STORY PROVES TO HAVE BEEN GROUNDLESS Has a Brash with Rehela and Jaaetlon Is Formed with the Garrison from , City Of Pino del Rio Peace Negotiations Coattaue. HAVANA. Sept. 9. Government, military and railroad omclala and -The newspaper correspondents were thrown Into a state of excitement tins evening vy men wuu uu arrived here from I'aso Real with stories that the armored train which loft Havana Friday and met with various obstacles be yond Herradura, had been thrown from the tracks and Its 300 men, machine guns, horses and equipment captured. A these talea were confirmed by the Western Rail road's first telegraphic advices from I'aso Real they were believed to be true until authentic reports of actual occurrences were wired by thore who had returned to Paso Real from the scene. The real facts of the case sre that Colonel Avalos, who waa believed to be aurroumlod In Plnar del Rio City, and the armored train made a Junction east of Consolaclon del Bur, and the government forces to thst extent are Improved. The news of this fact caused much relief In official circles. The train proceeded Saturday evening from Pnso Real to two and one-third miles east of Consolaclon del Stir, at which point the rails had been removed, and replaced a locomotive' and three cars which had been thrown from the trsck. The Insur gents attacked, but were driven off by the two machine gun, handled by the Amer ican captain, Webster. ' It Is believed that many Insurgents were killed, but the number is not known. Mesnwhlle a large portion of Colonel Avnlos' force had come esstward from Plnsr del Rio for the purpose of making a Junction with the machine gun corps. At Consolaclon del Bur their advance was dis puted by a large band of Insurgent and ft lively fight enaued. The Insurgents were driven off and several of them were killed or wounded. Avalos and his men contin ued their Journey eastward this morning and made a Junction, first with the cavalry force of Caplnln Ravenna, which la scout ing ahead and Anally m-th the disabled troop train. The train .has not been mo lested since the Junction was effected, but the bridge over the Santa Clara river east ward from the train was blown un today, together with two smaller ones, prevent ing the use of the road beyond Harradura, Railroad Brldaea Wrecked. As the bridges westward near Puerta Onlpe also have been destroyed no trains can operate from Plnar del Rio, City In either direction. Both the railroad and the telegraph line continue In use to Paso Real. Tonight 216 men and four machine guns, commanded by Lieutenant Colonel Clews, atarted for Paso Real. The sending of this force was hastened by the false new of a disaster. Captain Ravenna, one lieutenant and four privates wounded, are the qnly casualties reported In the Consolaclon del Sur oper ations. - ..-.'. : There is aom alarm In Havana on ac count of the nearnes to the city of ev eral, hundred Insurgent belonging to the forces of Ashbert, Loynai and Castillo, some of whom are often Been in' the hill at Jesus del Monte, In the southern ex tremity of the city. Intimations' received 'from these bands are to the effect that they are merely awaiting the outcome of peace negotiations, practically all the In surgents In the province of Havana and Santa Clara hating ceased operations for the present In accordance with the tenta tive agreement with the peace commis sioners. The fourth week of the rebellion opens with the government forces better equipped and Improved In discipline, but enlistments are slow. President Palma's action In call ing a special session of congress Is meeting with some adverse criticism. Many per sons believe that no good purpose will be served by a discussion of the csuses pf the war and of pesce proposals fov the congreas. The 'veterans' peace committee continue hopeful of being able ' to persuade Pino Guerra to cease activities temporarily and possibly of inducing him to come to Havana and Join In the negotiations for peace, but the attitude of the leading - liberals con tinues to preclude hopes of an Immediate peace. At the veterans' meeting this after noon a resolution was formally adopted to use ' all peaceful meana to stop the war and If these failed the sufficient army be raised to crush If by g rce. Meanwhile Intervention by the United States I being discussed on all sides. Many Cubans who hitherto were not favorable to Intervention now believe that It will he the only meana of placing Cuba perma nently In Its rightful position. Reports received by the government say that 100 revolutionists were In the encounter near Consolaclon del Sur, but the reports are not considered authoritative. The fight Is reported to have already taken place. i Loyal Troops Oataamhered. PASO REAL. Sept. 9.

