Special Cable—Copyright. Havana, Aug, 24.—Quanta, a town of about 1,000 Inhabitants, about 30 mllea southwest of Pinar del Rio, will be the next point of attack by Pino Guent the rebel leader In the west, according to news reaching here today. This Is taken to mean that Guerra has postponed his attack on Pinar del Rfn until the country to the west Is fully In his possession, and It may also mean that he Is awaiting the arrival of arms and ammunition for his men. By Private Leased Wire. Havana, Cuba, Aug. 24.—American troops soon may be on Cuban soil again. Already President Palma has sent to the United States for machine guns and men to operate them. While these guns and American gunners ore not from the Uifited States government, the Impression Is strong here that If the revolutionary movement continues tu gain strength as It has gained dur ing the past few days the government cannot give adequate protection to American and other foreign property, and will be either cotnpelled to call for Intervention under the Platt amend ment. or the United States govern ment will be compelled to act without being asked. The threat of Guerra to the Western railroad that in case mors troops and munitions are sent to reinforce the government troops In Pinar del Rio he will , blow up bridges and destroy railroad property regardless of Inter national complications. Is significant. Battle l> Reported. The situation In Pinar del Rio Is critical, and the fate of the revolution may be settled there within a few hours. In fact, one report has It that the battle which may mean defeat or victory for one elde or the other al ready Is In progress. These reports say that government trootis under ColonsI Eatrainpes and the rebels were engaged all night In battle at Guinea, forty-flve miles from llavann. Iaitc dispatches say two lieu tenants and a number of government soldiers had been wounded, but no further details of losses have been re ceived. To Attaek Pinar del Rio, In regard to the strength of Guer ra's forces, reports vary. In some quarters It Is said to be between 4,000 and 5,000 men. This hi probably exag gerated. It Is known that he has taken San Juan de Martlnex and Is gather ing his forces- for an attack on the city of Pinar del Rio. One special correspondent who has lust come from Pinar del Rio says Pino Ouerra, wlth'5,000 men, Is waiting for the arrival of more troops before at tacking the city. Two thousand more rebels are marching to Join him and "hen they arrive the attack on Pinar del Rio will be made from all sides. In Possesion of Town. (tuerra Is In full possession of San Jnun de Martlnex. He permitted 30 rural guards to march out of the town. The government has rushed more troops to the defense of Pinar del Rio In addition to artillery, and It was ex pected to have 900 there today. A de cisive battle Is expected. Senator Morna Campos Marquetl ha- Joined the revolutionists and It I- believed more prominent men soon "III espouse the rebellion. Killing Had Bad Effect. The death of Quentin Bandera does not seem to have had the effect the government hoped. It enraged the ne groes, whose Idol Bandera was, and >hej- are said to be flocking to rebel standards In great numbers. The ef- of the news In Santiago, where Bandera was particularly popular.

Oyster Bay, Aug. 24.—President Roosevelt authorized the announce ment today that the reform In spelling recommended by the committee which Andrew Carnegie created, will here after be,adopted in all departmental correspondence and official documents. To put It briefly Uncle Sam Is "thru" with "through”' and the spelling of all other words which gives the He direct to their pronunciation. From now on the literature put out by the govern mental departments will look to ths uninitiated like little Willie's first com position or a page from the works of ths late lamented Josh Billings. Orders have been sent to the public printer in Washington to secure ths list of 100 most used words that ths Carnegie spelling reform committee suggests be changed and from now on all the public documents that are Is sued by the largest prlntshop In ths world will follow the "style" of the committee Ideas. The public printer will furnish copies of the word Hat to every department and buro of the gov ernment service and If any of the stenografers aijd secretaries of these ofllsea were ever Inclined to make fun of "spelling reform," all the humor In the Idea will soon vanish as they buckle down to the work of unlearning Eng lish as she Is written.

