Cuba's Insurrection Increasing: in Im portance Every Day. INSURGENTS HOLD THEIR INTERIOR And Have Succeeded in Cutting Sown the Revenue of the Spanish Government From Cuban Sources About Eighty Per Cent. Havana, .Inn. 15. Kxcittng nows from tho front wns received yesterday in nshnpo which prevented Its accuracy from bjing denied. Tho sound of continued artillery tiring was heard south of Hlncou, not far from lloj ucal, tho town that wns attacked by tho Insurgents on Monday with tho re sult that, according to tho olllclnl state ment of tiio affair, tiioy were forced to re treat after a llorco reslstnnco on tho part of the government foreos, tho battlo lust ing, It Is claimed, llvu hours. But It Is ad mitted that tho Insurgents plundered stores in tho outlying district of Uojucal, burned a number of houses and destroyed tho railroad depot by llro. Previous to this tiioy had burnod tho town of Snlud, quite fi good sized place, nd partly destroyed Qulvicau, a smaller place. They varied tlloso operations wltli burning freight trains and destroying rail road engines as they pushed northwurd and towards Havana. This force of Insurgents is tho ono sup posed to bo commanded by Gomez in per son, although it has boon insisted that Ho Is still In tho provlnco of Plnnr del Hlo. nnd that ho was In conflict with Spanish troops commanded by Gonoral Linares. It Is bcllovcd that an Important engagement is taking place, and further continuation is anxiously oxpectod. Conllrmatlou has been received of tho report from tho eastern provinces that tho Insurgent lenders Itabl.Jose Maceo.Chongo Illvero nnd others, at tho head of strong forces from tho province of Puerto Principe, believed to bo much better armed than any previous forces, and to have been reinforced by filibustering expeditions, containing numbers of Americans, are moving eastward, nppnrcntly with tho in tontion of reinforcing the lnsurgonts now oporatiug In tho neighborhood ot Havana. Those tusurgont forces are said to havo moved Into tho Homodloi district. The prcsenco of tills additional forco of insurgents, moving througli tho province of Sunta Clara and in the direction of tho provlnco of Matanzas, will naturally pro vent tho Spanish oommanders from send ing Into tho Havana district all tho troops thoy lntondod to draw from Santa Clara and Matanzas with tho intention of driv ing tho lnsurgonts now In this vicinity into tho provlnco of Pluar del Itlo west ward until thoy were nil placed in a po sition where thoy could bo either extermi nated or forced to surrender. Tho captain general has boon forced to meet this movo by sending back towards Santa Clara several columns of troops which wore on thoir way through tho province of Matanzas toreluforco his foroos In this vicinity. Tho insurgents, it is bo- llovcd, will thus bo ablo to continue for soino time longer thoir almost unchcoked operations, and If tho Spanish generals nro not ablo to prevent a junction oi nil tho Insurgent forces now In this vicinity tho situation will becomo more critical. Estimating that tho Insurgents now have about 15,000 men, more or less woll armed, in this vicinity, and that thoy are reinforced by say 10,000 more well armed men from tho eastward, Gomoz will, friends of his causo say, hnvo undor his command qulto a fair slzod army, nnd should bo ablo, all things fairly favorable, to tako tho otTonslvo oven against a strong force of Spanish troops defending Ha vana. Hut these are views taken by tho friends of tho lnsurgonts, and nro dirootly at variance with thoso of tho Spanish of ficials, who olalm that tho second Cuban army, advancing from tho east under Itnbl and Joso Maooo, does not number and will never number 5,000 mon. In any caso It doos not seem posslblo to deny that tho insurrection Is Increasing in lmportauco every day. Practically the whole interior of the island, from oast to west, with tho oxoeption of tho largo towns, Is. in possession of tho lnsurgonts, who havo burned ovcrythlug combustlblo nnd have lovied tribute right and loft, under tho very noses of the Spanish com manders, nnd cutting down tho revonuo of tho Snaulsh government from Cuban sources nbout 80 porcont., according to tho insurgents' ostlmntes. unucr tneso condt tlons it Is not astonishing that. some chungo In tho commnndershlp of tho Span lsh forces Is expocted dally. Kvcn tho most Intimate friends of General Campos do not claim that ho has boon halt successful In his operations. Tho insurgent cavalry Is vastly superior, both in number ami quality, to thnt of tho Spaniards, and tho military exports ns sert that tho Importation of 3,000 or 4,000 Spanish cavalry Iroin Spain will lu no way affect tho situation, as tho Spanish horses cannot stand the climnto. The weak point of tho Cuban army is Its ar tillery, but thoy liopo shortly to bo able to mako a very much better showing In that respect, as thoy expect suppllos of. rapid llro guns, indeed rrlonus ot tho insurg ents hero assert that qulto number of rapid fire guns recently cumo Into tho pos session of General Gomez, and thoy were landed not very fur from Havana at that. It is announced that on bunday last the Spaniards mado an important capture in the person of Joso L'epero, tho second in command of the Cuban column com manded by General Rogo. Cepero was on his way from Cionfuegos, in the provlnco ot Santa Clara, to llutabano, tho port south of Havana, with Important com munications from tho Santa Clara Insur gents to Gomuz and Maceo. Tho insur gent leader was traveling on tho Spanish steamship Gloria under tho namo of Lo renzo Dupuy, and had papers upon him in that name to show that he wns an Ameri can citizen traveling In Cuba on business.

