Blanco is Faced With a'Situ

STRIKD 01 IN HAVANA
Among the Workmen in the Arsenal
—Blanco’s Demand on a Bank*
k er Complied With.
By Associated Frees.
Havana,via Key West, Oct. O.Six hun
dred men, machinists, blacksmiths, skilled
workmen and laborers, have gone on a
♦strike at the Havana arsenal, refusing to
work unless they are paid five months ar
rears of wages. The strike began on Mon
day and no settlement has yet been made.
The Spanish cruiser Conde de Venadite,
gunboat Galicia and the torpedo boat
Neuva Espana are an the stocks at the
navy yard undergoing elaborate repairs,
preparatory to their trip to Spain. The
arsenal strike is liable to delay the evacu
ation so far as the navy is concerned un
less the differences are soon settled, as the
vessels in their present condition are quite
■unequal to a sea voyage at this time of the
year.
The Spanish authorities continue to de
clare their inability to entirely evacute
the island before the end of February. The
Washington government, through the
American cominhoioners, continues to in
sist upon prompt evacuation. The 1 Span
iards say also as a reason for delay that
in addition to a lack of vessels a large
proportion of their soldiers are too weak
and ill to undertake the voyage at the
winter season.
Gen Bianco is beset on all sides with
grave problems requiring a cash solution.
Unfortunatelyy the 'Madrid government is
unprepared to meet them and the captain
general is thus placed in a very delicate
position. On the one hand is the navev
yard strike, on the other are the troops,
clamoring for back pay. Last week Gen.
Blanco issued orders disbanding all the
pro-, sional regiments in certain places, as.
for instance at 'Sancti Spiritus. The
troops refused to disband first unless they
received their arrears of pay. Many of
them went over to the 'Cuban ranks.
A trip to Cienfuegos of Gen Selano, Gen.
Blanco’s chief of staff, is understood to be
due to the seriousness of the situation.
Exactly what reasons rendered the meas
necessary have not been developed, but
Gen. Blanco revoked the disbanding order.
s‘t has leaked out that in his extremity
Gen Blanco summoned the governor of the
Banco Espanol and called upon him for
an advance of money. The Banco official
at first refused, but finally yielded to
Blanco’s appeal, and agreed to advance
5200.000. is weakness is seriously con
demned. many of the depositors threaten
ing to withdraw their deposits.
The commercial condition of the island,
instead of improving, seems to be at a
complete standstill. The undisguised cor
ruption in every branch of the adminis
tration fills all minds with distrust. There
are other ominous clouds on the horizen
that indicate early trouble with the Cu
bans. who are openly proclaiming their
readiness to fight to the last drop of
blood for absolute independence. Promi
nent chiefs in the insurgent army ’have in
dicated their intention as soon as *h«»
forthcoming elections are over to come to
Havana and work strenously in behalf of
independence. In this they are supported
by the laboring classes or pa.eificos not
•identified with the last uprising, three
fifths of whom it may be safely estimated
profess their intention of joining 'he in
surgent ranks in the struggle for inde
pendence and to fight the Americans if the
latter in any wav oppose absolute free
dom for the island.
Deafness Cm Tie Cured.
by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure deafness and that
is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an inflamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube is inflamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed deafness is the
result and unless the infiamation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will be de
stroyed forever: nine cases out of ten are
caused by catarrh, which is nothing but
an inflamed condition of the mucous sur
faces.
We will give one hundred dollars for any
case of deafness( caused by catarrh) that
cannot be cured by Hall’s Catarrh Cure.
