HOPEFUL OF SUCGESS CUBAN OFFICIALS ANXIOUSLY AWAITING NEWS OF BATTLE IN PINAR DEL RIO, NEW BANDS OF REBELS ORGANIZiNG NO ATTEMPT IN HAVANA TO DISGUISE THE GRAVITY OF THE SITUATION. Havana, Aug. 31.—No news of the operations of Colonel Avalos, com- mander of the government forces in Pinar del Rio, has been received at the palace, military headquarters or elsewhere since he left San Juan de Martinez in search of the main insur- gent body, commanded by Pino Guer- ra, Government circles continue hope- ful of his success, but the fact is not lost sight of that the government troops are moving into the center of their opponents’ territory and that the numbers of the insurgents are not known. New bands are reported to have been organized in various places in Pinar del Rio and elsewhere, vhich gives the situation a gravity which there is no attempt to disguise. Up to noon no reports of engagements of importance had been received, al- though desultory skirmishes with mi- nor bands of insurgents, especially westward, had taken place. No sug- gestions have been received at the palace from anybody of a settlement of the insurrection om political lines. It is stated that the government would not enconrage such a course under the present circumstances. Tie Americans criticise the citizens of the United States who had enliszed in the government’s machine gun corps, believing that they should have remained non-combatants. BITTER QUARREL OCCURS. President and Vice President of Cuba Have Hot Words. Havana, Aug. 31.—Rumor is busy with suggestions of a conspiracy among the police and an open quarrel between President Palma and Vice President Mendez Capote. Both re- ports lack definite confirmation. At the palace silence is maintained. In certain quarters Capote is suspected of hargaining with the insurgeats. In the event of the fall of Palma, how- ever, there is little likelihood that the insurgents would make Capote_pres- ident. They certainly would not with- out at least the formality of an elec- tion. In the reported quarrel at the palace bitter words are sald to have passed, calminating in Palma denounc- ing Capote as a traitor. The vice pres- ident is said to have replied that Pal- ma was a president without power. REVOLT GROWS RAPIDLY. Insurgent Sentimert Is Daily Growing Stronger. Havana, Aug. 31.—Insurgent senti- ment is looming stronger daily in the country districts of the provinces of Havana, Pinar del Rio and Santa Clara, and is now reported to ge gain- {ng headway in Santiago. Persons arrlving here from the country say the people are restless and becoming more and more ex- cited, The talk of the towns is of those ‘who have gone out to join the: insur- gents and Lhe chances of winning against the government. There are grave doubts of the loy- alty of recruits, and especially of ne- gro recruits who are suspected in many quarters of-a willingness to join the other side, with which many o people are identified.” = 2 ‘e For County Superintendent. J. J. Regan, the present coanty sup:rintendant of schools, is seeking renomination aud 1s conducting a vigorous campaign for same.