N'S RISE IS RAPID Vebraakan Will Oe to FhTippines with Knch Expected of Him. v FIRST STEr IN HOMi RULE NEXT YEAR Prcaldeat Desires Strong Maa la Control Who Will Not Make BlendersMany Offices la Few Years. (From a Staff Correspondent.) WASHINGTON. Sept. 9.-(SpecUl.)-From the beginning of the Spanish-American war to this September 1 not an extremely long time ago, but it Is sn extremely long, aa well as strenuous time to Charlra E. Ma goon, governor of the canal sone and United Statea minister to the Republic of Panama. In the eight years since the be ginning of the war with- Spain, Charles E. Magoon ha made possibly the most phenomenal record of any man In govern mental life. In tbat time he haa been a law clerk ef the war department connected with the bureau of Insular affairs; law ad viser to that bureau and the rlghthand man of the then assistant secretary of war, George D. Melklejohn. and still later gov ernor of the Panama canal one. United States minister of the Republic of Panama, member of the Isthmanlan Canal Commis sion and now slated to become vice gover nor general of the Philippines and governor general, to succeed General James F. 8mlth. Our history doe not contain a more rapid rise In departmental service than this history of Charles E. Msgoon of Ne braska, who, when he was a law -student, connected with the firm of O. P. Mason and C. D. Wheedon of Lincoln, wa looked upon as a good deal of a "trlfler," as our colored brother say. Magoon was usually seen about the street In the day time In terested In sport and everything that leads to an outdoor life. But at night time he wa not found. He was using the night hours for study and review and when As sistant Secretary Melklejohn brought Ma goon to Washington as law clerk to the Insular division of the war department, he knew the calibre of the man. The friends and associates of .Charles E. Magoon only knew him aa a "good fellow," naturally bright, but inclined to lastneas. Resnlts Prove His Worth. His raqfd promotion and hi achieve ments chow how far wrong the judgment were of Judge Magoon, who goes to the Philippine shortly In somewhat the same position occupied by Secretary Taft, when tm was governor general of the Philip pines. The Philippine question and our colonial policy la a matter of large moment to the constructive statesmanship of . this coun try. With ambitious Japan not far away and with China having under contempla tion a new form of government largely ministerial In character, the Philippine problem requires a trained mind for It solution; and it la frankly believed that Judge Magoon la the person best fitted to solve the questions of governmental conduct presented y the Filipinos. Next summer the Philippine general assembly will come Into existence. . Thl Is the first step -in the direction of horn rule In the Island and President Roosevelt Is anxious, that no blunder shall be com mitted. ...The lower house of the general assembly will be composed of native elected by popular vote, while the member of the Philippine commission practically will constitute the upper branch, or senate, 'with the reform that ar to be Inaugu rated, -carrying .with them more or less of change from the present methods, the president wishes a strong man who ha proved his executive ability where he can Institute these reforms without turning the conditions In the Islands topsy turvy. Owing to his Investigation of the Philip pine question while attached to the War department. Judge Magoon Is believed to be especially qualified to carry out the policies which the president desires, and having the confidence of both Secretaries Root and Taft, Charles E. Magoon goes to the Philippine on his herculean task. Intervention a duration of Time. While It is hoped In Waahlngton tbnt the Insurrectionary movement in Cuba may be peaceably adjusted In the near future, officials believe that the purchase of peace at this time Is exceedingly costly to the Palma government and It Is only a question of time when the United States will have to Intervene under the Piatt amendment. There is no denying the fact that the present government In Cuba is unsatisfac tory to a large proportion of the popula tion. The laat election and the manner In which It was conducted and the results announced have given umbrage to many natlvea, and in consequence peace will not be assured until another electlorf Is held. As a matter ottact there are In Wash ington today several men representing par ticular Intereats In Cuba who Insist that If peace Is made with the Insurgents, as now seem assured. It will be but a short time before another uprising against the dominant power occurs, and this will have to be put down with Ilk measures. The people In the Isle of Pines, many of whom went from the United States, are a unit In antagonising th Palma administration and It Is expected a powerful lobby will be in Washington next winter to defeat the Isle of Pines treaty, now pending in the senate, which glvea that fertile Island to Cuba entirely. Isle of Place a Factor. Herbert Janvrin Brown, formerly of the New York Journul, but of late years In terested lq the guana deposits ou the Isls of Pines and the small Islands adjacent thereto, 1 In Waahlngton for the purpose of Insisting that Americans who bought lands In the Isle of Pines In good faith under an edict of the War department thst the Isle of Pines was American terri tory should be protected In these rights and that the treaty between Cuba and he United States ceding the Isle of Pine to Cuba should not be ratified. It Is expected that large American Intereata. both In Cuba and In the Iale of Pines, will have rep resentatives In Waahlngton. thla winter tu labor with senators against the, Isle of Pine treaty.

