ORDERS ARE DISODEYED Tho Regulars Refuse to Fire on the Orden Publico When Ordered to do so by General Arolns General So lano Acts ns PeacemakeY A Cowardly Attack Made Upon an Unarmed Member df tho Orden Publico Tho Society Dissolved. More Trouble Threatened. Havana, Nov. U (via Key West, Fla., Nov. 14.) The mutiny of the Orden Publico forces which for two days threatened the peace of this cltv, has lesulted In the dissolution of that body today when, after the payment of some arrears and tho promise of a (full liquid ation, the revolting Hoops laid down their arms. Captain General Blanco then ordered all tho foot and mounted leglments of the Orden Publico to be (Unbonded, that organization ceasing to ftxlst from this date. As originally planned, it was Intend ed that the mutiny should have ex tended to the Guardla Civil and the ar tillery regulars, and It would In that event have assumed much gtuver Im portance and might perhaps have In augurated a reign of terror and blood shed In the Island. For some time past the uprising of the troops in consequence of the non lecelpt of their pay has been feaied. Not only is their pay owing for months, and in some cases for years, but the reserve pay of the soldiers, their sav ings since tho date of their enlistment, which were looked upon by them at' sacred, have been appropriated or stolen, as the men bay, by the govern ment, which now turns n cleat ear to their protests. What amount this lesene pay reaches it is impossible to estimate, but it i" known that It aggiegutes millions. This Is what has been pieUpltating Hols, causing mutiny here, impelling tho men to insubordination at Neuvitos, and which may yet give rise to tuithei wldes?piead dlstutbanc.es In the island. AltOLAS BLAMED. The Havana mutiny which was started yesterday was precipitated by Gene-al Arolas, the military governor of the city, whose fierce temper and brutal treatment of ofllcers is the source of dally spreading discontent. t midnight on Wednesday General Arolas, at the head of a battalion of regular Infantry, having been nppristd of the intention of the troops to join In the mutltiv and demand their pay, siuprl.sed the nrtll lerv outposts, stationed along the Ved ado road. Including the Santa Clara and Relna Chorietea battel ies, dis armed them unci placed them under surveillance. The next morning (Tluusdaj) the third company of Olden Publico, num bering about 130 men, diew up before the captain general's place, cm the Plaza de Armusa, and demanded their overdue pay. The men were oideied to retire but refused. General Arolas who arrived on the scene almost slm-,- ultaneously. In an excess of lage, lifted his baton of otllee and savagely at tacked some of the onlookers, seiiously hurting a government emploje who had rushed out of the paluce fiom curiosity. ' By this time the Plaza de Arniasa wa.s filled with wildly excited ciowds who loudly condemned and cursed General Aiolas. At that period of the excitement, the Olden Publico with fixed b.ionuts, as sumed an attitude of deep hostility to waid General Aiolas, whom the men considered tesponslble for the dlsgraoe lul way In which they had been Heat ed. That moment Geneial Solano, Cap. tain General B'anco's chief of staff, appeared at the paluce door and com manded the attention of the men. He nddussed tem in u conciliate! y tone, upbiatded them for their Itisiibmdlna tlnn. and condemned the Ill-advised cniiisc they were pursuing 'OLANO A PHACn.MAKKIt. Then placing himself at their head Giuc-ial Solano hinie m niched the m ii back to their iiumters, whcio he again uddiossed them, pioinlslng them thej would lie paici Thin sda. The clay passed quietly without an further tin idem until dusk The mutinous Orden Publico had then learned that Geneial Aiolas had called over 4,000 legulaia In from the suburbs. Believing that Geneial Aiol as meant to dlsaim them, the Olden Publico again left their fii,irters, and lined up In the stieet opposite the iirinoiy, rcudy to offci leslstnneo If necessary. Shoitly after nightfall, Geneiul Aio las, at tho head of the reu'ulais nnd preceded by a band of music plajing nntlnn.tl alls, uirlvcd bcfoie th" Oiden Publico qiiarteis, wlieie he halted i.e fore him stood tho mutinous Thli.l company grim unci sullen. Timiinr to tho men Genual