Four hundred and fifty marines were sent to Clen fuegos Sunday night by rail as a precaution, news having been re ceived by Governor Taft that fight ing was liable to occur between the insurgents and the rural guards and militia.

The first landing of any consider able number of Americans took place Sunday night, when 450 marines came ashore from the squadron in the harbor. This force proceeded for Clenfuegos at 9-o'cIoek on a spec ial train. It was explained that this movement was not made on account of any actual trouble In Clenfuegos, but for the purpose of exerting a calming influence on the local situ ation, which contains some possibili ty of a conflict by reason of the tense feeling existing between the govern ment volunteers and the Insurgents. The battleship Kentucky arrived. The Indiana, with two colliers, is expected. The Texas, Prairie and Brooklyn are expected in a few days.

The day at the palace passed quiet ly and rather gloomily. There are as yet no signs or Sec retary Taft's actual occupancy of that edifice, which Sunday was the scene of a number of farewells to ex-President Palma and his family. The members of the diplomatic corps and the foreign consuls called in a body to say good-by. The Funston commission and the revolutionary commission have agreed that the horses captured or seized by the rebels might bo kept, but the Cubans raised a point about the arms, which General Funston re fused to concede, ihey wish to keep the arms, which are the private prop erty of some of their men, arguing that they bought these arms with their own money and have always kept them in their houses. The arms were used for hunting doer and other purposes. A largely attended meeting of rebels was held Sunday nt General Ashbert's camp, near San Francis co de Paula. Senor Zayas made an appeal to the men to lay down their arms. Juan Gualberto Gomez and General Ashbert also spoke.

He expressed the be lief that the stability of the govern ment was now assured and predicted that never again would there be n revolution in Cuba, thanks largely to the United States government for the hand It bnd taken in the settle ment of the difficulty. While mnny of his men wanted to parade In Havana before dispersing, their commanders regarded this as unnecessary, and General Guerra said there would be no demonstra tion that would permit of the possi bility of a renewal of the previous 111 feeling. Asked whether his men shared his contentment, General Guerra said: "The men under our commands will obey us. Those who do not cer- j tainly never were with us.

Over 60 big steamers and sailing vessels wrecked; big iron steamers driven through buildings a mile from the water front. The Navy yard is badly dam aged and several gunboats un dergoing repairs there are said to be beached. Montix. Loss of life estimated at from B to 50. Property loss over $3,000, 000. Revenue cutter Alert and several steamers sunk. Velocity of wind 90 miles an hour. City placed under martial law. Pensacola, Fla. (Special). The worst hurricane to visit this city in Its history raged here furiously all Thursday night and Friday morning and with a gale still blowing, the city presents a wrecked appearance and the damage is estimated at $5,000,- 000. The loss .of life will be heavy among the mariners, but so far only one body has been recovered, a man named George Morgan, a fisherman. Other bodies are reported along the shore, but have not been recovered. Commencing at 7 o'clock, the wind blew at 50 miles for three hours, then increased to 63 miles. From that time until 5 o'clock A. M.. it re mained about 80 and 90 miles an hour. The tides from the bay backed Into the city for blocks, destroyed homes and making rivers out of streets. When the gale was at Its highest, women and children were running frantically about the streets in dark ness, the alarm of fire was sounded and this added to the confusion. The fire started in the Pitt Mill, near the business district, and horses of the fire department refused to go out in the weather. With the tin roofs flying about them: trees and wires falling over them the firemen took their hose wagons by hand and rushed down the streets to the scene. and after hours of work controlled the blaze. War Vessels May lie Lost. No communication can be had with the navy yard, but it is believed that the yard has been badly damaged. A number of warships were there. The vessels there undergoing re pairs were the gunboats Vixen, Ma- chlas, Isla de Luzon and Gloucester, besides several smaller craft and the quartermaster's steamer Poe. They were in an exposed position, and it is feared they may have been beached. Of the 50 or 60 big steamers and sailing vessels lying in the harbor only 5 or 6 are there now. They have been driven ashore, and along the water front is a mass of wreck age of steamers, tow boats, launches and sailing craft of all descriptions. Thirty fishing vessels in port have been destroyed or damaged, and the three big flshhouses, with their wharves, are gone. Muscogee wharf and the Commandancla and Tarra gona wharves of the Louisville Rail road are badly damaged. Great iron ships of 2,000 and 3,000 tons have been driven not only ashore, but have gone through houses a block from the water front. Thieves Busy Amid Wreckage. Every house along the water front for a distance of 10 miles has been destroyed, and the wonder Is that the loss of life is not greater. Every business house from the wharf, on Palafox Street, to the Union Depot, has been unroofed, many plate-glass windows broken, stocks badly damaged and wires and poles all mixed up together. There are no electric-light, car, telegraph or telephone service. Added to the horror of the situa tion is the thieves, who are breaking open trunks all along the beach, en tering unoccupied hous?s and steal ing everything in sight. Several ar rests have been made, but It Is im possible to protect property under such conditions. Medal Of Honor Legion. Winsted, Ct.

