"GEN. RIVERA ARRIVES

The Famous Cuban Leader Out of-

a Spanish PriSon.
WAS SENTENCED FOR LIFE

He “ins Much Grieved to Learn of the
Death of Garcia, Who Promoted Him
for Bravery. Set Free from a Spanish

Prison on Demand of This Country.

New York, Dec. 13.——General Juan
Rius Rivera. the famous Cuban lead—
er, was a passenger on the French line
steamer La Champagne, which arrived
yesterday. ‘

He has just been released from the
Spanish dungeons at Ceuta, through
the intervention of the American peace
commissioners.

In March, 1897, Rivera was ambush—
ed in Cuba, captured by the Spaniards,
sentenced to be shot, and afterwards
had his sentence commuted to life
imprisonment in Ceuta. His wife lives
at Chelry Valley, N. Y.

General Rivera is an.intrepid officer,
and was a terror to the Spaniards. It
was of him that General .Martinez
Campos said:

"He always wins, no matter what
the odds against him.”
He was born in Mayaguez,~ Porto

Rico, in 1850. He was 9a law student
at the University of Madrid when the
Cuban revolution broke out in 1868. He
left and joined the insurgents. His
daring soon brought him honors and
he became a lieutenant colonel in 1872.

In July, 1875, though badly wounded,
he continued to lead his men and rou—
ted the Spaniards at Los Azules. In
1877, with three hundred men, he at—
tacked a supply train convoyed by two
thousand Spaniards. His right hand
was shattered by a bullet, but with
a machete in his left he led his men
and captured the train.

He took the field in the late revolu—
tion and fought valiantly until, he-
trayed by spies, he and his chief of
staff and fifty men were ambushed by
two thousand Spaniards and General
Rivera was wounded and captured by
them. _

General Rivera heard of the loss of
General Garcia at Quarantine and was
deeply grieved to learn of the death
of the Cuban hero. Rivera had a
strong regard for General Garcia, but
they had not met for the last eighteen
years.

Among the other passengers by the
La Champagne were John Preston
Beecher, Jose Fernandez Castro, Com~
tesse Spottiswood Mackinn and Mon-
signor 'I‘ikhon.

Three New Naval Vessels.

Manila, Dec. 13,—The former Spanish
cruiser Isla de Cuba, which was sunk
by Admiral Dewey and recently rais-
ed, started for Hong Kong yesterday
morning to be fitted out, proceeding
under her own name.

She passed Admiral Dewey’s flagship
which was anchored off Cav-ite, going
at the rate of twelve knots.

The Isla de Luzon made a trial trip
across the bay in the afternoon which
was very satisfactory. She will be
ready to go to Hong Kong on Satur-
day.

The third of the recoveied Spanish
vessels, the Don Juan de Austria, will
soon follow the others to Hong Kong.

 

Steele Found Guilty.

Philadelphia, Pa., Dec. 13.—W’illiam
Steele, who was cashier of the collaps-
ed Chestnut Street National Bank, was
found guilty yesterday by a jury in
the United States district court. The
jury was out half an hour.

Steele was charged with aiding and
abetting the late William M. Singerly,
president of the bank, in misapplying
the funds of the institution, making
false entries in the books of the bank,
and false reports to the comptroller
of the currency.

IVIany Callers at the White House.

Washington, D. 0., Dec. 13.—There
was a rush of official visitors to the
White House yesterday in anticipation
of the president’s absence from VVash-
ington.

Bishop Hurst of the Methodist Epis-
copal church, accompanied by a dele-
gation of clergymen visiting Washing-
ton, was received by the president.

Other visitors were Senators Lodge,
Burrows, Proctor, McBride and Si-
mon.

 

Norway’s Break with Sweden.
Stockholm, Dec. 13.——The Dagens
Nyheter says that at a meeting of the
Norwegian cabinet ’it was resolved to
ask the king to sign a decree legaliz~
ing the decision of the Storthing estab-

lishing a separate Norwegian flag.
It was also resolved that the foreign
ce inform the consuls abroad of the
operation of the law. The paper adds
that if the king does not accede to

this request the ministers will resign.

Hobson Escaped.
Birmingham, Ala.., Dec. 13.—A report
has reached here that the Southern
railway train between Akron and
Greensboro, Alabama, was wrecked,
and that a number of the passengers
were hurt.
Among the passengers was Naval
Constructor Hobson. The report says
that Hobson escaped injury.

The Bite of a Hippopotamus.

New York, Dec. 13,—Patrick Marrin,
keeper of the Central Park menagerle,
is'suffering from a. badly lacerated
right hand, bitten by one of the hip-
popotami of which he has charge. He
is having the hand treated in the Pres-
byterian Hospital and blo’od poisoning
ls feared.

Gen. Castellanos Hurt.
Havana, Dec. 13.-—While Captain
General Castellanos was in his bed
room Sunday evening the ceiling fell
in and wounded him on both shoulders
and breast and face. His orderly was
also wounded in the face.

Anti-Anarchist Conference.

London, Dec. 13. —A Central News
dispatch from Rome says that the
final meeting of the international antl-

, Anarchist conference will be held on

December 20.

 

WILL RETURN TO SPAIN.

\

“'ourlfurd to
lIIndrIcl.

Washington, D. (3., Dec. 13.—-The pre-
sident is prepared to resume diplomat-
ic relations with Spain the moment thl=
Madrid government accredits a repre-
sentative to this country.

General Stewart L. Woodford will
resume his post as the American min-
ister, in accordance with an intima-
tion already delicately conveyed
through members of the Spanish peace
commission to the American commis—
sioners that the general would be no-
tably persona grata to the queen as
well as to the people—perhaps more so
than any other American. In fact the
assurances are unmistakable that the
minister would receive an ovation in
Madrid.

