KfcY West, Fla., Dee. 31, 12:30 p. m. Much oxcilemont was occasioned bore to-day among tho Cuban sympathizers, when tho information was given out that General Maceo, the Cuban leader, was still alivo. Tho information Is authentic, and comes from 110 less a reliable sourco than the wife of tho patriot Cuban, Colonel Mirabel. She arrived hero from Havana, and says sho comes direct from the insurgent camp, where sho has been In attendance at Maceo's bedside. Tho further information is furnished that, although Maceo recoived Serious wounds, ho will surely recover, and will soon again tako the field against llio Spaniards. It is now known through tho same advices that Maceo was betrayed and shot by Dr. Zertucha. Tho latter had tho complete con fidence of Maceo and was awaro of tho nature of all tho correspondence and orders that passed through tho hands of tho in surgent leader. It Is also known that Dr. Zertucha not only betrayed Maceo into tho bauds of tho Spaniards and disclosed tho location of tho Cuban hospital, but that ho gave information of tho fitting out of tho Threo Friends' expedition, which so nar rowly escaped destruction by a Spanish gun boat at tho mouth of tho San Juan river. When Maceo received word as to tho land ing potiit for tho expedition, he confided the news to Dr. Zertucha and others of his stair. At tho earliest opportunity the traitor com municated this information to tho Spaniards, and tho gunboat and launch (wero secretly dispatched to tho rendezvous to flflj in wait. Tho rage against Dr. yrvbt'VJ growing constantly since it lify?l,cc Vp4ity learned that ho betrayed an"- HlrL UTlie for mor is still in concealment ai.d is fully awaro of tho peril in which ho stands should he be discovered. Tho news that Maceo is still alive, and that ho will recover, has caused much grati fication. Tho statement of tho wife of the insurgent, Colonel Mirabel, Is looked upon as tho first authentic Information yet received in reference to Macoo. expectant throngs of applicants and their friends.
