The Engagment Virtually a Defeat For Campos’ Forces. Havana, Dec. 26.—Furtber details have reached here from Matanzas of | the rapid advance of the insurgent army, pumbering about 2,000 men, Havana,stter forcing its way through the province of Santa Clara and into the province at Matanzas, in spite of the efforts of Capt.-Gen. Martinez de Campos and about 80,000 troops at his disposal. The fight at the Coliseo plantation on Tuesday was between a portion of the northern column and of three insurgent columns pushing through the proviuce of Matanzas, and instead of turning out to be a great victory for the Spaniards, the result of the engagement was virtu- ally a defeat for Campos’ forces, for the Cuban army pushed onward un- checked and is still advancing on this city. Admitting the insurgents number 12,000 men, can they capture this city, and can they hold it if they do obtain possession’? There is .a strong garrison of this place,the high walls of the forts and the Spanish fleet to be reckoned with. It must be quick- ly done or fail altogether, it would appear, for it seems impossible that Campos cannot gather together some kind of a force and start in pursuit of Gomez and Maceo. The admires of the Captain Gen- eral claim that he is allowing the Cubans to get by him and nearer and nearer to Havana only for the purpose of eveniually falling upon them in the rear and scattering them to all the points of the compass. This sounds plausible enough, but the insurgents are destroying all bridges, railways and plantations be hind them. The route they have followed is marked by a blackened swath of smoking ruin and desola tion, and the Spaniards will have a very difficult task to push on after their fleet-footed enemies. Besides within two weeks Campos has changed his headquarters from Santa Clara to Cienfuegos, from Ci enfuegos to Palmillas. from Palmil- las to Colon, Colon to Jovel- lanos to Limonare and from Limo- nare to Guanabana. All there changes were direct retreats before the enemy, in the hope, it is true, of being able to bring about a pitched battle. This seems to be the secret of the failure of the Spaniards to check the advance of the Cubans.

Friendly Yaquis reported the affair to the authorities, and after a pursuit of several weeks the perpetrators were captured in their ;mountain home December 1. They were taken to Guayamas and thence to the City of Mexico, where they will be executed. The names of the Americans are not known to the authorities, being a party of prospectors who had been panning gold in the Yaqui river for some months before they were killed. Every clue which might kave led to their identity was destroyed by the cannibals. Deming, The Discovery Saved His Life. Mr. G.
