AND THE LATTER HAS ACCEPTED It Is Believed That tho Policy of the Now Commander Will be One or Brutal Annihilation More Alleged Spanish Victories. Havana, Jan. i.U A dnputcli from Madrid nuiiounco that (jpiicral Valeriana Weyler Inn accepted tha appointment to tho governorship of Cuba, ami will sail for tho Island on Friday next. General Suarci Vuldeslms been appointed second In com mand. Gouornl l'olavioja, vrhoho namo had been mentioned us tho probable suc cessor of General Campos, had n confer euoo on Saturday with tho president of tho council of ministers, Senor Canovns del Castillo, nt Madrid. Tho goncral oxprossod himself as favoring tho appointment; of General Valorlano Weyler as captain gen-! oral, and In cousequunco tho latter was lent for. uu Saturday Goncral Campos, who will return Immediately to Spain, sent tho fol lowing telegram to Seuor Castillo: "I consider your telegram us an order, but I ought to state that I havo not given my resignation. I havo no sonso of failure I am tho first to congratulato tho govern ment upon Its decision, which, perhaps, will nvort disagreements which do not affect mo and yet might bo hurtful to Spain." Thero Is to bo no change In tho policy of tho government, It is announced, as tho result of tho recent changos in tho execu tive olllcors. It Is also assorted that po litical reforms will bo Inaugurated us soon as tho progress of tho war will allow. No further specifications are given as to what tho contemplated reforms aro or how far they will extend. On Saturday Colonol Galblo fought tho forces of tho insurgents which havo been in Plnar dal Hlo at Pozo Heilamlo, north of Batabuno, and on tho railroad botweou that point ami Havana. It is said that tho Insurgent forces wore those of Gomez. Tho troops met tho attack of tho Insur gents on their knees, and withhold their llro until tho enemy was within a short distance. Tho report says that tho insur gents left cloven killed on tho Hold, and nine mora wera found In a cano Hold a short distance away. Tho Spanish artil lery did good oxocutlon. Tho Insurgents rotroatod, It Is reported, with a numorous loss, whllo tho loss of tho troops -was In significant. Although tho report statos that Gomez was repalsod and dofoated It Is reported that ho moved afterwards south of Molona upon Gulna3 and in tho direction of tho vlllago of San Nicolas. Thoso points aro eastward of tho military lino of Batabano and would indicate that Gomez was suc cessful lu his attempt to broak through tho lino which had been established to keep tho lnsurgonts in tho Yuolta Abajo district. During Saturday's operations Gomez in vaded Bario and Pueblo Nuovo, within the limits of Plnar dol Illo. Tho garrison mado a horolo dofonso, tho colonol taking part In tho battlo, and upon bolng charged with tho bayonoc tho insurgents nro re ported to havo retreated with a numorous loss. Tho troops lost tunc Gomez Is now proceeding In tho direc tion of Clonagado 55aputa,tho great swamp In tho southern part of Matanzas, for tho purposo, It Is supposed, of awaiting n junction thoro of tua forces which nro ad vancing from tho eastern provinces. A report comes from Santa Clara that tho insurgent band of Alberto and Pastor Bejas, which Is a part of a force from the eastern provinces winch iunximo uomoz ordered to tho relief of tho lnsurgonts In tho west, has mado an unsuccessful at tempt to break through tho military lino of La Trochn. This baud camo from Plo cetas.and thoy attacked tho Spanish forces near Las Cruces, on tho railroad running between Clonfuogoa and Sagua La Grango, which approximately marks tho La Trocha military lino. The Insurgents also nttaeked a fort on tho plantation of Constancla in tho Cionfuogos district, and, It Is said, wore repulsed with a loss of six killed. Tho column of Major Cedono fought tho bund of Loonclo Vldal on tho plantation of Natalia, lu the district of Sagua, the in surgents losing eight killed and live taken prlsouors, whllo tho troops lost ouo killed and ono taken prisoner. In Havana province tho lnsurgonts at tacked a Spanish dotaolimont at tho plan tation of Avorhoff, near Aguacato, and are reported to have boon rupulsod with heavy loss. . Tho troops had two killed and six wounded. A truln from Nuevltas, In tho province of Santiago do Cuba, was dynamited by tho Insurgents and the engine destroyed. I A largo foreo of tho Insurgents, consist ing of tho bands of Ilabt and Joso Maoen, passed tho vlllago of Manjuarl yesterday. Tho Insurgents havo burned tho railroad station at Cuobos, only a fow miles from Matanzas. Tho mayor of tho vlllago of Sun Nicolas has been hanged by tho Insurgents. Tho station nt San Cayetauo, in Havana province, has been