Tho bond silver bill was further considered In tho seuuto yesterday, but without appreciable up pninch to n conclusion of tho debate Mr. Uutlcr, of North Cnrollnn, spoko for 'two Sr of tho session brought out an extended con- i troversy over pension discriminations. Mr. Lodgo sought to pass to bill grant ing a pension of $T5 per mouth to tho I widow of General Cogswell, t''.t lie.

Tho house spent tiio day In further do nate on tho pension appropriation bill, l'ho speakers with a single exception were nil Republicans, and all favored a liberal administration of tho pension laws and tho adoption of thochangesto existing law proposed by tho hill. Among tho speakers was General John A. Walker, who served in tho Confederate army. lie is tho only Republican representative from Virginia. Mr. Cummlngs, of New York, created a mild sensation by a severe arraignment ot tho pension ofllco for Inutility to the old soldier. The Contest Tor the Democratic Convention. WA6HISOTON. .Ian. 15.

The Republi can primary eloctlon was held last night, and was ono of tho most blttor political contests that lias been fought In this city for a number of years. The adherents of benntor Quay, under tho lcadershio of Sen ator Penrose and ex-Magistrate Durham, opposed Mayor Warwick, Stuto Senator Porter and David Martin, and tho fight was principally for tho control of tho now city committee nnd for representatives to the state convention that will namo tho Pennsylvania delegation to tho national convention. Tho returns are slow in coming in, and this morning both sides claim to have won. The vote Is undoubtedly vory closo, nnd present Indications are that tho Quay forces havo won. The fight wns most bitterly contested In Mayor Warwick's ward, the Fifteenth, and rosultod in that official losing. Both tho Twenty-eighth and Thirty-second warns were lose By Senator Porter. The greatest Interest was manifested by citizens In the olectlon, and an unusually heavy voto for a primary election was polled. A number of disturbances were reported from various parts of tho city, but nono are bolloved to huve resulted seriously. Kcmlrlrk IIouo Vrvo Lunch. Hoston Ilaked Iicans to-night. Fell Down a Slope.

Moves, Mgr, the NOMINATE NEXT TUESDAY. - - - Thai i- TJnfni rrli fintunllAH Will 1,. wi a on tin 23rd lust. Nominations by the Citizens Party Will bo Mode on the 2 1th Inst. I hi-1. ite upon which tho Citizens party v i .ts primaries is les limn ten days ilv.li', ii, mil the interest manifested in it in most quarters is comparatively tamo. It is no more quiet than affairs on tho Demo crats side of the house, however, and con sitlerabht sawing of wood In silenco may be gulug on in the ranks of both parties. To anyono who has given tho situation any thought it must appear that the quietude on the part of tho Citizens party Is in a great nieusti lo born of apathy and on tho Demo cratic sldo it is part of a scheme to surprise and storm. Tho latter party is well organized, armed with tho "sinews of war," and so much on the alert that it Is Improbable that anything which may occur will provo a sur prise to it. 1 lie Democrats have scented every dlsatlectioii in the Citizens party througli l.uthlul and able eniissirios and by the shrewdest of methods have irritated old sores and tried to create animosity where the party has appeared united. It will bo their endeavor this spring to cause tiio Citizens to slow each other. Every question in Council manic and School Hoard affairs on which tho Citizens may havo been divided in opinion, no matter how slightly, will bo resurrected, magnified and distorted in tho hope that dis content may bo stirred upand, if possible, the lights at the Citizens primaries may be so hot that tho defeated ones will forget fealty to party and self interest to such an extent as to bo blindly led into "independent" move ments and possibly placo Citizens strongholds within reach of tho Democratic party. Tills is one of the reasons why tho Demo crats aro so hopeful. Some of them havo Intentionally allowed slips of the tongue, in furtherance of their scheme, to lead people to be iovo that thero are Internal disturbances in their ranks. There aro no such disturb ances this year. The Democrats aro within springing distance of many of tho places in winch the Citizens consider themselves secure, and unless tho latter stir themselves thoy will be out-generalled at many im portant points at tho Spring election. Contraiy to expectations the Democrats have decided to hold their primaries before tho Citizens primaries tills year. This was decided ativ meeting hold last night and will bo very satisfactory to the Citizens, who havo been complaining that the Democrats have always managed to hold their primaries last. Oilici.il notice has been given by 11. J. Mul doon, chairman, and Justice Jere. Toomey, secretary of tho Standing Committee, that tho DcmocRitic primaries will be held on Tues day evening, 21st inst., and theconfciees will meet to nominate the boiough ticket on Thursday evening, SSJrd inst. Tho Citizens Standing Committee also met last night aud received tho names of addi tional peoplo who will bo candidates for nom ination before tho primaries. William T.
