never put into effect. This measure was suggested by the startling capture by the insurgents of the Lagonda, Amadis and Barawa at Fernandino loaded with munitions of war for Cuba. Spain has been both to concede that much to us, but now thinks it the only redeeming measure. If they have our forces in Cuba so scattered, bewildered and surrounded, why are they so eager to grant any such concessions? KEY WEST (Fla.), April 22.—The schooner Competitor, commanded by Alfred Laborde, left this port midnight last night with arms and men for Cuba. The schooner carries sixty Cubans and Americans. It is said to have aboard 800 rifles, 500 machetes and 150,000 rounds of ammunition. The Competitor proceeded to Sugar Loaf key, twenty-five miles north of here, where more munitions and arms were taken on board. It is said that the Cubans waiting on Sugar Loaf key have three rapid-fire guns. After getting the arms and men at Sugar Loaf key the Competitor was to be met by the steam tag George W. Childs, which had been engaged to tow the schooner to Cuba. Laborde told his friends the expedition would land in Pinar del Rio province to. "It is difficult to describe the panic. The rebels captured the officers' horses and mules. Loaded with clothes, food, arms, ammunition and correspondence. The Spaniards ran to the beach, which was near, to take the boat for Remedios. They could not retreat by land with their killed and wounded. Gonzales few men could not divide so as to keep their ground and pursue at the same time. They knew the Spaniards would stop to burn the country houses as they passed, but they had previously prepared shell in the houses, which exploded, killing many troops. Captain-General Weyler estimates that it will require two years for the Spanish to put down the insurrection. If he is correct the total cost to Spain will amount to $200,000,-000. Cuban leaders estimate that it will require a great deal longer than two years for Spain to ornish the rebellion, even if she can accomplish it in any length of time. If the war last ten years the cost to Spain will amount to $750,000,000. HAVANA, April 24.—Dispatches received from Manzanillo, province of Santiago de Cuba, give details of the defense of Fort Seconja by a small force of Spanish troops. The fort was besieged by about 3,500 insurgents of the provinces of Puerto Principe and Santiago de Cuba, commanded by Rodriguez-Pabl, Capote and others. The attack of the insurgents was carried on with vigor for four days, during which the detachment of troops defended the place day and night, although the soldiers suffered terribly from lack of water. The insurgents had with them two rapid-firing guns. One of them belonged to Pablo's column and the other was recently landed near Guayají, and was manned by American gunners. The latter made excellent practice, firing about 215 shots from their piece, and destroying the small reservoirs used for the storage of water, riddling the barracks, beating down the storehouses and doing great damage to the fort. Three times the insurgents sent messages to the fort, offering to accept the surrender of the garrison with honor, but the Spaniards refused to give up the fort, and continued fighting with great enthusiasm, announcing their intention of accepting death before surrender. News of the siege of Fort Seconja was carried to Manzanillo, and Gen. Nunez, with a column of troops, soon afterward left that city on board four small gunboats and two tugboats for the River Canto, and protected by the guns of the warships, the troops were landed at two points in the vicinity of the besieged fort. The insurgents no sooner saw the troops landing than they beat a retreat. The situation from a military standpoint is unchanged. General Weyler's troops hold the troocha and Antonio Macao is encamped a few miles west of it, apparently in no hurry to cross it. The stories of his being in a bad way for food and clothes for his men, and the reports that he is ready to surrender or fly from the island in a boat are absurdities. It is known by Spanish officers who have taken part in recent operations against Macao that he has a strong force of well-armed men with him and that the insurgents have large quantities of provisions stored in the bills. JACKSONVILLE, Fla., April 27.—A steamship arrived in this port at 8 o'clock last night and is being loaded with war material for the Cuban insurgents. This steamer is lying in mid stream instead of at a dock and large boats are transferring the arms and ammunition from the dock to the vessel. It is said that 5000 rifles, 4000 revolvers, 3000 machineets, 5,000,000 cartridges, eight Hotchkiss guns and several Galiling guns will be completed and then a tug will tow the vessel across the bar, twenty miles below the city. By daylight the vessel should be far on her way to Cuba. In dropping down river the vessel will pick up twenty Cubans who came here from New York by rail. There is little danger of interference, as the Cubans have chosen their time well. The United States revenue cutter Boutwell to night sailed for Charleston, and every official connected with the United States Court is out of the city and is not expected The prospect presents nothing which patriotic citizen can regret. Major McKinney is a man of honor, upright, straightforward intelligent, clear-headed;the interests of nation would be safe in his hands. And he is logical candidate of his party. He has so identified himself with the doctrine protection that he more fully represents than any other candidate who could name other aspirants are conditional policyteachers. His faith in the doctrine unqualified. He is as devoted a belief in the policy as Henry Clay or Henry Carey were. His election will signify to world that the American people hold that products of American industry should protect by law against the competition foreign industry;the election of any one might leave the question open to controversy in certain circumstances. With McKinney as the standard-bearer there could be no certainty where the Republican party stands. THE LOS ANGELES FIESTA AND ITS ENGAGEMENT AMUSEMENTS. From the Times. It is to be regretted that there was no considerable roughness and rowdyism on part of certain hoodlumish individuals Saturday night's street carnival; and it further to be regretted that the dirty loot who pushed,crowded and fumbled women persons were not promptly kicked into insanity and handed over to the surgeon's police. It is most unfortunate that there are ways a few persons in every crowd when given freedom at once proceed abruptly it and turn it into license. While the general assemblage on Saturday night was of innocent jollity and bilarity,a few evoked wretches,they deservethe obshang,gere allowedto disgracethemselfand boisterous behavior. There should hereafter be on carnival night a big force of officers abroad in costume,a first gang that commences to push joist,sorale first impudent puppy who tempts familiarities with women,s should speedily arrested and promptly punish Otherwise carnival night whichup to time has been oneofthe greatest features La Fiestawillbea thingonthetickettobewoolyfoefootbishopaspass.

