Intormntion JCccclvcd by Tho Sun.
From tho Sun.
Matnnzas, Cuba, Feb. 15. The Sun's
correspondent in Santa Clara province
writes from the headquarters of tho
Insurgent mnjor general, Fra'nclsco
Cnrtlllo, at the estate Lns Ollvns, a
thrllllns story ot Cuban heroism nnd
Spanish barbarity. A signed statement
by General Cnrrillo Is enclosed with the
leport for publication In the Sun. It Is
us follows:

port, and I wish the wholo world to
know It, that aenernl Blanco is as
much a bloodthirsty assassin as Hen

ence thut the latter publicl avowed
his oilmen nd feared not to appear
before public opinion In tho full light

Ulanco murders In the dark and weors
an air ot Innocence before the public.
Illimco'o favorite expedients for con
lU'ilnpr the Cubans ore bribery anJ

them olllcex and iuoiic , on the other
he glxts secret orders to his columns
to ruthlessly nsnhtlnate tno country
people while he publishes humane de

Lis Olhas, Feb 12, 1S0S
The facts refeired to by the Sun's
coneppondent are ns follows On Feb
1 Cieiiei il Cairlllo iccelved lnfoimntlon,
that near Cnun!o and also near the
Spanish fort nt Nuovas do Jobosi, two
Spanish columns were nia"acrlpg the
paclflcos and committing awful 'bar
barities Immediately niter lecelvlng1
this import General Canlllo ordered
Lieutenant Colonel Qulntln Rr.ivo to
niiproach Caunao with n force of 130
men, open flio on the Spaniards and
try to rescue their Ictlms. Llruten-ant-Cnlonel
Hravo early In Jnnuarj' had
won a great lctorj near the estate
Sin Augustln, capturing a larse eoh
nj', for which action General Car
rlllo hid ieiuested Geneial Gomez to
promote him
cuuans iiivrinn.
On the morning of Feb. 10 Brnvo and
his men dashed upon tho Spanlaids,
who retired to the fort bf Nuevas do
Jobosi, cnirjlng with them some of
their victims. Captain Qulncoces, with'
llfty Cubans, opened lire en the fort
anl the Spaninids answeicu with can
non shots and bomb hhells, w hlch com
pelled the Cubans to retire
Hut Qulncoces found In th Held, left
by the Spaniards In their flight, the
tort u tod bodies nnd burned remains of
the lcllms alieady killed, and tho Cu
ban soldier Rafael Infante, who was
made prisone. by the Spaniards about
l months ago Infante was dying,
with severe wounds Indicted by the
machete all over his body. He was
e.urled by Biavo to General Can lllo's
camp and there he told tho awful stoiy
of Spanish cruelties suffered by him
elf nnd other hapless Cubans. He
lived onU four hours and was burled
bv the Cubans a quatter of a milt
fiiiip the camp.
Intante said that when he was made
piisonei he was locked tin In the foit,
and toitured to compel him to guide
the Spinlaids tn th camp of General
Carrlll i at midnight and sinpilse him.
As he refued, he was depiUed for a
Ion; time of food and water. After
thot he was beaten like a dog eveiy
da j.
On Feb. 10 he was cm i led out of the
foit to be executed with many paclflcos,
who had been caught In the nelghboi
hood by the Spaninids. Ho leniembeis
among them rioientlno nnd Jesus
Aioyco, brothers, one 70 and tho other
SO j ears of ..ge They were tied to a
tiee and burned nlle Juan Arozco, a
mi a of Florentlno, who was captured
while HI of fer in a hut a half mile
fiom the foit, was beheaded, Ramon
Pei eli a was also binned alle.
Pedio Hernandez, a farmrr and a na
tive of 11. e Canaiy Islands, bad both
his aims cut off rnd then he was be
liPidtd, Other tortmes Inflicted on the
poor pilsoneis cannot be described.
Infante was being put to death with
machete ilows when the Cubans ap
pioached. Then he was abandonel,
but l other prisoners, who had been
tied up to await their fate, were car
i led Into the fort again The horrors
l tb" Spanish Inquisition, adds tho
conespondent.nre not comparable with
thifce atrocities.
Iliavo and Qulncoces burled the re
mains of the victims some distance
Horn thi foit and planted a cioss over
them with this inscilptloiv
"They are testing forever from the
untitles of Spain."
DANGEROUS MAGAZINES.