A GREAT FEAT n BOSSES The Pennsylvania Railroad's Tunnol in Washington. STATIONS AT THE OFFICE BUILDINGS. Completion of an Important Fea ture Connected With the Con struction of Terminals There Separate Bores for Trains Going in Each Direction. Washington, D. C. (Special). Tho great tunnel of the Pennsylvania Railroad that runs under Capitol Hill, between the Cnpltol and the Congressional Library, was finished Thursday. It was Intended that President Cassatt. of the Pennsyl vania Railroad, and some of the of ficials of the company, should be taken through the tunnel. But, ow ing to Mr. Cassatt's illness, the plan was abandoned. The tunnel is about four-fifths of a mile Ions:, and is about 80 feet below the surface of the street on Capitol Hill. Of all tho many engineering feats involved In the construction of the new terminals of the ' Pennsylvania Railroad, the building of this tunnel was regard ed with most apprehension. Con gress cheerfully gave its consent to the building of miles of solid mason ry walls and steel bridges over the streets, and all the other details of the great work, but committees of the House and Senate were in ses sion more than a year hearing the engineers of the Pennsylvania Rail road and other expert testimony be fore they were finally convinced that a tunnel could be built under the plaza between the Capitol and the Library without endangering eithor of those massive buildings. The work was begun In December, 1903, at New Jersey Avenue and D. Streets, Southeast, from which point to B Street the work was done in open cut. Here the actual tunneling com menced. Four drifts, two upper and two lower levels, Just large enough for two men to work, were pushed forward and the timbering emplaced. As the timber ftrch wns formd great shovels, operated by compressed air, dug out the core, tho material being hauled away on cars. The tunnel is known as a "twin" tunnel, so called because it couslsts of two parallel tubes, separated by a masonory wall, thus making each tube an individual tunnel, contain ing a single track. ThiB not only eliminates the danger of collisions since trains in the west tube are southbound and those In the east tube are northbound, but it will mako traveling far more comfortable slnco the trains In each tube, going only one wny, will clear the tunnel of the gases and the smoke by the cur rent created by the train's motion. The work of building the parallel tubes was hindered by many serious difficulties, first of which was tho presence of water and quicksand, but by the exercise of care and engineer ing skill, all these difficulties were finally surmounted and today tho tunnel men turned the tunnel over to the track layers for their work. The tunnel cost $2,000,000. Where it approaches the corner of B Street and North Capitol a tunnel will be built to a station in the subcellar of the office building of the House of Representatives, so that representa tives coming from New York or other cities on tho Pennsylvania can go di rectly to their offices in the building from their train. A similar tunnel will be built to the building that is now being constructed for suites of of fice rooms for the Senate nt the other end of the Capitol plaze. MCRDKRED IN INSANE ASYIXSI.

Dismayed at these expressions of the Governor-General, the municipal officials suggested that the victims were mostly defenseless inhabitants, who were not concerned in the revo lution, to which General Kaulbars re plied that he regrtied that this wa the case, but must say that tho population was thus punished for tol erating revolutionists among them instead of delivering them to Justice. I do not think there will be fresh outbreaks," said Governor General Kaulbars, "but In the event of the assassination of even ono member of the League of the Russian People, Odessa will be inundated In blood." The deputation thereupon retired. The tone of Governor - Getieral Kaulbars' speech, which is regarded as an open expression of approval of the horrors of counter revolution, hat created much alarm.
