Insurgents Retreat to Imus. p ., the OFFICERS SHOT AT. A Cuban Fires Upon Them From Amx ' bush—Advice to Americans. . HAVANA, June 15. ——Colonel Black, Major Kane, General Lees chief sur- Neon, and Captain Stafi’or'd of the Sev- enth cavalry went to Playa de Marianao, , about six miles from Havana. Major Kane and Captain Stafford, who were riding in an ambulance, left Colonel Black and drove on along a lonely road, protected 011 each side by heavy under- brush. Suddenly they heard the report of a gun, and a bullet whistlod close to them. Quickly getting down from the vehicle, they saw a Cuban kneeling in the roadway about 100 yards oflr'. Aim- ing his rifle at them apparently, he fired again, the bullet passing over their heads. The officers were unarmed, but they swore roundly at the Cuban, who disapv pearcd into the brush. The general be- lief is that the affair was not serious, and the officers themselves treat it as a joke. They say that otherwise it would have been impossible to miss them at such a short range. They add, however, that if they had been armed themselves there would probably have been a Cuban fu- ner'al. The English edition of -La Lucha edii tori-ally advises the Americans to study the Cubans and to learn the natures of the people they are trying to teach. It says. “There are t‘Ivo classes of Cubans, the. conservatives and the ‘shouters.’ The former are accustomed to guard their speech. They nrust learn the art of exé pressing ‘their opinions freely, which will be valuable to the Americans in helping . them reconstruct the country. The other type is made of the men who called Spain’s attention to themselves and got sent an av in order to be saved from go- ing to the field. “The v'ery first lesson .for' the Ameri- cans is to discriminate between the two, to discover sorrre practical plan for get- ting. the benefit of the views and friend- ship of conservative Cubans and to find some method of restraining the ‘shout- ers’ and making them good citizens by giving them a new channel for their thoughts and furnishing them an object 11pon'"‘which to expend their surplus en? ergy.” .Mazet Committee Still at Work. NEXV YORK, June l5.—The Mazet in- vestigating committee held but one ses- sion yesterday, and that was productive of but little of importance. Comptroller Bird S. Coler was the nrain witness ex- amined, and he was called to explain the refusal to approve the issue of city bonds by the municipal assembly. Mr. Coler gave it as his opinion that the is- suance of these bonds was a matter of necessity to the city’s public works, and if their issuance was not soon approved all the contemplated improvements would have to be abandoned. The comptroller did not hesitate to make vigorous criti— cisms of the municipal assembly and de- clared that the legislature should curb the powers of that body. The tax de— partment was again under investigation, but nothing of particular weight devel- oped. vestigated today. Franklin Statue Unveiled. PHILADELPHIA, June 15.—The statue of Benjamin Franklin presented to the city by Justus C. Str'awbridge was unveiled at 6 o’clock last evening with appropriate ceremonies.