York, P,i Teh 20. Tho thirtieth" an
nual convontlon ot the Pennsylvania
Htato Young Men's Christian associa
tion" closed tonight with farewell ex
el cites In Christ Lutheran chapel.
Among the resolutions adopted before
this evening's adjournment were the
following:
- Itesolvod, That In view of the marked
nnd Inn easing tendency observed In tho
magazines used In most association read
ing rooms, to Introduce Illustrations in
the reading and advertising matter, like
ly to bo harmful to joung men at tho
most susceptible peilod In their lives.
Resolved, Thut the stato convention of
tho Young Men's Chtlstlan nbuoclutlon or
' Pennsylvania hereby petition the Inter
nutlouul committee to take this mutter up
and secure, If possible, a united protest
from tho association of North America,
and then bring the very proper influence
to bear upon the magazine publishers to
correct this pernicious feature.
Itenolvod, That In view of the recent
dreadful calamity in the hnrbor of Huv
uOlI by which two, hundred and llfty
lurtj? men of ;t(ip'ntota and nation, while
serving; their country on board tho bat
tleship Maine, have without a moment's
warning been cut off In tho strength of
their early manhood, we are moved to
profound sorrow nnd do resolvo that this
organization, whoso work Is by nnd for
young men, feels It to bo Its duty In this
hour of tho nation's unspeakable loss,
to gtvo expression to Its sympathy for
tho stricken families of tho lamented
dead.
CIVICS REFORM LEAGUE.
Orgnnl7ntlan lor Nortlmnstorn Penn
sylvania Formed in lll.os-llnrrc.
Tho Civics Reform ienguo of North
eastern Pennsylvania vvaB organized In
Wllkes-Barrp Saturday afternoon bv
Hov. Wilbur F. Crafts, of Washington,
D. C. Representatives were pio3ent
from Luzerne and Lackawanna coun
ties. The meeting was held in the
Young Men's Christian association
building. Many of those intrcsted In
the welfare of tho new organization
wcro prominent In tho work of the
American Sabbath union, ot which Rev.
F. A. Don j', of this city, was the sec
retary nnd pilme mover.
Local branches of the Reform league
wore effected In Plttston and Scranton
sometime ngo by Dr. Crafts who ad
dressed Saturday's meeting in "Wllkes
Barre nnd secured tho adoption of the
same constitution established in other
places by tho Reform league. Its offi
cers are: President, J. Welles Ilollen
back, of WIlkes-Barro, first vice pres
ident, C W. Cool, of West Plttston:
ccond vice piesldent, Mr. Major, ot
Carbondale; third vice piesldent, Mrs.
C. 1). Simpson, of Scranton, treasurer,
J, D. Stclle, of Scranton; field secre
tary, Robert Wilson.
It is proposed to hold monthly meet
ings In Scranton, Wllkes-Barre, Car
bondale and Pittston.at which address
es will be delivered according to a pie
scilbed programme. Branch oiganlza
tlcns are to be affected by the Held
secretary In the smaller towns Tho
league will support the secretary In
his steps asnlnst the police, constabu
lary or other officials for dereliction ot
duty
ANOTHER TRIAL ASKED.
Olchcfslu Attorneys Allege That the
Court .Undo Errors.
The qulto general suspicion that Ol
c hofski Is not very fnr away w as helgh
ened Saturday by his attorneys making
application for a now trial. If he was
safely out of the country nnd fairly
assuicd of tho authorities being unablo
to ovitako him, it is not likely that
he would spend more money In a new
trial
Among the reasons advanced for a
new trial aie allegations that the court
erred In admitting certain evidence,
particularly as to what Mrs. Olchefskl
said In tho absence of the defendant,
and In charging the Juu as follows:
"But the fact that It was Insured, the
man was heavily In debt, you maj take
In considerations In your deliberations
on this case. Insurance companies re
cognize loth these clicumstancts as
elements of whit they know of a
'moral risk' when thej' insuie, and I
think you have a tight to take It Into
consideration here."
BIXLER IS A BAD ONE.
It Is Likely Tb nt There Isn't a Jail
Keeper Vncnucy.
In cleaning out the cell occupied by
Frank Blxler, who went down to the
penitentiary Wednesday, for burglariz
ing the Bogart residence, the county
Jail officials unearthed striking evi
dence of the fellow's desparately bad
chaiacter.
He had broken a twelve-Inch long
piece of lion from his bedstead, which
lie could use us a weapon If the mere
killing of a keeper or two presented an
opportunltj to escape, and from the
steel spilngs In tho soles of his shoes
he had fashioned a knife and a file,
with which he had loosened the bars
In the window of his cell so that all
that was required was a slight effort
to dislodge them There was evidence,
too, that he had attempted to escape
thiough this opening, as a prisoner did
a few years ago, but he found the
opening would not admit his 7'i head
When Blxler was being taken on the
train at the Jersey Central station he
hoped "that the blankety-blank train
would be wiecked and every one
aboard Killed " He didn't see his hopes
leallze, however. Instead he was safe
1 handed over to the care of Waiden
Casidj and will remain there for the
next si j eats and three months.

