Upon General Campoa' arrival In Corunna a few clays ho Is quoted as having stated. In conversation with a Spanish correspondent who met him aboard the steamer , that homo lule must be granted to Cuba. This remark , coming from General Campos , no doubt cre ated great excitement.

A strong military guard was stationed there while the mills were In operation. Only 17.- 000 bags of tnigar were produced , Thu usual output nt Toledo Is 100.0QO bags. The great difference Is due to the fad that the railroad - ! road has been unable to haul sugar cano from the fields of the plantation. FLEEING HEKORE WEVLER.

News was received hero today confirming the report that Jose Maceo , the Insurgent leader , Is suffering from a wound In the leg. Dispatches received from Santiago do Cuba are of a more reassuring nature than for some time past. They state the planters arc able to continue grinding their sugar cane without molestation and that the Insurgents are not making any ef forts of Importance In that part of the Island. According to a dispatch from Matanzas a force of 1,500 Insurgents Is encamped at the Gonzalcs plantation In the Matanzas dis trict , resting after a long march from the cast and evidently Intending to-push n west ward shortly. At the plantations' of Union and Asturlas Cuevitas , in the province of Matanzas , an additional force of 1,000 Insur gents Is encamped resting before marching toward the province of Havana. A third forsa moving westward , under Qulntln Han dera , trying to effect a Junction with Gomez's forces , "was engaged by the Spanish troops , unded General Godey , and compelled to move northward , toward the coast , between Aronla and Sagua la Cblca. Handera's Insurgents nro carrying numbers of sick and wounded , the latter having their Injuries badly dressed. Many unarmed mon are also with the two Insurgent forces Just referred to. It Is rumored General Gomez Is going to establish a seat of government at Slgulnea , province of Santa Clara. Ho Is announced to bo on the move between Databano , Salud and Muriel , this province. General Antonio Maceo Is still in the vicinity of the military line drawn across the province' of Plnar del Rio , but up to the present time has not been able to pass It. A detachment of government guerillas has been engaged with a band of fifty insurgents , who left five killed and five rifles , after hav ing burned the great cane fields In the vicin ity of Espsranza , province of Santa Clara. Scnclon , "La Muerto , " a well known Insur gent leader , who held the rank of brigadier general ; has been killed in an engagement. At Trinidad , province of Santa Clara , the Insurgents have burned a number of cano .fields , In addition to destroying by fire the plantation of Solltarlo. Some of the cano fields of Constancla have also been burned , but the planters continue grinding cano. General Luque arrived yesterday at Data bano. It la said the Insurgent loss at the battle of Soreal was 800. Upon learning of the whereabouts of General Marln , Antonio Maceo besieged and attacked the town of 'Gandekarla ' , in Plnar del Rio. When the news of thlo was received by the Spanish troops along the trocha , from Marlel to Guanjay , they iwero ordered to redouble their vigilance. In case It should happen that the attack on Candelarla was only a diversion and the enemy should try In the meantime to pass the line , The volunteers defending Candelarla have already made a heroic defense for twenty-six houre , and their ammunition is growing scarce , and their position difficult. General Canella attacked and had a battle with the numerous bands under Maceo , Del- gado. Nunez and Stomayer. and the forces of Dormudez. The artillery opened flre upon the insurgents , who wore forced to re killed and sv- treat. They loft twenty-six onteen prisoners , and retired with numerous wounded. The troops report flvo killed and four officers and sixty-eight soldiers and volunteers wounded. General Wcylor has left Porto Rico for Havana. _ | p TO CUT OVlf THEIR CUES. I.iitont Edict ot ( lie Kind of Corcn Crouton CoiiMternatloii. SAN FRANCISCO , Feb. 7. The steamer Gaelic , from Hong Kong and Yokohama , today brought the following advices : Ot the many changes Introduced In quick succes sion In Corea , the recent adoption of the western method of hair dressing has at tracted most attention. The king recently Issued a proclamation urging the sacrifice of the cues , and sot the example by having his own hair cut , the prince royal following suit. The proclamation created consternation In both official and private circles. The min ister of education resigned and retired to his country homo , when his protests at the In novation were disregarded. Many lesser government officials also resigned rather than sacrifice their locks. The proclamation oxclted alarm among the people at large , but at each of tlio four gates of the capital constables are pooled to await the coming of country people and to compel them to submit to the barbers , who are In wait for their victims. Western hats and coats are generally adopted by these who lese their cues. In the rural district the Coreans have broken out Into actual rebellion at the proclamation , Many local governors have resigned their posts , owing to their unwillingness to cut off their cues , several hundred people have fled to the mountains , and as many more are under arms , preparing to attack the Corean troops. The rebellion In Formosa Is unchecked , Ono army of rebels has taken up Its position at Tou-Wel , and another has asbembled at Camphor mount. The Japanen troopi are confident of defeating the rebels , but cannot attack thorn In their mountain retreats. Court IN Iiuiirticdcnlilc , PARIS , Fob. 7.

