According to advices received here from Havana the government does not allow news of the burning of plantations, to be pub- lished, but it is stated on reliable authority that if the government allowed the grind- ing of cane in Havana province the plan. tors would not be able to make 10,000 hogs- heads of sugar, because, from eight miles out of Havana as far as Matanzas, nearly all the sugar cane has been burned General Woyler asserts that theve only 600 insurgents in the provinee of Pinar del Rio, but the Cubans say that ho will shortly repent having made such a statoment. There is no doubt that the in- surgents have suffered greatly from sick- ness and other causes, but it is claimed that should the Spanish commander only partly withdraw his troops from the west- ern part of Pinar del Rio the insurgests will again concentrate in large bodies, having only scattered into small groups for the present in order to escape the over- whkelmingly large force sent against them Only a few weeks ago the captain gen- eral admitted that were still 8,000 men under arms against the government in Pinar del Rio.
