j THE | THE WASHINGTON BEE. TELEGRAMS IN BRIEF. THE NEWS OF THE WORLD FOR A WEEK CONDENSED FOR BUSY KEADERS. —4 bess teas A Detroit Alderman says Tom John- | son tried to buy his vote.

The complimentary vote for United States Senator will no doubt be given by the Democratic minority to Senator Brice, but it will probably not be a unanimous vote. Senator William Har- per, of Mt.

CUBANS ATTACK AND BURN THE TOWAS OF GABRIEL AND GUIRA. felegraph Wires Cut and Tracks Torn Up West Of salud, Fourteen Miles from Havana. Guira is Reported to Have {| Been Wiped Out. Havana, Cuba, Jan. 6—The insur- towns of Gabriel, Guira and Artemisia, gents have attacked and burned the stations on the Western Railway, which runs from Havana to Pinar del Rio. Gabriel and Guira are in Havana Province. Artemisia is in Pinar de: aio Province. The telegraph operator at the central station of the Western tailway learned at 2 P. M. Saturday chat communication by wire bey 2nd the town of Salud had been cut. Salud sS a point on the line fourteen miles southwest of Havana. Word was 1e- ed from Salud at 8 P. M. that there S no means of reaching Gabriel, a town of 2,500 inhabitants, five miles west of Salud. Not only were all wires gown, but the railway track had been rn up. The railway superintendent spatched a construction train from <iavana, but it got no further than Sa- iud. It returned, bringing int: that, save one house, the entir of Gabriel had been burned, includ’ all the railway property. The West- ern Railway is owned by an English corporation with headyuariers in Lon- don. The town of Guira, five miles be- yond Gabriel, a place of 4,500 popula- iion, was totally burned last night. The press censorship is absolute. The Diaria de la Marina contains no news to-day. It has an editorial coun- selling serenity, even if Gomez and Maceo are near. It says the worst thing that could happen would be for :ne insurgents to return to Santa Clara Province, because the natural conditions of the country make it easy to pursue them hereabouts and compel @ decisive battle. A Madrid despatch states that Pre- mier Canovas said Saturday that his Government only thought of sending men and supplies to Cuba. Gen. Campos is still in Havana. WILLIAM SHAW BOWEN Tampa Bay, Jan. 6.—Americans pas- sengers from Cuba last night report that there was great excitement in Havana yesterday. The insurgents burned Friday night the towns of Duran, San Felipe, Melena del Sur and Guara, in Havana province and twenty miles from Havana. The insurgents were seventeen miles from Havana, and Gomez was said to have 4,000 men. In commenting on the situation the latest Spanish papers received say the insurgents are “rractically rapping upon the front dvors of Havana resi- dences with the hilts of their mache- tes.” Camp¢s threatens all officers who disobey ‘us orders with dishonorable banishment to Spain. The Cuban leaders here scarcely be- lieve any attack will be made upon E.avana this winter, as they have no war vessels to properly protect it if they were to occupy that city. The Spanish navy could bombard it or any other seaport they might capture. Next summer, when Spain is weary of the struggle and the insurgents are strong- er they may attempt such steps. Forty Cubans, in charge of a man who called himself Martinez Salow, en- gaged rooms last Wednesday in Mc- Ardle’s lodging-house, on Exchange place, Jersey City. Twenty-two left Thursday afternoon, and the rest went away Saturday. From their conversation it is inferred that they are going to Cuba to joi. the insurgents. One told the night clerk that several of the party had been to Cuba, but were forced to leave. It is reported that recruiting head- quarters will be opened in Jersey City. FIVE TRAINMEN KILLED. Express Hunning Forty Miles an Hour Collided With a Freight Train, Chillicothe, O., Jan. 6.—Two freight trains Saturday night stood in a switch at Schooley’s Station, seven miles east of here, until the first train pulled out, and the conductor, thinking the second would follow, left the switch open. Fif- teen minutes later the Eastbound ex- press came along at forty miles an hour. It ran into the switch and collid- ed with the freight train standing there. The following persons were killed: ADDIS, GEORGE, freight train. COX, J. H., fireman who was on the freight train. KING, JESSE, brakeman on freight train. MATHERS, LEON, fireman of the ex- press. MICHAELS, THOMAS, engineer of the express. None of the passengers on the ex- press train was injured. fireman of the NICARAUGA TO SETTLERS. Good Lands May Be Offered Free, With No Taxes for Twenty Years. Managua, Nicaragua, Jan. 6—A new immigration law has been pi 9posed, which will give foreign settlers lana free, exempting them from all taxes for twenty years. To all prospective colonists who can prove to Nicaraguan agents abroad thelr honest intention to become per- manent settlers, money will be ad- vanced, under the proposed law, to pay their way to this country, the same to be repaid when possible by the colo- nists. President Zelaya strongly favors the project. Nothing Warlike in This. Washington, Jan. 7.—Sir Julian Paun- ceforte, the British Ambassador, and Lord Gough, First Secretary of the Le- sation, had a conference with Postmas- ter-General Wilson yesterday at which the establishment of a parcels-post con- vention between the United States and Great Britain was urged. The Ambassador was assured by Mr. Wilson that the matter would be con- sidered as soon as possible. © Excitement in Kentucky. Frankfort, Ky., Jan. 7.—It is said th: Democratic members of the Senate have decided to expel a publican Senator for every Democrat the Repupd- licanms unseat in the house. If this plan fails, a majority of the House and Senate Democrats will absent them- selves from the joint assembly, thereby breaking a quorum, and making the viection of a United Senator impossible.