DISPATCHES MADE PUBLIC Ono Sent by Secretary Ohnmborlnin to Onpo Colony Gazetted , REVIEW OF THE TRANSVAAL SITUATION Offered for ( he Settle ment of ( lie Hand Tr'otlMi'N President KreiiKor Invited ( o Conic ( o England. LONDON , Feb. 7. The dlspalch of the eccrotary cf stale for Ihe colonies , Mr. Jo seph Chamberlain , of February 4 , to the gov ernor of Capo Colony Sir Hercules Robin son , was gazetted this evening. H reviews the history of events In the Transvaal since 1S91 and points out that the mining Inter ests , the mainstay of the country , are mainly In Iho hands of Iho ulllandcrs , who are de barred by legislation from the rights of citi zenship , and states that the whole direction of affairs andi the right of taxation remain a monopoly In the hands of a decreasing mlnorlly of the population engaged In agri culture , whilst the majority , who raised the revenue from 75,000 lo 2,000,000 , are denied any voice In the government of the Trans vaal , and are unable to obtain redress for the formidable grievances hampering them Incessantly. Mr. Chamberlain emphasises the pacific and abovcboard character of the ultlandcr agltallon and recalls lhat the ultlanders' pe- Ullons were rejected by the Volksroad amid BflOrnful laughter , one member of Uial boJy challenging the ultlanders to take up arms and fight. The massing of the Bechuanaland police at Mcfcklng did not cause anxiety , as It was understood to bo merely a rendezvous prior lo disbanding. When It was suggested on the 29th of December th'at the Chartered company's police might convene at Johannes burg , Mr. Chamberlain wired n warning to Governor Robinson , Instructing him lo warn Mr. Cecil Rhodes , Ihe premier of Cape Col ony , of Ihe consequences. Unfortunately Dr. JameiOn had already entered the Transvaal. Tin document then reviews the subssquent events until Governor Robinson returned to Capetown , mentioning that President Krue- gcr refused Governor Robinson definite as surances that reforms would be granted the ultlandcrs , owing lo the suspicion that there was a widespread conspiracy to overthrow Ihe constitution. Ho then proceeds to state the position of Great Britain and her claims toward Ihe Transvaal , saying : "Since the convention of 1884 Great Britain has recognized the Tranb- vaal as Independent Internally , but Its ex ternal relations are subject o the control of Greal Britain. There Is no reason to antic ipate that a foreign state will dispute our rights , but It Is necessary to stale clearly lhat the government Intends to maintain Ihem In Ihelr Inlegrlly. Inlernally Great Britain Is justified In the Interests of South Africa as a whole and for the peace and stability of the Transvaal to tender friendly counsels regarding the newcomers , mainly British subjecls. " The dispatch then deals at length with the grievances of the Rand and expresses Mr. Chamberlain's belief that the difficulty of naturalization and the franchise could bo met by granting the franchise "after five years' residence and the removal of the objectionable features of the oath of alle giance , which would still deprive the maker of the oath of his status as 'a "British" sub ject.Mr. Mr. Chamberlain suggests the considera tion of the olhcr grievances laxallon. edu cation and monopolies , and especially' the ex clusion of ultlanders from the police , and proposes that the Rand bo accorded modi- fled local autonomy. Including" control of Its own taxation , subject to tho.paymenl to the government of annual , rlld'lng tribute1 , based on the fluctuations of the mining In dustry , such legislation to bo subject to the veto of the president and executive. Mr. Chamberlain further suggests that the Rand also be given a superior law court and thai Ihe Randers be not entitled to vote In the Volksraad , execullvo or tho"presi dent's election , thus relieving the burghera ot Ihelr haunting fear that the newcomers would utilize Ihe franchise to upset their form of governmenl. The dlspalch concludes "These suggesllons are not offered In degradation of the presi dent's authority , but as a sincere and friendly contrlbullon of her majesly's government of a settlement of a question which continues to threaten the life of the republic and the welfare and progress of South Africa. " As the setllcment Involves so many details which are easily tattled by a personal con ference , Mr. Chamberlain suggests lo Presl- donl Krueger that If It Is convenient and agreeable lo him he should come lo Eng land. . GERMANY JVEEDS MORE CRUISERS. Impel-In ! Polled I'nrtlnlly Outlined in ( lie IleleliHdiK. BERLIN , Feb. 7. Before the budget com- mllteo leday Baron Marschall von Bleber- sleln , the mlnlsler for foreign affairs , stated that the question of a considerable addition to tbo German navy had for a long Urns been under consideration and that when the deliberations were concluded the result would be communicated to the Reichstag. Ho added that the need of additional cruisers had long been felt and that the number of cruisers belonging to foreign countries had been con siderably Increased.during 1895. The m'nlsler added that the questions to bo considered wcro the safety of the colonies and Iho maintenance of German authority Ihere. The Increased nod of cruisers , ho also said , did nol arise from events of recent date , but was the outcome of Iho growlh of the Gor man Intcresls abroad , "notably In the exports of German products , which had made vast expansions during 1895 , The fleet , ho Insisted , must keep pace with these Interests and It was a fact thai the empire could not afford to Ignore. Replying to a question on the subject the minister for foreign affairs said ho was pre pared to give full explanations regarding the Transvaal , ana In answer lo Herr von Rlchter Baron Marschall von Bleberslcln announced lhat he accepted the responsibility for Em peror William's dispatch to President Krue ger congratulating the latter upon having suppressed the Invaders of the territory of the South African republic.

