CUBANS ARE LENIENT t \ Few Come Forward For Their Pay. OPPOSITION BEING BROKEN Bandits Intimidate Would-Be De serters—Army Rolls Are Defective. A special from Havana states that Monday's events in connection with the payment of the Cuban troops en titled to apply in that city for a share in the American gratuity have effec tively killed off the opposition to the receipt of the bounty by privates. In American military circles it is consid ered that a fine start has been made and that the opposition is defeated. Three hundred privates arrived dur ing the day to apply for payment, but though Lieutenant Colonel George H. Randall, of the Eighth United States infantry, the commissioner superin tending the distribution, kept his office open from 10 a. m. to 5 p. m., only 112 could be paid during that in terval, as each man took up several minutes. Many who brought arms were not ou the rolls at all. Ninety-nine rifles were surrendered, most of the appli cants declining to take any chances in turning the weapons over to the may or of Havana, evidently believing it would be better to give them direct to the Americans, All day it was virtually impossible to get through the front door of the office unless the sentry cleared the way. The Cuban officers, who on the first day tried to discourage any who were disposed to apply, finding now that the tide of feeling has turned, are offering all the assistance possible to Colonel Randall. At tlTe conclusion of the day’s work there were more than 200 who had not been heard. These will have to wait until after the return of the pay car on June 15th, when there will *probably be extra days as signed to Havana. One thousands posters were sent Monday afternoon into the province of Pinar del Rio to announce the places and dates of payment. General Pedro Delgado, command ing the Cuban forces around Guana jay, called his men together Monday, told them they were disbanded and ore ered them to take their arms and go home. Of the 200 some thirty who were mounted on ponies, said they would rule to Havana and get their money. Thereupon Delgado, who was formerly a notorious bandit, called upon the rest to draw up in line and to shoot any man who took the road to Havana. The thirty mounted men gloomily dis persed. They will have an opportu nity to receive their shares later. It is said that most of the Cubans who, though having arms, did not figure in the muster rolls when they applied for payment, were furnished with the weapons by friends at Guanabacoa, where many arms had been stored with keepers of grocery shops by people who had purchased them from the Spanish guerrillas and volunteers. These were given out to enable the holders to secure shares in the Ameri can gratuity. Some Cubans, un doubtedly entitled to payment, have aiso obtained arms from the same source and are thus able to retain the weapons that they used during the war. the disbanding of tbe troops con tinues. Twelve hundred men, under tne command of General Jacinto Her nandez, who were encamped at San _ °® e de las Lajas, about twenly-one miles from Havana, have been niuster e<j ol d- I’liey were given certificates m service redeemable under the first u >an government. Some of these men were in the Cuban service three . ln< a \ la ‘f years. One party of eighty, ‘'mg in Santa Clara, started imme nsely for their homes. The horses many have died with disease or been med off, and consequently most of , e me n go homo by trains, which give them free passes. DEWEY WILL LINGER. Admiral Will Not Reach New York Before October. Admiral Dewey telegraphs the navy department that he will stop at various places on his way to the United States, and will reach New York about Octo ber Ist. The dispatches did not enu merate the points where the Olympia touch en route to New York. It toa y be that an effort will be made to these for the benefit of the officials of seme of the towns, espec la v along the Mediterranean, who desire to take official notice of the to their ports of the distinguished ‘ j aval officer and his famous flagship. i etter, Sait-Rhdum and Eczema Ihe intense itcliiug and smarting incident to these diseases, U instantly allayed by applying Chamberlain’s Eye and Skin Ointment.

Commissioners Are Escorted Back To Rebel Lines Under Truce Flag. The Filipino commissioners left Ma nila Thursday by special train aud were escorted to their lines under a flag of truce. It is expected that they will return soon. President Gonzaga, of the Philip pine commission, said: “We greatly appreciate the courtesy shown us. We have spent some time with your commissioners, incidentally considering the American constitution. Its principles impress us profoundly. “The plan of government offered the Philippines seems in theory a good colonial system. But why should a nation with your constitution seek to make a colony of a distant people who have been so long fighting against Spain to secure the same rights your constitution gives? You fought the same battle iu America when you fought against England.” CUBAN OIL curaa 1 v Cuts, Burns, Bruises, Rheu matism and Sores. Price, 25 cents. G. W.