Arolas reminded them they were tngulais and veteiuns, not nicic policemen, iih thej had bem tauntingly refened to. The Olden Pub. ISco then truve three cheers for Spain and the army, which weio lustily tinaweted. To the di!'UHt of Geneial Aiolas, however, light on tho heels of these "vIvhb" the jcgulnrs cheered their coinwidea and tho Oidun I'ubllco an swered lu turn. Geneial Aiolus, mad with rage, or dered his men to charge, but thev ic fusod to obey. Ilu then oidered thorn to fire, which they also refused to do. General Aiolas then realised ho had lost hit moial Influence over Die men, And after calling the olllceia nsldo and conferring with them for a few min utes, ho loft for the palace, accom panied by his staff and seven ofllccis. A COWAHDLY ATTACK. About two blocks from tho scene of the mutiny General Arolas' party came upon un Innocent and unsuspecting member of tho Orden Publico who was unaimcd. Mnd with fury, General Aro lao drew his sword und savagely at tacked tho man, Inflicting on him sev eral wounds from which tho victim of the assault died this morning. In the mix-up Lieutenant Matt, Gen eral Arolas' ulde-de-t-atnp, had his head cut, supposedly by General Arolas' sword, as It wns tho only one drawn. Towards 11 o'clock General Aiolas1, who had been Informed that further uprisings had taken place among other companies of the Orden Publico, re turned to where he had left the troops and ordered them nway.leavlng n guard stationed in the building adjoining and facing the barrncks of the Olden Pub lico, who by this time had been per suaded by their own officers to with draw within their quarters. Towards midnight most of the regi ments of the Orden Publico, both env aliy and I nf tin try, throughout the city, had mutinied und turned out, fully armed, Into the street?. General Arolas, with the lcgulars, met them at the Calzacla del Montn, whole a tepetltlon of the earlier Inci dents occuired, tho troops again ic- f using to obey orders to flro when commanded to do so. A conference then took place be tween tho ofllcers and tho men, nnd the mutineers disbanded and retlied for the night. At 2 o'clock the following morning General Arolas ordeied tho troops to retire to their quarters and hold them selves In readiness for any emeigency. ORDEN PUBLICO DISBANDS. Tho palace was heavily guarded all night, nnd extreme ptecautlons were taken to deal with a possible general levolt. The night, however, passed without any further untoward Incident, biinglng about today, tho lesult be fore mentioned, namely, the disband ing of tho Orden Publico forces. The city today continues to bo pn ti oiled by logulars, who aie quui toted in the principal thoioughfares, patks and squaies of this clt. This uprising which has been settled on the only possible baMs, that of tush, affords a palpable lllustiatlon of the condition of affalis here and of the utter demoralization of even the army, whete the ofllceis have lost entlie con trol of the troops. Although tho pos sibility of further uprisings Is scouted among the military ntithcnltles, there Is reason to believe that trouble Is anticipated among the Guardla Civil, aitllleiy and even other regular foices, as proved by tho fact that the tioops continue to bo confined to their quai ters, and that the city of Havana Is pi actlially In a state of siege. Last nlsht the Guardla Civil out posts stationed at Aioyo Appollo, Jesus del Monte Calvailo and Managua, on the outsklits of Havana, numbering uliout "00 men. gave indications of an intention to follow tho example of the Orden Publico and tome to lb-- captain general's p.ilaee to make a tlcmonstta tlon against the withholding of their pay. Tho militurv ulithoijtles as u ine.ts uie of precaution, sent a battalion of leguhirs to the barracks, and a slmllnr piecautlon wns taken nt the Guardla Civil banacks in Havana, no communi cation between the two detachments being allowed. The United States and Spanish evac uation commissioner will hold a Jcdnt session on Wednesday moinlng to de termine definitely the limits regatdtng piopeity which the Spaniards may io move nnd dispose of. Colonel Llvermoie will sail for New York tomorrow by the Ward liner Scg niancu. Colonel Thompson and Colonel Ray will leave on Wednesday for Tampa. MRS. THATCHER'S REPORT.