burned. TII13 XHWfl III WASHINGTON. Seuor ruliim Declarer It Is an Argument for Cuban Itecogiiitton, Wasiiisoton, Jan. 20. Tho announce ment of tho appointment of General Val erlauo Woylor as civil captain goncral of Cuba was rocolvod at Cuban headquarters horo as confirmatory of tho viov they had already expressed upon the now of Cam pos' rotlroniout, that thoro has been a rad ical chaugo lu tho policy of tho Spanish cabinet, and that henceforth thero Is to bo a reign of blood and terror In Cuba. Tho change lu tho oubluet, Itself, In tho retirement of tho Dukoof Totuau, and tho succession of Senor Elhuayon as minister of foreign affairs, Is regarded as still furthor confirming this Idea. Genoral Weyler Is a veteran soldlor and has hod his own experience In revolutions, for he followed the fortunes of the Spoulah army In Cuba for veara durimr the last revolu. tion, with the rank of ooluud, and earned for himself a dreadful reputation as a man of blood and iron. Senor Pnlmu, tho representative in tho United State of the Cuban revolutionary party, speaking of the superseding of Campos, said: "This action on tho part of tho Spanish government Is not wholly unexpected. General Campos Is ono of Spain's most famous commanders, and at tho begin ning of tho revolution ho said that In n few wccki, or at most but n few months, ho would surely crush out tho robelllon, but now, after elovon months, ho has been obliged to shut himself up in Havana, at tho very door of tho cupltol, unublo to eopo with tho ndroltnoss and skill of tho conimandcr-ln-chlef of the revolutionists. "Tho Spanish govornmentthlnkthnt by tho substitution of nuothor goncral thoy will meet witli better succoss. General Campos' withdrawal from command, lu my opinion, Is becauso tho officials at Mad rid considered his treatment of tho Cubans as too humano. Thoy want n policy ol moro cruelty pursued. "Nothing short of independence can quell tho spirit of tho Cubans. Their strength cannot bo weakened, and 200,000 men would bo put into tho field nt onco if thoy could bo properly armed. It seems to me, and I believe it will so nppear to tho American public, that the mere fact f Spain being compelled to change gon cruls at tills period of tho war should demonstrate tho strength of tho revolu tionists and hasted tho tlmo when the United States shall recognize us." Iterances from Cuba. TAMPA, Kin., Jan. 20. Tho steamer Olivotto last night brought forty-live refugees from Cuba and Saturday night landed 130 lu Koy West. Threo hundred refugees uro already booked for tho noxt trip. Tho refugees say that If ono does not participate lu tho revolution they must leavo Cubaor join the Spanish forces. Thoso able to leavo are doing so, but tho loss fortunate will join tho revolution and greatly swell tho Cuban army. General Martinez Campos Is expected by the noxt steamer to return to Spain through tha states and New York. Thero Is some talk hero of giving General Campos on ovation when ho arrives.

The Duefltlnn of Ilocognlzliig Cuban Insur gents May Boon be llrouglit Up. Washington, Jan. 20. Tho presont in dications are that tho time of tho sonnto will bo dlvldod this week between tho dis cussion of flunncos and tho Monroe doc trine, tho latter to bu based upon tho Da vis resolution and tho former on the free colnago substitute for tho house bond bill. Several senators, Including Toller, Danlol, Cookroll and White, will speak on tho sil ver bill during tho week, nnd tho proba bilities aro that tho consideration of tho bill will not be concluded -whou tho end of tho wek is reaehod. No vote will bo so cured until tho Utah sountors take their scats, but It will come goon after that tlmo. Tho silver substitute has prccedonco over nil other matters each day at 3 o'clock, thus rendering it lnrj isslbloto takoup the Monroo resolution oxcept during tho morn ing hour, unless by general consont. Sen ator Pugh will today try to secure a vote on his resolution for tho payment of gov ernment obligations In coin instead of gold alone, but his success In that direc tion is doubtful. Tho tariff bill will bo reported during tho week If Senator Jones, of Nevada, gives his consent. The house will devote tho week to tho consideration of tho appropriation bills unless n movo is made to recognlzo the Cubans as belligerents. It Is quite prob able that tho question may bo presonted to tho house in some shape. Tho oommltteo ou foreign affairs lias as yet proposed no resolution on the subject, but thero aro many indications that tho whole question will bo considered in tho house before long, Tho urgent deficiency and military academy appropriation bills, which nro ready, go to niuko up the regular work for the week.