VISCAYA IN THE HARBOR
Concluded from Pace 1.
cd by tho Spanish commander to whom
he tendered, In the name of Admiral
llunco, the courtesies of the port, which
Is a formality whenever a foreign ves
sel arrives In Amerlcnn waters. Lieu
tenant Ward remained on board about
a quarter of an hour, nnd as he de
scended the gangway on his return to
the Undine, the roynl Spanish ensign
was put nt half mast. -This was tho
flrst sign that the spectators afloat and
ashore were given that tho visiting
craft was nware ot the disaster in
Havana harbor. Captain Eulete or
dered the Hag nt half mast as a token
of regret of tho death of the American
sailors. Meanwhile the marines who
were to take up the flrst watch were
taken on the Nina and the Narkeeta,
as were also four po'lc and a vuuneV
man. A row boat containing three men,
two of whom wer r.wlng pni tho
third sitting in the stern came out
from Tompklnsvlllo and headed direct
ly for the Vlscaja. The Nina Inter
c pted the little craft and in response
to inquiries the man In the stern said
that he had a telegraphic dispatch for
tl e commander of tho cruiser. When
this Information was transferred to
Captain Kulate the latter told Lleuten
rnt Doughtery to let the boat come
alongside, and also said that he would
Bee any newspaper reporters who
wished to come aboard. As soon as
this was made known to the press
boats, which were hovering around, a
number of newspaper men accepted the
Invitation, and In less than ten min
utes wore nil aboard plying questions
to the commander and officers of the
cruiser. While all this was taking
place the crowds on shore became larg
er and the keenest interest was taken
Ir every movement of the different ves
sels. THE PROTECTIVE! WATCH.
Lieutenant Dougherty will remain In
the vicinity of the cruiser while she ic
malns In port, and will direct the every
detail regarding the protective watch.
From 4 o'clock this afternoon until
midnight tonight tho Nina and Nar
keeta will patrol the waters in the
neighborhood of the big vessel. They
will be relieved at midnight by the
tugs Daniel S. Lamont and Scout In
command of Captains Thomas A.Kej-es
and T. P. Coffej". These boats are pro-vlde-1
by the supervhor of the port.
They will take on the police and mar
ine guards and lemiin on watch until
S o'clock tomorrow morning. At that
hour four police launches manned "by
policemen inrt marines will go on duty
and Btand bv until 4 tomorrow after
noon when tho naval tuss will take
up th same positions w hlch they as
sumed this afternoon. These are the
plans so far arranged bj' Lieutenant
Dougherty and tl.ey are not likely to
be changed. All the vessels mentioned
will remain oft Tompklnsvllle until the
Viscaya leaves her anchorage and
points out to tea. In case the cruiser
comes through the upper bay and an
chois In tho North river the jntrol
boats f.nd tugs will accompany her
and the same arrangements will main
tain. Captain Fulate said that while his
ship was in this port his officers would
accept nc Invitations of any kind The
Spanish warship had come here on a
visit that courtesy and riendshlp be
tween the dreadful accident to the
Maine was learned the Hugs weie put
at half-mast and theie they would te
maln until the ship took her departuie.
"o invitations of a social chaiacter
would be accepted this he wished to
have u"dei stood.