Tex., Sept. 9. A special to the Hers Id from a staff correspondent sent to Douglas.

"In all the letters captured . there are. pleas for money, showing that they have no flnsnces and that they are a class of men who can never do anything serious. "There Is a feeling of unrest, I admit. In northwestern Mexico, Just ss there Is a feeling similar In the southwestern United States, and nobody knowa the cause. Per haps there Is some big corporation behind it all, but' thus far the so-called revolu tionists have no money and the Mexican government Is giving Irself no concern, ex cept to take such precautions as the United Statea or sny other country would." There will be no serious trouble. General Torres believes and the arrest of these men In Arlsona will end the matter en tirely. He speaks warmly of his gratitude as t well as thst of all Mexico for the prompt steps taken by the United State officials. It 1 believed, wires the Herald correspondent, that the trial of the alleged revolutionists at Douglas was postponed, pending the arxest of other members of the Junta at 8t. Louis.

Sept. 9.-Th republican . party. Its schlevements for hslf a oentury and particularly Its record In the present congress, Is commended to .the voter of the country In the campaign, text book given- out today by the republican con gressional commltte. The book contain 278 pages and Is replete with republics n doctrine, embracing practically every con ceivable subject upon which Information may be desired. Radicalism or conserva tism. It is declared, are never matters of concern to republicans, but It 1 ststed "they are content with practical and pro gressive Ideas and the maturing of those Ides Into positive performance." Every statement made snd all figures presented -are declared In the foreword of the book to be official and authoritative, and th foreword conclude: "The truth la the highest exemplification of republican doctrines and policies and party record. 1s the bet plea that can be made for continuation In power." In discussing the campaign Issue of 190ft, the book callsattentlnn to the fact that since the termlnstlon of the Fifty third congress in 1899, the house of repre sentatives has been republican and adds that "there ia every reason to expect that a aubstantlal working republican majority will be elected next November." During thoss ten years It la. stated "we have made a greater advance aa a nation and a people than was ever made before In a generation and In many respects greater than during our whole previous history. There canno then be the least doubt of republican suc cess If the voters study carefully the rec ord of the two psrtles. Warning to First Voter. "There will be thousands and hundreds of thousand," the book says, "who will vota for the first time. In November, who were mere children when the democrat , last had a majority In the house of repre sentatives and they do not all vividly re member the awful time brought 'on tha eountry by that congress. They were not born when the only democratic, president since the civil war waa first elected. They were babies hi arms when Grover Cleveland sent hi famous free trade message to congress and when a year after the Inl-' qultous Mills' bill was framed and passed by th democratic house of representative of the Fiftieth congress. But fortunately J there was a republican senate to prevent the enactment of the free trade law and disaster, and calamity was for the time averted. But In 1898 the democrats had the presidency as well as both senate and house of representatives and th work of that single Fifty-third congress cost, th Industries and people of th country many billions of dollar and incalcuabls suffer ing. These facts should be weighed with the record of the republican party before and since and especially should the record of the present congress be studied, for though its work Is not yet finished, more ha already been done In one session thsn by any previous congress since the war ol the rebellion." Only democratic success, it Is declared, can prevent the giving to the people ol the country new records in every phase ol our Industrial life. Doe to Republican Measures. The book then continues: "Republicans have a right to claim that our flnanclUl, commercial and industrial government Is due to th law enacted and secured by their party leaders. The party came Into power when the government and the people were practically bankrupt and . without credit. A disrupted union was re stored, the vast expense of war provided, specie payment . resumed, a protective ' tariff amended from time to time and the development of the country continued un- til the democratic check came In 1894. "But," It Is stated, "the people were quick to see their mlstske and at th first ' opportunity restored the republican party to full power and no party change ha been made since during a period of ten year." The industrial situation 1 claimed to be unaparalleled In the annate of nations. "Our volume of employment," th state ment continue, "our reward of labor, our enjoyment of life were never befor equaled, and, beat of all, there 1 no sign of abatement or signal of retraat. There is prospect of still greater and grander result and only the rankest pessimist can ' see a cloud on our national material hor laon." . Because of the various Ananclal and tariff measures of tke republican " party,, which the book aay a, have brought about competition In manufacturers, It Is de clared that a home market has been built up In this country, of such mngnltude that for several years we have given full em ployment at wegea about double those paid when the republican party eame Into power. In some cases these wages sr treble and quadruple what they were In 1800." gome Republican Legislation.