The schooner carries sixty Cubans and Americans. It is said to have aboard 800 rifles, 600 revolvers, 500 machetes and 150,000 rounds of ammunition. The Competitor proceeded to Sugar Loaf key, twenty-five miles north of here, where more munitions and arms were taken on board. It is said that the Cubans waiting on Sugar Loaf key have three rapid-fire guns. After getting the arms and men at Sugar Loaf key the Competitor was to be met by the steam tug George W. Childs, which had been engaged to tow the schooner to Cuba. Laborde told his friends the expedition would land in Pinar del Rio province tonight. The schooner slipped out under the nose of the revenue cutter Merrill. When it was learned that it carried arms and men, the customs officers ordered the Merrill to pursue her, but the schooner had too good a start to be overtaken. Alfred Laborde, who commanded the expedition, is a wealthy Cuban of Tampa. Cuban leaders here say that as soon as Maceo receives the ammunition carried by the Competitor an attack will be made upon the troops. A man who just arrived here from Pinar del Rio says he heard constantly for three days the roar of cannon thirty miles from Babia Honda, at Cabanas. The residents say that Maceo is hard pressed by the Spanish troops. The Spaniards here now agree that autonomy would be the best policy. The Cubans say they will accept no more Spanish promises. Many think the time to negotiate has passed. The insurgents claim that their cause is stronger with the passage of every day. The best horses in Havana livery stables have been seized under the Government's decree and the owners have been pled with promises. Most of the stables belong to Frenchmen, who are indignant and have complained to their Consul, Count Salas, who has accepted a Spanish decoration and is unwilling to make a strong stand for their rights. A Frenchman at Matanzas intends to test the question of the right of the authorities to open his letters. He received a package of papers with the French Government seal broken. He has lodged a formal complaint. NEW YORK, April 22—The Herald's Havana cable says: The insurgents declare that Gomez is on his way east toward Havana province, where he will join the forces led by Jose Maceo, Pancho Carrillo, Serafin Sanchez, Rodriguez, Aguirre, Lacret, Roque, Nunez, Masso and Parra. These comprise about 18,000 men. It is believed that Gomez will make a demonstration this side of the strong line, in order to concentrate the Spanish troops at one point, so that Antonio Maceo may have a chance to break through at another point if he should need food. Jose Maceo is now at Lausal, Havana province, with 2,500 men. Reports say that Bariche, with 300 men, has crossed the line. He saw the Spanish leaders on this side, mid stream instead of at a dock and large boats are transferring the arms and ammunition from the dock to the vessel. It is said that 5000 rifles, 4000 revolvers, 3000 maquettes, 5,000,000 cartridges, eight Hotchkiss gun and several Gatling guns will be placed on board. The task will be completed and then a tug will tow the vessel across the bar, twenty miles below the city. By daylight the vessel should be far on her way to Cuba. In dropping down the river the vessel will pick up twenty Cubans who came here from New York by rail. There is little danger of interference, as the Cubans have chosen their time well. The United States revenue cutter Boutwell to night sailed for Charleston, and every official connected with the United States Court is out of the city and is not expected to return until neon to-day. These are only coincidents, but they have driven the Spanish vice-consul wild. His men have tried to enter the dock, but have been prevented by Cuban agents. The vessel will try to land on the coast of Pinar del Rio, which province General Macao controls. She may meet the Spanish cruiser Mercedes on route. This cruiser sailed north from Key West Saturday to intercept the filibusterer. SILENCING A BATTERY AN INCIDENT OF THE SIEGE OF VICKSBURG. General McClernand, being much annoyed by the work being done by the battery of the Confederate forts at Vicksburg immediately in front of him, ordered General Smith to have two guns carried up a hill from which they could command the fort and effectually return the rebel fire. General Smith went to several of the batteries, but the officers demurred, saying it would be impossible to accomplish, and meant certain death for all who essayed it. General Smith, not liking to give a positive order, sent for Captain White of the Chicago Mercantile Battery. "Captain," he said, "if you can get two guns up that hill we will have the fort in half an hour." "I will try, general," answered White. He went to his battery, told the men the work that was before them, and immediately set on foot preparations. All being in readiness, the men started up the hill, carrying their guns. One of the guns was struck