TAHIiT Tho Washington Post Responsible) for the Statement No Extra Ses sion Mr. DIngley Interviewed. The Military Administration. Washington, Nov. 14. The Washing ton Post states that tho war tax will not bo nbollshed at the coming short session of congiess, and that theio will be no tevlslon of the tntlft whatever. It bases this announcement on tho positive stutement made today by Chairman Dingley, of tho ways and means committee, who, In un Inter view, s.ivs: "The government will need for some time all the revenue produced by tho war taxes. During the month of Octo ber the war expenditures exceeded tho war lcveliue by some $14,000,000, and this niuiith llic-y will be $10,000,000 in excess. This being the case theio will be no chantr at least this fiscal year. The war levenue net will continue in force and unchanged except perhaps In a few minor administrative fealuies for 'it It ns! n year longer. "It Is hardly necessary to add," con tinued Mr. DIngley. "that theio will be no revision of tho tariff, although I have seen some statement to the ef f'ct Hat such a tevlslon Is contem plated "The session Is limited to three months," continued Mr. DIngley, "and that shott period will be mainly oc cupied in passing the nppropilatlon bills, In enacting now laws for the icgular aimy nnd in deciding upon the legislation necessaiy for tho govern ment of Hawaii. In addition to tho!e important matters, the- usual number of toutine matters will arise. Fiom the picsent outlook the session will bo well under way bcfoie the treaty of peace with Spain will be laid befoto the sen ate, and the intitlcation of that docu ment may not be accomplished long befero the fourth of March arrives." NO i:XTRA SESSION. "Will that necessitate an extia ses sion" "It Is of course Impossible," said Mr. Plnglev, "to know what will nilse be tween tho Hi st of December and the fourth of next Maich. but so far ns tho picsent outlook t-nn form a basis for Judgment, I should suv that no extia session will be necessity or de nimble, unless some new question should ails" In the flist place we shall not know until the tte.ity in pe.ieo has been ratified what new pos sessions we aie to have and what leg lsbulon Is necessary for them, and even thn wo will lie in no position to act Intelligently. I think that tho milltniy aetminlstintion ought to be continued for nt least a year longer. Mllltaiy admlnlstt.itlon mean" thet maintenance of oidei, the establish ment of sanitary legulations, tho giv ing of assistance to those who may need It. It will biing older out of chaos and aflord us time to determine tho wisest legislation. Time always enlightens, and eeitnlnlv when con gi ess mets at Its regular Ee-stui in December of next jear we will be much better equipped to consider tho proper method of dealing with our new possessions. "For my p.lit," added Mr.. DIngley. "1 hope the tenltoiy to be added will b no laiger than Is absolutely ne cessary. I lenlize that In some cases It may bo easier to hold than It will bo to let It go, but at the same time 1 hope that the tietity when It l pie sented to th senate will piovide for the acquisition of a minimum amount of tenltoiy."

Iho flro of a jcar ago was caussd by this mime woman, who threw a lamp .it tt man with whom she had a quntrcl. A month ago she tried to burn her own place on Third avenue in Dawson by throwing u lamp tit a woman, nnd nearly caused a con flagration by rguln losing her temper nnd wielding i.nother lighted lamp.

All that icnialns to show where formerly forlv buildings stood ate a few black ened logs, and the town was saved from total destt notion by the flro en gine.