New Orleans, La., Aug. 24.—Trouble has broken out at Ten Mile, in the northern portion of Calcasieu parish, between a race of people known as ths Red Bones" on one side and whites and negroes on the other side. The difficulty occurred at a railroad camp of the Santa Fe railroad, twenty miles west of Oakville, In a sparsely settled country. There were, as far as known, thirteen people shot, of whom two are dead. 8lx are mortally wounded and five less seriously. Three ot the killed and wounded are negroes and ' ten whiles. The trouble was precipitated by the "Red Bones,” who are the remnants of the ancient Indian tribe, so mixed with negro blood that they are almost half negroes and half Indians. They refuse to be classed as negroes or to be treated as such, and hate the ne groes. On several occasions they have claimed that they were Indians and for that reason entitled to be on socially equal terms with the whites. The "Red Bones,” angered by the railroad pressing on through their country, attacked the whites and ne groes employed by the Grigsby Con struction Company grading the rail road between Stabtown and Oakdale. They fired Into a tent In which thir teen of the railroad laborers were housed, killing or wounding all the In mates, Including a negro woman. The sheriff has started with several depu ties after the murderous "Red Bones."

D. C., August 24.—Pres ident Samuel Gompers, of the Ameri can Federation of Labor and editor of the American Federatlonlst, the ofll- clal organ of the organisation, in the September Issue, says: "There Is keen and bitter disappoint ment that congress utterly failed to consider labor rights and accord the redress so essential to Its welfare. Yet this very congressional Indifference and hostility has Its advantages, for It has taught the wage earners of every country more effectually than any number of warnings and urglngs from their leaders, that If they hope to ob tain their rights and the redress to which they are so Justly entitled they will be compelled to show their teeth to their political, as well as their eco nomic opponents.” Except for s personal difficulty be tween Dr. J. H. Goss and G. T. Kinley, a street car conductor, about 2 o'clock Friday afternoon, Decatur has seldom been more serene than Friday after* noon. Reports of a mob marching on the jail or of infuriated citizens, armed to the tooth, marching before the jail were without basis of fact. Early Friday morning there was a bunch of perhaps fifty men idling around the public square, being drawn by report that the assailant of the Mieses Lawrence had been captured. They were informed that the suspected negro had been taken to Atlanta and then dispersed slowly, although some remained. Tho trouble between Dr. Goes and Kinley drew a large crowd and pos- aibly gave rise to the rumors.. Kinley had said that the supposed mob after negro near Scottdale was no better than the negro himself. Dr. Goss then knocked the conductor down. There ware rumors early in the aft ernoon that a negro was being chased near Poplar Springs, but nothing has since been hoard of it. Rumors are frequent that there it a mob marching on to Decatur to storm tha jail. Assistant Adjutant General Scott Fri day afternoon called up the mayor of Decatur and asked if any assistance were needed, offering to call out troops if necessary. The mayor replied that there was no trouble in sight. With rumors of all aorta (lying all over tho city, all the eastern part of Atlanta has been In a constant state of agitation since Thursday morning and a mob of about 1,500 people gathered near the Lawrence home In Copenhll! Thruaday night. Some were drawn by desire to avonge the attack on the two MtMB'ea Lawrence by a negro, the rest came through morbid curiosity. Although these rumors as to the cap ture of the assailant of the women were numerous, they were lacking wholly In substance. Extra editions of newspa- pern served to Incite the people of the city and to add to the excitement. Friday morning the rumors, contin ued. The only developments In the case, however, -were these: A negro, who says his name Is Wilt Davla, was caught on a train In Tucker, Ga., late Thursday afternoon, and wan safely landed In the tower at 10 o'clock Friday morning. Doesn't Fit Dsscription. Davie la no way fits the description given by Mabel Lawrence, and gives a good account of his movementa for the past* week. Davie states that he was in Bushland, N. O., on Monday, and that from there he went to Blue Ridge. From Blue Ridge he says he caught the train to Marietta. The negro was somewhat frightened by his rapid transit from the mountain to the stuffy atmosphere of the Jail, but showed no signs of ner vousness. Hla home, ho says. Is In Athens, Go. Davis says he enent last night in the home of some white man, securely handcuffed and watched. He was brought to Atlanta by Superintendent Holbrook of the DeKalb county chain- gang, on the South Decatur car line. Another negro wae arrested Friday morning by Sheriff Reagan, of DeKalb county. He la In the DeKalb county Jail, and It la thought he In not the one wanted. A crowd gathered near the lall, but there was no attempt at vlo- ence. Had any negro been Identified by Miss Mabel Lawrence, Thursday aft ernoon or night, as the one who as saulted her anti Miss Ethel Lawrence, her aunt, his life would rot have been worth the proverbial "two cents."