by a shell from the fort battery and several of the men were killed. Captain White and his party with the other gun reached the crest of the bill in safety, double-shotting it quickly and the captain himself directing it was fired. It is said that the shot entered the mouth of a Confederate cannon which was just ready to be discharged, and exploded it. This theory is due to the widespread destruction which occurred. Many of the Confederates were blown into the air, the cotton bales on top of the fort were set on fire and the fort was rendered a complete wreck. This writer is well acquainted with this region proposed to be opened by this line railway, and knows it to be rich in many any, rubber and other valuable forests; also minerals, including gold and silver. The line would strike the Escondido at near Rama, to which point large banks steamers ascend at all seasons of the year. With some dredging at the mouth of river Bluefields, steamers of 18 feet deep could easily reach the railway contemplation by the Southern Pacific; if the reports from Nicaragua may be credited. Immense nana plantations line the river banks miles, and the new line would open a cozy beyond capable of producing anything grown in tropical countries. New Orleander would doubtless secure the lion's share trade developed by the further opening of that part of Nicaragua, but it would American and not English or German commerce that would profit by the new enterprise. JUDGE STEIGLITZ ON HIS TRAVELS. From the San Pedro American. Attorney Steiglitz deserves credit for thing, at least. That is his large and generous gall. Any ordinary man would be taken to the timber for a year or so after dead cold frost which greeted his "meeting" here two weeks ago, but Judge Steiglitz is made of far sterner stuff. Has gathered a small but gallant crew, once subscriptions to defray his own expenses his overcoat and Mr. Patterson's benediotic he started for Downey. The meeting at that place was a first likewise, but they tell me that Mr. Steiglitz made a great impression on the Derra crattle county committee, and that he chances of being the nominee of his pass for the Assembly have been greatly proved by his junketing trip, otherwise known (and subscribed to) as a "harry crusade."

He hath conquered well that has made his enemy fly; mayest beat him to a desperate resistance, which may ruin thee.—George Herbert. I would much rather fight pride than vanity, because pride has a stand-up way of fighting, but vanity is that delusive, that insectivorous, that multiplied feeling, and men that fight vanities are like men that fight midgets and butterflies. It is easier to chase them than to hit them.—Beecher. Words have not their import from the natural power of particular combinations of characters, or from the real efficacy of certain sounds, but from the consent of those who use them, and arbitrarily annex certain ideas to them, which might have been signified with equal propriety by others.—Oliver Cromwell. I respect the man who knows distinctly what he wishes. The greater part of all the mischief in the world arises from the fact that men do not sufficiently understand their own aims. They have undertaken to build a tower, and spend no more labor on the foundation than would be necessary to erect a hut.—Goethe. Where is the reward of virtue? and what recompense has nature provided for such important sacrifices as those of life and fortune, which we must often make to it? O sons of earth!

The greater part of all the mischief in the world arises from the fact that men do not sufficiently understand their own aims. They have undertaken to build a tower, and spend no more labor on the foundation than would be necessary to erect a hut.—Goethe. Where is the reward of virtue? and what recompense has nature provided for such important sacrifices as those of life and fortune, which we must often make to it? O sons of earth! Are ye ignorant of the value of this celestial mistress? And do ye meanly inquire for her portion when ye observe her genuine beauty?—Hume. Frank Shepardson, an engineer on the Southern Pacific Railway, who resides at Los Angeles, Cal., was troubled with rheumatism for a long time. He was treated by several physicians, also visited the Hot Springs, but received no permanent relief until he used Chamberlain's Pain Balm. He says it is the best medicine in the world for rheumatism. For sale by Derge. Violence ever defeats its own ends. Where you cannot drive you can always persuade. A gentle word, a kind look, a good-natured smile can work wonders and accomplish miracles. There is a secret pride in every human heart that revolts at tyranny. You may order and drive an individual, but you cannot make him respect you.—Hazlitt. When Baby was sick, we gave her Castoria. When she was a Child, she cried for Castoria. When she became Miss, she clung to Castoria. When she had Children, she gave them Castoria.