General fifoodford has arranged his
personal affairs so as to be at the
president’s disposal, without delay,
when his rm to Europe is required.
The officials of the state depaitmen:
have no idea when the formal sugges~
tion will come from Spain, although, in
View of the pressing matters which
had to be omitted from the peace tren-
ty, such "as revival of former commer-
cial and extradition conventions, it is
thought Spain will act as early as she
can with dignity, as the loss is wholly
hers in the present unsettled state.

It is the prevailing Opinion that Sa-
gasta will not -wait until the peace
treaty is formally ratified by the Sen—
ate ,and the Cortes, but will act
promptly as soon as it beCUmes evi-
dent that l1-is ministry, will not be
overturned. This can be learned in the
course of another week.

It will be rather difficult for the
Spaniards to select a. minister accept—
able to the United States, unless one
of the peace commissioners is desig-
nated.

The administration hopes that, in
View of the great importance of the
coming negotiations, a prominent man
may come, and that Spain will rank
him as an ambassador.

OUR TROOPS IN' HAVANA.

 

March of the Two Hundred and Second
New York Through the Streets.

Havana, Dec. 13.——The Two Hundred
and Second New York regiment began
to land at six o’clock yesterday morn—
ing and at ten o’clock a column of
1,000 strong started to march from the
San J05e wharf to the Christina rail-
road station.

The troops were led by Colonel Sey-
burn and Me 301' Abbot. the 1egimental
band playing simple, marching airs
The 00101 seigeants bore the stars and
stripes and the blue and gold bannei
of the state of New York.

The Ioutc, which was a mile and a
half long. was the most direct course
from the landing place to the railroad
station, and did not pass through the,
principal streets. There were only the
ordinary numbers of people in the
streets, and it was only occasionally
that cries of “Vive Espana!" “Vivc
Americanosi” or “Vive Cuba Libre!"
were heard. The onlookers were most—
ly silent, and were merely curious to
see the American soldiers.

The regiment arrived at the railroad
station at 10.30 a. m., and after some
delay 'two trains loaded with troops
pulled out. Some of the troops belong-
ing to this detachment are bound for
the city of Pinar del Rio, about 118
miles from here. The others will be
stationed at Guanajay and Mariel, not
far from here, in the province of Pinar
del Rio.

 

)Iore Mo ncy for 01 damn-c

ed estimates for deficiencies under the
ordnance department, aggregating one.
million dollars, have been submitted to
Congress

The exchange of the arms of all, or
newly a11,of the volunteer troops to

tho necessity for a much larger supply
of ammunition of that size says the
chic-f of ordnance, together with pro—
visions for more extensive depots in
Cuba.

Secretary Alger also submitted an
estimate of three million dollars for
contingencies in the war department.

)lagowan Did Not Appear.

Cleveland, 0., Dec. 13.—Frank Ma-
g0\\’:1n and his wife did not appear in

gued at length.

Capt. I’m‘dy Found Guilty.

London, Dec. 13,—Captain- Purdy,
who was arrested a month ago charg—
ed with criminally lribelling the own-
ers of the recently wrecked steamship
Mohegan, in having written a letter

ing that the Mohegan had been “put
away” in accordance with the orders

Counterfeit Silver Dollars.

Memphis, Tenn., Dec. 13,—Counter—

feiters are at work in the Mississippi
valley on standard silver dollars of the
date of 1890. It is believed that about
two hundred thousand of them have

the same weight and the same exter-
nal marks as the genuine.

Rebellious Students Won.

Buffalo, Dec. 13.—The students of the
senior dental class of the University
of Buffalo who rebelled a few days ago

REGULARS FOR MANILA.

 

Six Regiments to Go to the Phlllpp m.
to Relieve Volunteers.

Washington, D. C., Dec.‘1&—-An order
will be issued by the war department
to-day directing the movement of six
regiments of regular infantry to Ms.—
nila for service in the Philippines.

These troops will relieve an equal
number of volunteer regiments now on
duty at Manila.

A draft of the order for the move-
ment was completed by the adjutant
general yesterday and it will. be' sub-
mitted to the president forapproval
by Secretary Alger before they leave
Washing ton/for Atlanta to- day.

The order in its present state pro-
v des that the regiments to compose
n expeditl on shall be the Third,- now
at Fort Snelling, Minn.; Fourth, at
Fort Sheridan, 111.; Sixth, at Fort Sam
Houston, Texas; Twelfth, at Jefferson
Barracks. Missouri; Seventeenth, at
Columbus Barracks, and Twentieth, at
Fort Leavenworth.

There will probably be no change in

the assignment, although another reg-

iment be substituted for the
Sixth.

The Twenty-fourth infantry, one of
the four negro regiments of the regu-
lar service, will, according to present
indications, take the place of the Sixth
if the change is decided on. The com—
panies of the Twenty—fourth are dis-
tributed between Fort Douglas, Utah.
Fort D. A. Russell, Wyoming, and
Camp Pilot Butte, Wyoming. The
‘movement from the United States will
begin as soon as transports can be
secured.

The department will send two of the
regiments by the Mediterranean Suez
route if the model transport Mobile,
now at Savannah, proves a, satisfac-
tory ship on her trip to Havana.

The Mobile and another steamship
similarly converted will be used in that
event.
ed to hold themselves in readiness for
service in the Philippines, but the war
department has little hope of securing
transportation for them until late. in
the spring.

The first contingent will hardly get
away from this country before some
'time in January, and the volunteers
to be relieved by them will probably
not start for home until March.