Lalcr ho heard Mr. Leonard , whose arrest the Caps Town aulhorlllea sought to effect at Tenerlffc , Canary Islands , the other day , on his way to England , make a speech to the crowd , In which he tald : "We do not have equal rights with the Boers.

The positions are held almost exclusively by Americans , most of whom , perhaps , naturally , were conspicu ous In the reform committee. It is the belief here among the' South Af rican magnates that the moral Influence ijf the United States In favor of the desired re forms In the Transvaal mining laws , as well as In behalf of Iho accussd , would go much firlher lhan that of England. It Is argued also that the United States has a direct In terest In promoting the extreme production of gold there , which largely depends upon these reforms. The present production amounts now to about $40,000,000 annually , but experts insist that , with Iho development of deep level mines , Ibis will be doubted. Although these mines have not paid a dividend , ro sure Is Euro pean capital of their ultimate great pro- ductlvenew , that their 1 ( $5) ) shares sell on an average , even after all the recent troubles , at 26 ( $130) ) each. The Increased production expected would , It is claimed , go far toward solving the silver question In Ihe United States and Inevitably Increase Ihe prlceo for American cotton , wheat and other products.

( Now York World Cablegram Special Telegram. ) One of the severest encounters between the In- ourgents , trailer Maceo , and tlio Spanish columns , took place yesterday In ami about the llttlo town of Candalcrla. Plnar del Rio province , on the railroad line between Arto- mosla and Wnar del Rio city. General .Mnrhi , still In Qulvlcan with his command , learning early In the day that Maceo had at tacked Candalcrla , hurried a force of In fantry , cavalry and artillery to the place. Since General Marln has been In the flcld lin had had considerable experience with the Insurgents' methods , and suspected that a scheme wns on foot to Induce him to weaken the military "wall , " so that , while the Span ish troops were hastening toward Candalerla other rebel forces would try to break through In the northern portion of the province. To prevent this General Marln at the same time ordered several columns northward to protect the line between Guanajay and Maklel. It was afternoon when General Canello's command reached the outskirts of Canda lerla. He then learned that the small garrison risen of the town had been able to maintain Its position , although compelled to flght against great odds. The supply of ammuni tion was nearly exhausted when General Canella arrived. The Spanish troops drove the Insurgents' skirmishers Into the town. where General Canella engaged the main body of the rebels. After a two hours' flght the Spanlirds dispersed the rebels , who re treated toward San Cristobal. The Insurgents were under command of Maceo , assisted by Nunez , Dilgado , Solomanor and Burmudez. The last nnmcd was officially reported dead sons days nco. General Canella reported to General Marjn that the Spanish lost five soldiers killed. Three officers and forty-eight soldiers wounded. The. Insurgent losses are ; given as twenty-six killed , manyi.wguttd.od and eeven- "teaa taken ' prlsdttersHftifornwtlon- .reached hero that In addition to the number of Insurgents killed , reported by General Canella , nineteen bodies were found on tlie field , making thirty-five killed. Among the wounded on the Spanish side laDen Don Alfonso .Canella , .captain of artillery. The mayor'of Candalerla was also wounded. Marin learned that Canella had encountered the entire rebel force under Maceo , now acknowledged oven by the Spanish generals to number over 6,000. Ho changed his plans and started out to assist Canella , who had gone In pursuit of Maceo. General Marln reached CamJalorla late yesterday and took command of the town , strengthened Us garrison risen , and established outposts and wont Into camp. Today ho started over the route taken by Canella. ' Maceo , at the latest accounts tonight , was retreating westward rapidly , the Spanish still fol'owlng. General Marln had Intended to return to Havana today , and preparations' were made to give him an enthusiastic reception. The United railway station was gaily decorated. There was great disappointment when It became known that Jio had decided to re main In the flcld and probably would not come hero before Sunday. Nobody t eems to know what has become of Gomez. Ho Is supposed to 'bo ' a short distance south of Guanajay and near the Havana province border. For that reason General Marln ordered a strong detachment sent north to prevent , If possible , Gomez retreating eastward or Joining Maceo. ROEDER. HANGED FOR WHOLESALE MUIH1EH.

Ho waited till the thrco members of the board arrived to open the polls. He entered the building and announced that ho wanted a reckoning.