SPAIN WILL NOT AGREE WILL NOT CEDE PHILIPPINES ON OUR CONDITIONS. Unless Gi eater Compensation .Is Al lowed the Spanish Pence Commis sion Will Break Off Its Negotia tions Joint Session Postponed Until Wednesday The President Expects Pence to Be Concluded Substantially When Congress Meets. Pari", Nov. 14. It has been decided that there will bo no Joint session ot the peace commissioners today Sec retary Moore, of the United States commission, received fiom Secietary OJcda, of the Spanish commission, this morning a note saying thut the Span ish commissioners hnd found It Impos sible to prepare their memoiandum for presentation todtiv, nnd asking If the United States) commissioners would bo Inconvenienced If, owing to the late ar rival from Mudild of expected data, the Spaniards should request that the next meeting be deferred until Wednes day. Secretary Moote replied that the Ametlcan commissioners weie quite ready to accommodate the Spanish com missioner In this matter and tho joint selon was practically deferred until Wednesday next. Importance is attached to this delay, It being legal ded as Indicating that the Spanish commlssloneis arc prepailng for a Until stand In these negotiations, and It may now be definitely announced that the Spanluids hete will not sign a tienty of peace which yield1) to Spain no mote from tho Philippine Islands than has thus far been offeied or In dicated by the Americans. ATTITUDE OF SPANIARDS This attitude of the Spaniards Is ex plained by the fact that the members of the Snanlsh commission have polit ical alliances and personal io.ponsl bllitles to constituencies and the na tional creditors of Spain which lestrlct them to ceitnln lines, which are as far us the ministry nt Maelild eaies to go. It Is pointed out thut If the live Span ish commission?! g here signed a tieaty v hiding the Philippine Islunds to the I r.llcc. htutes without lessening Spain's debt lie an nppieclable degiee they could not i etui n home with the pros pect of nny political futuie before them anil possibly would be In danger of violence at the hands of mobs At the ne't meeting of the commis sions the Americans will leatn the def inite attitude of Spain on any pioposl- tlon thus fat mude. The Snanluids, how over, In this piesentatlon will not decline ull negotiations closed. They will Insist that the soveieignty of Spain over the Philippine Islands is beyond question but will announce Spain'. I readiness to jield that soveieignty tor an adequate equivalent and will then invite negotiations under the Spanish eonstiuetion of the pi oleic ol. The Aniei Ic.ui eommissioneis mnj then commun icate their final attitude to the Span lards, but the Americans ate expect ed, at u f unite meeting, to pie-sent a can-fully piep.ned conclusion of their contention and conditions Should they be no dlffeient from those p'rejudv pioseiitcd, the t'me will then have ur lived when Sipalu will de-daie herself helpless though steadfast, nnd will uvvall the net step of the L'nlted States, vvhiilcvt-i It may be. Thus Spain will be lib! to say to hei eiedltoiH that she has done her utmost and that the Issue must test between t'.ietn and the United States. SUGAR WILL BE HIGHER.

Hong Kong., Nov. II. The Filipino Junta, tcpiesentatlves of Geneial Agulnaldo and the Filipino government here, have drawn up what they desig nate as tin "appeal to President Mc Klnley and the Anieile-an people," but what Is lu leallty lather In the njtuie of an niinlgnmcnt of Ametlcan ac tions In the Philippines. John Hanett, foimer United States minister to Slam, was asked by tho Junta to present the memorial to the United Stutes government and people. Mr. Hanett leplled that, while ho could have no ofllclnl Influence regarding the status of the matter, ho was satisfied that a document which lepicsented the sentiments of the Filipinos would ie-e-elvc nt the hunt! of the Americans all the consideration It merited. The memorial says: "Wo, the Hong Kong tcpiesentatlves of oui countiymen, appeal to the great and good judgment ot President Mc Klnley and the sphit of fulrness and Justice of the American people as It Is always shown in their leg.ud for the petitions of the weak und oppressed "While the fate of the Islands Is still undecided, and we au- doing ull In our power to pi event a conflict between the Amei leans and Filipinos awaiting patiently the conclusion of the Paris coiifeieiiee we 'lmploio the interven tion of the- pte-sldent, suppoited by tho will of tho people to end the slights shown our leudeis, soldiers und peo ple by some ot the Ameilean mllltaiy and naval olllceis, although we do not wIMi lo wiong Adinlial Dewey or Gen eial Otis." The niemoiial then aveis that "falso icpoits aie sjuoad bioadcast, alleging that the Filipinos me responsible for all the fi lotion," and that "the ten sion Is gi eater evety day, and any moment a shot may be fired by un irresponsible Ameilean or Filipino sol dier, leading to gieut bloodshed," and beseecli "the Cultc-d States." to help tl e junta to "c-ontiol our own people by dlieetlng AnietUtin ollleials at Manila to temper theli actions with filcnd lup, justice und fullness."

After asserting that the Filipinos mi itotmly acted on the advice of the Americans and were Infoimally le-cog-nlzed by them until Manila was cap ful eel, the niemoiial goes on to sa "We can only uttiihulc this sudden change to oiders fiom Washington to American ofllcl.il 4 at .Manila to avoid compromising the Ameilean govern ment by n lecognltlon of the Filipinos or their government.
